Chief Direction: Nishizawa Nobutaka

Music: Sugiyama Kouichi
A long time ago there was a master sword fighter who challenged Satan in a fight to the death. The hero along with his team finally won the battle. All the monsters who were once controlled by Satan were released from his control and began to live peacefully in a forest where no humans live. This place is the southern island of Delmorin.

When Dai was a baby, he managed to survive a ship wreck and drifted to this island. Being raised by a monster, Grandpa Brus, young Dai dreams of becoming a great hero. Grandpa Brus, on the otherhand, thinks different and wants him to become a magician who will support the hero. Either way, Dai's in for some pretty big adventures.

It's a normal day on the island, that is, until a ship shows up. Disguised as a team of heroes, these fakes manage to wreck havoc on the island, slaying many of the friendly monsters, and steal one of Dai's best monster friends, Gome-chan. Gome-chan is a very rare breed type of monster and is worth a lot of money in the market. It's up to Dai to try to save him.

· fast-pacedHold onto your hats, this anime`s storyline is relentless. The characters don`t get time to take a breath as events keep both them and the viewer on a roller coaster ride of revelation and excitement! Hopefully it all makes sense... weightless
· actionAction anime usually involve a fairly straightforward story of good guys versus bad guys, where most disputes are resolved by using physical force. It often contains a lot of shooting, explosions and fighting.
· · calling your attacksIf you can do something more impressive than just throw a punch, your attack(s) must have an equally impressive name. More than that, you have to call it out as you launch the attack. It doesn`t matter if it`s a martial arts move, a magical spell or your secret superweapon, if you can`t say its name, it just isn`t nearly as cool or effective. weightless
· · fightingFor some reason or other one faction has to take it out on some opponent via fight or battle. Typical examples of this are all the anime with "endless pointless fighting" tag. weightless
· comedyAnime whose central struggle causes hilarious results. These stories are built upon funny characters, situations and events. A comedy anime is laced with humour and sets out to provoke laughter from the audience. Japanese humour can be a bit strange to westerners, so if you`re new to this type of humour, just bear with it; it`ll most likely grow on you if you`re a fan of other kinds of comedy. **
· speculative fictionSpeculative fiction is an umbrella genre encompassing fiction with certain elements that do not exist in the real world, often in the context of supernatural, futuristic or other imaginative themes. This includes, but is not limited to, science fiction, fantasy, superhero fiction, horror, utopian and dystopian fiction, fairytale fantasy, supernatural fiction, as well as combinations thereof.
· · fantasyImaginative or fanciful work, especially one dealing with supernatural elements and themes. **
· · · demonIn Western lore, demons are often described as minions from Hell, generally known to attack humans and feast on their flesh or possess the bodies of those with weak souls. In Eastern lore, on the other hand, they are generally supernatural, often but not always malevolent beings who can be more mischievous than actually evil, or simply supernatural spirits of no specific alignment. **
· · · magicMagic is the art of purportedly manipulating aspects of reality either by supernatural means or through knowledge of unknown occult laws. **
· TO BE MOVED TO CHARACTERTags under this parent tag are going to be moved to character tags and removed from the anime they`re currently assigned to. They will be blocked from the anime system once that move is complete. Please help with that job if you know what characters they should be assigned to.
· · animal sidekickEvery mahou shoujo anime needs them, the cute little critters that are supposed to help the protagonists but in reality are nothing but useless bystanders most often abused for gags. Kids love them but they can also often turn into an annoyance. weightless
· Japanese productionno description set weightless
· gameBased on an interactive (even if minimally so) form of entertainment software, generally available for PCs, consoles or arcade machines. weightless
· · RPGAny anime that is based on a role-playing game aka RPG. A role-playing video game is a video game which includes elements of non-electronic role-playing games. weightless
· mangaManga is the lifeblood that drives the anime industry. Everything and its mother is based on manga. However! There are exceptions where the manga was not the basis for the anime. See also manhua and manhwa. weightless
· · Weekly Shounen JumpThe Weekly Shounen Jump is a Japanese manga magazine released on a weekly basis. Its main target audience consists of young males and it features several manga titles. A number of very famous shounen manga were or are published in the magazine. weightless
· remastered version availableThis anime has been remastered in a higher quality format than the original release. The remaster may be a simple upscale, or it could be a full enhancement project from the original frames. This is irrespective of whether specific groups have released rips of such formats to the internet. weightless
· following one`s dreamNo matter what the hardships may be, at least one of the protagonists in this anime is following her/his dream. Examples: To become a professional athlete, a musician, a painter or the ruler of this world! weightless

accessoriesAccessories are objects characters use or sometimes simply carry around.

glasses (1)Glasses (also called eyeglasses or spectacles) are frames bearing lenses worn in front of the eyes, normally for vision correction, eye protection, or for protection from UV rays. For practical tagging purposes, sunglasses should not be considered glasses; the "glasses" tag is specifically about the type that doesn`t block light. However, a character who wears prescription glasses with dark lenses or who wears both eyewear types should take both tags.

clothingClothing is fiber and textile material worn on the body.

cape (2)A cape is a sleeveless, hood-less outer garment, which drapes the wearer`s back, arms, and chest, and connects at the neck. In contrast to a cloak, a cape leaves the front fairly open whereas a cloak provides more frontal cover. A short cape that only covers just the shoulders is a capelet. A cape or cloak with sleeves is a robe.

fashion accessoriesno description set

earring (1)An earring is a piece of jewellery attached to the ear via a piercing in the earlobe or another external part of the ear (except in the case of clip earrings, which clip onto the lobe). Earrings are worn by both sexes, although more common among women, and have been used by different civilizations in different times.witch hat (1)A typical pointy witch`s hat.

looksThe looks are a person`s physical appearance. They are commonly used to describe people. Specific parts of one`s looks are most often referred to when especially pleasing or attractive, and sometimes also when particularly jarring.

Fu Manchu moustache (1)A Fu Manchu moustache is a full, straight moustache that originates on the corners of the mouth and grows downward past the clean-shaven lips and chin in two tapered "tendrils", often extending past the jawline. The Fu Manchu moustache is not to be confused with the horseshoe moustache; while the horseshoe moustache grows from the entire horseshoe shape, the Fu Manchu moustache grows only from the corners of the upper lip.bald (1)A bald person is someone, most often a male, who does not have any hair on their head. If there`s still hair remaining on the sides or rear of the head, then that person is not yet bald, but balding. This does not include facial hair; a bald person may still have a beard, moustache, or eyebrows.balding (1)A balding person is someone, most often a male, who has begun to permanently lose their hair, usually starting by the front and top of their head and before spreading to the sides and/or rear. If there`s no longer any hair at all, then the person is not balding, but bald.goatee (1)A goatee is a style of facial hair sporting hair on the chin but not the cheeks. A goatee can coexist with sideburns so long as they do not connect; should the sideburns be connected from side-to-side via the goatee, they would cease to exist individually and form a single beard instead. A goatee connected with the moustache is a circle beard.orange hair (1)The character has orange hair.pink hair (1)Pink hair, not much to talk about.pointy ears (1)Well they are ears... and they are pointy... what`s more to say there?!purple hair (1)This character`s hair is colored somewhere between red and blue.scars (1)A scar is an area of fibrous tissue that replaces normal skin after an injury. Scars are result of the biological process of wound repair in the skin and scarring is a natural part of the healing process.walrus moustache (3)A walrus mustache is a moustache characterized by thick, bushy hair that drops over the mouth. The style resembles the whiskers of a walrus, hence the name. It is not to be confused with the handlebar moustache, a similar moustache characterized by lengthy and upwardly curved extremities and its resemblance to the handlebars of a bicycle.yellow hair (1)The character has yellow hair. This does not map precisely to real-life blond hair.

traitsTraits are characteristics, habits, or trends that can be associated to and may be used to identify individuals.

child (2)A child is any person 3 to 12 years old. In everyday usage, babies (younger than 3 years old) are also children, but they are tagged separately; they should not be tagged child as well. Once a person becomes 13, they are an adolescent instead.
