The Teardrop Crystal doesn’t do a really good job of explaining its word and lore, instead, we are treated to a monologue lore dump by an NPC, which sends our protagonist down the right rabbit hole to advance the story. The nostalgia factor alone is not enough to carry this project, especially because its execution was also spotty at best. It’s not a dedicated in-house team that can make sure everything is up to standard with what was originally presented in the PS1 game. Having so many studios, with so many hands in so many different places, can result in a project that can become a little bit of a mess. Square Enix seems to have all but ghosted this project.Īnd you can tell as even if it’s intentional or not, the scene when the first bit of 3D this series has to offer was shown, looked more like a PS1 render rather than the high-quality FMVs we are used to from Visual Works. It all comes down to how Warner Bros Japan is able to handle all of this outsourcing, and if the people behind the management of this anime can hold out for 3 more months or so. And let’s just say so many hands in different places can not always result in the best of products. Another not well-known outsourced studio for 3D CGi animation. Which are included the likes of, White Foxand Liden Films Kyoto Studio. Seiken Densetsu: Legend of Mana – The Teardrop Crystal (god that’s a long title) is a new anime from Graphinica and Yokohama Animation Lab, with almost 9 other studios helping with in-between animation. Here lies the anime I was most personally interested in this season apart from the big titles that are sure to garner everyone’s attention, there are other more obscure titles coming out this season that show promise, like always, I tend to keep my reservations in check.
