Songs from Games

Recently I told you about my games, which I like very much. Now I would like to tell you about one of their virtues, their music.
The music is varied and everyone can find something that catches their fancy. I’m not including all the songs from the game, you know, how many tunes there are for one game, I’ve created this article to share with you the music I like. In addition, you’ll be able to find something you like) So, enjoy listening.

 

We will start with the game Ib

 

In this game, let it be in the genre of horror, in the music there are unusual nice melodies. Let it be a xylophone, piano, guitar, etc., but the melodies capture your attention. As if pulling you somewhere that there is some kind of mystery or riddle.

 

Satsuriku no Tenshi Game

This game is also in the genre of horror, but here the music starts playing in another way, so there is a guitar riff and heavy sounds. Each character has his own melody, they are similar in some respects, but also have some differences. So it won’t be boring for you to play)

 

Game Forest of Drizzling Rain

 

Here the melodies have become more traditional, that is typical for the country where the game was created. But the sounds of mystery and danger are in them.

 

Sally Face Game

The game itself is unusual, we play as a teenager in a strange town and with strange neighbors and residents of the town. So the music isn’t standard either, but that doesn’t make it worse. On the contrary, it only draws the player to keep playing. This game and its music is sure to please fans of rock or heavy music. But there are also calmer tunes. So play and let the music draw you in to play.

 

The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt game

Most of you know this game and I’m sure you have heard the melodies from this game. But I just couldn’t add them here, so enjoy listening to the game’s tunes for your favorite witch from Rivia.

 

Assassin’s Creed Origins game

 

Just listen to the game’s motifs where we travel through an ancient civilization. Oh those motifs of Ancient Egypt, I decided to share them with you. So enjoy listening)

 

The game Layers of Fear

A horror game that is addictive with its psychological plot, but its music is just awesome. I like it so much, but I can tell you that at first you will think that it is not for this game. But I can assure you, this music creates a much greater contrast between the soundtrack of the game and the game itself. The music will soothe you, and at the same time, stress you out. And what will happen in the game will scare you even more. Just listen to the motifs of the game)

 

The Vanishing of Ethan Carter

The music in this game reminds you a little bit of the motifs in the game about the witch doctor. Same mystery, but with a touch of the nature of the world around you. Of course there are mysterious murders and paranormal phenomena happening here, so the music is just right, it is neutral, but it sets the right style for your game.

 

Dear esther game

The game itself resembles a romp through beautiful places and searching for notes. There aren’t any scrimmages, or great mystery. So the music here is purely to support the image of the beautiful place you are exploring.

 

And the last game of the day is Kholat

Also a walking game, but there’s already a mystery that you’ll be solving. And also there are some creepy moments, so the music should be appropriate. Of all the tunes I have chosen you only 2, but the rest of the tunes you can hear while you play this game.

Cartoons for adults. Second part

Here is the second part about cartoons for adults! These are not the cartoons that you originally thought!

 

Rick and Morty

In the center of the plot is a schoolboy named Morty and his grandfather Rick. Morty is the most ordinary boy who is no different from his peers. But his grandfather is engaged in unusual scientific research and is often completely inadequate. He can grab his grandson at any time of the day or night and go with him on crazy adventures with the help of a flying saucer built from various rubbish, which is able to move through an interdimensional tunnel. Each time, this couple finds themselves in the most unexpected places and the most ridiculous situations.
Is there anything else I need to say? Gorgeous, hard at times, sometimes I didn’t understand what was happening. But fun and colorful.
Definitely yes.

 

Conspiracy Corporation

The action takes place in the American organization Cognito Inc., owned by the Shadow Government, where employees hide conspiracy theories that are true from prying eyes. The series tells about a girl engineer and her colleague who are trying to uncover all the secrets of the world, working in one place with werewolf reptilians, mutants and psychic mushrooms.
It’s like Rick and Morty, but here all the theories that have ever been are the reality. And they are very well hidden. I’m really looking forward to season 2 of this cartoon, it’s just a very chic cartoon.
And the quarrels between father and daughter, or relationships among colleagues and within the company, are very interesting to watch. So be sure to check it out.

 

Harley Quinn

Harley Quinn has broken off her relationship with the Joker and is now trying to become the Queen of Gotham’s underworld on her own.
I may not be such a fan of DC, but I know a little about their history. So it was very interesting to watch the failures and the solution of these failures for bad heroes. Yes, here the main characters are not heroes, but their opponents. It’s also great to see the city of Gotham and its people who just don’t want to leave. And they endure it all.
Action, fights, black humor, blood and various scenes, if you like all this, then this cartoon is for you.

 

Lower decks

The series focuses on four young ensigns serving on the USS Cerritos, a Starfleet California-class auxiliary ship. Unlike the Enterprise, Cerritos deals with “second contact” issues, ensuring that relationships are established and maintained with newly discovered civilizations.
All the time, for myself, I learned about the Stark Trek universe. I knew about the series, but it is not so popular with us, because it came out much later. And after the new films, I really liked this topic. This cartoon is from the same universe, but there will be a ship about which there was little in the films. So that’s interesting. They will also show us here what the privates who are on the lower decks are doing. After all, that’s what the cartoon is called.
If you like this topic, then watch this cartoon. I haven’t finished watching it yet, but I’ll try to finish it soon.

 

Hell boss

The series is about the employees of I.M.P. (Immediate Murder Professionals), a Hell Murder company doing various jobs. Members of the I.M.P. are Blitz (Blitzo, “o” is not pronounced), the boss of the enterprise, as well as weapons specialist Moxxi, his energetic wife Milly and secretary Hellhound Moon. With the help of an ancient book obtained from the Goetian Hell demon, Stolas, they manage to organize their work and together try to keep their business afloat.
There is a “Hazbin Hotel” that tells you something, then you should watch this cartoon. This is about demons, black humor, obscene phrases and everything that is possible only for adults.
I was waiting for every episode, but I’m more looking forward to the Hotel itself. So for me it was like a “bridge” to something long-awaited. But I liked this bridge too. So take a look.

Cartoons for adults. Part one.

As children, we all watched cartoons, but as we get older, we sometimes think that cartoons are just for kids. This is not so, for every age you can find a cartoon to your liking. And now I want to talk about cartoons that are suitable for an adult audience. The topics and issues that are covered in these cartoons are understandable to adults, and they can find something for themselves. So happy reading.


Avatar: The Legend of Aang.

The world is divided into four nations: the Water Tribes, the Earth Kingdom, the Air Nomads, and the Fire Nation. Representatives of each nation have the ability to control their elements and call themselves the magicians of Water, Earth, Air or Fire. Only the Avatar is the master of all four elements. Its role is to maintain balance between peoples and preserve world order.
One day, the leader of the Fire Nation, the Master of Fire, unleashed a war in order to subjugate the rest of the nations. The responsibility for saving the world fell on the shoulders of a twelve-year-old boy, an airbender named Aang, who found out that he was the Avatar. Aang embarks on a perilous journey with his brave Water Tribe friends Katara and her brother Sokka. He has to master all the elements, go through many trials, overcome his fears and defeat the Fire Lord in order to stop the war and restore balance in the world.
I’m sure most have heard or even watched this work. But it’s worth it! This is a gorgeous cartoon, which is divided into 4 books, tells us about the important values ​​of life, like friendship, love, family and honor. For each viewer to put on a hero who will become his favorite.
I liked that it shows the full path from a little boy who was afraid of his responsibility to a guy who is ready to risk his life and not deviate from his life values.
The continuation of this cartoon is Avatar: The Legend of Korra, but I have not finished watching this cartoon yet. And so I advise you to watch it, to feel like a child.


Samurai Jack.

16th century, Japan. An evil demon named Aku attacked the capital of Japan, destroying everything in its path. The emperor asked three wise men with a mystical gift to forge a magic katana endowed with the powers of good, and then fought with Aku, and the forces of good defeated evil, the demon went to the mountains and turned into stone there.
After 8 years, during a solar eclipse, Aku rises again from stone. By that time, the emperor had grown old, he had a little son, who would later become famous as the samurai Jack. Aku attacks their homeland again, capturing the emperor. However, his wife and son are saved. The boy travels all over the world, meeting skilled craftsmen. With them, he learns horseback riding, weaponry, judo, Greco-Roman wrestling, kung fu and other martial arts. And so, the new samurai returns to his homeland, which is in the power of Aku. The aged mother gives him the magic sword. He frees his father and the other enslaved. He then bravely fights Aku. The demon himself is trying to reincarnate into various creatures, but cannot resist the mighty warrior. And so, when a young samurai raises his sword for a fatal blow, Aku opens a time portal and sends his enemy into the future – 25,000 years ahead. Now the samurai, whom the locals have named Jack, must find a way back to his own time in order to fix the future and destroy Aku.
Without leaving the company working on Avatar, let’s talk about one more of the works. Samurai Jack. A cartoon that differs from most in its art may seem childish at first. But in it, deep inside, there is not a simple philosophy of the samurai, both war and man.
The long-awaited season 5 gave fans the ending of this cartoon, and it was very touching. Samurai fulfilled his mission, but at what cost? You yourself will learn about it from this cartoon.
The cartoon looks easy, but there is action, interesting characters. And of course, the main villain will be able to please you. So for an easy evening, it is the most!

 

Gravity Falls.

The action takes place in the summer in the fictional town of Gravity Falls (Gravity Falls; literally – “gravity falls”; a play on words is used here – “Falls” (from the English waterfall) is relatively common in American place names) in Oregon, where the twins Dipper and Mabel Pines go on vacation to their great-uncle Stan (whom they call, according to various translators: uncle, grandfather or great-uncle (English grunkle – short for the phrase great / grand uncle – great-uncle)). He is the owner of a souvenir shop – “lure for tourists” – “Mystery Shack”. At first, the heroes are bored, but they soon discover that something supernatural is happening in the city. Dipper accidentally finds diary number three in the forest, the author of which is unknown. It details the anomalies of Gravity Falls. Dipper immediately decides to find out the secrets of a strange town and find the author of the diary, but at every step Dipper and Mabel are in danger. The surroundings of Gravity Falls are full of mysterious places, anomalies and strange creatures.
The cartoon may seem childish, but there is so much encrypted in it. From various inscriptions, phrases, clues, coordinates or secrets, good topics for family and relationships with people will be raised in the cartoon itself.
And the town itself pleased me with many different mysterious places that are in it, with each series you learn something more about this city. But in season 2, everything changes dramatically.
And of course, mysticism and demons, magic and mystical creatures. So watch this cartoon and you yourself will want to solve all the fonts.

 

On the other side of the fence.

The main characters, brothers Wirt and Greg (Gregory), are looking for a way home from a mysterious forest called “Unknown”, with the help of an old lumberjack and an eastern sialia named Beatrice.
Wirth, the older brother, is an anxious teenager who prefers to stay out of the way than take risks and make big decisions. He is attracted to playing the clarinet and writing poetry, which he does not share with anyone for fear of being ridiculed for his feelings. Greg, the younger brother, is naive and carefree, the exact opposite of Wirt.
This cartoon will be somewhat similar to a fairy tale or Gravity Falls. Here I liked the relationship between the two brothers, who are very different from each other. That every brother has quarrels, resentments, but also love for each other and a desire to protect.
A fairytale forest where a terrible monster lives, as well as various creatures. Shown in a very cute and simple way, there is no desire to intimidate you. No. There is a desire to walk this road together with the brothers and meet everyone who you meet along the way.

 

Legend of Vox Machina.

Seven friends have long been accustomed to the fact that everyone around them considers them losers who are not capable of anything. After all, they often just wander around the city and endlessly drink strong drinks. Do they deserve any other feedback in their address? But friends want to show everyone that they are very wrong. After all, very soon they have to make an incredible and dangerous journey. They became aware that insidious monsters had penetrated the planet. And now they are doing everything to seize power and subjugate people to themselves. And then there will be no chance of salvation. The guys need to become the best and cohesive squad in order to adequately resist the enemy. There are difficulties along the way. And they are not afraid to begin to solve them. Some are even willing to sacrifice themselves to give a second chance at life to everyone around them. And it doesn’t matter to them whether anyone appreciates it or not. Most importantly, they have already received. All these trials rallied them and turned them into a real and friendly family. After all, this is what they have been missing so much all these long years. And now they are ready to change forever and fully experience what true happiness is when you are loved, appreciated and when you are very much valued.
I was hooked on the Dungeons and Dragons games, so this cartoon was also planted on me. But let me tell you, I liked it. Dark fantasy, where everyone is trying to survive, and they also showed various heroes here. I liked it, the story is interesting, exciting, the graphics are what you need. So if you like Dungeons and Dragons style games, then you will like this cartoon.

Shows I would recommend you watch

Do you also like to watch series? I love watching them, but I haven’t watched that much and I haven’t finished everything yet. But I want to tell you about my favourites. If your series is not available, write to me about it, maybe I watched it, but did not write it down here. There are a lot of series and a lot of good ones, so I will add my list) Some of them I watched in full, some of my number of seasons, I have not finished yet. But I have something to tell you about each of them! So have fun watching in the future)
There will be several parts!

 

Grimm

Set in present-day Portland, a homicide detective learns that he is the descendant of a group of hunters known as “Grimms” who fight to keep humanity safe from supernatural beings. After learning of his fate, and that he is the last of his kind, he must protect every living soul from the sinister characters of the storybook that have infiltrated the real world.
If you like something like The Witcher, then this series is very similar. Only the action takes place in the modern world, and this is very interesting. All mystical creatures appear in various fairy tales of different peoples and countries of the world, which is interesting to study. Fighting scenes will also be here, because the main character is a detective. As well as werewolves, witches, various sects and much more interesting in this gloomy world. All the characters attracted my attention, which is only one werewolf Monroe, he is so correct, but when in the form of a wolf, he is worth being afraid of. There is also a lot of romance and detective stories, there will be many scenes where a tear will be shed and you will be very sorry for the hero.
What are the reincarnations of creatures and medieval books, and weapons, oh, I watched this series with pleasure.
I’ve finished 4 seasons so far and I’m going to watch it to the end. The series currently consists of 6 seasons, it ended in 2017. So you don’t have to wait for episodes to come out!

 

Librarians

The series is about four people selected by the Library for a new team of librarians. They, along with Flynn Carson (Noah Wylie), must solve impossible mysteries, recover powerful artifacts and fight against supernatural threats, and especially against the forces of the “Brotherhood of the Serpent” led by the mysterious and immortal Dulac (Matt Frewer) in the first season.
In the second season, they fight Prospero (from Shakespeare’s play) and Professor Moriarty (Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes). In the third season, the heroes encounter the ancient Egyptian God of Chaos – Apophis, as well as DOSA, where Colonel Eve Baird previously worked. In the fourth season, librarians will challenge their employer, they will seriously begin to think about whether they should trust the Library. Also in the fourth season, Nicole Noon (the first keeper of Flynn Carsen) will reappear, who for some reason was imprisoned in the Library for five hundred years.
Even if I don’t really remember the movie “The Librarian”, it was their series that I really liked. The plot based on magic and fairy tales about “King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table” is very exciting. Also there are various mystical stories and creatures, but still in the modern world.
It was interesting to watch the heroes who do not yet know how to escape or defeat the enemy. All the characters are so different, but they all perfectly complement each other, even if they occasionally quarrel. Let there be no such strong action as in Grimm, but it is not needed here. That they fight with the help of their knowledge and skills, this is a very good idea. After all, a person’s knowledge can help him, even if he himself does not know about it)

 

Once upon a time, in a Fairytail

We continue the theme of fairy tales and mysticism in the modern world!
The plot of fantasy unfolds in two worlds – modern and fabulous. 28-year-old Emma Swan’s life changes when her 10-year-old son Henry, whom she abandoned many years ago, finds Emma and announces that she is the daughter of Prince Charming and Snow White. It goes without saying that the boy has no doubts that an alternative fairy-tale world exists parallel to ours – the city of Storybrooke, in which Emma ends up. Gradually, the heroine becomes attached to an unusual boy and a strange city, whose inhabitants “forgot” who they were in the past. And all because of the curse of the Evil Queen (part-time Henry’s adoptive mother), with the help of which the sorceress stopped time in a fairy-tale land. However, it is worth reaching out – and the fairy tale will come to life. An epic battle for the future of the two worlds begins, but in order to win, Emma must accept her fate…I started watching this series and only got to season 3, I haven’t been able to watch it yet. There was no time for this. But the series started well for me, but for me it seemed to drag on too slowly. The series seemed a little stretched out. Great emphasis on fairy tales and fairy tale characters. I liked the idea of ​​that. What would happen if the fairy-tale heroes themselves solved their problems and it is fascinating to watch this, because no one is immune from mistakes and problems. Even villains. There is no exact good and evil, everyone has their secrets and their strengths. This was interesting for me to watch.

 

 

Squid game

Song Gi-hoon is no longer young, divorced, deep in debt and sitting on the neck of an old mother. Even the money won at the races does not stay in his hands for a long time, and one day he meets a mysterious stranger on the subway, who first offers to play a child’s game, and then gives Gi-hoon a considerable amount and a business card. But the man’s joy will be replaced by despair when he finds out that the ex-wife and her new husband are going to take his daughter to America. He calls the number on his business card and becomes the latest participant in a secret survival game with a $40 million prize. Among the fellow sufferers are his childhood friend – a bankrupt financier, a gangster, a terminally ill old man, a North Korean defector, an immigrant from Pakistan, and many others in desperate need of money.
If you haven’t watched this series, check it out. Yes, it is bloody, but it captures both the picture and some of the characters. It may seem a little incomprehensible or illogical in places to you. But all foreign series, for other people they seem like that, the main thing is to watch until the last episode. There are not many episodes, but they are all very interesting. And the last episode may give a hint of a sequel, but whether it will be or not, no one will tell you.
The topics covered in the series are relevant to this day. After all, we know what a person is capable of when he is in a critical situation and sees no other way out. So some lesson from this series, each viewer will be able to reveal for himself.

 

Boys

The action of the series takes place in a universe where people with superpowers are world famous and work for the influential corporation Vought International, which receives huge profits from their exploitation. However, outside of their heroic roles, most characters are distinguished by arrogant behavior and abuse of impunity. The series follows two opposing groups: The Seven, Vought’s elite team, and The Boys, a group of vigilantes who want to expose the corporation and the superheroes.

The Boys is led by Billy Butcher, who despises all people with superpowers, and the leader of the Seven is the selfish and unbalanced Homelander. At the start of the series, Hughie Campbell joins The Boys after his girlfriend is killed in a high-speed collision with a member of The Seven, and Annie January becomes a member of The Seven and learns an uncomfortable truth about the superheroes she previously admired. The Seven’s team also includes the disillusioned Queen Maeve, the junkie Train-A, the insecure Underwater, the enigmatic Black Noir, and the white supremacist Stormfront. Complementing the Boys Company are the tactical planner Mother’s Milk, the weapons specialist Frenchie, and the superpowered test subject Kimiko. The Seven is overseen by Vought CEO Madeleine Stillwell, who is later replaced by publicist Ashley Barrett.
Superhero movie, but in a black way. Black humor, serious themes, serious problems and lots and lots of gore. Yes, the series is quite tough, but has already found a lot of fans. And with the highly anticipated season 3, we know what’s coming next. Watch this series if you haven’t seen it yet. I just don’t know what else to say about this series. But he is the only one in the field of serials. So it cannot be missed.

Top 10 games I’m ready to play again and again (Part 2)

Well, here’s the second part of the article. The first part can be found HERE.

 

6. The Sims.

I’m sure everyone knows this game too. The Sims is a single-player video game in life simulation genre, developed by Maxis team under the guidance of game designer Will Wright and published by Electronic Arts. Some may like it and some may not, but this game is unique and so far I haven’t seen anything like it. And yes I started playing it when there were sims 2 discs, but now I like creating different characters and going through different hobbies, interests or plots. Your personal dollhouse)

The Sims 3 is a single-player life simulation video game developed by Maxis under the direction of game designer Rod Humble and published by Electronic Arts. In the U.S. the game was released June 2, 2009 for the operating systems of personal computers – Windows and Mac OS X.

The construction editor allows you to create a building in the desired style and furnish it, after which player-controlled sims can live in it.

 

 

7. Layers of Fear.

One of my favorite games, it just has what I like best, it’s puzzles and riddles that you can solve, or rather you absolutely have to solve. Walking around the house of a psychopathic artist, his suffering and his life, we all learn in stages. The atmosphere of the game scared me in places, and yes the screamers too, but it was the music that kept me playing. By the way, this game has a direct sequel, playing as the daughter of the protagonist of the first part.)
Layers of Fear is a computer game in the psychological horror genre, developed by the Polish studio Bloober Team and published by Aspyr. The game was released on February 16, 2016 for personal computers on Windows, Linux and macOS operating systems, as well as for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One gaming consoles. On February 21, 2018, Layers of Fear: Legacy, the Nintendo Switch version of the game, was released.

In Layers of Fear, the player controls an artist with a mental disorder as he tries to complete his masterpiece. The first-person gameplay is an exploration of a Victorian mansion in order to find the items needed to create a painting and to uncover disturbing secrets about the life of the artist and his family. The house through which the player navigates reflects the unstable state of the protagonist and constantly changes the setting to illustrate the artist’s growing madness.

On August 2, 2016, the Layers of Fear: Inheritance add-on was released, which is a story-driven sequel to the game. In the DLC, the player controls the artist’s daughter, who returns to her old home. As she explores it, she relives the dark memories of her childhood and tries to make sense of her father’s past to find a way to forgive him.
The player takes on the role of an artist who returns to his studio. His initial goal is to finish his masterpiece, and the player’s role is to figure out how this task can be accomplished. The player explores the Victorian mansion, exploring it to find visual clues and various puzzles. At the beginning of the game, the house seems ordinary, but as the story progresses, the setting around the player changes, often accompanied by scrimmages. These changes provide new puzzles.

The game is divided into 6 chapters, in each of which it is necessary to find the item needed to complete the picture. Also, while exploring the house, the player can find various objects, notes, drawings that reveal certain aspects of the artist’s life, including the family tragedy that occurred. Some of them are presented in the form of dialog memories.

In this game you can get one of the 3 main endings, all your actions will affect which ending you get. There are several episodes in the game, although the location of this game is all the same house, but with each episode it will change so that you will think you are in different places. I highly recommend it to everyone who likes psychological walkthroughs, with elements of horror.

 

8. The Vanishing of Ethan Carter

Continuing the theme of games, walkthroughs with puzzle solving and with elements of mystic and horror) This next game can capture you with beautiful scenery, and ways to confuse you so that you will find a way back to the right path for a very long time. All those who have dreamed of feeling like a kind of detective who investigates not only missing, but also murders and conspiracies.

The Vanishing of Ethan Carter is a computer game in the quest genre, developed by the Polish studio The Astronauts. The protagonist of The Vanishing of Ethan Carter is a private detective Paul Prospero, who goes in search of disappeared boy named Ethan Carter. His investigation leads him to the quiet town of Red Creek Valley, Wisconsin, where something strange is going on. The game has an open world in which you can travel (with some artificial limitations).

As a character explores the game world, he or she finds various evidence items related to the events that took place there. The main character’s psychic abilities allow him to visualize these events. To do this, it is necessary to find all the clues located nearby. Having found any important item, the player gets a clue about the place with which the item is connected. Some items are allowed to take with them to use later, but there is no inventory in the game, so the player will have to remember what he took.

When enough clues are found, the player can reconstruct the sequence of events. To this end, he needs to place numbers above each character, denoting the chronology of the actions committed by the episode’s participants. As a reward, the player receives a story scene.

The Vanishing of Ethan Carter has an open world that can be freely explored. The player is unobtrusively guided – to solve the next murder, you must first solve the previous one. If the player misses any side quest, he will see a map of the area with all the important action locations marked before the finale.

 

 

9. Dear esther

Once again we have an open world game, but here this game will be interesting for those who want to wander around the beautiful places and just pick up the pieces of someone’s story. Beautiful scenery, a world for the survey of the large, quiet quiet, there is no horror here, only maybe some mystery of these places. And the mystery of the letters you will find along the way.

Dear Esther is an experimental computer game developed by an independent studio The Chinese Room for Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Originally Dear Esther was a Source engine modification of the shooter Half-Life 2. It was released on July 29, 2008. The reworked and updated version Dear Esther was released on the 14th of February, 2012 and distributed on Steam and GOG.
The game is set on a desert island and accompanied by a voice-over narration, reading fragments of a letter addressed to a woman named Esther. There are no puzzles or enemies in the game.

Gameplay consists of moving around locations with a first-person view. The goal is to get to the radio tower with the flashing red light. As the player moves around the island, there are monologues that tell this or that part of the narrative. In particular, the narrator mentions several main characters: a man named Donnelly, who discovered the island; a certain Paul, a drunk driver who had an accident that supposedly caused Esther’s death; and Jacobson, a shepherd who lived on the island in the eighteenth century. As the player explores the island, he discovers various abandoned buildings, the remains of housewares and shipwrecks, and a network of underground caves, the walls of which are littered with fluorescent paint painted chemical formulae, diagrams, and pictures of chains of neurons and bacteria. From time to time, faint, dark human figures can be spotted in remote corners of the island, but they disappear from view when you try to examine them more closely or get closer. As the game progresses, the narrator’s monologues and thoughts blur and change, making it increasingly difficult to recognize which character is speaking.

 

10. Kholat

I don’t know if you’ve heard this story or not, but we have one of the most mysterious mysteries in our country – This, the story of the “Dyatlov Pass”. The expedition, which ended in tragedy, but there are so many mysteries to this day that we may never be able to know the whole truth.
But I must say right away, even though the game is based on real stories, in itself it is a story of the developers of the game and their writers, you should not think that everything that happens in the game was true)

This game was based exactly on the different theories of this mystery. This game will draw you with its unusual visions and beautiful landscapes, even if you don’t know about what happened, it won’t prevent you from enjoying the game. So, at least take a look at it, I’m sure you will be hooked.
Kholat is an indie survival horror game developed by Polish developers IMGN.PRO, in which the player controls the protagonist who follows the steps of a group of nine Russian college students who disappeared in February 1959 on Kholat Syahla. The game is based on the Dyatlov Pass incident involving ten Russian students, nine of whom went missing at Holat-Syahl and were found dead within four months (the tenth student returned early due to illness). Holatchahl (“Holat Syahl”) is a Russian transliteration of the word Holatchahl, which means “Dead Mountain” in Mansi.

The game was released on the Steam Store on June 9, 2015. It was released on the Nintendo Switch on May 14, 2020. It was also released in Japan on September 17, 2020.

The authors came up with their own, highly mystical version of the death of the Dyatlov group. As soon as we get to the foot of the mountain, we hear the voice of the man-who-speaks-Shaun-Bean. He speaks with frightening riddles, then demands that we hurry to find him (otherwise I’ll give you hell), or appeals directly to the player, appealing to his conscience…

Further the scriptwriters mix in a bunch of religious cults of the Mansi (at every step there are pagan totems and temples), myths and facts about the “Valley of Death” (it is actually in Yakutia) and notes with headings like “Revived corpses in Siberia”.
This has its own atmosphere, the constant expectation of something amiss. The Unreal 4 engine gives you a very realistic picture, you literally feel how cold, dark and uncomfortable it is. The sound also helps: whispers and screams add to the creepiness at the right moments, and perfectly matched oppressive music fades in and out, then pulses hysterically in your headphones.

And it’s worth getting to any of the “landmarks,” as particularly unnerving events happen. A monster will appear out of the orange fog, making you look for somewhere to hide, the doors will start slamming, or the whole house will start trembling nervously…

Top 10 games I’m ready to play again and again (Part 1)

I already had a computer when I was a kid, so computer games, I had. But I’m not a gamer like most people. Now I play most of the different games, different genres, but there are games that I am ready to replay many times) But it was from childhood to the end of college, I played a little and looked for games that I was interested in playing and pass their stories. After all, we all had different moods at different times, and the games we want to play also adjust to us. So there will be different games here, of different genres. And yes, each game also fascinated me with its music, if you want, I’ll write a separate article about the music from the games given articles.
Enjoy reading)

What’s up? My story I’ll start with the games, which, although all a little different storyline, but very similar in both graphics and interface.

1.IB, Satsuriku no Tenshi, Forest of Drizzling Rain

I decided to list only my favorite games of these subjects, as these games are a lot, and all I can not pass. And yes they may seem to you games for children, but I do not think so, as these games are horror, albeit not with the scrimmers that you are used to. These games are exciting with interesting characters and story. And also the graphics, which will be unusual for you.

Ib

Ib is a 2012 free-to-play psychological horror video game published and developed by kouri for Microsoft Windows. Players control the titular character from a top-down perspective, trapped in an eldritch art museum, later revealed to be called The Fabricated World, where they meet the characters Harry and Mary. Together, they set their sights on escaping the gallery and returning to the real world.

Ib developer kouri’s debut game, developed using RPG Maker 2000. The art and sprites were created by kouri, and the game was made in a two-dimensional style.

Ib was a critical and commercial success after its release in 2012, and in 2014 it was downloaded over 2 million times in Japan and the United States. The game was praised by critics and viewers alike, especially for its gameplay, story, and characters. It has since become iconic, and Ib is credited with helping popularize the use of its engine in developing games without role-playing elements.

This game captivated me with such a cool story at the time, it was a game I was introduced to as a student. And yes, I was still a fan of anime, which for these games, was a big plus. It wasn’t always possible to download myself a game from other countries. It was also unusual to make the main character a girl of about 10 who is hiding from the bloody mannequins in a museum) The very idea that the paintings we see in museums sometimes have a dark mystical history. And yes there are many endings that depend on your actions.

Satsuriku no Tenshi

Satsuriku no Tenshi (殺戮の天使 Satsuriku no Tenshi, Angel of Bloodshed), also known as Angels of Death, is a computer game in the quest genre, developed by single Japanese developer Makoto Sanada under the alias 星屑 KRNKRN (Jap. Hoshikuzu KRNKRN) and originally published through Den-fami Nico Game Magazine for Microsoft Windows in 2015. Satsuriku no Tenshi was created in RPG Maker VX and uses the corresponding engine. The Nintendo Switch version was released in the summer of 2018. The action game, made in the spirit of psychological horror and playing with the clichés of slasher films.

The story takes place in an unknown abandoned building filled with traps and bloodthirsty homicidal maniacs; its protagonists are a thirteen-year-old girl named Rachel Gardner and a twenty-year-old young man named Zach.

Each floor of the building has its own host, the so-called “Angel.” The entire floor space is called the play area, within which the “game” takes place. The goal of the “Angel” in this game is to catch and kill his victim, the goal of the victim is to escape from the killer and get out of there alive.

Each character in this game, will be different from the others and thus you will find your own hero. And yes here you have only one ending, but it’s interesting. And yes I advise you after the game to read the manga, or at least watch the anime. Since the game a little bit omitted details of the characters. But it really wants to know them better.

Forest of Drizzling Rain

If you like ghost stories, then this is the game for you. It’s just that the whole story will be tied to them.
You are in for a story about a girl named Shiori, who had to face a hard ordeal in her life – she lost her parents, their life was taken by a car accident. Totally broken, Shiori can’t cope with her loneliness, and the summer vacations give a lot of free time for unhappy thoughts. So, using a photo found in the family album, Shiori decides to go in search of her other relatives or at least some information about them. And her way is to the village of Azakawa. But what does this village and its inhabitants hide? And why did Shiori’s parents leave the place and cut off all contact with it? Gradually, you’ll find the answers to these questions.
In this game all your actions will influence the game`s ending, because of this you can get several endings.

2. Sally Face

Sally Face is an indie-adventure game created by Steve Gabri aka Portable Moose. The game is about the titular protagonist Sal Fisher (otherwise known as Sally Face), a boy with a prosthetic face who investigates local murders with his friends. The game consists of 5 episodes that were released between 2016 and 2019. Sally Face was also released on Nintendo Switch in 2021. Sally Face is an online game featuring characters such as Sal Fisher, Larry Johnson, Todd Morrison, Ashley Campbell, Travis Phelps, and many others.

This game interested me because of its compelling story and plot. Demons, sects, enemies everywhere, but who is your friend? Everything depends on you and your actions and skills to find and solve riddles) The game consists of several episodes, you also learn the past and future of some characters, all characters are interesting and with unique stories about their lives and each has its own character. I will tell you the story of only the first episode, I do not want to tell you everything, because it will not be very interesting to play.

But maybe you will be interested) Play it, I am sure the music and the drawing, as well as the storyline you will definitely addict. And yes the puzzles there are not ah tee, but how sometimes complex)

Episode 1: Strange Neighbors

Sal Fisher, a 15-year-old boy with a prosthetic face, moves in with his father in the Addison Apartments building in the town of Knockfell. The day before they arrive, another resident, Mrs. Sanderson, is murdered. Sal explores the apartment and meets the other tenants, including Larry Johnson, who reveals that he witnessed the murder. Sal helps Larry find evidence that one of the other tenants, Charlie Mansfield, was the killer. They present the evidence to the police and he is arrested.

3.The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

I’m sure everyone knows this game, but I’ll tell you a little bit about it, too. After all, I started to play it again when I abandoned it a long time ago.
“The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt” – a computer game in the action/RPG genre, developed by the Polish studio CD Projekt RED. Released on May 19, 2015 on Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, then on October 15, 2019 on Nintendo Switch, it is a narrative sequel to The Witcher (2007) and The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings (2011). This is the third game set in the literary universe of the The Witcher book series created by Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski, and the latest to tell the story of the adventures of Heralt of Rivia.

The dark fantasy game, whose world is based on Slavic mythology, tells the story of the witch Heralt of Rivia, a monster hunter, whose adopted daughter Ciri is in danger, being pursued by the Wild Hunt – a mysterious otherworldly force, whose mystery is revealed as the game progresses. Many of the plot details reference the books written by Sapkowski, but the plot remains tied to the first two installments and sums up the trilogy started by the first game, which came out eight years earlier. Unlike the previous games, The Witcher 3 takes place in an open world and focuses on using Geralt’s combat and detective skills to fulfill orders and explore the environment. It’s all part of a multi-level main quest with many secondary missions that can be completed with 36 different endings.

This game is fascinating with its open world, the characters, and especially Geralt’s conversations. Oh his “Zaraza” or “Cholera” just love it) Music in the game is just awesome, we have for the Russian players, very well adapted almost all the songs in Russian, so it’s very nice to listen to it. Although I heard the original, too. But it’s always better to hear it in your native language. About the monsters I don’t need to say much, I will say this, there are a lot of them and very detailed. There are a few of my favorites that I’ve already made several figures of them. I love the local folklore and the slightly mysterious side of the witch’s world and how they struggle with all the adversity and how strong the friendship between the characters is. All of this makes me want to keep playing this game. I hope you have already played it, if not play it by all means) whether you like it or not, it already depends on each of you, but you should try to play it.

4.Assassin’s Creed Origins

The series of Assassin games is diverse, but why did I choose this series for myself? Because I’m a fanatic since childhood from the mystique of ancient Egypt, and here I have the opportunity, at least as myself feel like an explorer and defender of this country. Well, yes, and more battles) About the game series Assassin do not have much to say, we all know how it looks like and how the game, then it all depends on what era the player wants to get to himself. I have played many games in this series, but most of all I liked Ancient Egypt, Greece and Scandinavia. All of these game series I play periodically.

Assassin’s Creed Origins is a multiplatform Action/RPG developed by Ubisoft Montreal Studios and published by Ubisoft. It is the tenth game in the game series of the same name. The game was released on October 27, 2017 on Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One platforms.

The game is set in Hellenistic Egypt during the reign of Cleopatra. The protagonist is Bayek, a Medjai who protects his people from threats. The open world allows players to move freely through Egypt. The game is played in third person, and its world can be explored on foot, on horseback, on a camel or by boat.
The events of the game unfold simultaneously in the present and the past.

In 2017, the Order of the Templars, thanks to the Shroud of Eden they obtained two years ago, is ready to recreate the Forerunner in order to gain control of the planet. Violet da Costa turns out to be a member of the Organs of the First Will and has been helping Juno be reborn all along. The Assassins, according to Bishop, plan to take action to retrieve the Particle of Eden.

The player controls the Egyptian explorer Layla Hassan, who explores the memory of the last Medjay, Bayek of Siva and his wife Aya of Alexandria. Together they help Cleopatra in the civil war against her brother Ptolemy XIII and lay the foundation for the Brotherhood of Assassins.

5. Spore

I don’t know if you heard about this game or not, but you just have to play it. At least try it! Let it be pretty old, but this game is unique) Here you will feel like a god!
Spore is a computer game in the God Simulator genre, developed by Maxis studio under the guidance of Will Wright and published by Electronic Arts for Windows and macOS. Spore invites the player to take an evolving species of living beings through a series of stages, from a single-celled microorganism to an interstellar civilization; the game scales accordingly from a single planet to an entire galaxy. Spore’s gameplay changes noticeably with each new stage, drawing elements from games of various genres, whether action, computer role-playing games or real-time strategy. The developers of Spore have used procedural generation mechanisms to create many different and non-repeating living creatures and the planets they inhabit. As a single-player game, Spore also contained an asynchronous online component: player-created content-such as living creatures-was uploaded to a shared database and from there fed to other players, so that a unique kind of creature created by one player could appear in other players’ universes. The game received high praise from critics, who praised the game’s extraordinary scale and the ability for players to create their own unique creatures, buildings, and vehicles; however, critics found the gameplay at most stages of Spore too primitive and bland; the use of the SecuROM copyright protection tech also garnered criticism.
The game is an “evolutionary simulation. The player is given the ability to choose the size, appearance, and path the creature follows.

The game is divided into several stages. At the end of one stage, the result of his actions is read and a special bonus is given, based on the actions, which will affect the subsequent stages. As you pass the stages, the creature physically changes. When passing, for example, you can notice the change in height relative to other creatures (using the example of the hologram used on the planets in the stage “Space.

At the beginning the player chooses a planet (there are always 6 free planets to choose from), on which his creatures will live. The initial stage of the game is chosen. At first you can choose only the first stage “Cage”, but as you pass the rest of the stages will become available for selection. Using the console commands, it is possible to open all levels at the beginning of the game.

TOP-20 Favorite songs at the moment

Hi everyone!

Since I love and listen to music very often. I am sure that most people like me like to listen to music of different genres and in different languages.

Previously, I listened mainly to the rock genre when I studied at a music school and met classical music. Some works of classics really impressed me, later they began to be added to my playlist. Then I began to add Japanese music from cartoons of the Ghibli studio and various anime series. Already in adulthood, music from TV shows and films began to appear. So my journey from pure rock to meloman was not so long, but very interesting. Today I continue to listen to rock, and also open to new music, but not all modern music I like, so I listen to what came up to me in sound, in mood, or just very well written. Although I don’t understand a lot of lyrics (I don’t know languages) but the melody itself and how the text is sung in it, I like it.

I want to share with you a small part of my playlist so that someone can discover new songs for themselves or just listen to what they have already heard again. Yes, I know that many people may not like it, disagree with my opinion, 6 but I do not want to offend anyone, I just share my dear things with you. After all, music is beautiful.

Nice listening! =)

Description of the series and the order of viewing in the anime “Gintama.”

Hi everyone!

I told you about my favorite anime, now I want to tell you separately about the funniest, but at the same time exciting anime. Yes, there may at first seem that there is no certain plot, you will be right, but later all these small storylines will be woven into one large plot line. Everyone is sure to have their favorite hero, because there they believe me a lot!

This anime is also suitable for those who like samurai, a space theme, which is fantastic and non-standard. In some arches there are chic battle scenes, strong and motivational words, etc. The most difficult thing is just to inspect it to the end, I immediately say watch it necessarily from the first episodes, since in the end there will be a lot of characters that you simply will not know! And so pleasant to you viewing)

Why I listened to these Russian rock bands as a child

As a child, I listened to various music, and my older brother influenced my playlist today. It was he and his friends who brought us CDs with various groups, clips, albums and I, in the company of my brother’s friends, listened to this music. When I got older. Of course, my preferences became more specific. But I still liked something from my childhood, my brother and I then went to concerts of those groups that listened in childhood.

So I would like to talk about 5 groups of Russian rock that I listened to as a child, it will be interesting.

1 Group

The very first group I always remember from my childhood is the King and the Jester. A brief history of the group: “King and the Jester” (abbreviated as “KiSh”) is a Russian horror punk band from St. Petersburg.

The group was formed in Leningrad in 1988. After the death of its leader and one of the founders of Mikhail Gorshenev on July 19, 2013, he performs only in the rock musical TODD.

It stands out for its unusual style for classic punk rock. The songs of the group are small finished stories, often in a fantasy, mystical, as well as historical way. The stage image of the group constantly changed and often included makeup corresponding to the theme of the songs. In the press, the group was repeatedly designated as “cult.”

Initially, the rhythmic horror punk prevailing in the musical component eventually went beyond the boundaries of the style and incorporated many musical elements: folk rock (“Acoustic Album”), art punk (“Demon Theater”), hardcore punk (“Riot on the Ship”), hard rock (“Like in an old fairy tale”) and many others. At an early stage, The Beatles had a strong influence on the group.
I liked their energetic sound, the text in the way of terrible tales, like the original tales of the Grimm brothers. Especially I remember. How the whole company of their brother sang their songs with loud voices and it was so cool) Later, when the KiSh group broke up, one of the main members of the Andrei Knyazev group, the King and the Jester, created his new musical group. She has the name “Knyazz” and it retains the theme of the King’s songs and the jester, this energy of music and vocals. So the legacy of the “King and the Jester” still lives.

King and Jester – Fool and Lightning

2 Group

The next group is a little similar to the theme of the lyrics. This group also has lyrics related to the themes of fairy tales, myths and legends, as well as folklore of various peoples.

Mill is a Russian folk rock band from Moscow. It was founded on October 15, 1999 by the musicians of the disbanded group “Til Uhlenspigel.” Vocalist, harpist and main songwriter – Helavisa (Natalya Andreevna O’Shay).
Seven full-length albums created a truly unique phenomenon in folk music and in the domestic music industry as a whole.

The journey from tiny clubs to huge stadiums took ten years – there were radical changes in composition, triumphs on the radio, recognition of the public and a huge number of live concerts. The group managed not only to change the attitude of the audience to folk, but also to make this genre as popular as we see it in Russia today.

It is customary to call the work of the Mill folk rock, but this is a very wide definition. On the albums you can hear chamber harp plays, and large-scale rock canvases, and jazz notes, and direct bits from good pop music. Musicians do not consider it necessary to limit their work to genre frames and direct references – it seems that the concept of “Mill-Style” can be introduced for a long time.

“Mill” takes exactly the melody with folklore, these are lyrical motifs and fabulous text are well connected with the melody of the guitar and harp. Sometimes I just wanted to be in the forest and listen to the songs of this group and feel in a fairy tale. What else is remarkable about this group, so that it is one of the first groups that began to play in the genre of folklore rock. So listen to the advice!

Mill – The Tale of the Devil
Mill – Tamerlane Doors

3 Group

Now I’ll tell you about another group.

Beasts is a Russian pop rock band created by Roman Bilyk in 2001. Winner of the MTV Russia Prize and the Debut Prize. At the Muz-TV awards, the group won the nomination “Best Rock Band” 9 times. The Beasts group was created in 2000 by Roman Bilyk, known under the pseudonym Roma Beast. The producer was composer Alexander Voitinsky, who had previously collaborated with the producer of the Tatu group Ivan Shapovalov. They recruited musicians of the group through ads on the Internet. In 2001, the group released the video “For You.” In 2002, a video was released for the song “Just Such Strong Love.” The videos were followed by the debut album “Hunger.” Songs from this album “Rain Pistols,” “Ring,” “For You,” “Just Such Strong Love” were successful in the Chart Dozen charts. In the same year, the group first performed at the Invasion festival.

In February 2004, the group released their second album, Neighborhoods, which was a breakthrough for her to fame. A number of video clips are broadcast by Muz-TV and MTV Russia: “Everything that concerns,” “Drinks are stronger,” “South Night.” The album is followed by a concert tour of Russia and the CIS, lasting almost two years.

This is a little information about the group, how to me these awards were deserved, since this group is very emotional, very suitable for young people of that time and everyone was very quickly remembered. So for once listen to them and I’m sure something she’ll hook you up with.

Beasts – Just such strong love
Beasts – Drinks stronger

4 Group

Now let’s talk about one of the oldest groups, this article is the Agatha-Christie group.

Agatha Christie is a Soviet and Russian rock band, one of the most popular in the country in the mid and second half of the 1990s. It was founded in 1985 in Sverdlovsk by Vadim Samoilov, Alexander Kozlov and Peter May under the name VIA RTF UPI, and officially the history of the group is counted from the concert on February 20, 1988. During the recording of the album “Second Front” in early that year, the younger brother Vadim Gleb joined the group. Subsequently, the composition of the group changed several times, but the Samoilov brothers invariably remained its leaders and vocalists. They, together with Alexander Kozlov, are the authors of all the songs “Agatha Christie.”

The work of the group is heterogeneous and intersects with many areas of rock music – gothic rock, post-punk, alternative rock, psychedelic rock, glam rock, art rock, hard rock and others.

The most famous songs of the group include such compositions as “Viva Kalman!,” “How to War,” “Hysteria,” “Opium for No One,” “Fabulous Taiga,” “Black Moon,” “Sailor,” “Carpet-Helicopter” and “Secret.”

The group has ten studio albums, five collections, two albums with remixes, three maxi-singles, eighteen videos. In 2009, the musicians announced the termination of the existence of the group and went on a final tour of Russia and neighboring countries. By the summer of 2010, the last album of the group was recorded – “Epilogue,” and also a point was made in the tour of the same name – the group played a farewell concert at the festival “Invasion.”

After the collapse of Agatha Christie, Gleb Samoilov, together with keyboardist Konstantin Bekrev and drummer Dmitry Khakimov, who played in Agate since 2008, created the group Gleb Samoiloff & The Matrix (later simply The Matrix).

The name that glorified the group appeared in 1987. Since none of the band members could come up with any original names, Vadim Samoilov suggested naming it in honor of Jacques-Yves Cousteau, whose fan he was then, but his idea was not supported. When it came to using the name of another famous person, Alexander Kozlov proposed the English writer Agatha Christie despite the fact that he never loved her detective novels. One of the motives for this name, perhaps, was that its initials – A.K. – coincided with his own.

We liked this group with its unusual lyrics, sound and the way the video series was shown in their clips. One can consider “Agathu-Christie” to be a kind of weirdo who differs from others. My favorite songs are “Secret” and “Like in the War.”

Agatha Christie – How to War
Agatha Christie – Secret

5 Group

And the last group for today is Bi-2.

Bi-2 is a Soviet, then Belarusian rock band, formed in 1988 in Bobruisk. The founders and permanent members are Shura Bi-2 (guitar, vocals) and Leva Bi-2 (main vocals). The team in 2021 also includes Andrei Zvolov (guitar), Max Lakmus (bass), Boris Lifshits (drums, percussion) and Jan Nikolenko (backing vocals, keyboards, flute, percussion).
In September 1999, Leva and Shura came to Russia to consolidate the virtual success of Bi-2. However, despite the fame of the songs, the group for a long time fails to conclude a contract for the release of the album. In addition, the Australian composition of Bi-2 could not come to Russia, so Shura and Leva had to look for musicians in Moscow. Alexander “Heap” Ponomarev, who also worked with the Spleen group, took up the promotion of Bi-2.

Leva Bi-2: “We did acoustic concerts, and then held a wise action: we pulled journalists to the cottage, sang our songs to them under vodka and barbecue, and people drew attention to us. They began to look for musicians here. Bass player Vadim Ermolov was lured from the Zhuki group, in addition, drummer Grigory Gaberman (he worked with Kvartal) and keyboardist Nikolai Plyavin joined us. They learned the material recorded on the record, of course, contributing a lot of their own to it. ”

The first major performance of Bi-2 in the new composition took place on December 10, 1999 – at the very first festival “Invasion,” held in the recreation center of Gorbunov. The first appearance of the group on TV took place in February next year on the live broadcast of Dmitry Dibrov’s Anthropology.

Filming for the film “Brother 2,” 1999

In 2000, Bi-2 took part in the creation of the soundtrack for Alexei Balabanov’s film “Brother-2” and starred in this film (as themselves). The song “Nobody writes to the Colonel,” sounded in this blockbuster, instantly becomes a hit and still remains one of the main compositions of the group.

After the release of the video “Barbara” and the radio single “No one will come” Bi-2 April 13, 2000 sign a contract with Sony Music Entertainment Russia. As a result, on May 20, 2000, Sony released on the Russian market the record recorded by the group back in Australia “And the ship sails…,” but with a different order of tracks, a different design and a new name – “Bi-2.”

The group “Bi-2” still lives and so far it writes some of the most cool sounding songs from Russian rock. Their melodies are very unusual for sound, because the soloist puts emphasis on how he wants, and always sings in different ways. So each song will have a different sound, but similar motives will hint to you that the same group sings. Separately, you need to mention how their songs sound with the symphony orchestra, the guys just watch the video and listen.

I told you a little about which groups have influenced my musical tastes since my childhood. Of course, things change over time. But everyone sometimes hears a melody from his childhood and recalls it with nostalgia. I touched only Russian rock, on the account of a foreign I will tell you later)

Top 10 anime that impressed me at a conscious age – Part 2

Continuation of the first post about my favorite anime:

6. Soul Eater

To fight the evil Kisin, who can “plunge the world into the abyss of madness,” Sinigami-herself (death itself) creates the Academy – a place where the Weapons and Lords undergo joint training. The former are the weapons that will stop the demise of the world; the second are those who will hold these weapons. The Death Spit will turn out when the weapon eats 99 evil souls ready to become Kisin, and 1 witch soul, and therefore all the lords actively compete in the creation of the Death Spit.

 

The universe of the “Soul Eater” as to me is a parody of the modern world. Many characters featured in this world are similar to some versions of famous people and personalities or literary characters. The central object is, of course, the Shinigami Academy, located in the City of Death. In its center, Sinigami himself lives in the Death Room, students study at the academy itself. Moreover, students usually study not only what they need in the fight, but also in the daily work of the Lord. Much still depends on the whims of the teacher, which, obviously, is another parody element. The main task of students is to perform tasks posted on a special board, which allow them to collect the souls of villains and witches.

One of the main elements of the world is the presence in any being of a soul that has the appearance, size and determining character, as well as the behavior of this being. The stronger the will of the person – the greater the soul. Some souls are able to enter the resonance, for a while mutually reinforcing each other. This is often used by the Lords and their Weapons in order to increase their combat effectiveness many times.

The story revolves around three groups of students, all of them are very different: a very diligent Maki paired with Saul (who has the ability to turn into a spit), a breed for a Black Star ninja paired with Tsubaki (she turns into any ninja weapon) and a symmetry-obsessed Death Jr. (he is the son of Shinigami), working with sisters Pat and Liz Each couple has its own shortcomings in work, all this is very interesting to watch on the screen. The Black Star jokes are sometimes really funny, and the Death of the Younger disease is interestingly shown in a funny way. As in any university, familiality flourishes – Mac, for example, the daughter of the current Death Spit, and Death Jr. is generally the son of God. But kinship does not affect the attitude to study, and rival friends compete in destroying wickedness honestly and with all their might, each in their own style…
Of course, they are all children, but here it is shown how exactly they grow up with each battle, because they can also be killed or injured. Each of these couples will stand up for their friends and will definitely help the other. There will also be one of the main characters – Khrona (master of black blood) and her sword Ragnarok. Here her story will really be difficult, but in its own way it is very interesting.

I really like this anime with my drawing, which reminds me of the style of one of my favorite directors: Tim Burton. Strange faces on the moon and in the sun, drawing the cemetery and creatures, very interesting to watch.
The drawing of battle scenes is very interesting, there will be no few of them.
Of course, separately here you can praise humor, although here the plot is such a little tough, but it is humor that helps children here to remain positive and friendly heroes. Even the most serious heroes here can joke, and in five minutes they will already fight with the enemy.

But there is one big minute, anime adaptation is very different at the end he manga. If this anime comes in, I seriously recommend you to read the manga after the anime, since there will be more places of interaction in the manga, more secondary characters will be revealed. More humor and also a gorgeous last battle.

7. Angel of Bloodshed

One of my favorites, because before the anime came out, I played the game of the same name, so I fell in love with this plot. Later the manga came out, I read it and then the anime comes out.

13-year-old Rachel wakes up in the basement of an abandoned building. She lost her memory, and she has no idea who she might be. Stunned, Rachel wanders around the building and in a fast stumbles upon a man wrapped in bandages. He appears to be Zach, and he has a scythe, as if they are Death.

A connection is established between Rachel and Zach, bound by strange, insane promises.

These two are imprisoned in a strange building, and they don’t know why fate put them there. But they work together, desperately trying to find a way out.

Of course, everything here is connected with the psychology of people and a certain philosophy, but in this anime everything is not seriously revealed here, it is a little sad. The most important thing here is the heroes, that few of them, each owner of his or her floor, and each floor reveals to us his or her owner. All of them are very different, then a maniac with a scythe, then a doctor who loves the eyes, then a priest or a boy who makes graves. They are all different and all with their own stories, but in the anime they will only be revealed a little. Situations in which heroes will fall, very exciting, distrust of each other and the bloodthirstiness of everyone will play a game with them.

All of them are psychos who do not want to change, and want to continue to play this game. It is also very interesting to watch a little girl among all this nightmare and in the end you will empathize with some heroes. The drawing is not bad, but very bright and colorful, for each hero its own color.
The anime does not last long, but if you want to watch an anime about psychos in one building, you can look at this work.

8. Gintama

Love black humor, parcels on various animes and other works, as well as the gradual development of heroes and soon awesome fights both in space and on earth, where there are not only samurai, but also aliens and animals? Then be sure to watch this anime.

The plot of the work is based on the events of the Bakumatsu era.

In the middle of the nineteenth century, the first contact with aliens took place – black ships of Amanto aliens landed in Japan. They arrived on Earth with the aim of capturing it. The swords of the samurai and the guns of the Asigaru were powerless against the technologies of the future, and the shogunate obeyed the power of Amanto. Only the patriotic group of Joy resists the power of the invaders; Joy once led the national movement, but now it has degenerated into a terrorist organization, whose members are actively persecuted by the shogunate and Shinsengumi.

Gintoki Sakata, one of the former leaders of Jōya, and now just a master in all hands, is trying to find a source of stable earnings in the new Edo, periodically encountering Shinsengumi, Harusame pirates and members of Jōya, whose current leaders are not rested by his betrayal. Together with his companions Simpati Simura and Kagura, he repeatedly finds himself in dangerous situations, from which he often spins out with the help of friends and tortuosity.

All their given situations look comical, but there are also quite serious battles, not for life, but for death. Samurai fights in recent seasons look just awesome, and music and graphics get better with each season. Yes, only for this it will be necessary to watch the first seasons, in truth, yes, they are prostate and a little boring, but it was only trial seasons. But even in the first seasons there were such funny series and such funny situations that I laughed for a long time, and so with each new season the story begins to move and develop, becoming more and more serious, but not forgetting to dilute all this with humor. On the Internet there are lists of series with their mini content, so for new people you can suggest which series should be watched carefully and which can be left for the background.

I watched this anime when I went to college, and yes I started with the first episodes, but soon I liked the interesting characters and their comic situations so much that this anime became my favorite and almost all my friends I made me watch some episodes.

About the characters, we can say that in each person there is both something good and something repulsive, but each hero was prescribed in such detail, and at the end each hero received his own end. There are also police who shoot bazookas and fight swords, there are alien killers and also many space monsters. Sometimes ordinary people will seem to you as monsters, even Shogun (the ruler of the country) will be present here, both in comic operations and in combat.

If you want to laugh at jokes and see how the heroes are in awkward situations, then watch some series of gintams. I’m sure everyone will find something for themselves in this anime.
List of series with characteristics I can attach separately if you ask)

9. Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari

The ascent of the Hero of the Shield tells you the story of the ordinary otaku Naofumi Iwatani, who, by fate, when reading an unusual book in the library, along with three other young guys throws himself into a parallel world – in a country called Melromark. Yes, not abs as, but in the role of one of the four legendary heroes, whose purpose is to fight the waves of monsters, at certain moments attacking the kingdom. Of course, heroes will risk their lives for a reason – in return they receive royal approval, human love and mountains of awards. But Naofumi was not very lucky, because he fell out with the class considered the weakest – the Knight of the Shield – who could practically not fight on his own.

In fact, Naofumi Iwatani does not really fit the description of otaku, which is not capable of social interactions with people. Yes, in the first series he is stubbornly dumb and does things that an adequate person in his right mind would not do, but later he completely takes the blows of fate and behaves adequately. Moreover, he is not to blame for all sins, he is very well framed and will not be believed until a certain moment. Moreover, from a certain moment it becomes clear that Naofumi is a fairly smart and calculating guy, whose actions are interesting to watch and who is quite easy to empathize with.

The first four episodes of Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari set the viewer to a gloomy atmosphere, preparing you to watch the difficult adventures of all the rejected hero, who is forced to create evil in order to survive, but later the gloomy atmosphere instantly volatiles, changing to a smoother atmosphere, because the main problems of the hero have already been solved. And we see a common adventure in the fantasy world of the protagonist and his companions.

The first of the advantages can be called a well-adjusted balance between action and adventure, due to which the narrative is uniform in saturation and speed. In the anime, there are practically no passing, frankly boring series that would not move the plot forward in any way – that is why Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari even with all the disadvantages looks easy and undisturbed. Then I would call a very visual demonstration of the manipulation of the media and Vera. Perhaps I have not yet seen in any works such a colorful explanation that in evil hands the media and religion can turn into a dangerous weapon with a force that can destroy everything in its path. And finally, I liked the variety of techniques and abilities that the hero is endowed with – everything looks very colorful and effective. But more than that, I liked how exactly he uses his abilities and the abilities of his satellites, although the tricks are ordinary, but the result is impressive.

Separately, we can say about music, I really liked the motifs of the fantasy world in this work. Here they masterfully combine a variety of musical styles, as a result of which magnificent combined compositions are born, powerful both symphonic and electronic sound.

10. Drifters

Events begin in the midst of the battle for Sekigahara (Japan). The defeated detachment of the Shimazu clan decides to make a breakthrough, but the enemy stubbornly catches up with the retreating. In order to delay the pursuit and give their troops time to retreat, the young samurai Toyohisa Shimazu with a small detachment block the road to the enemy. As a result of an unequal battle, Toyohisa’s detachment is defeated, and he himself is mortally wounded. However, instead of going to the forefathers, Toyohisa suddenly discovers herself in a white corridor with many doors, in the middle of which a mysterious man with glasses sits at the table. He marked something in his papers, and Toyohisa was dragged into one of the doors. So he ended up in a different world inhabited by fabulous creatures. Soon Toyohisa met in him other people who came here from their native world – here they are called wanderers. Joining forces with Nobunaga Oda and Yoichi Suketaka Nasu, Toyohisa goes on a trip to an unfamiliar world, leaving behind a deep bloody trail wherever he appears.

The main part of the characters in Drifters are real historical personalities transferred to the fantasy world from different eras and different parts of the Earth. The main 3 characters from which the plot begins are very bright and each unique and strong in its own way. Toyohisa Shimazu is a samurai of the late sixteenth century who died in 1600 at the Battle of Sekigahara (by the way, anime begins with it); Nobunaga Oda is the military-political leader of Japan in the mid-sixteenth century, who devoted his life to uniting the country; Yoichi Suketaka Nasu is a samurai of the late twelfth century, known for his skill in archery.
Even if the story is led by one hero, he will be equally interesting, but when they are together it will be even better. At first they will seem to you to be villains, as well as civilians: on the one hand it is, but everyone has his own story behind him, his own standards, motivations, and principles.

A little bit of everything was revealed by secondary heroes, but all of them are also such bright personalities and all so different that there is almost no one like each other.
Of course, the anime will seem gloomy to you, but there is a share of humor in it, and not bad.
The drawing is very high-quality, that the heroes themselves, that this world. In order to make sure of the quality of the picture, it will be enough to look at a couple of screenshots, and the questions will fall away by themselves. Great big plans with extremely high level of detail.

The most important thing to see here is the battle scenes, the strategies of the main characters and, of course, the music from the opening. Guys, I then listened to this song without stopping, it’s so awesome.
