About Rokka: Braves of the Six Flowers

Here is what Rokka: Braves of the Six Flowers (Rokka no Yuusha) is about, retold in plain terms: an action, adventure and fantasy anime by Passione (2015). In short: An ancient legend states that with the revival of the Demon God, six heroes—the Braves of the Six Flowers—will be chosen by the Goddess of Fate. Adlet Mayer, self-proclaimed "Strongest Man in the Realm," has arrived at the continent of Piena in hopes of becoming a Brave.

Another thread: Although it doesn't go as smoothly as he had planned, Adlet is ultimately chosen as one of the six heroes shortly after being greeted by Nashetania Loei Piena Augustra, crown princess and fellow Brave. Rokka no Yuusha follows the two as they embark upon their destined quest to struggle the Demon God, intending to meet up with their fellow heroes at a small temple outside of the Land of the Howling Demons, the fiends' domain. However, when they finally unite, seven heroes are present, and soon the others begin to suspect Adlet to be a fraud.

With action at the core, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. It will appeal most to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights.
