About Tears to Tiara

Here is what Tears to Tiara (ティアーズ・トゥ・ティアラ) is about, retold in plain terms: an action, adventure and fantasy anime by WHITE FOX (2009). In short: In a world resembling the middle-age. A girl, Riannon, is set to be sacrificed to appease a resurrected demon lord, Arawn.

Soon after, as her brother Arthur attempts to rescue her, Arawn defies those who resurrected him and frees Riannon from her captors, which leads to Riannon admiring him. This before long leads to a party of companions being assembled for adventure, with Arawn acting as the leader.

With action at the core, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Voice work is led by Tooru Ookawa as Arawn and Yuuko Gotou as Riannon. This one is best suited to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. The run is 26 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.
