About The Silver Guardian

Meet The Silver Guardian (銀の墓守り), an action, comedy and fantasy anime by Haoliners Animation and Studio LAN (2017). Here is the premise in a nutshell. The premise: Suigin and Rei both play the MMORPG Dungeon Century. But after adventuring together for weeks, the game’s servers shut down to make way for the latest world-altering title.

More of the story: Grave Buster—a video game proclaiming “reality beyond reality” hits the shelves, and Rei is pulled into it by forces unknown. Now it’s up to Suigin to rescue her from the virtual realm, no matter the cost.

With action at the core, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Voice work is led by Jun Fukuyama as Shuiyin Lu and Azumi Asakura as Shostia. It will appeal most to viewers who like fast, high-impact fights. With 12 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.

Production & Appeal

Production sits with Haoliners Animation and Studio LAN, which means the visual identity of The Silver Guardian follows that studio's craft. Because it leans on action, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Its 5.7/10 score suggests opinions are split, so it suits viewers who already like the genre. Voice casting, including Jun Fukuyama as Shuiyin Lu, adds to the appeal for fans who follow seiyuu. It aired in 2017, which makes it easy to place in the wider anime calendar.
