About Elemental Gelade

Elemental Gelade (エレメンタルジェレイド) arrives as an adventure anime by Xebec (2005), and the premise is easy to summarize. The premise: After a routine raid, the rookie sky pirate Coud finds a most unusual cargo in his mates' cargo hold: Ren, an "Edel Reid", a race prized by humans for granting special combat power to their partners through "Reacting". He fast finds out, however, that Ren is even more prized than he expected.

Further in, the pirate ship is visited by three members of the Edel Reid Complete Protection Agency "Arc Aire", who try to purchase her. When Coud refuses, the ship is without warning attacked by an enigmatic force, and Coud's captain charges him with Ren's protection.

As an adventure title, exploration, new locations and a steady sense of momentum drive the story. Kullweet Envatilia (Naoko Suzuki) and Reverie Metherlence (Mikako Takahashi) are two of the characters you will meet early. This one is best suited to anyone who enjoys travel-the-world storytelling. The run is 26 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.
