Congratulations, you've finished Metaphor: ReFantazio . Or, perhaps you're still in the thick of the struggle to knock Louis out of the world's creepiest popularity poll. Either way, you're looking for some supplementary viewing. Here are movies and TV shows to watch after Metaphor: ReFantazio .
If Metaphor: ReFantazio was your first trip to the park with Atlus, you're probably curious about its most famous work, Persona 5 . After all, Persona 5 was made directly before Metaphor: ReFantazio with the same director, character designer, and composer. But you might not be feeling like dipping into yet another 100-ish hour JPRG, especially one with such similar systems.
لا شكر على واجب! There's a surprisingly good anime adaptation of the game, aptly called Persona 5: The Animation . The series was made by CloverWorks, the top-tier studio behind major hits like Bocchi the Rock! and Wind Breaker . It also shares the game's stellar voice cast. So, if you're not going to play Persona 5 , this is definitely the next best thing.
If you loved the “struggle for the crown” aspect of Metaphor: ReFantazio , you might want to check out Code Geass . The series takes place in a world where the USA has become a world-domineering empire called Britannia, with Japan as one of its many colonies.
Code Geass is kind of like Death Note meets Game of Thrones meets a mundane high school romance. Genius student Lelouch Lamperouge gets hold of a power that allows him to order people to do whatever he says. The power only works once per person, but that doesn't stop Lelouch from dawning the alter-ego Zero and entering the fray to overturn the king.
Fantasy is actually having a real moment in anime right now. حتى أن هناك حديثًا عن "Fantasy Big Three": Frieren: Beyond Journey's End ، لذيذ في Dungeon ، و Hat Witch Atelier في العام المقبل. في حين أن Frieren على جميع الحسابات ، فإن عرضًا لا يصدق ، فإن السرعة التأملية ، والمواضيع الوجودية ، والتركيز على العلاقة بين الطالب والمعلم تجعلها وحشًا مختلفًا تمامًا عن الاستعارة: Refantazio .
Delicious in Dungeon , however, is a surer jump. تركز المسلسل على حفلة من تالمان ، قزم ، قزم ، نصف قدم ، وهجينة قطة إنسانية-مما يعني أن العلاقة بين سباقات الخيال تبقى في المقدمة ، وإن كانت بطريقة كوميدية أكثر. يتميز اللذيذ في Dungeon ، الذي تم تحريكه بواسطة Trigger Studio Studio المذهل دائمًا ، أحد أكثر عوالم الخيال المذهلة والمبتكرة التي واجهتها على الإطلاق. There is literally talk about ecosystems.
But perhaps, at this juncture, you don't want an anime that's heavily inspired by Dungeons & Dragons . After 80 to 100 hours of JPRG goodness, maybe you'd like a change of pace. Maybe you'd rather just have a straight-up hit of Dungeons & Dragons . In which case, the criminally overlooked Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves will hit the spot.
The film feels like a true homage to Dungeons & Dragons —you can almost feel the dungeon master guiding along the plot. Honor Among Thieves also does us all the favor of not taking itself too seriously. It's an absolute delight.
عندما تفكر في "سلسلة الخيال التي تتعامل مع سياسة الكفاح من أجل القوة الملكية" ، ربما تفكر على الفور في لعبة العروش . So, I won't do you this disservice by listing Game of Thrones here. ولكن إذا تمكنت من العثور عليها في قلبك لتسامح المسلسل لموسمها النهائي الرهيب ، فإن House of the Dragon يقدم قصة جديدة مع نفس الفوضى المتعطشة للسلطة.
House of the Dragon is a prequel to Game of Thrones , centering on the Targaryens when they were still in power and still had their dragons. In fact, it depicts a civil war among the members of the House. Let the flames fly.
Metaphor: ReFantazio does inhabit a stereotypical fantasy world. The game's races all have a unique flavor to them, and the world itself feels like a fresher, more modern take on the genre. For another atypical take on the world of fantasy, check out MAPPA's cult favorite series Dorohedoro .
Dorohedoro is a dark fantasy that takes place in a gigantic, dystopian city fittingly named Hole. The protagonist is a mercenary who, after losing his memory, wakes up transformed into a lizard-man.
You've had your fill of fantasy. Now, you're ready for politically-minded pirates—and the most famously long watch in all of anime.
But One Piece is worth the time you'll sink into it. Metaphor: ReFantazio has a lot to say about democracy and political violence. قطعة واحدة هي عرض عن تمرد الأشخاص بأي عدد من الطرق ضد حكومة قوية للغاية تسيطر على المعلومات التي يمكن للأفراد الوصول إليها - وسوف يقتلون أي شخص يحاول عرقلة هذا الأمر. In other words, One Piece actively grapples with fascism. So, if you want another piece of media to help offset some political steam, here you go. One Piece also just happens to be the greatest story of our time.
Maybe you want your fantasy series grimmer. Perhaps you think Metaphor: ReFantazio didn't go far enough in its interrogation of how humanity corrupts itself in politics. قد تبحث عن سلسلة من حافة المقعد مع رؤية أسود في الملعب لقدرة الإنسانية على تدمير نفسها ، وخاصة باسم غيرها والسلطة السياسية. If so, look no further than Attack on Titan .
Attack on Titan is one of the most famous anime series of the last decade. تبدأ السلسلة بفرضية مفادها أن بقية الإنسانية قد عزلت نفسها خلف سلسلة من الجدران لحماية نفسها ضد جبابرة آكلة اللحوم. But one day, the walls are breached. And things spiral wildly from there.
“Fantasy vs sci-fi” is one of those eternal debates of personal preference. But why must we choose one? And if you're interested in checking out sci-fi which grapples with societal racism, Octavia Butler should be step one on your journey. Granted, unlike Metaphor: ReFantazio , Butler's works don't illustrate these issues via painting a new world. Instead, they focus squarely on American history.
تم تحويل أعمال بتلر الأكثر شهرة ، Kindred ، إلى سلسلة مصغرة في عام 2022. ويركز على امرأة سوداء في العصر الحديث والتي تم إرسالها إلى القرن التاسع عشر.
Whenever there's a discussion about dark, intellectual, morally gray anime, Death Note has to be tossed into consideration by default. Unlike Metaphor: ReFantazio , Death Note fully takes place in our world. But it offers a very grim, dystopian exploration of the question of how to solve society's ills. يتم إعطاء Light Yagami ، طالب مدرسة Genius الثانوية ، قوة مذكرة الموت ، وهو دفتر ملاحظات يسمح للمستخدم بقتل أي شخص ببساطة عن طريق كتابة اسمه. Light decides to use it to kill criminals en masse and soon has to contend with being hunted by a wunderkind detective.
And those are movies and TV shows to watch after Metaphor: ReFantazio .
Metaphor: ReFantaziois now available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
