Are you looking for some anime to add to your winter 2023 season watchlist? Then we might give you a hand with it. Video game fans might already be aware of this, but if you still have not heard, we have exciting news for you; We are getting an anime adaptation of the Trails series. Isn’t that exciting? The only trail adaptation we have got so far is the 2011 OVA Legend of the Heroes: Trails in the Sky, but it needed to be longer and better.
However, The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel – Northern War adaptation is going to be excellent; we know it because Tatsunoko Production studio has taken up the task of making the series. Tatsunoko Production is best known for its previous works, such as Neon Genesis Evangelion and Psycho-Pass 2.
It is a fantasy, action military theme anime, and we have already checked out the trailer; it looks pretty promising as an anime adaptation; the voice actors have done a phenomenal job at delivering the characters’ emotions. If you have yet to play the game, do not worry because you will still be able to catch up on everything since the plot is not heavily derived from the game. The makers have made a few changes to the adaptation, and the characters and plot will be the main focus of this series.
