CATDOLL: The prototype of "Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash" is a well-known RPG game. It is not easy to travel to another world.

Compared to other time-travel light novels, the story of "Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash" seems to be very realistic. The fantasy world is combined with a group of ordinary people who are not originally destined to live a life of fighting and killing. You will see that "running into a different world and becoming invincible" is almost impossible. The original work of this work also comes from a game, and it is the very classic "Wizardry".

Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash

As the origin of all electronic RPG games, "Wizardry" influenced the birth of later Japanese games such as "Dragon Quest" and "Final Fantasy". In this game, the most basic game professions such as warriors, thieves, magicians, monks, etc. were established. Players must create their own adventure team and slowly advance into the maze behind step by step. Until now, this "exploration RPG" is still quite popular.

Wizardry

Why is there a connection between Grimgar and Wizardry? In fact, the subtitle of the first volume of the original work and the first episode of the animation, "ささやき、咏歌、り、目覚めよ (Whisper, chant, pray, wake up)", is the line in the game Wizardry where you return to the temple to revive your companions.

"ささやき、chant、prayer、目覚めよ"

If a companion fails to be resurrected, the body will turn into ash. In the fourth episode of "Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash", the characters did not bury the bodies, but let the ashes go with the wind. It can be seen that it was really influenced by "Wizardry".

Wizardry is also a very difficult RPG game. If you don't proceed with caution, your team will be wiped out. Isn't this the same as Haru and his friends who risked their lives to travel to another world? It can be seen that the author really doesn't think traveling to another world is a good thing...
