7 Anime That Need Their Own JRPG
7 Anime That Need Their Own JRPG
Embedded Files
We recently had the genius idea of musing upon, in the year two thousand twenty and two Anno Domini, which Japanese Play Rolling Games demand their own Final Fantasy VII Advent Children; Ones without Clouds and Sephiroths but instead Squalls and Seifers, Koses and Moses.
Technically, technically! Technically, Final Fantasy 7 Advent Children is an anime film (though maybe not spiritually) which lead us to an equally brain dead futility exercise that people have been Imagineering on Twitter, online forums before that, and in their own thought realms since the dawn of time; imagining What Anime would make good JRPGs.
We’re gonna have fun with this though, throw some curveballs, reach deep into the slimly stupid crannies of our admittedly smooth brains and whip up a list like you’ve done never seen.
And yes, we both used two semicolons and started a sentence with 'and' in this introduction. Gawrsh.

We’re blasting off to the stratosphere with our focus-group untested answer of The Vision Of Escaflowne!
A lush, atmospheric mid 90s tale marrying romance, robots, and realms (of the fantastic persuasion); Yes folks, The Vision of Escaflowne is Final Fantasy VI if FF6 lifted off its Final Fantasy III shaped cartridge and ascended into the realm of classic paper and pen animation.
Covering so many bases, it’s easy to imagine the series and a delicious Valkyrie Profile Playstation 1 RPG, one of those clumsy but well-meaning Xbox 360 JRPGs, or even some FromSoftware monstrosity!
Actually, that last idea would rock; we could ring a Souls game out of the fantasy elements but finally get that next Armored Core game with the robots.
Now we’re cooking! With Gas!!

There’s already a great Magic Knight Rayearth video game, in fact some of you may only know it as a video game, but of course we have to milk CLAMP for this stupid list, because let’s face it Manga Knowers Be Knowing that all they’ve done in the last two decades is exhaustively milk their own hits.
But when you’ve created, uh, Chobits (and Card Captor Sakura we GUESS) you’ve earned it!
And we’ve earned, like, a 3DS Shin Megami Tensei Soul Hackers a-like romp out of this urban-gothic not-quite-a-classic!
Stuff me with nondescript weird psychic energy!

Just give me Persona 3 but it’s Toradora and there’s not Tartarus you just go around talking to people the whole damn time but it’s still fully rendered in Playstation 2ity.

With it’s majestic Princess Mononokean beasts called Kirin, tense political tensions that play out across 12 distinct nations in a slightly phan tas tic al ancient-asian realm, and, y’know, swords, the classic light novel turned cult hit anime would make for perfect questing and plotting in either the classic Jay Are Pee Gee fashion or you could even make it an Ess Jay Are Pee Gee…
Oh, oh wait…
they, they made some games of this on the PS2 huh….
Screw it just do up Princess Mononoke in Unreal 4 and slap a $70 label on it, you’d slurp it down.

Sorry not looking up to see how many SNES Yu Yu Hakusho games already exist we’re just going to pretend they don’t.
Someone should make a Super Famicomical Yu Yu Haksuho full of gurgling green and poisonous purple chubby sprite delinquents but after the first third of the game playing out with your classic Dragon Quested battle systems, it just turns into Guilty Gear for the tournament arcs.

Sorry, we just put this one in here for SEO and algorithmic purposes.

Kind hearted old man robot saves world from teenage jerk wad robot.
Give it to me.
Give it to me on the Vita.
Make it one of those weird B budget Vita games that make you want to believe the Vita was a better system than it was.
You might think it’s Boomer propaganda, but it’s actually Gen X propaganda.
Maybe that’s worse.
