    Dragon Quest - Dai no Daibouken

    Synopsis

    A long time ago, there was a valiant swordsman who came to be known simply as "the hero." There was a demon who has caused people suffering. The hero and his companions arrived to challenge the demon to a battle and by combining their powers, the battle was brought swift conclusion. With no one around to cause trouble, the island became a quiet place where everyone could live together in peace.

    Several years later, the demon is revived. Our present-day protagonist, Dai, lives on a remote island in the southern seas and dreams of becoming a great hero. When he hears about the demon's revival, Dai and his friends take it upon themselves to stop him and the evil force that revived him. Along the way, Dai discovers the identity of "the hero," the truth behind the evil force who revived the demon, and Dai's own hidden powers that surface in times of peril.

    So, is this a remake that you're aware of?

    How did this one turn out? Does it feel like Boruto with a different setting, or is an actual exciting story that goes somewhere and is worth watching?

    Well, it's not Boruto, but it's pretty oldschool hero stuff. The manga for this ended before Naruto and One Piece even existed. No crazy twists or sudden dark turns or anything.

    Watching this and Invincible at the same time, I'm really getting filled up on evil mustache dad content.

    Well, I got to listen to DIO and Freeza banter back and forth. That was pretty fun.

    96 episodes, 0 discussion.

    So is this a must-watch at this point or is it only for hardcore-DQ-fans?

    Only for hardcore DQ fans.

    And even then, they don't spend nearly enough time interacting with iconic DQ monsters. The last 40 episodes or so they've pretty much just been fighting the main villains, and those are all anime OCs.

    Anyway, looks like we're about...20 chapters from the end. So probably less than 10 episodes left.
