  • There's an Anime based on an Australian story, who knew? Deltora Quest was originally an Australian Children's Novel Series written by a woman in Sydney called Emily Rodda, and it was later adapted into an Anime. I think this is a little insane, so I made a whole video about it.

    I wish you had mentioned the other two Deltora Quest book series (which were never adapted), and the other books connected to them, The Three Doors trilogy, the Star of Deltora series, the Tales of Deltora book, the Deltora Book of Monsters. But you can't get to everything in one video, I know that. So with that in mind, this is a really good video! Oh, and Rowan of Rin is also part of the same world, although it's not clear in those books.
    The books are way better than the anime, but some of the episodes worked really well. I love the books so much. Rodda's books are a master class in plot and character while being very straightfoward and simply written. She also tackles contemporary issues quite well, more so in the second and third series. Which were also more detailed and longer. Though the longest and most detailed, I'd say, were the Three Doors books. I don't like the character designs much in the anime though, except Barda and the Torans.

    • @KyleEntertainment
      @KyleEntertainment  5 лет назад +6

      I've never read any of her series' in full, that's why I didn't really talk about any of the books. We read the first Rowan of Rin in school, the Three Doors I read a bit of the first one, and I've read the first 2 Deltora Quest books, and I tried picking up the second series after I finished the anime 10 years ago. But I did read summaries of the other 2 Deltora Quest series and they seemed interesting.

    Thank you for driving the point across how insane this concept is because I rarely see it talked about. I grew up on Toonami as a kid and loved anime, then discovered these books around the same time. My small 8-year-old mind was blown to discover that my two worlds collided and there was an anime series. And I was further shocked by how faithful the adaptation is! Again, awesome video.

    I may just be a sheep herder lol, but I still love this show and it too was my childhood, tho sadly not apart of my education Hahaha, your video was interesting I always realized that this show was different to other anime and cartoons and so it always drew my interest and I can't even count the amount of times I've rewatched the show and never gotten sick of it even a little, tbh I recently even forced my younger brother to watch it with me and he quite enjoyed it, it was quite fun teasing him about the twist of leafs dad and doom (gonna try lesson spoilers) were actually in opposite positions before the show revealed it when he was constantly guessing who the heir was lol. I had heard that deltora quest was related to Australians somehow but it never hooked my interest, but I'm glad I saw your video, always glad to learn more about the show, and even tho they were only bonus episodes I definitely enjoyed just that bit of icing after the show with the group going around and hunting down the last of the ols. I'm curious why you didn't mention the second season of the novels? Do you know about them? Do you like or dislike them? Are you saving that content for another video? Would you like a boosted graphics enhancement of the show or do you believe it should remain pure?

  • @sailorpickles
    @sailorpickles 4 года назад +9

    You know, Deltora Quest was so ingrained into my childhood I didn't even realise that Emily Rodda was Australian, literally living like 2 hours from me. Like the fact that it probably wasn't sold or was as well known in other counties is hard to fathom honestly. And it's funny too, Cartoon Network also had other anime like Naruto, Dragon Ball, Pokemon, Beyblade and Bakugan. However, Deltora Quest is the one I remember the most, even out of those big-name anime.

    We were doing Deltora Quest during primary school and we. Did the same thing, we’d read about one of the gems and then watch the show for what we’ve read. We made it to the Lake of Tears, we were at the part where they just met Saldeen, and we were watching it and the final bell of the year went and I have never been able to watch it since. Sometimes I just fucking love my recommended, cheers Kyle.

    I never read the actual book of Deltora Quest, but I definitely watched and loved the anime series of Deltora Quest on tv as a kid. As a kid back then, I was really invested in the story of a young boy going on a adventure finding the gems, while battling cool looking mystical knights, monsters and more. The Shadow Lord is what I remember the most, I thought he so terrifying which he is one of the reasons why I really watched the show, and I remember me and my older brother getting so excited for the finale of the show. I had such a good time watching this series as a kid and now I as a 18 year old looking back at it, I still think it's cool. Good memories I've had.

    I've always loved this series as an American child, and only as I'm writing this, I realize that I first encountered it when I lived in Japan. Huh. Anyways, I was aware of the anime, and watched it when it came to The Hub, as, on the U.S. Air base in Okinawa, that was the only channel that played it as what I now realize were reruns. I learned much later after rediscovering the series all over again, (I never forgot it, but decided out of nowhere to buy the entire set and read every one of them) that the author was Australian, and it wasn't until yet later that I learned how weird it was that it spread so far, especially to Japan. All this to say, I never once considered that this really is The Australian Anime.

    Goddamn I wish my primary school used Deltora Quest as an English study Q_Q We read Rodda's other work Rowan of Rin instead. I was already a huge Deltora Quest fanatic at that time, I would have aced that subject so hard. And I had bought all 4 official DVDs at the time and I'm glad to own them even now because I often go back and rewatch it and surprisingly, the story still holds up aside from being cornier as an adult lol.
    I've recently rewatched it in Japanese too to see if it's any better and surprisingly, both sub and dub are pretty even, maybe with the dub being slightly better. Both of the voice acting sounds decent but still also corny, but I actually think the dub had a MUCH better use of soundtrack and sound effects. Scenes that were silent or had odd bg music choices in the sub were awkward meanwhile in the dub, they add fitting music and I honestly prefer the English soundtrack over the Japanese, since they're both different from each other. Also the dub does add a bit more flavour to the dialogue for me, like making certain lines feel more casual and less stiff, and even adding back and forths that were never present in the Japanese version (which I especially noticed in the Jasmine vs Doom fight, there was a conversation in a scene that was originally silent). And there are points in the Japanese version where the voice acting lowkey doesn't match how it's animated and the dub actually does it better 0_0
    Also weirdly enough, the Japanese version changed some names. Steven is Lucas, Nevets is Scar and Doom is 'Joker' (which is absolute blasphemy, dude has the coolest name already). And Lief's Bushtown alias was Cherry instead of Twig. But if you watch the Japanese version made by ToranSubs, I love their little notes to clarify them using book-accurate names instead of a direct translation.
    But I remember way back when, discovering the post-climax episodes on youtube and being so floored to hear a Delta Goodrum song as the opening, I initially thought it was some kind of edit made by the poster, it was just so hard to believe at first because that's so cool!
