Popolocrois (TV series)

Last updated

Popolocrois Monogatari is a Japanese animated television series based on the manga by Yohsuke Tamori, broadcast on TV Tokyo. Two series were produced, the first following the defeat of the Ice Demon and the second set fifteen years after Maira's defeat. The second series introduces Pinon, son of Pietro and Narcia, and adapts the PlayStation 2 games Popolocrois: A New Departure and Popolocrois: Enchanted Lunar Tale.

Characters

Pietro PakaPuka is the son of King Paulo and Sania, a daughter of the Ryu clan. He has blond hair and, unlike the game, wears the clothes from the first two PlayStation games and the PSP game, without a cape or crown. Though he appears ten years old due to his childish personality, he cares deeply for the kingdom. Narcia can fly without a broom and has a crush on Pietro; she has a less childish personality than him.

With her Golden Key, Narcia can transform into Kai, though they have a split personality—Narcia becomes Kai when deeply shy or frightened, but usually prefers to be herself. Kai is a human-like form that appears early in the first episode as Tobikera, a striped dragon form seen in Kai's attack Dino. Kai refers to herself as Narcia and speaks about Narcia's knowledge in a different manner. Shirokishi, meaning White Knight, travels to find the King Knight Sword.

He speaks in an old-samurai dialect, shows great respect toward Pietro and Narcia, is highly skilled in swordsmanship, and is kind and helpful. Hyuu appeared mysteriously in Flornel Forest after GamiGami Maou failed to transfer his castle with Popolocrois castle, opening a way for Hyuu, Sanda, and Ston.

She has blue hair with ponytails on each side and one in the back, and bears a mysterious Wind-kind crest on her chest. Hyuu is selfish and insists wind-kinds should be alone and free, but she desires affection. GamiGami is under a love spell toward Hyuu, but she wants to be with Pietro and stay with him forever.
