It’s hard to take his tragic past seriously when the show often glosses over it for attempted comedy.įerris is an even bigger joke than Ryner. Even then, most of what little backstory he has is in the later parts of the show. Ryner’s lack of personality outside his laziness can be made up for with his background, but the show’s storytelling often jumps back and forth from present day to flashback without any tell it’s done so, making it hard to follow. And this happens more than once.īut Ryner and Ferris’ relationship is harmless compared to the threads in the rest of the show. And even if this scene did work, they go back into being a weightless comedy duo until the story demands their sentiments again. Ferris blushes maybe once before this while Ryner shows no interest in her at all. This scene of clichés doesn’t work since there’s a lack of tells on their progress. After she manages to get through to him, Ryner breaks down and starts crying in her arms as the rain suddenly pours. In one of the show’s scenes, Ryner is going out of control for plot reasons while Ferris is trying to snap him out of it. Their relationship goes in a circle, or maybe it’s a see-saw I don’t care, but neither do the writers. Their relationship is 70% one running joke and 30% serious moments with no real progress between them, because they’re only sentimental when the show calls for it. Much of the show follows Ryner and Ferris’ adventures, meaning much of that time focuses on their relationship, which is Ferris calling Ryner a pervert for no reason Ryner doesn’t so much as see a pantyshot from Ferris, so it’s not even clichéd in the way it should be, but outright unbelievable. Unfortunately, this scene is a running gag throughout the show that turns the Ryner and Ferris duo from simple to cringeworthy. The lazy Ryner and steadfast Ferris aren’t anything beyond that in the first episode, with the only noticeable interplay between them being a scene where Ferris calls Ryner a pervert. The story opens with two of the three main characters, the wizard Ryner and the knight Ferris, as they journey across the continent of Menoris in search of powerful Hero Relics to aid our third main character, the High King of Roland, Sion. But instead of creating a brainless fantasy flick for dumb people like myself, the show adopts a taste for complexities with writing that leaves a bad taste. First impressions from the title alone gave a sense it was trying too hard to be epic, but that didn’t matter since I expected “Legend of the Legendary Heroes” to be a fun, clichéd romp. I often think that as long as I know what to expect from a show, it couldn’t disappoint me.
