If you happen to see this comment at some point: Strongly consider getting the games, if you love RPGs you'll friggin ADORE this series. I was lucky and got into it when 12 games were already out, it's one of the greatest series of games ever. Start with Trails in the Sky 1, 2 and 3, then the Crossbell games 2 of them, then Cold Steel 1, 2, 3 and 4, onto Reverie and now the newest 2 games as of writing this. Seriously cannot recommend it enough!
@@NationChosenByGod I’m enjoying so far since this was a missing story in the Kiseki timeline I’m kinda glad it’s getting a anime instead a 100 hour game
@@LOREWITHBLAZER they are making a mobile game for this in collaboration from a game studio in Taiwan. It is probably a gacha game. Since the story was not written by falcom staff, this feels like a decent anime.
I'm really looking forward to it! Love the Trails of Cold Steel Game Series (and of course the whole The Legend of Heroes Game Series) and their Characters and deep story. My favorite JRPG of all time! :D
How ironic that I got into the series because I though it was an anime game, only to realize that the game wasn’t even base off an anime. Ironic that we are here in 2023 and it finally gets and anime 😄
Spoiler for people who haven’t play Cold Steel 3: Isn’t crow technically still dead during this time? Azur Siegfried only started to be sighted around Trails 3 story which is at least 4 months after this anime.
@user-be2cb8cx5x ***Spoilers*** He is technically dead. If I recall, Ouroboros took his body after they left the crimson tower and hid him in the gnome's lair where he was "ressurected" because of the azure knight. It's explained towards the end of ToCS IV.
@@georgeofazgad2176 Not spoiling a lot, but at the end it hints towards him becoming an instructor. If you watched the last episode you know what I mean.
Having played the legend of heroes trails series from Start (Trails in the Sky) - To finish (Trails of cold steel IV) at least as far as I am able localization wise (Hurry up guyz plz b0ss love u much) I LOVED seeing the little character cameos from across the series they slipped into the anime. It was also nice to get a proper storyline to see what Rean was up to more in depth between the ending of ToCS II and beginning of ToCS III.
What is the name of the song, or the artist who sings it. I'm tired of looking for it and I can't find either the name of the song or the person who sings it. 😢
The song name is literally in the title of the video my guy, its not that hard to look up the song name and the artist. Its called: The story so far by Chisato Akita
I'll just lie down in a corner, trying not to think of the absolute waste of potential that is this serie. Trails fans deserved WAY more, what a trainweck. Good OP tho.
If you plan to start it and know your way on the vita, there's a patch that voice more 10k lines from the PC ver, I reccomend at least finishing up to the 2nd cold steel game before watching this. Enjoy the journey, I also plan to play FFX at some point.
Its about an event that took place in between two JRPG games, where the main protag is basically the villian. It does have major endgame spoilers for previous games, so keep that in mind.
…wait, isn’t this supposed be a Game? Why is this on a Crunchyroll Channel? Unless it’s an Anime? If so, is it then a Anime that’s supposed to take place somewhere within the Timeline? Where exactly then?
@@Kaldigizthere’s some character we don’t even see like where’s Sara cause this was suppose to be her hometown plus it would fit with Rean and her since she can see how much he improve when he was her student
If you are seeing this comment in 2024 and are thinking about watching this anime, you should reconsider. Play the games instead, this series not only partially spoils 2 of the games (Trails of Cold Steel 1 and 2) but it's also really bad. The only somewhat saving grace of this anime is Winslet Lavian, the MC. And even then, it's only a decent character, not even a great one, but the rest of the series is so poorly made that it makes her look amazing by comparison (That and a couple Rean cameos).

Make that 3 newest games with Kai no Kiseki ~Farewell, O Zemuria~ coming out in Japan this year.
Seeing Rean animated is beyond amazing
Right?
Well we saw him animated in the openings for CS 3 and 4 but I get what you mean, we’re seeing him in actual anime episodes now and it’s amazing
The animation and story are decent at best.

Eight Leaves One Blade !
This is what I have been waiting to see, I'm here to see Rean for sure.
0:22 Valimar walking towards Haliask looks epic, especially with the cool sound effect at the start.

It did get an OVA before.
I can’t wait to watch this, I played all 4 cold steel games last year and enjoyed the hell out of them
Newcomer here just finished 2. Not very good at the gameplay, but i love the story and characters.
I like how they transition to Rean orgre form
Wow, I absolute can’t believe that this is true, but I really need to see my boy crow
I know right. One of the best boi
He's dead.🤡

This jrpg series has some of the deepest most in depth lore in any video game series ever. Play the trails games, you won't regret it.
To people asking, this anime is set between The Legend of Heroes Trails of Cold Steel 2 and 3.
So after the civil war but before rean becomes an instructor?
@@georgeofazgad2176yes
Yeah that’s between 2 and 3
@@georgeofazgad2176 Not spoiling a lot, but at the end it hints towards him becoming an instructor. If you watched the last episode you know what I mean.
While I like the protagonist of the anime, let's all admit that we really want to see Rean as soon as possible.
fr I get so hopeful every episode
I despise Rean and even I want to see him as soon as possible
Haha....
Can't wait to see him get traumatized again
@@sheridanmovieguy You can't add "haha" to the end of your sentences to hide your depression
To think that both Nier Automata and Trails of Cold steel get their own adaptations.
ermoso saluditos desde peru
This made the series look better than it really was
Did it? That anime is pretty bad, especially compared to the game that are straight masterpieces, best part was the cameo

Wait is Rean actually in this?
Awesome The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel Northern War Opening The story so far Video.
YES
The intro is fire!
*Second form gale*
Real good op
This has to be set between 2 and 3.
Thats because it is 😅
Cold Steel Northern War game global version coming May 29!
"Aren't you cold, sir?"
"Yes, but I need to wear my jacket like a cape."
Que buen op del anime 😍 , me gusto es perfecto
Watch the op of the cold steel games they are goat
This is random but I'm so glad Rean got his looks from his mother cause Jesus christ as powerful as Osborne is, he is freaking UGLY😭😭
Wut? What do you mean ugly? Osbourne is simply old. If anything he gracefully entered old age.
Imagine rean with beard and body of Bergard Zeman 😂
fav show this season
Alguém da cruchyroll pra me ajudar, n consigo conectar em minha conta, e a mensalidade está paga

The Legend of Heroes Trails of Cold Steel Northern War is amazing anime of 2023, such as between Nier:Automata, Spy Classroom and even Buddy Daddies.
I'll just lie down in a corner, trying not to think of the absolute waste of potential that is this serie. Trails fans deserved WAY more, what a trainweck.
Good OP tho.
Where is Bestelle
Even though the anime was extremely questionable, at least the op song was good
Guys this cover the first game is this? I have the game on my PS vita but didn't start yet because of final fantasy X the I start short ago
No. It's set between Cold Steel 2 and 3. It doesn't cover a game at all.
If you plan to start it and know your way on the vita, there's a patch that voice more 10k lines from the PC ver, I reccomend at least finishing up to the 2nd cold steel game before watching this. Enjoy the journey, I also plan to play FFX at some point.
@@sheridanmovieguy ohh thank gods I can play without spoilers
@@kentstopme the patch for voice is just for pc or vita too
Hm, this looks interesting, i wonder what’s it about?
That would take a very long time to explain.
Its about an event that took place in between two JRPG games, where the main protag is basically the villian. It does have major endgame spoilers for previous games, so keep that in mind.
@@TheRealMaruki hm, I see, interesting.
This opening is the best thing about this wasted potential anime that's trying to adapt a fantastic video game series.
…wait, isn’t this supposed be a Game? Why is this on a Crunchyroll Channel?
Unless it’s an Anime? If so, is it then a Anime that’s supposed to take place somewhere within the Timeline? Where exactly then?
This anime about Northen war. Action simlpy between Cold Steel 2 and 3. In Cold steel 3 a lot of talks about Northen war.
@@Kaldigiz ah, I see.
@@Kaldigizthere’s some character we don’t even see like where’s Sara cause this was suppose to be her hometown plus it would fit with Rean and her since she can see how much he improve when he was her student
@@PrincessTwilightdash ahem, there is Sara in this anime and she was in this conflict
@ I know but they should’ve had more screen time with her.

God this anime was complete garbage, so dissapointing. Better off just sticking to the games
looking bak on this OP a year later. God damn this anime was a huge waste of time. Its so BAD its not even MID ITS BAD.
Waste of a IP.
Cool opening, but terrible show... The trails franchise deserved better
Anime is a huge disappointment.
Аниме скорее как набор фансервиса для игроков в Трейлсы. На мой взгляд тот же Колд Стил 4 намного больше разочаровывает.
There’s bad games with good adaptation
There’s good games with bad adaptation
And there’s Trails of ColdSteel: Bad Game and Bad Adaptation
Low effort bait. This isn't an adaptation.
Not even an adaptation my guy. Try again
Ignorance proven.
Cold Steel series are good games, and this isn't an adaptation, but it's own story which wasn't covered by the games.
