Record Of Lodoss War is a anime television program based off of a manga which was in its own turn based off of a role playing game. The television series bears some marked differences from its manga counterpart, mainly in regards to the characters that the plot centers around. In the manga the primary character is youthful but determined Knight named Parn whom seeks to uncover the mystery surrounding his father's sudden disappearance and reclaim the honor lost by it. However, in the anime the plot revolves around Parn only for the first eight episodes and then shifts to focus on the further adventures of his former companions and their own magical quests.
