posted on by Rafael Antonio Pineda
Philippine digital channel Yey! aired a teaser ad last Saturday revealing that it will start airing the Tears to Tiara 2009 TV anime on Saturday, July 18. The trailer features the anime's Tagalog dub.
The anime series is based on AQUAPLUS' 2005 adult PC game of the same name. AQUAPLUS released a PlayStation 3 version of the game in 2008 with all adult content removed. AQUAPLUS released a sequel titled Tears to Tiara II: Haō no Matsuei (Tears to Tiara II: Descendants of the Overlord) in Japan in 2013, and NIS America released the game last October in North America, and last November in Europe.
The original game and anime's story centers on Arawn, a demon king who is summoned by a failed human sacrifice of Riannon, the Gael princess. He leads the Gael people in a resistance against the Divine Empire alongside the swordsman Arthur, Riannon's sister, as well as a party of warriors, Imperial turncoats, and magical beings.
The anime premiered in 2009, and Animax Asia simulcast the anime alongside Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood as the channel's first two anime series that aired on the same day and week as they aired on Japan.
