Let's Suffer: Drakengard | Episode 1
5Once upon a time, the only interaction I ever had with Yoko Taro was the flawed masterpiece that is Nier. It was a simpler time then... But due to the announcement of Nier: Automata, it seemed only fitting that I learn more about the series that it all spawned from: Drakengard. Thus began my painful... painful journey... through this weirdo landscape where literally everyone is an asshole.
I suffered. Now you can suffer with me.

Drakengard, known as Drag-On Dragoon in Japan, is a series of action role-playing video games. The eponymous first game in the series was released in 2003 on the PlayStation 2, and has since been followed by a sequel, a prequel and a spin-off. It was conceived by Takamasa Shiba and Takuya Iwasaki as a gameplay hybrid between Ace Combat and Dynasty Warriors 2. The story was created by Shiba, Iwasaki, Yoko Taro and Sawako Natori, who were influenced by European folklore and popular anime series and movies of the day. Shiba, Yoko and Sawako have had involvement in every entry of the series since its debut.
The setting of the main series is a Northern European-style dark fantasy world where humans and creatures from myth and legends live side by side, while the spin-off game is set in an alternative reality leading from one of the first game's possible endings. The stories generally focus on the fortunes and personalities of a small group of protagonists either directly or indirectly connected to and affected by the events of the story. Dark or mature plot and character themes and multiple endings have become a staple of the series. Their popularity in Japan has resulted in multiple adaptions and additional media in the form of novelizations and manga.
