Whoever put the trailer for the Disgaea anime with Disgaea 2 is my hero.

Of course it's a trailer, so it's biased, but it looks utterly in keeping with the spirit of the game. I'm glad they retained the original voice actors for most of the main characters -- their acting is a little campy and over the top, but I dare you to find words that describe Disgaea better anyway. Especially Laharl's voice actor. She's just awesome.

"Etna, my castle fell down again, fix it for me."

One thing that I liked about the trailer is that, in the game, while the demons (Laharl particularly) were supposed to be utter badasses, the mechanics didn't reflect that. They ate damage and did attacks just like ordinary party members, and if they dropped the occasional comet or dozen Prinnies on the enemy, well, that was just another attack. In the anime, though, they really get to have fun.

And Prinny Raid made me laugh my ass off.

I'm... almost certain the anime will end up disappointing, but man, the trailer was fun.
