Um... anime? There is no anime that I know of... or is nippon1 secretly making one? ^_^'
Oh, and the main characters (Laharl) father supposedly choked on a 'black pretsel' I think it was or
something, though not a black donut for sure. Would have even more hilarious though ^_^'
Hm, was his father name really Dracula? Either it was something else or they never mentioned it I think 8p
... Oh yeah right the game, almost forgot about it ^_^' Right, now as stated above you are this demon-dude called
Laharl and basically you are going to fight off your competitors and claim your fathers throne and title for yourself ,
namely the title of Overlord :)
It's a very fun and entertaining game, I'd recommend it to practically everyone :)
For a bit more info, you could always check out IGN or Gamespot, they usually make good reviews.
