Chrono Trigger (Anime - remake)

Post by Chrono_Misjudged »

I downloaded a 2 minutes and 38 seconds Chrono Trigger (Anime - remake) video from internet in which I watched publicity from this site (SquareGamer), In fact this made me join to this forum. I'm interested in find out whether this has been created by Akira Toriyama (The original creator of the Chrono Trigger characters) or by another artist.

Specially, I want to Know if this video belongs to a Chrono Trigger Anime's series (maybe created as result of the great success of the videogame with the same name) or an Intro of a newer RPG adaptation game of Chrono Trigger (originally playable in Super Famicon or Super Nintendo).

If it belonged to an Anime, I'd rather to know about it ( When was it made?, How many chapters Does it contain?, Where Can I buy or download it?, Which Are the languages I can find it in?, etc... )

That would be great if I was replied about this issue.

Thanks.

Postscript: Please, Excuse me If my English isn't quite good. Take into account that I'm from Spain (In spain The English Language isn't used as regularly as other European countries do) and now I´m studyng English in order to obtain The first Certificate (maybe like a medium level English)

It's an ova, one small thing, and it's just a spoof for laughs and giggles.

Excuse me, but You're wrong about this issue I mentioned. You're referring to a "silly thing" (from my point of view) that a lot of people downloaded, a small video, that has nothing to do which what I meant, in which appeared "Nu" (this sleepyhead creature in Chrono Trigger that seems to be the begining and the end of Everything) making silly things, making crazy car races with Jhony, etc...
When I downloaded it, for the first seconds I laughed, but when I watched it for a few minutes, I moved it directly towards the Recycle Bin of my computer and after disappeared completely for ever and so as not to see never ever this silly thing!

I thought there was no point in keep that file, every wise man had taken the same decision.
On my opinion, many followers of Chrono Trigger game, felt betrayed seing this aberration that has nothing to do with the original story and they probably thought "There!" and that it was an insult for the original game and story.

Then, what I was referring in the last post was a original video of Chrono Trigger with the very same main characters from the videogame, with the very same situations of the game (Luca and Robo fighting against robots in the future, Chrono and Glenn against the Monster result of Merge that boney soldiers on Zenan Bridge in 600 AD, Ayla riding a Dactyl,etc ), the same music from the game,etc...

Honest? I don't understand what you mean. I think Honesty hasn't nothing to do with what I was mentioning.

What Do you mean? I don't quite understand. Could you speak in an English easier (I'm Spanish)?

Damien, you aren't telling me something Honest o Dishonest, I think you are telling me odd things, very strange things as the pyjamas' aliens are.

"To be honest" is an expression.
It means I'm admitting that I've never seen this Chrono trigger OVA that everybody keeps asking about.

Btw, tripple-posting is a nono :nono

Excuse me, Damien, at that hours of the night I´m a litle bit confused also with that easy to understand sentence. The next time, I´ll try to read more slowly and carefully what you post

Does 'Chrono Brake' exist as a follow-up in the Chrono sequels?
or it's just a rumour? Is S-E going to develop another Chrono game?

Changing the subject, I want to buy some CT guide, the kind of V-jump Shueisha guides. It's possible to buy them from eBay. I want to find out If someone know something about this issue and is able to advise me. Furthermore I don't either know which guide to buy, since there are three:

- Super Famicom Players Guide * V-Jump, Shueisha, 1995 * 152 pages, 1 mini poster

- "The Perfect" Super Famicom Players Guide * V-Jump, Shueisha, 1995 * 290 pages

- "The Complete" Playstation Players Guide * V-Jump, Shueisha, 1999 * 226 pages

I'd like to buy the one which contains more original art by character designer Akira Toriyama.

Do Anyone Know which of these guides contain more original art by character designer Akira Toriyama?

By the way, Did you Know that one of these guides has 10 coloured pages from the unique licensed CT manga?

what I don't know if exist more pages from this manga (anime) or as well as these, they launched to the market a lot of numbers like any other weekly or Monthly Manga sold in any Comic Shop. Maybe it only exists these 10 pages. Probably it only exists these 10 pages if we think that in V-jump Magazine appear a lot of short manga stories based in its own announced RPGs.

I'm pretty sure the idea of making a sequel called Chrono Break was abandoned years ago. However, you might be interested in Chrono Cross, which was released on PS1 back in 2000 (never released in Europe obviously). Though the story is quite different and the design is not by Toriyama anymore, it's by Nobuteru Yuuki (Vision of Escaflowne, Chronicles of Lodoss War OAVs,...)

As for the guide, you can probably find it on EBay. But if you don't I suggest you contact Flazh. He hasn't posted on SG for ages but he might be able to find that guide for you.

Post by Chrono_Misjudged »

I hardy understand jokes in this language. I have to say that I used to like Mighty Max and Star Gate series. :D

However, nowadays I like Chrono Trigger and Chrono Trigger. :D
And I watched too, one serie named Doctor Who, but I can't remember this very well.

What Does my signature mean?

Post by Chrono_Misjudged »

Changing the subject, Could anyone translate this sentence "Every night will have a day. Even forever has to come to an end...I think..." that I use like a signature ?
( It's from CT Dream project ending and belongs to Masato Kato)
I mean, if anyone is able to explain or translate this sentence that I can't understand.

postscript: Anyone Know Where (in Ebay I suposse) I can buy one of these CT Guides I mentioned before? There used to be a lot of them in ebay, but now I can find any of them no longer!!! :(

Thanks a lot Calb rena. Maybe it doesn't make much sense, it's a very enigmatic sentence. By the way, What about CT guides? I want to buy the perfect one.

"Every night will have a day. Even forever has to come to an end...I think..."
It does make some sense, I think. It's a bit like this "every cloud has a silver lining" phrase (no hay mal que por bien no venga?) : after night comes day, and nothing lasts forever - even eternity.
It is a bit paradoxical, obviously, since eternity is supposed, by definition, to last forever. But it means eternity doesn't really exists in practice : everything ends eventually.
It is a rather hopeful phrase: after a dark long (seemingly endless) night will eventually come a bright new day. You could look at it the other way around : every good things must come to an end. It's like the "is the glass half-full or half-empty?" problem. But Masato Kato chosed to use an optimistic phrasing.
It is supposed to sound mysterious and philosophical, and you might try to interpret it in the Chrono Trigger context (does it refer to the End of Times, for instance?), but I think it's just a way to say the game is finished :) (a fitting comment for an ending, then)
That's all folks, Fin, The End, I'm very happy if you have enjoyed :p

I don't know where you can find a CT guide these day. Seems to be becoming a rare thing even on Ebay :/

I found a Chrono Trigger guide on ebay right off, but it isn't in new condition :/
Best bet would be to bookmark Ebay, or set it up to send you alerts when one is listed.

remembering that sentence...

Post by Chrono_Misjudged »

Speaking of that sentence of Masato Kato, I think if nothing lasts forever, is becoming clear that even C.T. has to come to an end sooner or later giving way to better games :)
