Soukyuu no Fafner ...which means Dead Agressor. lol. A quiet Japanese island is suddenly thrown into turmoil. The peaceful lives of the island’s boys and girls are shattered. Their world is ripped open by a giant alien yelling, “Are you there?” It is said, if you answer, you will be destroyed. There is a raging war “outside” that they never knew. Their serene isolated world has become an island fortress, the world’s last stand against the alien invaders. Two boys come forward to protect their home with mecha called “Fafner”. Kazuki Makabe is a standoffish boy with a mysterious genetic problem. Soshi Minashiro is a very compassionate person who treats everyone as equals. Kazuki gave him the scar over his eye when they were younger. His father is the most influential person on the island. Kinda reminded me of Gundam Seed. ^_^"

mmmm Soukyuu no Fafner doesn't mean dead agressor lol well i'm not sure wat soukyuu means but fafner was in norse myths. depending on the story u hear his either a giant or a dwarf. they mention it a bit in the first few episodes i think basicly how the story goes is fafnar and his brother kill and steal there fathers gold but fafnar ends up taking all the gold and he eventually turns into a dragon to protect the gold or something like that danstu the wolf ur talking about is fenris (yea theres different ways to spell the name ^^') and kills odin = / and yea Kazuki (guy with orange shirt) does look like athrun doesn't he i think i pointed that out in the gundam seed topic = /

I didn't even know ragnarok had anything to do with norse myths, i kinda assumed it was just a name the developer picked cause they thought it sounds cool. I was talking about the myths, not the game.

lol i thought u were refering to the game i never played it b4 so i wouldn't noe lol i was reading a bit about ragnarok online and i thinks its only very VERY loosely based on the norse myths anyway this is kinda getting off topic lol another interesting thing though if u watch Soukyuu no Fafner is that theres a thing called the siegfried system (no idea wat it does btw) siegfried was the name of the guy who killed fafnar : / man i so wish there was a topic in school bout myths... i would so choose that subject -_- i noe theres histroy but thats not really bout myths i kinda think its interesting how Soukyuu no Fafner uses norse myths acatully but to b honest i thought the first few eps were boring
