Tower of Druaga feels a lot like .Hack/Sign & Ragnarok gone ecchi or crazy, of course, without the main character’s emoism and it doesn’t have a it’s a reverse trap ending. In addition, it features a pushover as main character and a Tower… a tower of Craziness and fanservice. Initially, I wasn’t sure what to make of Tower of Druaga ~The Aegis of Uruk~ (and I still not so sure) and I’ll explain why. In the first episode, the show made fun of the most common clichés in video games, mainly RPGs. For example, one of the party member saying that when he gets back to his hometown he’s going to get married before the party is about to face a tough enemy (obviously this implies that he’s going to very die soon!) Well guess what? turns out that nothing of that ever happened. The following eps the show tries to get all serious by introducing the rest of the characters and explaining what the heck was going on to me who had no idea what the show even was about besides from a certain Tower and someone named Uruk. Well, let’s talk about the characters and the story for a bit.
Jil is the protagonist of Tower of Druaga. He’s the typical hero type that fights for justice and to protect everyone. It couldn’t get more generic than and that’s why he doesn’t get a cool pic like the others. After he’s fired by his brother Neeba (lol) after he messed up on his first day and puts the party in danger he is sent back to town where he tries to get a party together to climb the tower of Druaga like all the other climbers to get his wish granted. Btw, Jil dies in the first episode and doesn’t come back to life until the show is over. Kaaya, on the other hand, isn’t so lucky. You see..
