At a kendo match, 17-year-old high school student Kyoji is stunned when Tate, his coach, momentarily transforms into an exotically armored warrior. Over the next few days, Tate behaves erratically, alarming his students and his fiancée, Yuka. Kyoji discovers he, Tate, and their friends are the reincarnated spirits of Inca warriors. But Kyoji is Bilka and Tate is Yawaru--enemies in a blood feud dating back to the Spanish conquest of Peru. Yuka and Kyoji travel to South America, hoping to find the missing Tate--and figure out what's going on. Their visit leads to more flashback episodes. The Matthew Broderick-esque Kyoji looks particularly incongruous in a trailing feather headdress; his friend Daimon is tricked out in a rig that looks more Arabian than Peruvian. The improbable plot gets a boost from some handsome computer-generated imagery, including an animated version of a Nazca Line figure and a golden fortress modeled after a ceremonial Inca knife. Using the different media to suggest separate worlds works more effectively than the combinations of drawn and computer animation in many Japanese films. But the idea of Japanese high school students as reincarnated Inca warriors seems farfetched, even by anime standards. Contains the first three episodes: 1. "Those Who Awaken," 2. "Reunion in the Andes," 3. Meeting of the Sleeping Souls." Rated 13 and up for violence, profanity, and brief nudity. --Charles Solomon

Customer Reviews of Nazca - Blades of Fate (Vol. 1)

good fantasy anime
This is a well done, intelligent fantasy. I didn't find the plot to be particularly slow-moving at all [of course, I wasn't expecting explosions and battles and naked chicks every five seconds: your definition of "slow plot" may vary]. I didn't care for the CGI/animation mix that was done in certain parts -- it wasn't seamless and I found it to be distracting; the character animation however is quite pleasing and their Incan warrior incarnations I thought especially well-designed [historical innacuracies and all -- this *is* a fantasy, you'll recall]. The opening JS Bach tune by Eccentric Opera is a nice change from the usual j-pop.

Overview: intelligent dialogue and good looking guys fighting each other in nifty costumes.. works for me! :)


Nothing special.
This anime isn't one of the best I've ever seen. It's your ordinary person in a fantastic role, forced to become a hero in a good vs. evil struggle. In Nazca, a group of Japanese citizens discover they were Incan warriors in a past life. Sound far-fetched? Their awakening souls start ruling their being, and friends become enemies. Will the good student be able to stop his now evil kendo teacher from unleashing the power of creation on the world?

The creators of this anime thought it would be a good idea to mesh computer generated scenes in with the animation. It wasn't a good idea. The characters look out of place and distorted whenever the CG backgrounds are used.

Nazca is an all right story, but you can pretty much guess how it's going to end. I don't feel it's worth purchasing 4 DVD's to see the entire saga.


A Bomb
The animation was only improved by haveing CG added. Otherwise back to saturday morning cartoons. The music is top notch, even though it was a remix of Johann Sabastian Bach it was very well done, I think he would approve. The plot, silly, but that's just anime. The pace...somebody SHOOT ME!! My God, can you draw it out any longer?! The whole thing could have been fininshed on the first CD!! And it does get preachy, but then again that is the same with all Anime, eco/political/social/american bashing is the norm in almost all anime from Japan. It gets two stars for music and CG animation, that's all.
