Kingkiller Chronicles
The Kingkiller Chronicles was made for anime. It’s got a complex magic system, colorful characters, an amazing setting, beautiful music, and insane fight scenes.
The series follows Kvothe, a renowned musician, scholar, and adventurer now living as a rural innkeeper, as he recounts his past adventures. His history is an interesting one focused on revenge, as he tried to find out more about the Chanderian — a cult-like, malevolent group that killed his family.
During his travels, he attended a magical school, learned more about music, and attempted to unlock the secrets of the world. It’s an amazing tale full of wonder and mystery.
The only knock against the series is that it’s been forever since the last book was released. As such, fans might not be too thrilled if we had another Game of Thrones or Fullmetal Alchemist situation on our hands.
Getting to see Kvothe, the Chanadrin, and the setting in animated format would quell those worries immediately, though, as it is hard not to get lost in its well-crafted setting and beautiful prose.
