Ryner comes off as lazy and unmotivated and rarely applies himself unless circumstances truly force his hand, in no small part because he laments his identity and refuses to risk killing anyone with his overwhelming powers. Making matters worse, Ryner and Ferris simply aren’t very interesting. Few beyond the core three and Sion’s inner circle at court get significant attention. There is a rival duo from another kingdom to challenge the pair, a small Roland squad led by a childhood friend of Ryner’s, other Alpha Stigma users, an old flame from Ryner’s past, and more. There is Lucile, Ferris’ brother, the seemingly invincible head of the king’s guard and a man of enigmatic goals. In fact the quest appears to be rather superfluous to the plot, being there mainly to establish the relationship between Ryner and Ferris and to help introduce additional characters, of which there are far too many. Unfortunately, Sion’s machinations and the quest of Ryner and Ferris come off as two stories told in parallel rather than interwoven parts of the same tapestry.

Those under his command have different agendas and ideas about how to best serve their king and the realm, and Sion soon finds himself constantly challenged on whether ends can justify the means. As the duo embark on their quest Sion labors to consolidate his position, but it’s not easy. Joining him is Ferris, a formidable swordswoman with a penchant for teasing or bullying our hapless hero. The present day plot begins with Ryner undertaking a journey to find “hero relics,” artifacts of great power from a prior age. But Sion doesn’t care and keeps Ryner’s Alpha Stigma a secret, and when he becomes king Ryner is at his service. Unfortunately, Alpha Stigma bearers are known for losing control and going berserk before they die at a young age, and those few with such ocular abilities are persecuted as monsters.

Ryner is more than a mage, though: he’s a bearer of the Alpha Stigma: “cursed” eyes that allow him to analyze magic and attack any caster with his or her own spell. We don’t get to see that story, though instead we witness Sion’s reign and some select moments from the past where he befriends Ryner, an exceptionally talented magician, at military academy. Once upon a time, the kingdom of Roland was ruled by a tyrant king until he was overthrown by Sion, an idealist and would-be reformer.

It alternates between a comedic and deadly serious tone to the point that it portrays Takaya Kagami’s successful light novel series as a work suffering from a profound identity crisis. It strives to tell a sweeping tale yet never feels epic. The Legend of the Legendary Heroes is the most unsatisfying fantasy anime that I have ever encountered.
