Line 4: {{quote\|''Will you kill someone you love, because of love?''\|The show's [[Arc Words]]}} ~~This~~The anime series '''''Ga-Rei Zero''''' serves as a [[Prequel]] to the manga, ''[[Ga-Rei]]''. It depicts the life of Yomi before her [[Start of Darkness\|fall to evil]], and her strong sisterly bond to Kagura. The two girls' relationship is the central focus of the story, emphasizing why Kagura's heart often wavers while fighting Yomi throughout the course of the original manga. Its tone is considerably different from that of the manga, making the anime more [[Seinen]] than [[Shonen]]. The show is probably most notable for throwing off viewers with its first two episodes by {{spoiler\|[[Everybody's Dead, Dave\|killing everyone off]]}}. The focus is instead on Yomi, making a character who was originally a rather average villain into a highly sympathetic, tragic heroine. Licensed by [[Funimation]] in August 2010 and released to DVD and Blu-Ray in April 2011. {{tropelist}} Line 24: * {{spoiler\|[[Asshole Victim]]: Yomi's uncle}} * [[BFG]]: The Nabuu brothers. * [[Back ~~From~~from the Dead]]: {{spoiler\|Yomi returns as an evil spirit in the [[Ga-Rei]] manga.}} ** Even more than that; look on the [[Ga-Rei]] page under {{spoiler\|[[Split Personality]]}}. * [[Back-to-Back Badasses]]: Yomi and Kagura. Line 67: * [[Doomed by Canon]]: Since this is a prequel, there's quite a high body count. * [[Dude, Where's My Reward?]]: Evil Yomi. They're good reasons for her [[Face Heel Turn]]. * [[Episode Zero: ~~the~~The Beginning]] * [[Everybody's Dead, Dave]] * [[Expy]] "Natsuki Kasuga", a badass, black haired biker girl. Certainly doesn't sound like a character from [[~~Mai~~My-HiME]] [[Sarcasm Mode\|at all]]... Don't forget that she's paired with a guy who wields duel pistols.:P Slightly more tenuous are the similarities between Yomi and Arashi from [[X 1999]] {{spoiler\|or more a fusion of her and Fuuma, especially when later developments in Ga-Rei are taken into account}}. Line 189: ** {{spoiler\|Yomi's love for Kagura is what allows her to be killed by Kagura as her greatest desire was to protect Kagura}} * [[The Squad]]: ''Two'' squads. * [[The War Room]]▼ * [[This Is Your Brain on Evil]]: {{spoiler\|The Bane Stone does this to anyone who gets caught by it's 'pure' form. Yomi managing to break past it in the end counts as a [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming]].}} * [[Twelve-Episode Anime]] * [[Tragic Hero]]: The final fate of those who wield Ga-Rei, but especially Yomi. * [[Trauma-Induced Amnesia]]: {{spoiler\|Kiri}} reverts to the personality of a little girl after getting stabbed in the gut by {{spoiler\|Yomi}}. Line 196: * [[Unstoppable Rage]]: {{spoiler\|Yomi's reaction when Mei told her that she killed Yomi's foster father, and tortured him in the progress.}} * [[Vasquez Always Dies]]: {{spoiler\|Yomi. Poor Yomi.}} ▲* [[The War Room]] * [[We Have Reserves]] * [[Wham! Episode]]: {{spoiler\|How many shows have one of these for their ''very first episode?''}} Line 210 ⟶ 211: {{reflist}} [[Category:{{PAGENAME}}]] [[Category:Anime]] [[Category:~~Ga-Rei~~Shonen ~~Zero~~Demographic]] [[Category:Funimation]] [[Category:Twelve-Episode Anime]]
