Luminous Arc OPENING (HIGHEST QUALITY)

Opening from the great Nintendo DS tactical JRPG game Luminous Arc. I played this game back in 2007-2008 and enjoyed it a lot. I played Luminous Arc 2 back then as well, it was amazing too! A shame Luminous Arc 3 never got translated, not even a fan translation exists. I do own the game though. Yeah, the Japanese version. :D
I believe this is probably the highest quality of the opening you'll ever find unless you come across the official bonus DVD disc that came with some copies of the third game in Japan.
Ah, yes, I upscaled the video a lot to preserve the quality because KZbin keeps higher bitrate for 4K videos without butchering the picture. :)
Upd: I actually expected the video to be 4K but it looks like I rendered it in 5K instead. Talk about overkill, haha! :D
The song's name is "Brilliant World".

This game really deserve a remake or an anime

[@Lynn0219]

It would do so well as an anime and I miss playing it. I have the second one but I lost the first somewhere between moving several times.

[@bibepomp]

it's so crisp, it's kinda jarring to see it look nicer than how i've always viewed it on that tiny ds screen

[@postgameboss5975]

It's a shame it was never released publicly, like on a YT channel or something.

[@bibepomp]

@@postgameboss5975 most likely because imageepooch went bankrupt not too long after their last game (but it still would have been cool if they had a youtube by that time) and the series wasn't so popular worldwide :( But hey, it's good to see you doing a service to us fans ❤

[@postgameboss5975]

@@bibepomp Glad there are people who appreciate it! :) I'm going to be uploading a full Shin Megami Tensei IV Neutral Route Walkthrough some time soon, so if you're into SMT, feel free to stay! I'll be happy to have more JRPG fans on my channel!

Man I played this as a kid and I randomly remembered it, crazy nostalgia

[@ddreamsgames9045]

wonderful character design

[@ajthebandit]

The chokehold this game had on me as a kid. I still have my original cartridge and i replay it from time to time. so fucking good wish it would get an hq remake

[@DrSt-mu4zw]

just like final fantasy

[@Idlemage]

I wish they remastered this I don’t think I finished this when it was originally out

[@M.kai07]

I remember playing this on my old Nintendo 3ds. I think it needs a remake aswell.nostalgia 😢

[@JoshyGoodtime1]

Just beat it today (12-21-20) and it was a good and enjoyable experience. The characters are the real highlight of this game, along with some of the voice actors. Some real lol moments here.

[@jacobdominguez4787]

God Ive been trying to find a copy of this game ever since I lost mine years ago. I think I played through it 7 times back to back just nonstop

[@labulaut5032]

I have something to tell you mate...the world animation including background environment and character far more beautiful than any current isekai animation

[@Mixxivita]

luminous arc 1 and 2 were peak

[@Celthricify]

Oh man, oh man the memories aaaah. I played this game back in middle school and this brings back memories of the only time I was really happy back then: when I was playing my DS on my room at night. I'm gonna go find a copy of it on eBay and order it now!

[@postgameboss5975]

I loved it too back in the day!

[@Celthricify]

@@postgameboss5975 I wish it'd gotten more popular than it had, but at the same time I get excited when I get to introduce new people to it!

[@postgameboss5975]

Sadly, Imageepoch - the company which made this series (and Stella Glow also) went bankrupt, which is a shame.

[@Celthricify]

@@postgameboss5975 I wish Atkus would find another company to bring the other games to the US :( it's such a shame we didn't get them. But at least we have Fire Emblem, for the most part!

[@eczavyr2899]

For some reason I just thought of this game, and it's so nostalgolic for me. One of the best DS games hands down!

Yes, I hold it dear too. One of the DS games I really enjoyed, same for the fantastic sequel.

Love this game! :) second game was okay. My friends played the third game EYES and they loved it and the one for the Ps Vita. But this game will always be my favorite!

[@postgameboss5975]

I played 1 and 2. Loved both! I own 3 as well, but it's in Japanese, so it's only for my collection.

[@darkmetal2412]

Man the game opening does such a good job of tricking you this is based off an actual anime 'sigh' God I want an anime on this game

they should make this an anime and also mana khemia i think it will be good enough to be 24 episode anime

[@rompiguess]

discovered this game by looking at the oldest video on the atlus west channel might try to get it lol

[@Kopiin]

I have been searching for this game for YEARS and every year the price just continues to climb but idk if I can justify buying this for so much 🥺 but tbh I loved the second one so much that I just need to play through this one so I think I might bite the bullet....

[@dra6o0n]

I remember the only multiplayer match I did on the DS for this game. I beated the story and had end game characters and the player I faced had early game characters, so I pretend to be a boss fight for them using only the hero and heroine, and messed around. (2 vs 6) Then I finished off their party when they gathered in one spot with the super attacks to wipe em out lol. Nothing like seeing a giant beam obliterating your party to know what end game skills are like lol.

[@sweethana43]

There's actually a fan made translation and patch for Luminous Arc 3 that recently got released!

Wow, really? Complete game translation?

[@Chelaxim]

I wonder who owns the rights to Imageepoch's games. I know Sega finished 7th Dragon III, and NISA published Stella Glow in the west. It's sad that Luminous Arc and Arc Rise Fantasia will likely never get ported.

[@postgameboss5975]

Yeah :(

[@uniqflame2224]

Luminous Arc 1 was a good game.!

[@juanch091]

What is the original resolution of this video?

[@postgameboss5975]

It was already compressed and converted when I downloaded it. It comes from a bonus DVD for LA3, I believe, so I assume it has startard DVD resolution.

[@FilmFan-iv7sz]

The twist with witches was cool but the church angle was obvious if there is a church group in a rpg they are evil

[@millabasset1710]

Pretty sure this was below 360p on the DS lol, I love this game.

[@gooflow1219]

why is this game not an anime? i would watch it a million times

[@NuminousCat]

It's even better as a game, because you can immerse yourself more in it. Besides, you can play it through a million times, instead of just watching it ;')
