Set in ancient Persiait is loosely based on the Persian epic of Amir Arsalan. It was adapted into a mangawhich caught up with the novel and then received an original ending, and ran from November to September It also received a six-part, unfinished anime OVA adaptation. Init was adapted into an anime television series, which covered Tanaka's first 4 novels, and was based on Arakawa's manga art style and character designs. A second season, based on novels 5 and 6, aired in The anime caught up with the second manga after only 3 volumes covering the first novel had been published, meaning the majority of Season 1 and all of Season 2 adapted the original novels before the manga did. Ever since Season 1 Episode 11, the anime's director Noriyuki Abetogether with script writer and series composer Makoto Uezustarted making their own adaptation of Tanaka's novels, and so deviated from the second manga's later, more faithful adaptation. The story is set in a legendary vision of an indistinct amalgam of over a thousand years of ancient Persia and nearby other countries. While the world in which it takes place is one where magic obviously exists, said magic is of an extremely limited nature. Until the middle of the anime, the only magical happenings involve The Heroic Legend of Arslan 2 few spells and a giant, humanoid monster. There are many evil monsters such as ghouls and winged monkeys, appear in the second half of the novel series. Especially the first half of the series is, at the core, a war story taking place between human nations. In addition, there The Heroic Legend of Arslan 2 underlying themes exploring the repercussions of slavery on a society, having an absolute monarch who treats the poor as cattle, and religious obsession. The story follows the exploits of Arslan, the crown prince of the fictional kingdom of Pars, and it is divided into two parts. In the first part, Pars is taken over by the neighboring nation of Lusitania after Arslan's father, King Andragoras III, falls victim to a treacherous plot led by some of his most trusted retainers. After barely escaping with his life, Arslan rejoins his loyal servant, Daryun. Backed up by only a few more companions, including the The Heroic Legend of Arslan 2 and tactician Narsus and his young servant Elam, also Farangis, an aloof, cold priestess, and Gieve, a travelling musician and con-man, Arslan stands against overwhelming odds to assemble an army strong enough to liberate his nation from the Lusitanian army which is led by the elusive warrior known as "Silvermask", who is later revealed to be another contender to Pars' throne. In the second part, Arslan, now king of Pars, divides himself between defending his country against several external threats, including Silvermask, who is still at large, seeking to claim the throne for himself, and addressing the needs and hopes of his subjects. The protagonist's name appears to have been taken from the popular Persian epic of Amir Arsalan. Other than this anachronism, Arslan and his Parsian enemies and allies primarily share many parallels with Cyrus the Great and other historical figures of 6th century BCE Persia albeit with several liberties takenwhereas the conflicts with the Lusitanian forces which bear the Byzantium Orthodox cross and the Varangians of Kievan Rus' — despite mostly French names and a certain religious zealotry implying a connection to the Catholic Crusades again, with liberties taken — appear to be based on the East Roman—Persian Wars ,specifically those of the The Heroic Legend of Arslan 2 century CE. Furthermore,several names of prominent Parsian characters appear to be taken from known important figures throughout Persian history as well as the historically unsubstantiated legendary parts of the historiographic Persian epic Shahnameh. Additionally, supernatural elements mostly based on ancient Near East mythology increasingly play a role as the series goes on. The original novel, Arslan Senkiwas written by Dr. Yoshiki Tanaka. Though he is primarily a novelist, Tanaka's works have been adapted into manga and anime forms before. There are sixteen novels in the Arslan Senki storyline.
