Orphen Vol. 2: Supernatural Powers (DVD)
Though chiefly known stateside as a game for Sony`s PlayStation 2, ORPHEN is actually a series of very popular fantasy novels in Japan which were made into this anime series. The series follows Orphen, a young sorcerer trained at the Fanged Tower, an elite magic school, who has shunned his elders. After leaving the school, Orphen retreats to a small town to tutor a young boy and to be close to a nearby mansion that houses a mysterious sword. While trying to procure the sword from the mansion`s owner, Orphen finds himself confronted by the dragon Bloody August, whom he calls Azalie. Though Orphen apparently wants to save this beast, the leaders from the Fanged Tower want nothing more than to destroy it, sending Orphen on a mission to get to the dragon first.NR"
