Evangelyne Voiced by: Geneviève Doang (French); Jules de
Jongh (Season 1-2 & OVAs),[11] Kira Buckland (Season 3)[13] (English) A 17-year-old (18-year-old in season 2, 19-year-old in manga, 24-year-old in special episodes and 27-year-old in season 3) Cra, Evangelyne is accompanying the Sadida princess Amalia as a bodyguard. She is committed to her job but also acts as an older sister to the young Amalia. She wields a bow that can fire a variety of magic arrows, making a quiver unnecessary. At first, she shows no attraction to Percedal but as the series progresses she admits that she loves him and starts a family with him by the
time of the Special Episodes, marrying him at the end. In Season 3, it is revealed that Eva is pregnant and living with Percedal and their two children, Elely and Flopin. When assassins attack them, she fights back but she and Flopin are captured and taken by Adamai. Before the final battle, she is forced to give birth and, with help from Echo and Flopin, she safely
gives birth to a second son, one whose powers were a threat to Oropo throughout the remainder of the season. Ruel Stroud Voiced by: Patrick Bethune (Season 1-3 & OVAs), Xavier Fagnon (Season 4) (French); Hugo Chandor (Season 1-2 & OVAs),[11] Keith Silverstein (Season 3) (English) Ruel is an old friend of Yugo's
adoptive father Alibert, as well as a treasure- and bounty-hunter known as an Enutrof. As a favor to Alibert, Ruel agrees to accompany Yugo on his travels. Ruel is greedy and stingy. He is skilled as a fighter and is committed to seeing Yugo through the trouble.
Where sound and music are concerned, one might expect more pronounced differences between the two adaptations, however this is not the case. The selection of music for the first adaptation is actually very good throughout the series, and also gave rise to one of the catchiest opening themes in shounen anime - "Ready Steady Go" by L'Arc-en-Ciel. The aural effects are well chosen and choreographed, and while there are many occasions that feature frenetic clashes and lots of noise, care has generally been taken to modulate this to a level that won't unnerve the viewer (admittedly there are
some minor overwhelming moments, but they're not really worth going into any detail as they don't really affect the story in any way).
As for the acting, granted there are some different seiyuu between the two adaptations, but the series' big guns are in force in both. That said, while there is some acting continuity between the two, the actual quality is a little better in Brotherhood, however this may be due to an increased familiarity with the characters, and also because Brotherhood is far more a straight forward shounen tale than the
original adaptation- something which actually shows in the acting.
And now to the most interesting bit - the characters.
