Halo: Heretic or Hero---An Elite's Story
Choose your own destiny

FanFicFactor
Forged in the Flames of Passion, go forth and represent!

Approximately 70% of you saw the title of this thread and said 'NOOOOOOOOOO!', and I understand why: Halo Legends left a bad taste in your mouths, for whatever reason. Maybe it was because you felt it showed disregard for prior canon. Maybe you just don't like anime, and that's alright.

Personally, I enjoyed episodes such as The Duel, Origins and The Package (minus the teenage Halsey...LOL). I think 343 has learned from their mistakes in the past and will strive to bring to life better stories in the future.

Even to all you Legends haters, can you truthfully say that you would dislike Legends with such passion if it lacked the 'canon errors' that you so vigorously pointed out the first time around? Would you dislike it if 343 gave it another try, and nailed it this time, delivering a few solid stories and open possibilities to new parts of the Haloverse?

Just a thought I had while listening to this

“Oh, it’s a little bit of everything, it’s the mountains, it’s the fog, it’s the news at six o’clock, it’s the death of my first dog, it’s the angels up above me, it’s the song that they don’t sing, It’s a little bit of everything.”
- Dawes, A little bit of everything

I would like to see another Halo Legends.

EDIT: I would love to see more stories focused around the ODSTs, but I don't like how they were portrayed in Legends (as arrogant -blam!-s). Sure, I bet some would have quite an attitude, but I doubt that they all would.

Sure, another Legends series would be great. But I would like a new series to have a more mature style going on.

Also: Legends wasn't bad at all. Most of the "canon errors" can now be attributed to updates in the canon. For instance: read Cole Protocol and see how the Elites truely do live like they do in The Duel. Same goes for the "Forerunner" structures in The Babysitter. They weren't Forerunner: we said they were Forerunner, not Bungie and Legends self neither. Those structures are most likely Human having Cryptum in mind.

Yep, I'd like to see another compilation of episodes, perhaps in the mould of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. There's 27 years of the Human-Covenant War not even counting the rest of the Haloverse so the potential is there for some fantastic story telling and action.

  • 02.14.2011 8:22 AM PDT

Yes I would love to see another Halo Legends as well.

  • 02.14.2011 8:38 AM PDT

olny thing I did not like in halo legends was the anime because I do not want to give japan a single penny and the structures in the baby sitter looked more japanese than anything.

"I'm not fat, I'm trustworthy"

I'm not sure how people could have really disliked Halo Legends...but I guess that just goes to show no matter what fans can complain about anything.

A second volume would be great.

Some hated it simply because it was 'anime'.

Anyway, to the person talking about ODST's, they actually kinda nailed how ODST and Spartans acted to each other sometimes.

I loved all of the Halo Legends episodes and it would be great to see more of them!

Most of the people who hate legenda are anime haters,thing the canon is ruined or are biased against 343.

Too bad Lgeneds barely ruined canon.

I loved it.

Signatures are for squares.

I'd LOVE to see another Legends.

So long as they are never as crappy as "Homecoming." Ralph 303, what a joke.

Anyway, if they do make another series of shorts, I'd prefer if they were ALL 22 minutes long or so, like a standard anime episode. Also, I would kill to see "Mona Lisa" in anime form, not the moving comic thing they are supposedly working on.

Agreed.

I'd love to see more episodes using the same art styles as The Duel and Origins, the CGI in the Package was excellent too.

Human Weakness would be an excellent story to adapt for Volume II, Karen Traviss really pulled it off with style and captured Cortana & Gravemind perfectly.

Dirt would also make an awesome adaptation.

Bring it on I say. I loved Halo Legends. I love Halo to death, and I love anime, the two make a nice combination. And I don't think 343 made any mistakes at all with Legends, any errors can mostly be attributed to artistic license. Like the actual appearance of the prototype suit, in the actual Haloverse I doubt it would look so much like a Gundam.

But yeah, I would love to see another series of Halo Legends, there's just so much story to tell in the Halo universe.

That's because they were based off pre-historic humans when we were about Tier 1 on the Technological Achievement Scale. It's not a difficult concept to rationalise.

I think that Halsey journal showed an armor almost similar to that prototype armor

I am a practicing traditional Catholic.

I would be all up for a Legends 2. I loved Legends 1 immensely and I think it can only get better.

  • 02.14.2011 9:43 AM PDT

I would love to see a new Legends, but I would honestly like to see a Halo TV show similar to Star Wars The Clone Wars.

  • 02.14.2011 9:43 AM PDT

I think they should make a episode about that colony ship were someone finds Noble sixs helmet.

I still haven't gotten my hands on a copy of that yet :/
I guess I was referring more to the function of the Prototype than its appearance maybe, idk, I just know it felt an awful lot like a Gundam :P

About me: I am a vicious wolf of a man.

But really am sweet at heart. =)

I would like another Legends, but NOT in Anime style. I'm sorry but Halo is meant to be realistic Sci-Fi. Not unrealistic.

Unrealistic Sci-Fi is like Star Trek or Star Wars. Shows that don't care about the science of things.

In shows like Stargate SG1 and games like Halo, the science of the technology is a part of what makes their universes cool and unique. Anime doesn't work with Halo because in anime everything is overdone to be cool looking, and with Halo you just can't do that or it looks really cheap and fake. That one episode withe giant mech proves it.

That said, I really loved The Package, even though it had some major canon errors. I would love to watch an animated Halo series.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

"Teenage Halsey" was very attractive...

Anyway, I'd like to see a Halo Legends 2.
