カーシュ | Karsh |
豪胆な騎士よりも、煩奇者と言ったほうが的を射ていそうな…。 | Though Karsh is a brave knight, saying he is troubled and strange would be closer to the point… |
甲冑を身に着けた図。あまりにも騎士すぎるのがゲームの雰囲気に合わないと判断され、没になったのだろうか? | Karsh with armour. It was judged that he looked like too much of a knight and didn’t fit with the game’s atmosphere. Perhaps the armour was rejected? |
その性格が災いして誤解されてはいるが、カーシュは「クロノ・クロス」でも有数の美形キャラクターなのだ。 | Though he is ruined and misunderstood, Karsh is also a leading character in Chrono Cross. |
ダリオ | Dario |
ゲーム中ではほとんどわからないが、実はかなり身長の高いダリオ。これはガライの血によるものなのか? | It’s hard to tell in-game, but Dario is actually quite tall. Is this due to his Garai blood? |
ダリオの甲冑の肩当てが大きいのは、カーシュとの差別化のためのようだ。 | The epaulets on Dario’s armor are big, differentiating him from Karsh. |
四天王のリーダーで体の大きい人と言うイメージが先行しすぎたのだろうか、だいぶ親父臭いダリオ。 | With the leader of the Acacia Dragoons, projecting the image of a large figure might have been too much of a priority for us. Dario’s a father figure. |
騎士と言うより、サムライに近い?細身の刀を使うダリオも、なかなかサムになりそうではあるが。 | He looks more like a samurai than a knight…? With his slender sword, Dario has an uncanny resemblance to a samurai. |
グレン | Glenn |
まんま少年騎士と言った風貌のグレン。髪型もいわゆる「熱血ヒーロー」していて、ゲームの主人公と言ってもおかしくないくらいだ。 | Grenn’s appearance is that of a boy knight. His hairstyle is also the so-called “zealous hero.” It wouldn’t even be strange to call him the game’s protagonist. |
