"I'll wait for you on the star island of Istarshia," reads a letter that Gran left behind before disappearing. Gran, a boy who had longed for the world of the sky since he was a child, is forced to embark on a journey into the skies he longs for after an unexpected event in the form of death. Gran embarks on various adventures alongside Lyria and the others, with whom he has become one in spirit. This time, we will follow the path of this natural gigolo, Gran.
Gran and Lyria Meet in the Forest
Gran, who devoted himself to sword training in the rural town of Sankt-Insel, dreamed of traveling to Istarcia, where his father awaited him. One day, while watching a warship flying through the sky, Gran sees something fall to the ground along with an explosion, causing him to run into the forest. There he meets a girl named Lyria, whose actions will determine Gran's fate.
The story reaches a sudden climax! Gran dies?!
Thanks to his training, Gran managed to defeat the Imperial Army. However, when his allies called, he realized he was at a disadvantage against such a large force, so he decided to flee with Lyria. However, he was eventually cornered by Pommern, and was defeated by the attack of a dragon known as the Hydra. His body was severely ripped apart.
Luria shares her life with Gran
Seeing Gran collapsed, bleeding profusely, Vyrn calls out to him, crying, but Gran doesn't move a muscle. With a determined look on her face, Lyria went to Gran's side and, speaking directly to his spirit, told him to use his powers. Gran then stands up, but there's one restriction...
Gran and Lyria are literally one and the same
After returning from the brink of death, Gran possesses powers similar to Lyria's, and the two join forces to summon Bahamut. They defeat Hydra and the Imperial Army. However, Lyria and the others then reveal a restriction. This means that they are "sharing one life." The two of them are living the same life, and it is not permitted for them to be separated from each other in the future.
Gran shows off his natural gigolo skills to Lyria
Gran often unconsciously uses words and actions that make women fall in love with him, and he immediately shows off his natural gigolo skills to Lyria. Linking their lives creates restrictions, and when Lyria and the others ask Gran to travel with them, he responds with a bright smile, "Let's travel together across the endless sky."
Gran's Friendship with His Best Friend, Arlong
The villagers were surprised to hear that Gran was going on a journey, but no one opposed. However, one boy loudly opposed the plan. It was Grant and his best friend, Aaron. Aaron was worried that if Katarina and the others went with him, Gran would be targeted by the Imperial Army. However, his father persuaded him, and in the end, he sent them off with a smile.
Gran challenges the Primal Beast Tiamat alone
In episode 5 of the anime, Gran receives Bahamut's blessing and jumps off his airship to battle Tiamat alone. In addition to the action-packed and flashy battle scenes, the game features the familiar battle music from the Tiamat battle, making this one of the anime's highlights.
Even Gran is no match for Katarina
Gran is quick to act, but he's no match for Katarina, who also acts as a guardian. Although she hid the injury she sustained in the battle with Tiamat, Katarina's eyes were not deceived, and she had Io use healing magic on her while admonishing her for being too reckless. She truly acted like a guardian.
Gran instantly falls in love with Io upon meeting her
While searching for someone, Gran and his friends rescue Io from a monster they were following. Seeing Io collapsed, he reaches out to her, asking if she's hurt, showing concern for her injuries. They then end up listening to what she has to say, and unlike the other members, when talking to Gran she becomes honest and blushes with embarrassment.
It's basically a date! Gran and Lyria go shopping together
After Eugen asks them to go shopping in Auguste, the two wander around town sightseeing... Just looking at them makes you feel like a sweet-smelling couple on a date. Even Roain, who was tending the store, mistook them for a date. And to top it off, he gave her a hair clip as a gift...I'm so jealous of Gran!
I'm so jealous! Gran Summary
Although Gran's life seems to be plagued by misfortune and loss right from the start of the story, he is also faced with the completely unenviable constraint of being unable to leave his beautiful girl. Not only does he fight, but he also gains new allies and sets off new flags everywhere, making him a fascinating character to watch!
