Line 8:
The titular hero is made up of multiple sprites put together to create the illusion of more fluid movement, a sprite technique that would later be used to better effect by Capcom for ''[[X-Men: Children of the Atom]]'' on the Sentinel and [[Cyberbots]], and Konami's ''[[Castlevania: Symphony of the Night]]''.
Further details about its plot are scarce due to the fact that no effort so far has been made in translating the cutscenes to English. For a more detailed attempt at analyzing this game, you can check out the Earnest/Annet trilogy shrine by [[Rage Quitter 87]] [https://web.archive.org/web/20120902193821/http://rq87.flyingomelette.com/RQ/Annet/earnestmain.html here], where he also has a look at ''El Viento'' and distant sequel ''Annet Futatabi''.
Or you can check out the game in its entierty via [[Retsupurae]]'s hilarious video of said game [https://web.archive.org/web/20131106124340/http://blip.tv/slowbeef/earnest-goes-to-anime-5467989 here].
