Anima: Beyond Fantasy is a roleplaying game derived from a trans media project. This project also includes a card game, a discontinued miniature game, and two video games (as of 2020).

As a roleplaying game, Anima invites players to a setting inspired by “J-RPGs”, such as Final Fantasy and the likes. It also draws inspiration from Saint Seya and similar Shōnen universes.

The rules, however, are derived from Rolemaster, and are considered very “crunchy”. The game features a handful of classes, although character progression is notably less restricted by this initial choice than in most games.
