CD dramas
The
following CD Dramas were created long before the anime (between 2000 and
2001) featuring a whole different cast, with the exception of Sister
Kate’s voice, which is the same as in the anime. The first CD drama,
called Hajimari no Keiyakusha ("The contractor of the beginning") is a very faithful adaptation of the
first volume of the manga, with an extra original scene. The second CD
drama, Eien no Jikan ("The time of eternity") contains 2 stories. The first one, “Ghost in
the Watch” is an adaptation of the first chapter of the second manga
volume. The second story "The time of eternity" is an original one, where Rosette, Chrno and
Azmaria are forced to fight against a crowd of zombies. The third CD
drama, Hajimari no Jikan ("The time of the beginning") is an adaptation of the rest of the
chapters of the second manga volume that deal with Rosette’s childhood,
and nicely introduces Joshua and Fiore to the plot. It also contains two
songs “Windy Girl” (sung by adult Chrno and Joshua) and “Castle in the
Air” (sung by Rosette and Azmaria). The fourth CD, Chrno Crusade Museum,
is a collection of all the background music featured in the previous three
CDs, plus a small drama scene and the complete version of the songs “Windy
Girl” and “Castle in the Air”.
I strongly encourage you to listen to the dramas, even if you don't know Japanese. You can get a good idea of what is happening by reading the summaries and by listening to the characters' tone of voice. Just click on the "download" link and/or select "save target as".
