Groove Adventure Rave (2001) — Story, Release Date, Rating

Synopsis:

Fifty years after a cataclysmic event known as the Overdrive, triggered by mysterious Dark Brings, the world grapples with lingering devastation and a growing threat. The organization Demon Card seeks to exploit the power of these artifacts for their own ends. Haru Glory, a young man destined to become a Rave Master, finds himself tasked with recovering the scattered Rave Stones – powerful relics capable of vanquishing the Dark Brings.

Accompanied by the enigmatic Plue, the spirited Ellie, and the skilled thief Musica, Haru journeys across a diverse world. Their quest for the Rave Stones becomes a fight against injustice, exploring themes of legacy, responsibility, and the enduring power of hope in a fractured landscape. The narrative blends action-oriented exploration with character-driven moments as they confront the consequences of the past while striving to shape a more secure future.
