Part of this is due to the film’s tendency to explore various elements of the Monster Hunter mythos, including a surprising reason for why Aiden cracks various puns involving the monsters.
This film seems to be targeted toward Monster Hunter fans first and foremost, which will no doubt be a boon after the largely disappointing live-action film last year.
Upon learning that the Elder Dragon will lay waste to his village, Aiden recruits other Monster Hunters to help defend his village while learning the lifestyle of the Monster Hunters Guild.
Aiden soon encounters veteran Monster Hunter Julius (Brando Eaton) who is tracking a powerful Elder Dragon. Taking place prior to the events of Monster Hunter 4, the film follows young Aiden ( Dante Basco) who yearns to be a Monster Hunter. Monster Hunter: Legends of the Guild is a Netflix Original Animated Film, directed by Steve F.
