Disgaea: Hour of Darkness 3 (aka. Makai Senki Disgaea 3) takes place in a Netherworld School called the Maritsu Evil Academy. In this demon school, a good student is one who engages in delinquent activities such as ditching classes, or not doing homework. The student who participates the most in these kind of activities is known as the Honor Student, while demons who arrive to class early and do their homework are known as delinquents. Mao, son of the chairman, has not once attended class since the beginning of school and is known as the honor-student of Maritsu Evil Academy. His ambition for the future is to overthrow his father, who also happens to be an Overlord, and take his title for himself. After reading a few volumes in his manga, Mao comes to the conclusion that "heroes are the ones who defeat devils". From that point on, Mao resolved to become a hero himself, convinced it will help him achieve his goal.
Eventually, Raspberyl, the delinquent of the school, learns about Mao's goal and begins to worry. If Mao were to achieve the title of Hero, then it would endanger her position as the school's "Number One Delinquent". She makes up her mind to follow Mao, stop his plan, and once again secure her title. However since Raspberyl is a demon delinquent, she tries to solve the problem without violence and talk him out of it instead. Seeing this from a distance, Almaz, a hero himself, misunderstands the situation and tries to save the day. Mao accepts the challenge and defeats him, stealing Almaz's title in the process. With the title of Hero, Mao believes he is one step closer to defeating his father and achieving his goal of becoming an Overlord.
For Disgaea Fans All of Disgaea games are good or great. This game also a good game to play. the weak points in graphic, it's not like for PS3 or HD graphic, it's just like PS2 graphic.
More Disgaea Goodness A lot of fun! If you liked the first two Disgaea games, then you'll like this one too! If you didn't like them, well, you're probably not going to like this one either. Very similar to the first two Disgaea's. Yes, the characters are still sprites, but if you're someone who thinks you have to have super-amazing high-def graphics for it to be a good game, then this isn't for you. Excellent gameplay, character designs, music, fun story and characters, all make for a great game!
A Must Buy! With its new gameplay and superb funny storyline, not to mention unique level approaches to make the game entertaining, Disgaea 3: Absence of Justice is definitely worth the time for the series fans or new to the series, for even after you finish the game, you still have many hours worth your while to do.
Well worth it. Like Disgaea 2, Disgaea 3 brings back just enough of the basic gameplay system to keep vets happy and adds just enough new content to make the game challenging all over again. All around, it's an improvement.
