The first anime series of Popolocrois Story was released in 1998, and the story is based immediately after the first PlayStation game PoPoLoCrois Monogatari and before the Poporogue game. There have been two different series. The first series is about the adventure after the defeat of the Ice Demon: a girl named "Hyuu" came to Popolocrois, and the second series is 15 years after Maira's defeat. The second anime series features brand new characters, along with some of the old ones.
The main character for the second series is Pinon, who is the son of Pietro and Narcia. The second series is perfectly based on the fourth PlayStation 2 game in Japan, PoPoLoCrois: Adventure of Beginnings (Japanese title: Popolocrois Hajimari no Bouken; official English Title: Popolocrois: A New Departure), and the fifth PlayStation 2 game Popolocrois: Law of the Moon Adventure (Japanese title: Popolocrois Tsuki no Okite no Bouken; official English title: Popolocrois: Enchanted Lunar Tale).
In the anime, some colors are different. Pietro's hair is blonde rather than brown (but in the game, it says he's blonde), and White Knight's cape and helmet feather are red instead of blue (in the 1st edition game, they were red, and changed to blue after Popolocrois Monogatari II, the third PlayStation game in Japan. In the PlayStation Portable version, the graphics of II were used). Narcia's eyes are green instead of blue, and there some minor coloring details in some of the secondary characters (Queen Sania, King Paulo and Guilda).

A main character in the first series. He is the son of the King of Popolocrois, King Paulo, and Sania, one of the daughters of the Ryu clan (which are dragons). He has blond hair, and unlike the game, he wears the clothes that he had in the first two PlayStation games, at the beginning of Popolocrois Monogatari II and in the beginning of the PSP game (with no cape and no crown). It seems like Pietro is still 10 years old rather than 12 because of his childish personality, but he cares deeply about the kingdom.
Voiced by: Yuri Shiratori
A main character in the first series. She is able to fly without a broom and has a crush on Pietro, and she has less childish personality than Pietro in the beginning. Narcia is able to turn into Kai with her Golden Key, but even though they are the same person, they have split personality. Narcia turns into Kai when she is deeply shy or when she is too scared in some situation, but most of the time she prefers to be just herself.
