Background[edit]

History[edit]

Legend of Mana[edit]

“The Great Witch Anise was the first mage to go down in history. Anise bored a hole into the Mana Tree and built her laboratory there. The flow of Mana into both human and Faerie worlds was diverted. Anise constructed a jewel called the Eye of Flame using the vast amounts of Mana in her laboratory. The Firestone brought out the evil of whoever touched it.”
In-Game Ecyclopedia

Heroes of Mana[edit]

“A great witch who brought darkness upon the ancient world, long before the Mana Goddess was born. She was defeated by the Guardian of the Tree, but her curse is said to live on, seeping through multiple realms and spreading to other worlds.”
Notebook

Circle of Mana[edit]

Anise makes a cameo appearance in the online game, along with several other characters from the Mana series. She appears in 3 set of cards.

Trials of Mana HD[edit]

See also: Anise (Trials of Mana)

She appears in the post game content of the HD remake as appearing in the Trials/Heroes of Mana world to her own confusion before realizing her exact location followed by opening a portal to Mavolia with the ultimate goal of unleashing Mavolia's power on Fa'Diel to obliterate it.

She is mentioned as being nearly equal to the Mana Goddess and having come from the same world as her despite merely being referred to as a Witch.

Anise returns due to the Goddess of Mana's death at the hand of the main villain, being fought as the post game enemy after the heroes destroy the regular final boss. The Grimoire in which the Great Archmage Grand Croix infused a copy of his mind awakes in the royal library of Valsena, and warns them of her threat, but she is so powerful that they need to reach the fabled Four Class to stand a chance.

Anise is fought at the very end of her own distorted world made from the memories of the people of Fa'Diel. Upon being defeated, Anise personally declares that she can never fully die and will be revived after the Heroes are long gone before dissipating.
