Is this it? Is this truly mankind's final hour? Has the human race finally found a way to destroy itself for good after countless tries for thousands of years? Or can one incredibly handsome wizard... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Bastard! is a very interesting series, filled with strange characters. Dark Schneider is one of the most unconventional heroes out there; Tia No Yoko is made of sterner stuff than even D.S; and Princess Sheila doesn't take any crap from anybody. They are all endearing in their own way, and really help to move the story along.The spells and the countries are named after American rock n' roll bands and some of their songs, which is quite unique and kinda funny.
Definitely one of the more interesting series I own...

I got the first volume just a week or two ago, and had to have the second volume as soon as possible! This is a wonderful series, and very creative. Especially the use of hard rock band names as spells is inventive.The characters are well-drawn and even more well-written. It is hard to dislike Dark Schneider, although Lucien is a little to soft and waffly for my tastes. Yoko knows what she wants and (even more importantly) how to keep D.S. in line. Princess Sheila is not one of those cliched "oh please save me! I'm so fragile and delicate!" types, either.All in all, an excellent book.
The ultimate in RPG and rock and roll parodies!

I love this series! The author is very creative--to use rock n' roll band names and song titles as the names in the story is great! The back of the book says that "If this were a movie, you'd have been blasted through the wall just by the music. This is loud, head-banging fun!" Well, I happen to agree!So, pick up your copy today! I doubt you'll be disappointed!
Impressive

It is not hentai, it is not serious, it sure features lots of blood, but its one fun series...I read previously Bastard!! but i needed to actually buy it because it is SO good.The story might look stupid sometimes but it provides some good laughs.If you never enjoyed 'fantasy' , Bastard!! is for you...The ultimate parody of the fantasy themes >_<
