Story/PlotProduction CreditsReviewCritiqueConclusion

With Roshtaria's war against the Bugrom finished, the heroes from El Hazard are preparing for the wedding of the Great Priestess of Water, Miz, and former history teacher at Shinanome High, Masamichi Fujisawa. That is everyone...except for Fujisawa who leaves to his students the responsibility of telling his fiance that he has gone on one last climbing expedition. After nearly flooding the entire castle with her rage, a determined Miz forms her own search party (basicly the past heroes) to drag her cold footed fiance to the alter.

Meanwhile, Katzuhiko Jinai is determined to re-establish the Bugrom Empire. While looking for a new location to base the planned headquarters, Jinai finds a shrine similar to the one which imprisoned the destructive force of the Demon God Ifurita. As his luck would have it, he finds another demon god called Kalia who tells him of a weapon that has more power that the Eye of God, a device that nearly erased the existence of El Hazard in the previous series.

So all of the earthlings from the last series paths will cross once again which would make anyone fear for the fate of this "Magnificent World".
