BASTARD!! RESURRECTION
"Gara, I'm here to get my woman back!!"
DARK SCHNEIDER IS THE BASTARD!!
Fifteen years ago, the legendary warlock Dark Schneider led an army of destruction on a quest to conquer the world. Not for money. Not for power. Just because he could. However, the good priests of Meta-Rikana magically imprisoned the vengeful wizard ending his threat. Now Dark Schneider's old comrades, the Four Lords of Havoc, are renewing the legacy of conquest with the added intention of resurrecting the Great Demon of the Apocalypse- Ansla-Sax.
Episode 1: The Explosive Wizard
The Four Lords of Havoc have once again reached Meta-Rikana and their evil sorcerer, Kebidabu, is devastating the valiant defenders. The Great Priest Geo knows that the only one powerful enough to defeat the Four Lords of Havoc is their old boss Dark Schneider, but how can he risk his lovely daughter Yoko to break the seal, and dare he rely upon their most feared enemy?
Episode 2: Efreet the Fire Elemental
One of the Four Lords of Havoc, Gara the Ninja Master, senses the resurrection of Dark Schneider, infiltrates Meta-Rikana, and kidnaps Yoko. Gara hopes to lure Dark Schneider to his fortress so that he can find out why Dark Schneider is defending Meta-Rikana, but only if Dark Schneider can survive the series of lethal traps designed specifically to test the wizard. The final trap will be a battle between the fire loving warlock and the Great Demon of fire, Efreet! Can fire defeat fire?!
BASTARD!! VENOM
"The exceptionally handsome and popular main character always wins!"
DARK SCHNEIDER IS STILL THE BASTARD!!
The legendary warlock, who nearly conquered the world out of sheer boredom, must now single handedly defeat his old army to protect his new love- Yoko.
Episode 3: Ninja Master Gara
In order to free Yoko, Dark Schneider must defeat his old general, and one of the Four Lords of Havoc: Gara. This fierce battle will be more than blood- its personal! After all, Gara is more than a little upset that the Exploder Wizard would betray both his comrades and their old dreams over a woman!
Episode 4: The Immortal King Di-Amon
The army of the Lords of Havoc resumes its attack on Meta-Rikana, and its new leader is the powerful Arshes Nei, a elfin sorceress and Dark Schneider's old lover! Naturally, their first meetings are less than friendly, but before they can truly confront each other, Yoko and Dark Schneider, once again imprisoned within Rushe, are captured by the maniacal Di-Amon- a vampire aiding the cause of the Lords of Havoc!
BASTARD!! EXODUS
"My obvious charms and god-like powers always dazzle the simple, ordinary folk!"
Episode 5: Thunder Empress Arshes Nei
Arshes Nei, one of the Four Lords of Havoc, challenges Dark Schneider to a duel. With their powers nearly equal, the deciding factor will be their spirit, but as ex-lovers, can they really put their hearts into killing each other? Dark Schneider can, but the results are not exactly what could be predicted!
Episode 6: The Return of Dark Schneider
Abigail, another one of the Four Lords of Havoc, attacks with his army of the undead. The soldiers of Meta-Rikana flee in horror as the corpses of the city's own army rise up to join the attack! Ashes Nei and Gara rally a small band of heroes to counter Abigail, but without Dark Schneider their cause seems hopeless. Will Dark Schneider be able to save the day?- The epic conclusion!
