Dark Schneider is the Bastard, a lone warlock who sets out to save the denizens of Meta-Rikana from an army of destruction whose aim is world domination and the resurrection of an ancient evil. However, the Bastard's motives are not completely honorable. He cares little for the fate of Meta-Rikana, but is instead bent on exacting revenge on an army he used to be a member of and showing up his ex-girlfriend.

yeah.. I read some of that book in the book store.. but it was for people 18 and up!!! I was soo scared.. I thought I was going to be caught reading a bad manga!!! I'm horrible!!! * cries *

Its rated 18 and up? Ummm... Thats weird, the anime has some violent scenes and blood, but no nudity. But maybe the manga does *smiles at the thought*. I would think Battle Royal would be higher rated its for 17+. I'll check into that.
