Description: For a complimentary copy review this one (and the Vampire one for Guilded Cage) are incredibly, inexcusably late, but I honestly felt intimidated by a wonderful, terrific review of this book by Jason Kratz . El-Hazard is the latest of the anime OAV licensed adaptations of Guelph’s Guardian of Order’s Big Eyes Small Mouth. It covers a small, rather obscure title of the “extradimensional exiles” genre of games. This book covers only the initial 7 episode OAV like other BESM resource books – providing both in-depth information on the setting coupled with BESM rules and mechanics. El-Hazard (The Magnificent World) is a magical world separated from ours by both space and time. The world is built from the ruins of a once-highly technological society and is now divided by a war between the humans and the insectoid Bugrom. Hidden amongst the races of the world are The Phantom Tribe – exiles yanked into El-Hazard by the cataclysmic weapon that ended that first civilization. Our heroes, a group of japanese students (with their teacher) are transported to El-Hazard by the humanoid artifact Ifurita. Like the comic book hero Superman, the humans develop extraordinary powers in this new world and find themselves in a two-fold quest to rescue a missing princess and win a war against the Bugrom. Unlike Escaflowne (a vaguely similar series with much the same premise and genre and magical/technological tropes), the style here is more 1001 Arabian Nights-esque most noticeably in architecture, dress and locations (but always with enough anime conventions to make viewers comfortable).
