Cool Bastard Junk that I want!!
Hey, everyone has a wantlist. Or should, if they don't. There are some interesting products out there sporting the Bastard!! fun, and who can blame me for wanting to get my grubby hands all over them?
Dark Schneider Cels
A tangible piece of the Bastard to hold, frame, and hang by the bed for making pleasant dreams! I especially like DS in the blue "power ranger" outfit he wears he goes to fight his honey Arshes. I also very muchly like that rather complicated thing he wears when he joins Gara and Arshes to take on Abigail and the Cyclops at the end of the anime series. Honestly though I'd take just about any cel of him. Nekkid DS is always a bonus!
And, being honest again, I'd take any cel from the Bastard!! series. I mean, Kall-su's pretty cute, too.
Manga, 2-7, 14-17, 19-22
I finally got my hands on some, and of course they only made me want the rest that much more. Of course! An American distributing company plans on taking up Bastard!! and bringing it to the US, which has fans excited but wondering what sort of edits the stiff Americans will make. I still look forward to owning English language versions, so that I can understand exactly what's going on! I still will happily take any language versions of the manga.
If you don't have any manga to sell me, you can still brighten my day by sending me scans from the manga for me to add to the galleries! I'd shower you both with praise and credit! ;)
If you do send images, please send them as an attatchment (this is very important!) to antichrissy@hotmail.com. Sometimes people try to send me images and nothing shows up. And everyone with AOL, take note of what my brother told me: AOL + Hotmail = Stupid x 2.

Alternate Version Manga Volume 18
I didn't realize what this was when I saw it on Ebay, and apparently neither did the seller since he referred to it as a doujinshi. Volume 18 of the manga, where DS first meets Porno Dianno, was apparently released in this original form and then rereleased later. There are scans from this mysterious volume in #19. I want this thing!

More inside art! (Wow!)
Manga Complete Edition Volume 1
I also got wind of another manga story, a new, self-contained book that's larger than normal graphic novels. Of course I discovered it on Ebay, which I wolf through rabidly every night, but I can't afford the damn thing. I seriously want it bad, though. Here's the discription given by the seller:
Bastard, Ankoku No Hakaishin, Complete Edition Volume 1 (first edition) by Hagiwara Kazushi, produced by Shueisha in 2000. This book contains 328 B&W pages and measures about 7" X 10", as you can see, this is much larger than your standard manga. It contains 13 episodes of a brand new Bastard series, this is the complete saga, nothing more to buy to complete this series. The animation in this book is simply outstanding, there is also a fold-out poster and a shiny, metalic looking full page illistration (I have never seen this type of paper before), hours of reading and visual entertainment...Super Collectable!!! This book is written in Japanese.

Megadeth Books!
Ok I am not real sure what the Megadeth books are, whether they are doujinshi which is my best guess, or manga, or what. They're by Studio Loud in School which is Hagiwara's little group so I'm guessing they're official! Needless to say, I'd be very very happy to get my greedy paws all over them.

ArtBooks
Drool? Yes.... drool..... I would absolutely drool until I dehydrated if I got my hands on one or more of those Bastard!! artbooks. (Are there more than one? *shrugs*) Nude is such an appropriate name for the Bastard artbook... although they could have called it "Nekkid" too.
As with the manga, though, I will also drool if you'd like to send me scans of anything out of the artbooks.
The Bastard!! Anime OAV VHS, Volumes 1-3, DUBBED.
I have all three subtitled tapes, and now I want the dubbed version, just to see how different it is. The voice actor who provides Tasuki's voice in the Enghlish dub of Fushigi Yuugi also provides the voice for Dark Schneider in the Bastard!! dub, and I want to see the difference! Sans subtitles would also make it easier to make screengrabs.
In Japan apparently each episode came out on it's very own tape. Since the American released tapes (whether dubbed or subtitled) are obviously censored (where's the freakin heavy metal music?!) I would love getting hold of the original Japanese versions. Do I know Japanese? Nope. But I've watched the subtitles enough to know what they're jabbering about! :)

Six covers!
Doujinshi
Fan-created Bastard!! puts a whole new spin on the series. Some of the artists are very very good at the obvious... ;)
Some of the djs are yaoi, which is boy x boy, and even though DS really doesn't fit into that category, I still want them!

This dj has very nice cover art as well:

Of course I'll take any doujinshi that exists, but I had to share the interesting examples I have found.
Postcards
I have three already, but of course once I get my grubby mits on something, well then I just want more! ^_^

With the new Bastard DVD came a new postcard, done in that hinky neo-fashion that's so bizarre. I would LOVE to have that postcard, along with any other that I don't have already!
Click Here for an example of what I'm rambling about.
There is also a postcard book that contains 24 cards, and I wouldn't mind getting my grubby hands all over that, too.
Telephone Cards
Seriously, I'm not sure what this is. It's something that goes with the apparent promotional phrase "All Bastard!!" and if I don't hear any info on this real soon, I'm going to have kittens.
The artwork on these cards is wonderful, and I have seen these pictures only a few times before. One is off the cover of the Complete Edition Manga #1 (which I also want). So naturally, I want both info on these cards AND the cards themselves!!
Click Here to see what I'm rambling about this time.

Bastard!! Game
I don't know what this is exactly, but it looks like a game! There seem to be cards, little figures, dice, etc, but since I found it on a Japanese auction and I can't read Japanese, I can't give any good details about it.
View the Game's Cover: older manga style cover art
The insides: dice and cards and other fun stuff
The figures: they look metal, and I can't tell who the characters are exactly.
This is a neat little set! And I just recently discovered it existed at all. I wouldn't be able to read the directions, but I'm sure I could improvise. >:)
Bastard!! Sign
This is a two-sided scroll-type sign, apparently an advertisement for the Complete Volume One manga that's been recently released. It's connected to a string so that it can hang, like say, above my bed. lol!
