Unfortunately, there's no shot of this in this site's otherwise incredible array of episode screenshots.
The only way to do it is to screencap the DVD then. May I ask why you need it?

I have completed my RPG El-Hazard map, including the major locations from the OAV. I used the simple map from the Wanderers gallery. Here you can see the:

Nice! I do wonder, however, if some of the places you added were already mentioned on the map (albeit illegible). Actually I do not know a lot of places (and Characters) from the Wanderers and Alternative series than could be useful for the RPG. Is it available a simple guide for these places? Since Geocities went down (and throughout the recent years) many good sites have disappeared. Therefore a major EHOL update is being prepared to compensate this. It'll be published in a few weeks. What is the name of the money used in the Alliance? I see than in the Wanderers it is called "Roshtals".
I suppose so (since the artwork for the money is almost the same). Here's a Currency Conversion Chart: | Year | Roshtal | Yen | US Dollar | UK Pound sterling | Euro | | 26/05/1995 | 1 | 300 | $3.58 | £2.18 | N/A | | 26/05/2000 | 1 | 300 | $2.78 | £1.90 | €3.06 | | 26/05/2005 | 1 | 300 | $2.78 | £1.52 | €2.21 |

Yes actually the OAV arrived in Italy in 1997 thanks to "Dynamic Italia", it should be available in DVD too, but actually I have still the VHS (I think I will consider to buy some DVD copies).
Well, if you do buy them, let us know!  I have still some doubt about the background of the bugroms.
I always thought that the bugroms were some type of biomechanical war drones created from the enemies of the ancients (in some screenshot of the Holy War we see some warmachines with a bugrom design), while their queen was a relic like Ifurita, created to produce more bugroms. However these are only suppositions, the origins of the bugrom are not clear, like a lot of thinks about el-hazard world.

In my opinion the description made in the RPG book is pretty accurate: the bugroms are insectoids that live in a society similar to bees, ants or termits. Regarding the latter, if you see El-Hazard: Alternative World, the bugroms from Cretaria are known as termite-bugroms. As for the pictures, I didn't notice before, but the machines do look like insects. However, those are memories from the Ancient Wars that were inside Ifurita (when Makoto "hacked" her) and therefore I think they are just war machines from that era, which have nothing to do with the bugrom.

Hi! Welcome to the forums! It's always nice to see fans that are from the time of the beginning of the series.  Wow, never thought that there were tapes in Italian, if would be great to see how they look like. Is it possible for you to contribute with pictures/scans of the covers?  Regarding the RPG, well I must say that the Guardians of Order book is the best compilation of El-Hazard information around (and the only one in English). I do suggest, however, to go to the Books on EHOL and take a look at the artbooks, I think you can take a lot of information from many of the illustrations that depict the landscape, objects, villages and relevant places. As far as I know there's no clear map of El-Hazard and no information regarding the planet itself. However, the day seems to have 24 hours, <scientist mode>the size of the planet should be the same as Earth since the gravity appears to be the same (it could be a bit smaller or larger if the average density of the planet compensates</scientist mode> and there's an AW Single called the 13th Month Revolution, so the year must have more than 12 months. EDIT: As far as I know this is the closest you get to a map. (Is from the Perfect Guide to El-Hazard - page 1)

Let me put it this way: even if I decided it was okay, my wife definitely had objections. And if the mama ain't happy...
I totally understand: the OVA timeline is by no means WAF-compilant. And for the record, I do think that the OVAs (and AW) should be rated at age of 15 and up (but that's my opinion).

I remember watching the first OAV 1 episode and thinking that my then-12 year old daughter would enjoy this...and then I hit that final scene and said "No, I don't think so!"
No doubt that the Wanderers version is more adequate for kids, although the OVA is rated 13 and up, if I'm not mistaken.

Great find! We have to keep this in mind for the new EHOL.  Since it's from youtube, It'll be easy to embed the videos. Why didn't we have this technology back in 2000-2002??

Hi! Welcome to the forums! I took the liberty to edit your post to correct some mistakes (I'm on Grammar-Nazi mode today  ) As far as I'm concerned, I saw the Wanderers at a Portuguese TV channel (RTP 2) and really liked it!

I'm stunned that I remember my password.
Ah! A demon-god always remember! Very nice look--I think you ought to change the front page to "Because Everything Else WAS on Geocities"...
The new site prototype already has exactly that quote ever since Geocities went down! I do hope that more users return after the so called overhaul! (we're working on it) Icy EyeG, I'm sorry but I can't remember where that image of Ifurita came from. After looking at it with a bit more attention I think it may be from a LD insert, but I'm not sure.

It's great to see this Web site undergoing an overhaul - or overgoing an underhaul, whichever it is.
Oh I think it's definitely "undergoing an overhaul". I don't think it'll happen before Christmas, but I'm quite sure It'll happen before 26/05/2010 - El-Hazard's 15th anniversary (I do hope it'll happen way sooner). Meanwhile, the Forum's RSS Feed may come in handy for those that don't visit the forum often. Stay tuned!
BTW, what's with the attachment? Where is that Ifurita's image from?

Fantastic forum looks fantastic!

I hope that we might get some more activity here due to the recent board upgrade.
And I do hope the site upgrade potentiates that as well! Like Rob says, more is coming!
