So, while venturing around ebay [and trying to assemble coherent keywords that will allow me to find Ys stuff without finding youth small shirts ;>>] I found this:  [Pic is a link too]. You know, considering how most of the humanish bad guys in the Ys world look epic with long hair, you'd think Adol would too...only he doesn't. Well, if that even is Adol o.O; What the heck is this manga about, Ys 1&2? Ys: Les Be Goddesses? Ys meets Dragon Ball Z? Or some original spin-off thing? XD I'm curious, just not curious enough to want to buy it, so I thought maybe someone here might know more about it  |

Ys meets Saint Saiya? That's all I can think of after seeing the second cover.

Eeewww, okay maybe long hair was just an 80's thing, though clearly not everyone can pull it off XD
Also, the back covers are covered in random female characters wearing...not so much o.O [But they have long hair too. At least something is consistent XD]
..And now I'm hearing that horrendous "I Ran So Far Away" song in my head now, gah! XD |

The blonde girl kinda looks like a female Dark Fact!  Interesting find! |

Words can't express how hilarious that is. |

Words can't express how hilarious that is. Sometime go look up the covers for Phantasy Star II & IV. Those are equally bad. Dogi doesn't seem too far off.. cept the part where he's holding a sword and shield instead of punching walls. |

All I can think of is: doujinshi.
Awesome though.
Like this thread. xD

I see what looks like it could be a Feena, a Lilia... and........... maybe they felt compelled to make one of the goddesses blond? Adol is just.... no. God no. >_< I need to go wash my eyes out after that. |

God no. >_< I need to go wash my eyes out after that. Maybe because blondes have all the fun...or there really wasn't any other way to tell the goddesses apart when they're frolicking around naked, I dunno o.O Hm, it seems there's more than 4 volumes of this madness too D: Blame Yahoo! JP Auctions for this pic:  Also, maybe someone could haggle down the price of those books on ebay, there is the "Best Offer" option available [Arg, what have I started?! XD] |

It's easy to tell the goddesses apart. One has longer hair with split bangs, the other has shorter hair and forehead-covering bangs. :E

these are official i used to have them they are really different and off the wall compared to the normal artwork i loved these for that reason, in the artwork it seemed like they combined dark fact and darm into one character, the series was very unique.

I have the whole set... it just sits there, staring at me...daring me to read it.
Alas, I lack the courage.

At least Adol's late 80s early 90s Shonen Anime hair in the Ys II anime didn't look that bad.

Oh god, completely forgot about these. We need scans of what lurks inside those beasts.

wow Adol the homicidal maniac. I've only skimmed over a few chapters but in that manga Adol attracts blood like females
only difference is he tends to indifferently keep the blood on him

Wonder how I missed this thread, I have the first 4 volumes and have for quite a while. There actually is nudity and nipples in the chapters, although the story seems pretty different from regular Ys. Adol has no less than 3 girls tagging along with him by chapter 4 for instance.

DAT HAIR.
he's like an 80's Guts from Berserk, and Dark Schneider from Bastard!! all mixded into one ferocious package.
Definitely not the Adol I'm used to. Is the plot more or less the same?
