Bastard!!
A high-energy fantasy OVA mixing dark apocalyptic stakes with comedic irreverence, built on the redemption of a morally ambiguous antihero.
Several hundred years after Anthrasax destroyed modern civilization, a group of four lords plans to set this old god free once again. To prevent this from happening, a former ally of the four is released from his 15 year imprisonment. Dark Schneider, a sorcerer who once tried to conquer the world, now fights to save it.
