Cast: Mizuno Ryo

Few would consider Louie to be a sorcerer - especially Melissa, Merrill, and Genie. (After all, what kind of "sorcerer" spends his time drinking at bars and beating the stuffing out of the local street toughs?) But much to the chagrin of these three gorgeous female adventurers, divine will has dictated that Louie, the enchanter-gone-street fighter, is in fact a prophesized hero--who they must pledge themselves to serve! Could this bad-boy possibly have what it takes to be a hero? Or has the war god Mylee made a mistake? With a bevy of babes at his side, Louie launches into a series of adventures that range from the harrowing to the bizarre. Get ready for swords, magic, and lots of black eyes and broken noses, because when Louie fights, it's no holds barred!

Parn, the hotheaded young fighter and the main character of the "Record of Lodoss War", always rushed into actions for the good of Lodoss and pure justice. Therefore, he always took away all the focus from the more passive main character and yet his partner, Deedlit the Elf. As in the name, "Deedlit's Tale", this is totally contributed to this beloved character. Artworks were done by Setsuko Yoneyama. This Manga adapts the novel of the same name into a two book Manga sequence. While reading this Manga, readers will find themselves feeling the heart of a young girl (one hundred and seventy years old is considered to be young for a high elf) and witnessing the romantic story of these two great heroes.

[From Anime News Network]:

Five years past, a band of six adventurers defeated the conquering armies of Marmo, the dark island, and saved the accursed island, Lodoss. Since that day, the survivors have been honored as heroes, and their deeds have become legends. But the evil never perished...it retreated, waited and schemed. Now, the Black Knight of Marmo has returned to threaten the accursed island once more. Old heroes must heed the call to defend their homeland and new heroes are forged as the battle for Lodoss begins anew...

[From Anime News Network]:

A long time ago, there was a tremendous war between the goddess of Creation and the goddess of Destruction, which made the earth trembled. Both goddesses perished in the war and created what people called a cursed land - Lodoss. Something evil is happening in the land of Lodoss. Parn, a reckless young warrior, along with his newfound friends, takes on a quest to find out the source of this evil and becomes involved in the greatest epic struggle between good and evil since the war of the goddesses.

There was a time when Lodoss Island was pure and the forces of light and darkness were in balance. It only took the greed of one man to change the face of Lodoss forever. Now it's up to the warriors of legend to restore the tenuous balance.

This is the conflict that will decide the future of Lodoss Island! The forces of Light and Darkness are at odds, and only a rag-tag band of warriors stands between a powerful succubus and the destruction of all creation!
