Was this game ever released besides with the magazine? I'm especially
interested in it since you said it's like Bomberman... %^)
If the other person doesn't reply, send me a note and I'll format it like the
original instruction manual (but in Engrish, of course).

Cool! Did they say which one? There were two OAVs released...
(1) Ys (1989), 7 episodes (30 min. each)
(2) Ys: Palace of the Celestial Gods (1992), 4 episodes (30 min. each)
I only have the first episode on VHS, and it's the Japanese original. Ys 1/2
for the Duo is probably my all-time favorite videogame (and I have thousands
of games), so I'm really, REALLY interested in seeing this! I assume it will
be dubbed, and not just released on DVD with subtitles only...?
That's great news! I've been after the rest of that series for a long time,
and finally I'll get to see what really went on. %^)

It's official. The Mid Atlantic Video Game Festival will be getting the
advance screen premier of the official, professionally translated Ys
Anime!!!! The DVD won't even be available in the USA yet, but we'll be
getting an advance screener of episodes 1-4 in English subtitles. (Sorry, we
at MAG Fest are not big fans of english voice dubbing.) It will premier
Saturday, September 28th at 4PM. The Minibosses will follow live in Concert
the same evening. Check out the details at
www.magfest.org
BTW, in case you are wondering, YES, this subtitled version will be 100x
better than the current fansubbed edition.
