Ancient Book of Ys I
Our hero Adol Christine, compelled by an unknown urge, travels to the faraway land of Estellia, a land being overrun by monsters. There he learns that his coming was foretold by legend, and that he will end the menace to the land. Which unsurprisingly he does. In the process he and his companions search for the six books of Ys, which hold both the answers to the mystery and the key to the problem, battling both little and boss monsters all the way.

Legend of the Galactic Heroes
This long running space-opera tells the story of a conflict between the (Prussia-like) Galactic Empire which is set on conquering and unifying all of known space, and its war with the Free Planets Alliance. While mainly focusing on the two opposing militaries' leaders - Reinhard Von Lohengram (of the Empire) and Yang Wen-Li (of the Alliance) – the story describes all levels of the war; from the tactical to the strategic; from street fighting to spaceship conflicts.

A young hero Parn, son of a mighty but then banished knight, tries to discover the force behind the evil that is starting to terrorize first his village, then the whole island of Lodoss.

Will they find out who is standing behind the dark forces from Marmo and be able to save the acursed island?

Onna Senshi Efe & Jiira Guude no Monshou
They`re Efera and Jiliora, freewheeling soldiers of fortune, and if there`s trouble to be found, they`re usually in it up to their eyeballs! So, when an escape from a slave ship results in Efera`s possession of the legendary Crest of Gude, it`s only natural that these feminine firebrands want to return the stone to it`s rightful owner. That`s easier said than done, however, for the Crest is actually the property of the young Princess Rubiella and her brother Julian, now being held as hostages in the land of Forda. Of course, the fact Efe and Jira have only got two swords and a handful of beginner`s level spells to aid them is going to make things a little rocky at first, especially since the Prince and Princess are being held by the High Priest of an evil cult that worships an even more sinister Goddess! But hey, whoever said that quests were supposed to be easy? When Efera and Jiliora set their minds to a task, they`ll get it done even if it kills them and every other living being in the Four Kingdoms! And given the odds against them, it just may come to that.
