Noob Saibot 38 Report post Posted February 1, 2010 I found them on E-bay and bought all three for a little over $100. The two on the right are the Japanese Manga and the one on the left is the Japanese strategy guide. Now I can't read Japanese, but I did do a search for the manga and found the following out about the LOD Manga: The book(s) have many differences to the original game. Haschel - The character Haschel who joins the party halfway through disc one does not appear in the book. Hero's Tournament - The tournament where Dart first meets Lloyd and reunites with Haschel in Lohan does not happen after they recover Shana. Basil & Limestone Cave - After Hellena Prison, the team does not journey through the cave where they fight the snake to get to Basil. In fact, after they escape Hellena, they head straight to Hoax instead of Basil. Feyrbrand's Death - The Dragoons do not defeat Feyrbrand, but instead Lloyd appears and kills it. Battle at the Temple - In the game there is a servant who protects Shirly at her temple, but the battle with him does not appear in the book. Lohan - The team does not journey to Lohan at all. Albert's Capture - In the game, Prince Albert is taken away to Hellena, but in the book, he takes knights straight to Black Castle. Volcano Villude - In the book, the team does not go to Volcano Villude and does not fight the Virage. Stealing the Moon Gem - After they first go to Hellena, they do not return later like they did in the game. Thus, Lloyd steals the Moon Gem at Black Castle instead. Lavitz's Death - Because they do not return to Hellena, Lloyd does not end up killing Lavitz, causing Albert to not become the new Dragoon. Kongol's Death - In the book it appears that Kongol dies in his first fight with Dart. In the game he escapes, has a rematch with the team at Black Castle, and later joins them to become the Dragoon of Earth. But in the book, Dart kills him at Hoax. see last picture with flash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
