The cool and stylish artwork of the television program has now been compiled into a prestige format, hardcover book for both collectors and fans. Art inspired by the anime, along with initial character designs, cel art, and production notes--all this plus an interview with Yoshiyuki Itoh, the character designer for the anime. Face it true believers, it doesn't get better than this!

    When the Hunters reach a town full of fortunetellers, they decide to enlist their help to locate the Elves with the remaining spell fragments. But in that town, the Hunters encounter a strange cult led by an Elf with a horribly evil agenda. Before you know it, Junpei, Airi, Ritsuko and Celcia are taking her on to save the world!

    Now the Elf Hunters' trek for the spell fragments continues. They head deep into the ocean to help an Elf being attacked by a terrifying monster-shark, and then help the townspeople in a small village full of Pizzi look-alike teddy bears. Remember when Celcia was turned into Spot the dog? This time she's turned into a panda! Read this volume to find out the how and the why!

    For example, fat and jolly Santa Clauses (yes Virginia, there is more than one Santa Claus) bounce around the surreal countryside. Even the laws of science and nature are slightly different. Junpei, whose strength only seemed to be physical up to now, suddenly impresses his friends with his intellectual might. Junpei? Smart? Puleeeeze! In the strange world in which our heroes find themselves, wherever they go, the stalwart adventurers, Junpei, Celcia, Airi and Ritsuko are always selflessly helping those in need aid. However, to Celcia's dismay, she is still stuck in her her adorable (to everyone else, that is) panda form. The adventures of the Elf Hunters continue as they search high and low for the fragments to the magic spell that could mean their ticket home!

    Her goal? To take over the world and control everything in it! Our elf hunters set out to free the people from her iron yoke, making a few friends in the process. But they could use a little extra gold as they set out on this task, so they decide to enter...a museum management contest! With a little ingenuity, they manage to come out on top, but who could've guessed that when it came time for the final showdown, our heroes would come face-to-face with the chance to return home?

    After all, they need Celcia's help to get back to Japan (and Celcia is a friend). Remember Ritsuko's fondness for cute animals? Well, this time she makes friends with a fluffy little teddy bear in the mountains...but this one has a rather strange habit.

    Droves of Phantom Beasts - aliens from another world - landed and waged war against man.

    ? Only their resolve and resourcefulness in high-tech modifications will determine. Plus, Mamet has met her final days. But has she truly been destroyed for good?
