I'm having some trouble finding the "Heroic Legend of Arislan" and "Here Is Greenwood" (Koko wa Greenwood). On http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Towers/8072/ they state: "The story (Heroic Legend of Arislan) then has been made into an animation which includes 6 volumes of video tapes so far." I've only ever seen up through part 4 of the series (which is on the 3rd tape with part three, the 4th tape if you think of the movie version as tape one) but I can't find the others anywhere (it's pretty obvious that the story continues) In other words I haven't seen the last two volumes. I'll even take manga, scans, or commercial products. Any help would be great.

As for "Here Is Greenwood", it's another older (but not that old) anime that I'm having trouble finding. I saw the first few eps but know there're more. As above for Arislan, I'll take it any way I can get it. The only thing I was able to find for it was the first few volumes of manga on http://www.snoopycool.com/

By the way, both of these anime/manga are great, I recommend them both.

P.S. Please don't just make suggestions (as look on Kazaa or use DC), please tell me exactly where to find this stuff as I have already looked around quite a bit.

I can't help you for Arislan. I've also been looking for it. I have the Volume 1 and 2 for the VDS's and I think the VHS I have is Volume 3 or 4...but nothing after that.

I'd also like to know...Kazaa doesn't have it. Have you tried MIRC?

MIRC is pretty much the only place I haven't looked yet. The thing I'm not sure of is that I don't know if the last few episodes were even subbed in english (by US Manga Corps)like the first 4 parts were, nor does it seem like anyone has fansubbed it. I found a tidbit of information on http://carnage.fanfic.org/arislan.html

"Recently, USMC finally managed to get the last two volumes of this series, so now you get the whole story...at long last. The dubbing job isn’t fantastic but it’s tolerable. A pretty good series; recommended for fantasy fans."

From this I assume that USMC has now released the final two volumes. However, a USMC 2-dvd set that comes out on the eleventh for Arislan only has through part 4. When I looked on USMC's website, they still only had through part 4. But then, I went to http://www.arslansenki.net/review5.htm

This site review OAVs 5 and 6 but doesn't say where to get them. However, after reading the review, I'm not sure I want to buy them anymore. Read it yourself, it's pretty convincing. I think I'll concentrate my search on looking for the manga, which probably keeps the flavor of the first four parts. Let me know if you run across the manga.

Heroic Legend of Iraslan was licensed by Central Park Media...I don't know anything about the fansubbing. Here is Greenwood was licensed by Software Sculptors, so if you want them you can, like, buy them or something.

This is the best Arislan DVD to buy I think -

http://videovault.diamondcomics.com/update/sept_03/SEP033793.jpg http://www.centralparkmedia.com/dbimages/USMD_2375a.jpg

Episodes 1-6 Dubbed and Subbed. It's released on the 11th November 2003. I've wasted enough time searching for a place to download the remaining episodes of this fantastic anime, so I'm just going to buy this.
