"Here is Greenwood" is what you've been waiting for - In My Not
So Humble Opinion ^_^.  My son [14] and I have watched all three
OVAs at least four times in the last week, and have cursed fate that
the Japanese have done it again!!!  They have a habit of developing
marvelous ideas (BGC, OMG, and too, too many others...) and then,
they only do 2-8 episodes of the title.  Oh well, better some then not
having any...

Greenwood is excellent, isn't it?  My fansub wish-list would be complete if
someone were to do a commercial release of Bastard! now.

However, there were *6* OAVs, not 3.  Software Sculptors just chose to
release it on 3 tapes.  (saying it's 3 OAVs would be like me saying it's 1.5
OAVs because my fansub of it takes 1.5 tapes ---  yes, I supported Software
Sculptors by getting the commercial version)

:)

Yeah, Koko Wa Greenwood is quite cool.  (I still need to start getting 
the commercial release.)  Unfortunately, due to some minor copyright 
problems witht the names in Bastard!!, I don't think it'll be released in 
America any time soon.  (Though I could be wrong, since I have seen the 
Soundtrack at my local comic shop, the japanese version, but sold by 
Pioneer in the US.
