- summary by Jared

In EL Hazard the OAV the story is much shorter and it focus more on the power Makato has inside of him and on his love with the demon goddess Ifurita. It is short and sweet. The ending was good too, it kinda got to the ending while, we know that some time elepases between when the eye of god is stopped and he goes and gets Ifurita from earth. The second OAV’s series which is only have as long, focus more on the wedding of the goddess Mise and Mr. Fujisawa. There is also another demon goddess named Kalia, who is a lot meaner than Ifurita...In The Wanderers, the series focus more on some of the characters, something the OAV’s had no time for...
