Obi-Wan Kenobi rides a motorcycle and Luke and Leia get married at the end. :S

Cool, thanks for sharing that. Funny how the imperial star destroyer at the beginning looks kind of like Space Battleship Yamato.

I thought the same thing. Overall, some very odd interpretations of the story. I'm looking forward to further translations.

It'd be cool if "someone" would reprint this in English. :lol:
