Super Aleste is a manga adaptation of the game of same name, serialized in the Monthly ASCII Comic in February 1993. The manga was written by Kubo Muneo and illustrated by Okazaki Sami.
Overview[]
The manga is a retelling of the story of the game, following the same basic premise but elaborating on the characters and setting while taking some artistic liberties and expanding the lore.
Much like in the game, the story focuses on protagonists Raz and Thi as they fight against the Sphere. Unlike in the game, the story takes place entirely on Earth, featuring new characters acting as allies or antagonists.
Characters[]
- Raz and Thi: Both characters return from the game, serving the same role of protagonists, though both have their backgrounds expanded.
- Kyle: Raz's best friend and also a pilot in the Air Force.
- Diane Napier: Captain of the Air Force 00 and the Salina Cruz carrier.
- Leonard Conklin: CEO of Nova International Company, a military subcontractor, and main antagonist of the story.
