ロードス島戦記
Group SNE pioneered a new book genre called "replay". Replays are RPG session logs arranged for reading, similar in style to light novels. The first replay, "Record of Lodoss War", is a replay of "Dungeons &amp; Dragons". From that time, replays became popular in Japan, and not only with RPG gamers. Several characters and parties in replays are as popular as characters of anime (for example, the beautiful female elf Deedlit in "Record of Lodoss War", who was played by the male science fiction novelist Hiroshi Yamamoto).
