I'm a newbie! Also, Viper Doujinshi
« on: November 04, 2005, 08:54:39 am »
Hi I'm new to this forum, but so far what I've seen is great!
I'm a big fan of the Viper GTS series, but I have never even heard of the previous Viper games, and mangas.
I will be "the" Viper fan!

well with the grand masters floating around, that will change in short order if you ask questions, or check the older threads.

And please do ask. We love excuses to shoot our random knowledge around.

Bravery is better than a faint heart for a man seeking to put his nose out of doors. My fate and the number of my days has already been decided.

If GTS is your thing then you might want to see the Viper GTS videos. There are three episodes. You can by them in the US, or get it from a Paysite. Japanation.com use to have them for free. However, there site hasn`t been working properly for awhile.

There are two different versions available for Region 1 (USA & Canada).  The censored. region-free version is cheaper and only has Mercedes (the redhead) on the cover.  The uncensored, region 1 only version is probably twice the price and has all three girls on the cover.

Umm, what is the other Viper series about? Is there any Viper GTS manga or anything like that?

There's a number of Viper GTS doujinshi.  Most of them were collected into the Viper Anthologies Collections.  There's 3 of them in the gallery right now.

If you're a big of Viper GTS fan you may want to check out the Viper GTS paperback novel.  It's the original Viper GTS story that went on to be adapted into the Viper GTS game.  It's about 3-4 chapters, and each chapter follows one of the Viper GTS characters.  There's a chapter for Carrera, Mercedes, and even Alphina.  The Viper GTS OVA follows the novel pretty closely, though I'm sure some stuff was left out. The novel's in Japanese and a steal at 600 yen.

Did the Sogna store that appeared on their site close down when the company went bankrupt?  I dreamt of visiting that place due to the huge amount of Viper goodies...

Where actually can I find the Viper GTS novel or manga?

I have looked many places on the web, when I found the ebay item, which was Piper GTS doujinshi I was outbid.

If you all know anywhere in USA,Japan,whatever, could you please help me out and tell me the site it is being sold at?

(Topic moved to Viper forum, and merged with thread about Viper Doujinshi. -HG)

The Viper GTS novel is often sold on Yahoo Japan, and it can be bought through Rinkya:

http://rinkya.com/twview.pl?URL=http://page5.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/e45439420

Other places that might stock it are some Japanese bookstores.  There are a few that sell Viper books online.

Also, jpqueen.com has Viper doujinshi for sale from time to time.

I'm managed to get most of the doujinshi anthologies from jpqueen for under $10 each.  Availability is spotty though, so it pays to check that site at least once a month to see if they have any in stock.  The only real killer is shipping.  The Viper GTB artbook I bought from them ended up costing around $8-10 in shipping.  But then again, it was worth it. =D

Viper Limited != Viper-GTS Novel Edition
Limited is the short story collection about each of the four characters I think.  The novel is what the OVA is based on.

Here's the cover:
