Here are brief biographies of the people behind the scenes, those
responsible for the manga, anime, and CDs. Much of the voice actor
information came from Hitoshi Doi's excellent
Seiyuu
(voice actor) database. The abbreviation SD stands for Seima Densetsu
(Legend of the Divine Demon), the second anime series.
