Presented as found, bought this one for about $20 to upload as I already had a copy of my own. This book has odd numbering as it considers the first few pages to be a part of the main anthology. This is Katsuhiro Otomo's only dedicated artbook to the production of Genma Taisen/Harmagedon and includes tons of never before seen art and rarely documented pieces. Otomo's thoughts on production and a bonus section of his paintings for the Kadokawa novels, are included in this book as well at the very end.

This is essential for anyone to have a physical copy, and most books with the obi go for $50 USD. All files have been scanned in at 600 DPI. My scanner bed was almost a bit too small, but I did a few work arounds.

I didn't know what Genma Taisen was , but this made me go look it up , kudos man.

That flawed but ridiculously influential movie that invented Kanada dragons and popularized anime people radiating aura.

What I really want to know is if it's also responsible for the genre of a bunch of psychics going on a road trip to fight some ancient evil, like Mother and JoJo Pt. 3, and what else falls under that.

Like at the end of Stardust Crusaders where Araki went "Fuck it, people can fly around covered in aura now," that's probably because of this movie. In Dragon Ball characters only started flying around covered in energy in the Saiyan Saga when it became about earth's strongest gathering to stop an alien apocalypse. Who knows how many modern super power visuals just came from Harmageddon.
