Description:

This silly three-part adventure plays like a nudie version of Sailor Moon. When Yohko Mano turns 16, her grandmother explains that she must assume her role as a "Devil Hunter," continuing a family tradition that has lasted 107 generations. And not a moment too soon: The sadistic high school principal is plotting to resurrect the queen of the demons in a ritual that involves the blood of Hideki, the guy Yohko nurtures a crush on. With the help of a magic ring and sword, Yohko dispatches the baddies and assumes her new career. In episodes 2 and 3, Yohko's best friend, Chi, becomes her "manager," and she acquires an apprentice, Azusa Kanzaki. In all three, Yohko tackles a variety of demons while losing the top of her outfit and/or flashing her panties. The plots are riddled with more holes than Yohko's costumes. Grandma Madoka explains a Devil Hunter has to be a virgin, yet she's still offing evil spirits; after Yohko saves her adored Hideki's life by killing the demons in episode 1, he simply evaporates and is never heard of again. For otaku seeking "fan service" only. Rated 17 Up: Violence, nudity, sexual situations, risqué humor, profanity. --Charles Solomon
