Description:
Saki Asamiya is an unlikely heroine: while serving time in prison on trumped-up charges, she's forced to become an undercover police agent to keep her mother, who's serving time on death row, from being executed. She returns to her old high school and acquires two friends: gentle artist Junko and adoring Sampei Nowake. The three Mizuchi sisters, the daughters of a corrupt politician, are using the school to launch their own schemes that include extortion, assault, drug-dealing, kidnapping, rape, and murder. In addition to her skill as martial artist, Saki fights with a police-issue yo-yo (!), which becomes a deadly weapon in her hands. The improbable and violent story gets sorted out in the end--more or less, but it hardly seems worth the bother. (Rated 15 and older, but more appropriate for 17 and older: nudity, violence, violence against women, sexual situations, profanity, alcohol, tobacco and drug use) --Charles Solomon
