Description:
Sixteen-year-old Junta has a problem: whenever he thinks about a girl sexually, he throws up. Yet he's destined to become the Mega-Playboy who will sire 100 sons, who in turn will sire 100 sons apiece, and so on, producing a population crisis in the future. DNA manipulator Karin arrives from the future to prevent him from initiating a personal baby boom. She inadvertently injects him with a compound that periodically transforms the sniveling nerd into a suave dreamboat--creating the very problem she came to solve. Although the maladroit geek who somehow wins a crowd of admiring babes is a standard setup for anime comedies, DNA2 (1994) flopped when it aired in Japan. The biggest problem with the series is that the often nasty violence doesn't mesh with the romantic farce. (Unrated; suitable for ages 16 and older: profanity, brief nudity, risqué and gross humor, violence, violence against women) --Charles Solomon
