Description:

The slam-bang conclusion of this comedy-adventure pits Shiro against the Dark Gatekeeper, whom he knows as his classmate Kageyama. A psychic who was tormented as a child, Kageyama has grown powerful enough to enslave Invader leaders Baron Akuma and Kaiser Kikai. During the climactic mecha confrontation (which takes place, inevitably, at Tokyo Tower), Kageyama reveals that the Invaders are not aliens but biological experiments that feed on human greed: the increasingly materialistic society of postwar Japan has provided them with the ideal breeding ground. When the Invaders seize AEGIS headquarters, Shiro is the only organization officer free, and his team of teenage psychics rallies around him. He defeats Kageyama before the "Gate of Massacre" is completed and frees Ruriko with some help from the mysterious Yukino, the psychic of the snows, and his late father's inventions. (Rated 13 and older: violence, mild profanity, occasional risqué humor) --Charles Solomon
