Description:

Previously unreleased in the U.S., the second K. O. Beast OVA continues the slapstick silliness of the first. Half-tiger Wan, half-bird Bud, and mermaid-princess Mei-Mer are still searching for the mysterious entity Gaia, who may be able to reunite the sundered hemispheres of the Earth. Czar Master, the nasty human leader, thinks the girl Yuni chan Password may be the key to Gaia. He dispatches V-Darn and V-Sion, two inept lackeys reminiscent of Team Rocket, and the stronger Icelegal to capture Yuni in the Mermaid city of Outlantis. The action is frantic with lots of extreme takes and over-the-top gags: at times, K.O. Beast feels like a cross between Slayers and Pokémon. Plot and character development are virtually nonexistent, but viewers looking for gleeful insanity probably won't care. (Rated 13 and older: violence, minor profanity, alcohol use) --Charles Solomon
