Description:
The first of two linked OVA series, Password to Treasure plays like a cross between Escaflowne and Slayers. Far in the future, Earth is divided between humans and metamorphic humanoid-animals. Wan turns into a half-tiger whenever he sneezes; Bud becomes a bird when he's embarrassed, and Mei-Mer is a mermaid-princess. They want to recapture the Jinn statues, the totems of their villages, which were stolen by V-Darn and V-Sion, the nasty agents of human leader Czar Master. Both sides are searching for the unknown entity Gaia, and the little girl Yuni is the key to it all. Although the future of humanity is supposedly at stake, the battles are more slapstick than violent. The third episode ends on a cliffhanger leading into the second series, but K.O. Beast is so silly, there's no point quibbling about story structure. (Rated 13 and older: brief nudity, violence, minor profanity, alcohol use) --Charles Solomon
