Description:

Based on Yuchi Kumakura's popular manga character Odorobou Jing, the self-proclaimed King of the Bandits is a sort of pubescent Robin Hood. He wanders from place to place, picking up treasure and nonchalantly aiding people in distress. He breaks the bank when he breaks up an illegal gambling ring aboard a ghost ship, and rescues a lovely girl condemned to death for the crime of tardiness in Adonis, a city ruled by the "Demon of Time." When the inevitable fight begins, Jing relies on his lightning-fast moves and the sword blade concealed in the sleeve of his outsized coat. Kir, his parrot-like sidekick, transforms into the formidable monster Kir Royale when bad guys need blasting. The tone remains firmly tongue-in-cheek, with Kir trying to romance every girl in sight. (Rated 13 and older, but suitable for viewers 2-3 years younger: violence, brief nudity) --Charles Solomon
