Synopsis | |
Review | Sixteen year old schoolgirl Yoko finds life getting rather weird, when her granny tells Yoko that she is 108th in a line of traditional devil hunters,and provided she remains a virgin will inherit the role of Devil Hunter. Yoko is unconvinced till she is attacked by strange forces and the headmistress starts conducting demonic ceremonies. The day of the Devil's Moon approaches, when Yoko must defeat the demons or the world will face disaster. And of course in anime, when heroines undergo a magical transformation, it oftem means that their their clothes fall off... This is a hilarious and sexy romp, the 18 cert being due to scenes like the one where the demonically posessed schoolboy nearly has his way with Yoko, and that where her mother gives the dismayed Yoko a chat about the facts of high school life and presents her with a string of condoms. DEVIL HUNTER YOKO Part 2 (Western Connection, subtitled, 60 mins, cert 18?, £10.99) This tape contains two 30 min episodes; the first being another demonic adventure in which Yoko acquires a cute 'assistant'. Fun, but less ambitious and not quite as good as the first video. The third episode is quite different and much more romantic in character. Yoko is transported to another world where dangerous and romantic adventures ensue. |
