Devil Hunter Yohko
Collection 1
Anime DVD Review
Supernatural forces are once again threatening the world. High school teachers are being possessed by demons. The blood of the innocent needs to be protected, and a cute, high school girl is once again called upon to save us all. And like other fighters of her breed, she can't seem to keep her clothes on.
 Devil Hunter Yohko, a 1990 Toho release (the studio responsbile for notables like Godzilla), is a fun, fast-pace entry in anime of the Cutey Honey persuasion. The character design, toilet humor, and fight scenes are well done rather than overdone. Nudity and adult siuations don't get too graphic. Funnier scenes are somewhat reminescent of dear Lum, and her antics featured in Urusei Yatsura.
The American dubbing job in this 1995 ADV release is painless and faithful. Beware, while this DVD collection is definitely NOT extreme hentai, it also can't be confused with Sailor Moon. Devil Hunter Yohko, with its violent scenes, talk about virginity, and soul searches on "giving boys what they want", is definitely not for children.
