Description: BAOH
BAOH is a show about trying to create the ultimate killing machine. Scientists have found a parasite that gives awesome powers to whoever has it. Whenever BAOH gets hurt, the host mutates and it gives more and more powers and strength to the possessor according to how much damage is done.
The story revolves around two young people, a man, who is infected with the parasite, and a female child, who freed him. They are on the run from the scientists and the military who are trying to get him back. It follows their exploits and they get closer and closer to finding out the true story of BAOH.
I thought that this particular anime was pretty good. The only problem that I had with it was that whenver BAOH demonstrated a new power, it popped up a black box with the name of the power in it. I thought that this was kind of hokey. This anime contains excessive violence.
