Description: Devil Hunter Yohko
Devil Hunter Yohko, commonly known as Mamono Hunter Yohko, is a japanese animation series about 16 year old Yohko Mano. She is your typical guy-crazy teenager who shows up late to school, hangs out with her best friend Chi, and is a little lax about studying. However, cute, bouncy Yohko has been training since childhood in the art of Devil Hunting (unbeknowngst to her) by her Grandma-ma Madoka, and inherits the mantle of being the 108th generation Devil Hunter.
The series is a an action/comedy with a tiny flair for sexual situations, most notably in Volume 1, as we watch Yohko mercifulessly banish the demons from Earth. Along the way Yohko almost loses her virginity, gains a sidekick named Azusa, frees a prince from emprisonment, and dies (but just a little). Nobody will ever nominate the series for ground-breaking storylines, but Devil Hunter Yohko is nevertheless a fun series. Although the first volume is a little racy for some, the rest of the volumes are more appropriate for general viewing.
