Viewing Notes

This is more in tune with the mid-90s I watched: better stylized animation and wild, convoluted plotting. Often saw this one in the video stores but never viewed. Nice to find a fan-subbed version on YT in Japanese. This is also indicative of the more perverse and weird adult anime of the 90s. 80s anime is generally risque and humorous in how it portrays sexuality whereas the tone is darker and more serious in the 90s. Very similar to BIO HUNTER from the same year but weirder and more complex. Yet both involve demons and demonic possession.
