Anime Pocket Guide Description:
If you're desperate and need a job
done, write "XYZ" on the bulletin board at Shinjuku Station. That is
a signal that you want to hire City Hunter. Ryo Saeba and Kaori Makumura make
up City Hunter. Ryo is calm, cool, and an amazingly accurate shot. He is also
the biggest lech since Ataru Moroboshi. Kaori is the sister of Ryo's deceased
partner and runs the business side of City Hunter. She is also the only woman
who Ryo *hasn't* made a pass at. The jobs have ranged from being a bodyguard
(usually a pretty girl :-)) to virtual espionage. Kaori has kept Ryo's
frequent sukebe tendencies in check with an 50,000 kg mallet. :-) This is an
action-adventure with some comedy elements.
