Title: | City Hunter |
Episode: | 26: What is Love? Ryo's Course in Proper Romance |
Synopsis |
18 year old Yuki has lived a privledged, "greenhouse" life thanks to her overprotective father. When she insists on taking a modest job at a local hamburger joint, he hires Ryo to protect her from the male customers. However, as Kaori points out, that's rather like hiring a fox to guard the chicken coop. |
Comments |
An unusual episode, for several reasons. Not once does Ryo draw his gun, or even throw a punch! There are no villains here, except perhaps for Yuki's naivette about men and love. She has never so much as been on a date, and Ryo seeks to familiarize her with the rules of romance without getting her hurt. Can he contain his own infamous lechery long enough to get the job done? A surprising and highly enjoyable peek at the "soft side" of tough guy Ryo Saeba. My grade: A- |
