Sunabouzu - 1: The Demon and the Boobs

Title:Sunabouzu
Episode:1: The Demon and the Boobs
Synopsis
In a near-abandoned town in the desolate Kantou desert, three grotesque punks of the Kawazu clan are beating up a couple and their child. A short, masked man interupts their fun, and demands to know if they were responsible for an attack upon water station 45, because he's been hired to recover the "treasure" that was taken. They scoff at the puny man--which turns out to be a mistake, as this is none other than Sunabouzu, "the demon of the sand". Later, clan leader Kawazu Makoto recieves a highly insulting letter which challenges him and his underlings to a fight. Makoto remains calm until the letter makes a certain claim about his mother's appearance, which sends him into a flying rage. Meanwhile, having handily dealt with the three punks, Sunabouzu happens upon a buxom girl lying unconscious on the ground. After an initial misunderstanding, she says she was kidnapped by the Kawazu clan and has just escaped. Sunabouzu would like to find the clan headquarters, and as it turns out, this is surprisingly easy...

Stretch 3/16/05: I love this show! There, I've said it. There are all sorts of humorous touches above and beyond what you ordinarily get--the grotesque faces of the Kawazu punks, the gestures they use, Sunabouzu's combat techniques, Makoto's dietary preference, the inflamatory letter, the trick Asagiri Junko plays on Sunabouzu--it just overflows with comedy. Nothing like the grim, "Roadwarrior" style show I feared it would turn out to be!
