Set in the Meiji era, Kidou Shinsengumi Moeyo Ken tells the story of Kondou Yuuko, Hijikata Toshie and Okita Kaoru. These three are the daughters of former Shinsengumi members and, in the same fashion as their fathers were, get called upon to protect Japan from its current problems. Much of their work deals with vanquishing the mysterious paranormal phenomena springing up ever more frequently in the Kyoto area and defending the city from any other dangers that may arise.

From the depths of unimagination comes Moeyo Ken. Probably, one of the worst anime OAVs I have ever witnessed. What kills the entire series is that the story line is supposedly set in feudal Japan. However, the story takes a bad turn when it introduces hi-tech armor and a police car?! A POLICE CAR IN FEUDAL JAPAN?!?!?! It probably wasn't obvious to Takahashi Rumiko that this series would be absolute crap.After all this, it is official...I have wasted two hours of my life watching Moeyo Ken. Avoid this title at all costs. This is an insult to anyone who enjoyed Inuyasha or Urusei Yatsura.
