Capsule Description
A girl who holds military secrets in her head is wanted by terrorists. In steps Mythril, an international mercenary group, to protect her. Who do they send to protect her?--A high school aged boy, who has grown up as a mercenary and now comes to Japan posing as a high school student in order to protect the girl. Not the deepest storyline (at least by episode seven), but hey, it's and action/comedy kinda thing so the plot doesn't matter too much. Right? If nothing else the art is really good.
Member Reviews
The first few episodes are solid slapstick comedy, with teenaged mercenary Sagara Souske responding to everyday situations with paranoia and violence. Fortunately, the plot picks up and gets serious later on, then goes back and forth between the two modes. In all a good combination of comedy and action, with enough romance and drama to avoid feeling empty. --EnragedFilia 02:41, 9 February 2007 (PST)
