Description:
Ninja and their techniques fascinate high school student Recca Hanabishi, which isn't surprising, as he's the last surviving member of a great ninja clan who was magically transported into the 20th century. When he meets gentle Yanagi Sakoshita, Recca declares that she's his princess and he's her personal guardian. Yanagi possesses a supernatural ability to heal; Recca discovers he can conjure fire blasts with his right hand. Some of their school chums also possess magical powers, which they need when they're tested by Kagehoshi, the deathless shadow priestess--and more sinister foes are waiting in the wings. Voice actor Scott

Voice actor Scott Roberts gives rhinestone-in-the-rough Recca a rambunctious appeal that keeps the story moving. Flame of Recca (1997) plays like a cross between Ranma 1/2 and Yu Yu Hakusho, and will appeal to fans of both series. (Unrated, suitable for ages and 12 older: violence, tobacco use, brief nudity) --Charles Solomon
