Description:
Any vestiges of a coherent story line vanish as this second set of television episodes based on the 1991 feature film concludes. The revelation that Katsumi is half alien--which shattered her emotionally in the previous episodes--doesn't seem to be a problem anymore. She's back on the job with the AMP or Attacked Mystification Police (sic), fighting aliens. Love enables the long-suffering Roy to overcome the evil Ganossa, and his presence magnifies Katsumi's powers enormously. When Ganossa kills Roy, Katsumi disappears for another six months but returns as Ganossa's disciple. What began as a story about an all-female pol
Any vestiges of a coherent story line vanish as this second set of television episodes based on the 1991 feature film concludes. The revelation that Katsumi is half alien--which shattered her emotionally in the previous episodes--doesn't seem to be a problem anymore. She's back on the job with the AMP or Attacked Mystification Police (sic), fighting aliens. Love enables the long-suffering Roy to overcome the evil Ganossa, and his presence magnifies Katsumi's powers enormously. When Ganossa kills Roy, Katsumi disappears for another six months but returns as Ganossa's disciple. What began as a story about an all-female police unit fighting the Lucifer Hawk, a race of flesh-eating aliens, suddenly becomes a tale of witchcraft. New characters and plot elements proliferate. Ganossa "sold his soul" to the unseen King of the planet Nemesis; a Lucifer Hawk merges with the AMP building until the satellite Donald zaps the structure. An enormous, badly animated CG serpent appears in the middle of Tokyo; Katsumi is imprisoned by the Demon Sword Medium but is rescued (offscreen) by Avalanche Wong. AMP chief Rally Cheyenne sells her soul to rescue her sister from the clutches of Nemesis--apparently with no lasting ill effects, and by episode 25, Ganossa has been identified as "an incarnation of the Devil." Silent Mobius ends on a cliffhanger, with none of its story elements resolved: the filmmakers must have planned another season that was never made. (Rated 13 and older: violence, profanity, nudity, implied sexual situations, alcohol use) --Charles Solomon
