    Overlooked Anime classic from the late 80's. Two worlds have existed in peace for centuries, Earth and the Black World, a realm of supernatural beings that most humans don't know about. A military group called the Radicals are intent breaching the peace and returning man to his f...( read more)ormer heritage as slaves. Two special agents, Taki, a human, and Makie, a supernatural being are enlisted to prevent the Radicals from seizing control and maintaining the peace pact between the two worlds. The two form the Black Guard who must protect a 200 year-old man named Giuseppi Mayart, the only man who can keep the peace from being murdered by the Radicals. This smart, stylish and eerie Anime is one of the early Manga greats. With cool fight scenes and a love story that both reminds me of Ninja Scroll, this is an instant hit. Lots of sex, gore and violence.
