[edit] Plot
Imagine if a Yo-Yo champion, a group of martial arts afficionados, some sci-fi freaks, some schoolgirl fetishists, and a gaggle of pyromaniacs were thrown into a small room and told they could not leave until they came up with a script for an action film. Well, the result might be something close to Sukeban Deka, the film adaptation of the immensely popular manga-turned-TV-show of the same name. This tale sees the second Sukeban Deka (translated: girl boss detective/policewoman) and her team of schoolgirl super-agents wielding trademark weapons of recreation (ranging from marbles to Sukeban Deka’s steel Yo-Yo) in their fight to free captive students from an evil school, hellbent on converting them into soldiers of an evil revolution. It’s a far out kitch-fest with just about everything you could want in an action film: helicopters, explosions, guns, cute girls, cute girls with guns, massive crashes, hard hitting martial arts, walls of fire, flying debris, and more, all set to an infectiously funky, crazy-cool soundtrack!
