If Yohkos clothes all disintegrate every time she transforms...being Devil Hunter must be quite expensive.

Story:
Well, it's your standard magical girl story. Yohko is destined to become Devil Hunter, is reluctant, has to fight, accepts her fate and keeps on fighting.

Background info:

This was at one point a famous or rather infamous title back in 1990. Firstly, it was the first ADV (the company that brought over Evangelion) VHS release in the US. It was also probably the first Etchii genre anime ever to see American release. This was in the year 1990. ...
