Saiga Riki-oh is a man with a strong sense of justice and a knack for brutally killing people (understatement). He can be distinguished by his supernatural strength and the "Six Pointed Star" (Star of David) on his right hand. He has been sent to prison charged with assault.

I watched a very low quality sub. The res had likely been truncated/adulterated even further down to 480x360 to create a small file size. (appropriate low quality badness. this aint no rolls royce OVA) no idea where i got it or who made it.

If you like mindless gory violence set to a 1980s soundtrack, then “Riki-Oh: Toukatsu Jigoku” is for you. From start to finish, this 48-minute long OVA is packed with blood, guts, torture and death, leaving little room for much else.

The gist of the story is that Riki-Oh Saiga, a mysterious man with superhuman strength, is arrested and put into prison for killing someone. Why he kills this person isn’t made clear in the anime, but according to the synopsis here (which is likely based on the manga) it’s because the person killed his girlfriend. This prison is filled with people who enjoy killing. The prisoners ...
