Well nothing special here in this anime. A pair of demons come to earth to hunt bad demons. The difference between "Bad" demons and our "heroes" being a little fuzzy here. The girl is an ice demon and the male has a magic staff and a talking hat on his head. They are aided by a Kappa (local frog like spirit) who has gone native and spends most of his time on his cell phone. Our demons can also appear as gothy children as a clever disguise.
The mysteries don't have any bite even when a "vampire" is involved. The animation has a nice retro quality but nothing special. Worse any feeling of terror is mollified by "comic relief" where our hero is a constant perv. Nothing new in anime it is just something that grates very wrong here with the material.
STRANGE SPANNERS being an accounting of strangeness of the warp and woof of my mind For those of you new here, think of this as 1/2 "Night Gallery" Our Motto: Nos somnium quisnam es futurus fatum quod insolitus tutus vos!
