Kekko Kamen is the ultimate super-hero. Dressed only in her mask and red leather boots and armed with an array of highly unusual attacks she fights crime wherever she finds it. And the
Delinquent in Drag isn?t perverted his parents just bought him the wrong the school uniform. What?s a boy to do?

Shuten Doji both episodes of
Kekko Kamen and all of
