Synopsis:
From the producers of Tsukihime Lunar Legend and director Takashi Watabe (New Fist Of The North Star) comes "Ikki Tousen (Battle Vixens)", the most outrageous, provocative, bruising, bone-crunching and underwear-flashing, fighting anime series ever! Based on the bestselling Manga by Yuji Shiozaki, this gratuitously sexy, violent and wholly entertaining series concerns the final, destiny-defining stage in an epic battle of the ages - led by a teenage girl constantly struggling to keep her clothes intact!

Volume 1 - Legendary Fighter: The girl with the Booby Bombs?

Once again blood flows in the streets of Kanto. The eternal fate that has been handed down for over 1800 years is now being fought by ancient warriors who have been reincarnated into the students of the seven top schools. One such student, Hakufu Sonsaku, arrives on the scene and is rumored to be the legendary Shou Haou (the one who is said to defeat many in battle). But can this blonde air-head with the overly-endowed assets actually be the legendary Shou Haou?

Volume 2 - Historic Battles: After her defeat by the honorable Taishigi, Hakufu takes it upon herself to fight even harder to reach the top. Even as the tournament`s battles rage on, the head of each school plots to defeat the others by manipulating their pawns into battling each other.

Will Hakufu become an unwitting tool or will she be able to control the warrior spirit growing inside her?


Volume 3 - Water Wars: Wet T-shirt battle!

Concerned for Hakufu`s well being, Goei subtly sets into motion her plans to free her daughter. She cheers on Hakufu`s opponent Kakouton as well as arranges for a deep mountain trip to visit Chokou, the caretaker of a hot springs training ground. Even Ryomou and Ryofu learn a little more of themselves at this place. Training there is difficult, so what better way to relax afterwards than to visit the local pool...?


Volume 4 - Fighting Fate: The demon awakens!

The mortal battle between Hakufu and Ukitsu has begun. A fight that will determine the future of all the fighters. Can Hakufu break the 800 year cycle? Or is death truly their fate. How can these stupid girls even try to fight their own fate?
