“City Hunter: Un mágnum destinado al amor”

Ryo Saeba (the same as on the “mama Chicho” television channel renamed “Coque Saeba”) and his tireless companion Kaori are contracted by a famous pianist, Nina Steinberg, to bring her father back. According to the artist, his whereabouts are unknown but her grandfather thinks he is dead. What starts as a relatively conventional family investigation has an unexpected twist when the womanising main character discovers a plot revolving around a sought-after microchip.  Millions of followers of the adventures of Colt Phyton’s detective and his red Mini Cooper say that “Magnum of Love and Fate” is the best adaptation among Tsukasa Hojo’s very entertaining work. Millions of people can’t be wrong... on this matter of course.
