About D4 Princess

If you are hunting for a new action series, D4 Princess (D4 プリンセス) deserves a look (1999). The setup goes like this. At its core: Doris Ruridou is young princess who had just entered Teito Academy. She is also a Panzer, a person with special abilities and fights with a weapon called a "tool".

Beyond that: Shortly after entering, her older sister shows up to teach her how to confront as a Panzer against other Panzers who challenge her.
