About Capricorn

If you are hunting for a new action series, Capricorn (カプリコン) deserves a look (1991). The setup goes like this. The setup: In the blink of an eye, high school learner Taku Shimamura stumbles on himself transported to the bizarre world of Slaffleaze, where intelligent creatures govern and the ruling class, led by the villainous Zolba. Joining together with the oppressed Slaffleaze peasants, Taku must find a way to stop Zolba`s dark forces before the way to the unsuspecting Earth is opened.

From there, in order to do so, he must first gain the love and trust of the last of the Yappie, the ancestral guardians of Slaffeaze. This is a task that will take more than a little courage and daring, for the last Yappie is not just a cute young female, she`s also a dragon.

With action at the core, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Taku (Masami Kikuchi) and Mona (Naoko Matsui) are two of the characters you will meet early.
