I was wondering if anyone could help me recall an anime (not even sure if it's a film or series) I vaugely recall seeing on TV years ago.
I'm afraid I can't offer many leads as I saw it back in the early-to-mid '90s here but here's what I've got: It was on Channel 4 here in the UK back when they were showing the odd bit of anime on Friday nights. So yeah, definitely early-ish '90s. One of the major characters (main protagonist? I can't recall) was a rather androgynous-looking man/woman with (probably) white hair and was armed with some sort of razor-sharp dental floss - a wire of some sort used to chop people into bits I guess. It had a sci-fi setting. Yeah, not much to go on huh? Still, if anything springs to mind then please let me know. It's kinda bugging me. Thanks! -Withnail |

I doubt it was this, but maybe:

Well the character looks right but it doesn't seem to be sci-fi. Still, thanks anyway.
Any other suggestions folks? |

Sounds like its probably Cyber City ODEO 808. Was released in the UK in the 90's. One of the main protagonists has white hair and if I remember correctly uses a wire. Also has a futuristic sci-fi setting. The character in question (benten) is also androgynous. I think he might actually be a transvestite, not certain though.

And we have a winner!
Not that it was a competition but I think you're right on the money Mr Mania - the characters on the video cover look familiar. My mind is at rest now. heh Cheers mate! |
