Plot: Handsome schoolboy Yosuke (Hayato Ichihara) is attracted to daring schoolgirl Eri (Megumi Seki) after she rescues him from a cloaked giant wielding a chainsaw. Straight from the Gogo Yubari school of martial arts, Eri does battle every night against this demon from the moon, whose arrival is heralded by suspended snowflakes.

Mourning a daredevil chum who fulfilled his death wish in a motorcycle accident, Yosuke wants to do something with his life - and impressing Eri seems a good place to start. With her martial-arts ability, street smarts and mature demeanor, Eri outclasses him in every way, but still consents to a dinner date.
