A school that teaches young boys and girls how to become famous anchorpeople in the media. But there is something strange going in this school. The facility takes a sick pride in handing our S & M style punishments to students for the most trivial things. But there is one among them, a hero that hides her face but bares everything else in the name of justice. Her name is Kekko Kamen, all know the legend of how Kekko Kamen defeated the evil Mangriffin in a local high school, but now she's back and out to stop the evil twisted fiends once again.

Alicia I love this movie so much
VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
guisreis This Japanese manga-based comedy superhero film is very bad. Off course a surrealistic B-movie with poor visual effects may be good, and even the bizarre idea of a naked super heroine with an rabbit-eared red mask and scarf who fights with her beautiful body (and has a special strike in which she performs an epic jump, opens her legs and strangles the enemy between her thighs) and with a nunchaku (that she uses quite well) is not the problem (and could also be funny). The drawbacks are that acting and dialogs are awful and poor, and the story is ridiculous, campy and somewhat misogynous: evil and powerful TV journalism training school owners torture the students (who are all girls) in a childish but also sexual way, and the superheroine Kekkô Kamen saves the day fighting them in order to allow the victims to "accomplish their dreams". Villains are purposely the most ridiculous possible, and it was not funny but just one more reason to hate the film. Anyway, an important lesson everyone may learn by watching it is that sexual sublimation in real life is not a good motivation for creating sane movies. Sexual harassment is not a topic suitable for jokes. Close-ups on breasts and panties give the impression that teenagers who are just discovering sex are responsible for direction and cinematography. By its weirdness and theme, the film could be nothing else but Japanese.
gridoon2018 What looks good on the pages of a comic book or in animated form does not always translate well into live action, and this version of "Kekko Kamen" might be one of those cases. The film is extremely bizarre, asking you to abandon all logic and accept it on its own terms; but even if you're willing to do that, the script is dull and repetitive, the prolonged "lighthearted" scenes of torture and humiliation are not much fun, and the "action" scenes are poor - though the woman who plays the title character does handle her nunchucks pretty well and has one cool scene where she twists a guy's neck between her thighs. The "good girl" heroine is adorable and has a wonderful smile, but that's not enough to get this film a recommendation. *1/2 out of 4.
lordzedd-3 Now this is the kind of women libs agent I love to run into in a dark alley. This is based on a Japanese anime as you may or may not be aware of. In the Anime, she was way bigger, if you know what I mean. But I guess they could help that. The only problem I have with subtitles is when they talk fast, it's hard for me, the reader of the subtitles to keep up. One thing I like is that they are keeping to campy fun of the anime. The costume is exact to the anime, even though I don't remember the scarf being so long. Anyway, the cast does a great job with the silly premise given to them and what man wouldn't like naked Karate? Hmm? So in conclusion ladies and jelly spoons like me make this fact perfectly clear. I enjoyed this movie. Now if you are somehow offended by nudity, then is is NOT THE MOVIE FOR YOU! But as for me, I am giving it a big 9 STARS!
LARSONRD I'll admit I picked this one up as a guilty pleasure – it's dumb and campy and cheap and every 13-year-old's wet dream but it's still a fair amount of fun. Kekko Kamen is a female super-heroine who rescues the abused girls of a draconian news announcer's finishing school. Thing is: she is completely naked except for a bright red, floppy-eared hood she covers her head with – which has a long cape-like sash that also tends to obligatorily obscure her region-of-hidden-delights. It's a comic book comedy for nerds (it is based on Japanese manga) whose heroine's attire may be the film's primary attraction – but even in its intentional inanity (at one point, a character convinces another to do something because "it is the right thing to do, and because it advances the plot…"), the story remains a lot of fun – like an old fashioned Republic serial, with Asians, and a cool pop theme song, and in color, and with no clothes. The film's low budget is also very noticeable, but the film's charming innocence (even in the fashion of a mostly naked protagonist) works in spite of that.
