Synopsis

From the beginning of time, Powerful, grotesque Demons and beautiful, noble Guardians have battled for Earth. A deep hatred eternally burns between Demon and Guardian; the Guardians knew the Demons’ thirst for blood and power would destroy humanity and the world itself.

Eons later, in the year 2089, few Demons or Guardians remain in Neo-Shinjuku to continue their epic war. Humans rule the Earth, with no real memory of the monstrous Demons or angelic Guardians. Yet, deep within the dark underworld of the city, the supreme Demon is still alive and plotting, once again, to overtake mankind. Only one Guardian is left to do battle, and the fate of the human race hangs in the balance…

Twilight of the Dark Master's elaborate story will transport you to a world full of ornate imagery and exotic characters.

Reviews

Twilight of the Dark Master isn't the worst OVA I've seen, it just greatly suffers from the lack of run time and inherent need to leave a lot out. The premise is quite interesting, and perhaps would play out a little better over a longer run time, but as it is there's just not enough here that would justify a purchase. Is it entertaining and relatively enjoyable? Yes. Something you'll want to watch over and over? Probably not. (Anime-On-DVD)
