Sorcerer on the Rocks

Story

The title of this two-part OAV was changed from Chivas 1-2-3 for the U.S. release because of copyright issues. The slapstick sword-and-sorcery saga takes place on the Spooner Continent, the setting for Sorcerer Hunters, but the only link between the shows is screenwriter Hiroyuki Kawasaki. Shibas Scotch is a cloddish wizard-warrior, who travels with curvaceous "Sister of the Gold Cross" Gin Fizz; Kiss, an elfin werewolf; and Genmi, a junior warrior with a terminal crush on "Lord Shibas." To settle the debt Shibas owes the raucous Million Dollar, the quartet is forced to fight a monster that's either a god or an extremely advanced war robot. It all adds up to a very silly mock epic that overflows with "fan service" nudity. The OAV feels like a pilot for a series that remains unmade. Rated 15+: Nudity, violence, violence against women, sexual humor, alcohol and tobacco use. --Charles Solomon
