This, to Bancoran's eternal disgust, includes Patarillo himself. The soubriquet comes from the fact that no male under the age of 17 can resist his sexual fascination. Bancoran's nickname doesn't mean he shoots bishounen in cold blood. In the early episodes they send off a number of bishounen assassins to do in Patarillo, which necessitates his having a bodyguard, the English MI6 agent, Major Jack ('Bishounen-Killer') Bancoran. The International Diamond Syndicate - a huge semi- criminal organization/ secret society dedicated to taking over the world's entire diamond supply- wants that mine and will stop at nothing to get it.
They come from one of the most prolific mines in the world, owned by the king of Marinera, the vertically challenged but horizontally endowed boy-king Patarillo himself. The country is a major producer of diamonds they provide much of the basis of conflict in the anime series. Most of the action takes place in Marinera, the land of eternal spring, located somewhere in the South Seas.
The manga on which it is based is one of the much-read works produced for adolescent Japanese girls that features a healthy proportion of gay men and beautiful teenagers aka bishounen (beautiful boys). Patarillo! is set in a society much like ours in most ways, with one decided twist. With a tyrannical predator calling the shots, and long-forgotten memories returning to haunt them, Jonathan and Leonard begin to suspect that their greatest enemy might not actually be the Apocalypse. Working through the tough military training, he gradually grows closer to his new roommate, Leonard Schteinberg.īeneath the facade of a disciplined army base, corruption runs deep. In the year 2199, Second Lieutenant Jonathan Tyberius clears his screening tests and becomes qualified to undergo the most elite military training course-allowing him to develop the ability to pilot humanity’s own manned robots. The invaders use their human victims' knowledge and energy to pilot giant mechanical bodies, and humanity has dubbed them Apocalypse out of fear. The complete annihilation of its population made clear the mysterious assailants' aim to destroy mankind. Spread across the solar system, the race continued to prosper-until Pluto was suddenly attacked by an unknown enemy. The overcrowding of Earth forced humanity to migrate to other planets and adapt accordingly. However, is Seishirou the best candidate for her brother's love, or is he hiding sinister secrets?
Hokuto hopes that if Subaru develops feelings for Seishirou, their relationship will be the one thing that he never gives up for the sake of anyone else. This leaves him vulnerable in a city where nearly everyone makes decisions that only benefit themselves as individuals. A selfless teenager, he empathizes with others to the point that their pain may as well be his own. Subaru has to resolve a variety of spiritual conflicts in Tokyo: some are cases formally brought to him by clients, and others are matters in which he decides to involve himself. Her next favorite thing to do is try to set up Subaru with their veterinarian friend Seishirou Sakurazuka who, oddly enough, is always readily available to accompany the Sumeragis throughout the city. While Subaru is kind and shy, Hokuto has exuberance to spare, and her favorite pastime is designing bold matching outfits for the two of them to wear. Until the time comes when he must succeed his grandmother fully, Subaru is allowed to live in Tokyo with his fraternal twin Hokuto. Subaru Sumeragi is the thirteenth head of his powerful onmyouji clan.
