School in the Crosshairs

(1981)Directed by Nobuhiko Obayashi90 minFantasy, Science Fiction, Comedy

When a new student with psychic powers starts using them at school, a squad of student enforcers forms around her, and Yuka Mitamura (Hiroko Yakushimaru), a shy girl with powers of her own, vows with her friends to stop it. Nobuhiko Obayashi packs the story with fantasy, science fiction and comedy, and the film moves at a run.
