I just got an LD box set of the anime called City Hunter (well, this box is of the last series, "City Hunter 91"). I really enjoy this show! Guns, car chases, cute guys, sexy women. And Hammerspace. Major hammerspace.<P>Even better, I have now seen Kaori, a true master of hammerspace, actually call a hammer from hammerspace and it appeared with an electric crackle in her hand. It was so cool!<P>If you get a chance, watch some City Hunter.<P>------------------

I've seen them lifting the hammer, or the squashed victim after being hit, but never anyone pulling it out of hammerspace.<P>------------------

heehee!<P>Yeah, Kaori is certainly one of the, if not THE Hammerspace Jedi of the anime world.<P>While I can't say I remember seeing the specific scene you describe, i HAVE seen tons of City Hunter already, and it's ALWAYS hilarious and ALWAYS a wonderful spoof of 80's Magnum P.I.-type shows!<P>It's DEFINITELY worth watching, for anyone else out there who's yet to hear of/see it! <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/biggrin.gif"><P>*goes out in search of some mokori*

I dont know some of the kanji in the name, but I'll try to take a look again tonight. I saw Umibouzu's real name in the title, though. So it'll probably be the one with "Ijyuin" in it.<P>------------------
