DNA2 Vol. 5: Epiphany
Synopsis
Junta’s teenage great-granddaughter Lulara appears from the future, but not for a joyful family reunion. To save her own life and the future of all her kin, she’s determined to permanently transform Junta into the Mega-Playboy. His one chance for survival may be to destroy his flirtatious alter-ego… but if he succeeds, his great-granddaughter might disappear forever!
Review
Just when I thought volume four was the end of DNA2, more is added to it. In volume five, as the synopsis stated, Lulara, Junta’s great granddaughter time travels back to his time along with Mori (her master) to activate Junta’s mega playboy DNA. If this task is accomplished, Junta and his descendents will all be under Mori’s control. Quite a bright idea is not it? You have a mega playboy in Junta who could get any women in the sacks and then have a whole army of mega playboys with both the abilities to charm the ladies and fight with usual prowess. It is the perfect army anyone could ask for. But it would not be easy to accomplish their evil plans. Karin defends for her life in this volume as Mori is set to take her out with his little posse, which includes Ryuji, Lulara, and… Junta!
What? Junta?! You heard that right, Mori sent Lulara to shoot Junta with a DCM bullet that also had the ability to control a person according to his likings. So now that Junta is under Mori’s control, Karin has no chance in winning the fight; she does put up a good one however. Anyways, what could be done, now that Junta is on the evil side? Absolutely no one could do anything except for himself. That is right; Junta’s DNA has not been stabilized yet, so he flashes back to the normal Junta back and forth. Mori’s going crazy as a result of Junta changing back and forth, till finally he is not able to control him anymore.
The ending of this series was not as good as I thought. I firmly believe that if DNA2 had ended with episodes loaded with fun, it would be better. Although, if that was done, we as fans would want more, hence, giving us an unwanted obsession over DNA2, in which I would not be pleased with, because there are other things I have to get to as an anime reviewer. We have come a long way, fifteen episodes seemed as it was twenty plus episodes. DNA2 is a fun adventure that has all the elements of a great anime series. Sigh… time to move onto another series :(.
The Breakdown
DNA2 is a great series that all fans of the ecchi humor genre should pay attention to.
