Bodyguard work, danger, and comic complications

This omnibus installment brings together several strands of Ryo Saeba’s work as a “sweeper” in 1980s Tokyo, mixing bodyguard duties and underworld assignments with raunchy comedy. One case begins when a fleeing immunologist lands on Ryo’s car; a hornet sting and an incomplete antidote then add a bodily complication to the danger. The premise puts action and farce side by side, while the larger setting of Tokyo’s nightlife and criminal underworld links the volume’s varied jobs.

City Hunter follows Ryo Saeba, an exceptional marksman and compassionate "sweeper" who cleans up the corruption of 1980s Tokyo nightlife, one bullet at a time.

In this fourth volume, the stakes fall from the sky when a "bride" literally lands on Ryo's car. She is a brilliant immunologist fleeing unknown pursuers, and Ryo quickly steps into his familiar role as a high-stakes bodyguard.

The mission takes a disastrous turn when Ryo is stung by a poisonous hornet. His desperate attempt to inject an incomplete antidote results in an outrageous side effect, triggering Ryo's greatest "Mokkori Crisis" ever. From underground odd jobs to vengeful assassinations, Ryo must navigate smoldering dramas and quick-witted thrills while battling his own biology.
