Tsukasa Hojo's original "City Hunter" is a very popular comic that started serializing in "Weekly Shonen Jump" in 1985 and has a cumulative circulation of over 50 million copies. 2020 will celebrate the 35th anniversary, and it is a work that continues to fascinate many people regardless of country or generation. The new top combination Ayakaze Sakina and Asazuki Kiwa will take on the challenge of creating the first stage version of this masterpiece hard-boiled comedy! “XYZ” written on the public message board at the east exit of Shinjuku Station is a message to require the service of Saeba Ryō, aka “CITY HUNTER”. Ryō is the best “sweeper” in the underworld, whose operation is to wipe out evil or injustice. The last three letters of the alphabet, XYZ, means “reaching a dead end”. The helpless, who have fallen into difficult situations that cannot be solved by legitimate means, come to him for help with their last hopes. Ryō only takes on cases that involve beautiful women or when his client’s request moves his heart. This morning, as always, Makimura Kaori's yelling echoes throughout Ryō's fictitious business office, Saeba Corporation. Ryō is a highly skilled gunman and a compassionate man who can be counted on in a pinch. But he is somewhat “loose” in his personal life and that irritates his partner, Kaori. While they are having a spat, Ryō gets a visit from Nogami Saeko who is a beautiful and capable detective of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. Ryō and Saeko have known each other for a long time. She asks him to work as a bodyguard for Princess Alma, who has defected to Japan from the Kingdom of Gujamala, a small African state where a military coup arose. Saeko adds this is at the request of the princess herself. Ryō, whose only interests are beautiful mature women, is reluctant to escort the princess when he learns she is only 17 years old. Around the same time, a note with “XYZ” is left on the message board at Shinjuku Station. This is a request from an actress Utsunomiya Oto, whose son is in trouble with a Japanese organized crime group. Struck by the beautiful actress’s concern about her son, Ryō accepts her request with no hesitation. A short while later, a man from the U.S. comes to visit Ryō and Kaori. It is Mick Angel, who is Ryō’s first partner in the U.S. where he used to live. What is the purpose of his visit to Japan? The coup in the Kingdom of Gujamala, the request from Utsunomiya Oto… The two different cases gradually become linked to one another.
