Legend of the Demon Womb continues our hero Amanojaku's quest to seek out
the Superfiend Chojin, destined to be the supreme ruler over all Humans,
Monster-Demons (the Makai) and Man-Beasts (the Jyujinkai). Admittedly the
shy Nagumo has already been experiencing some rather abnormal twists in
his personality but can this clumsy kid really be the Chojin? And why is
his good friend and cousin Takeaki acting so strangely since his blood
transfusion? Amano's fears for humanity increase Myunhi Hausen Jr., an ambitious megalomaniac (and son of a Nazi diabolist) starts interfering. A control freak of the first order Myunhi begins to take more than a cursory interest in Takeaki. As the film reaches his horrifying climax the fate of the world in precariously balanced. Will Myunhi succeed in his evil manipulation of Takeaki? Will the three worlds ever be united into The Land of Eternity?
