Anime adaptation based on the popular game from Japan about a young girl named Yuna Kagurazaka who wins the interstellar Galaxy Fraulein contest to become the Guardian of the Light.
Backstory
A beauty contest is staged in present-day Tokyo with ulterior motives-as with Battle Athletes, it is really a front for choosing a champion to save the world. Yuna, the blond winner, is informed that, long ago, the Queen of Light fought the Queen of Darkness and lost the battle. All the remaining goodness of Light was concentrated in one of the good android survivors, Elna, whose duty it was to carry the Light forward for the next battle. As Elna's successor, Yuna has three android doubles for use on land, sea, and air, as well as a super-trans-formation ability that allows them to turn into the mighty El-Line robot.Based on a 1992 game for the PC Engine, the combination of giant war machines and cloyingly cute girls was resurrected for GFY: Fairy of Darkness (Ginga Ojosama Densetsu Yuna: Shinkai no Fairy; 1996, released in the U.S. as GFY Returns), in which the evil Princess Mirage spreads false rumors that Yuna is fighting on the wrong side, sending the mysterious Fraulein D to ravage a few cities in Yuna's name just to make sure that GP Officer Misaki will find lots of incriminating evidence. Yuna and her orally fixated friend Yuri must then fight off "D" and several of Mirage's minions. Yuna turns one of the three evil Apparition Sisters to the side of good by introducing her to the joys of shopping, and then the stage is set for a final, noisy showdown. Sold to the Japanese as "the last word in girls' anime," though thankfully that was a complete lie.
