Relive the excitement and emotional moments once more.

My name is Ryo Saeba, also known as City Hunter. In this line of work, I’m a well-known professional “sweeper.” I take on all kinds of jobs, from protecting beautiful women to assassinations. In other words, I’m a cleaner who gets rid of the scum of the city. That means I live a life constantly on the edge. My partner, Kaori, is the younger sister of my deceased best friend, but she never brings in any decent jobs.

New Features

  • Multi-language support for fans worldwide:
  • Supported languages: Japanese, English, French (including the Nicky Larson version), German, Italian, Spanish, Korean, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese
