-> ''"It's time you learned who you picked a fight with!"''
--> --'''Yamamoto Yohko'''

Based on novels by Shoji Takashi, Starship Girl Yamamoto Yohko is a sci-fi anime series featuring female characters. Set in the future, wars are fought differently, unlike how war originally was, which is people killing people for territory. These kinds of wars are competive wars in which no one dies. The main protagonist of the series is Yamamoto Yohko, who is what you call a GamerChick.

The show lasted on two OVA's and a 26 episode TV series [[NoExportForYou which has never seen an English dubbed release in America]], and the light novels are still being published as of 2010.
