  Anime Reviews: Knights of Ramune
With his fleet of powerful ships and his stable of badly abused but phenomenally endowed woman warriors, he seems unstoppable--and Parfait and Cacao, though appalled by his actions, may be constrained to serve him, according to the laws of their odd sect.
On the surface, Knights of Ramune is a bright shiny bouncy eye-candy piece.
Like the monumental space battle where an entire planet's defense system is demolished by Ramunes' mecha fleet (captained by a woman with enormous, nearly-bare breasts).

According to some sources, marble playing in Japan began when children began removing the marbles from the Ramune bottles in order to play marble-games shortly after the introduction of the bottles in 1876.

Although Ramune is a misogynistic creep with a fleet of women (flesh and cybernetic) who inexplicably do his bidding, it's pretty clear that he's no match for the power of the Virgins, who can create a barrier of holy light to protect themselves from their enemies and from the hazards of outer space.
