More DescriptionMari Kato, 16, just wants what any other girl her age wants: a driver's license. Too bad a family curse, passed on by her Japanese-born Buddhist dad, who claims to be thousands of years old, transforms Mari into an Oni demon every time she feels frustrated... which is just about every time she gets behind the wheel and starts hiccupping. When her geologist mom moves their vegan-lifestyle-obsessed family to Oregon and takes a job at the local mine, Mari stumbles upon the gates to Hell and an evil cheerleader demon determined to steal Mari's first boyfriend, Juan. Suddenly, Mari's not so concerned about getting the keys to the Honda when saving the world means saving her boyfriend - but only if she can find the courage to reveal her demon self to him.
