Minna Agechau♡

I read that this was going to be Central Park Media (US Manga Corps) first release and I remembered seeing it in the Diamond Catalog for comic shops way back in the day. It got pulled due to media outrage about this new animated style of Japanese pornography.

After watching it I can say, don't expect it to be the porn it was accused of being, it's actually like an 80s Lum episode with a few not sexy sex scenes added and the sexual humor ramped up a few notches. That said, it's pretty funny and the characters are madcap, over the top and a ... lot of fun in a way that exemplifies that specific 80s style. I watched it for its history but ended up enjoying it more than expected, there's a good number of laughs and I personally love 80s anime, so the art and animation work for me.

Edited to add: I'm actually going to up my score to an 8, because there's a scene in here (it starts inside a tank) that I'm still laughing about half a day later, and few comedies ever crack me up that much. The humor is crude, but dang it really is funny!

My guy got the drip the pink dress shirt under the white sweater and the blue jeans with red shoes! ouuu the drip. the guy jerks off on his face and the girl watches him from another apartment if that sounds hot.. you're kinky. This is perfect to watch for No Nut November so you can test how much you won't nut while watching this. I would have ended the review there and let you wacth the rest but I have to write more so it gives off a 90's vibe to me even though its an 80's movie so if you can for an ... 80's vibe there are more anime that are more 80's than this.

Minna Agechau♡ falls under the trope of the loser male protagonist meeting a girl who changes his life—but this time, the absurdity is cranked up to the max. The OVA involves an ecchi joke or a hardcore scene, often involving weird fetishes, practically every minute. That's all there really is to the whole 45 minute experience and it gets old fast.

The characters start out being unlikeable and stupid and end being unlikeable and stupid. No development, no fleshing out, they're just there to make the ecchi scenes happen and nothing more. The jokes fail to land, relying heavily on shock value from the weird ... fetishes to elicit a reaction rather than crafting funny and endearing characters who find themselves in silly ecchi situations.

There are a few well-painted retro-style backgrounds and some well-directed aesthetic scenes, but those elements alone aren't worth watching for. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone, even within the ecchi comedy genre, there's far better available.

Final Scorings:
Animation: 5/10 (Simplified retro aesthetic)
Sound: 5/10 (Average)
Story: 1/10 (Ecchi comedy)
Characters: 2/10 (Over the top caricatures)
Value: 3/10 (First J.C Staff OVA)
Enjoyment: 2/10 (Over the top but lacking substance)
Overall: 3/10
