A man wronged sets foot on the path of vengeance. His method: molestation. His tools: vibrating eggs, dildos, restraints, and his own sword of justice. Home to classic one-liners such as "I'm going to pollute your uterus!", The Count of Monte Cristo meets Pervs on a Train in this surprisingly great chikan hentai.
Animation & Sound - 7/8
The animation here is nothing you haven't seen before, but pretty good either way. Most importantly, attention is paid to the private parts and the appropriate amount of detail is added. To me this sets this show a couple notches above your standard hentai that simply draws a slit
...
and a few squiggles and then calls it a day.
The music is fairly simple but well done. There is minimal background music but this allows for the sound effects and the voice acting to shine. The sound effects are great in all their sloppy and gooey glory, but I was amazed at the quality in voice talent here. Granted a hentai isn't the best showcase for up and coming (no pun intended) talent, but the male lead here really got into his role. Sometimes it's the small things like this that can make a show immensely more enjoyable.
Character - 7
I found the protagonist in this show to be the best of his kind that I've seen so far. He took all the hallmarks of a great lecherous chikan and combined them with a legitimate backstory and human element. This man had a purpose and you could feel it from his gaze and voice. His chikan smirk and sideways glance were second to none.
The 'victims' here are yesterdays villains and take the form of a lawyer, young girl, doting elder sister, and the somewhat spicy middle sister who dislikes how the youngest is constantly doted upon, but still cares for her in her own way. These characters gave a pretty nice variety and served their roles in the show well.
Story - 8
The chikan elements of this show and the revenge plot by themselves are pretty standard fare, but the combination the two provided was something I haven't seen before. While many hentai only proffer enough plot to get the sex started, Hissatsu Chikan Nin turned this approach on it's head and used sex as the method to tell the story. While many other chikan shows involve molestation as the end point in a character's journey, here it was used as a means to accomplish a goal only. Once the objective was accomplished, Koichi gave his heartfelt thanks to his chikan sensei and then gave the impression that he would proceed with his life. This ending scene made me LOL on one hand but on the other it was a very well done and powerful scene.
Enjoyment - 10
This was a fantastic show and the best train chikan hentai I've seen thus far. Using train molestation as atonement for a wrongdoing is a bit different from the standard degradation and also different from the "women ride trains because they want to be molested" line that many shows seem to take. I wholeheartedly recommend this show not only to chikan enthusiasts, but to anyone looking for a great hentai with a fairly legitimate plot.

If you are a fan of 90s anime, then I'd recommend taking a look at Darkside Blues. If you haven't seen many anime from this time period, then this is a fairly good example of the visual styles of the 90s. However, most people will probably find the story somewhat mediocre and maybe even confusing.
Darkside Blues is a nice little gem from the 90s based on a manga by Hideyuki Kikucho who is one of the most respected horror writers in Japan. Often called the Stephen King of Japan, many of Hideyuki's novels have been adapted to anime such as Vampire Hunter D, Wicked City,
...
and Demon City Shinjuku.
Animation - 8
I'll go ahead and draw attention to the elephant in the room: this is an old anime. The art and animation styles likewise reflect the 90s. Whether you enjoy 90s style or not is your choice, but compared to other works of the time, Darkside Blues fares very well. The art and animation themselves are slightly above average, but I don't think many people can deny the style this show brings to the table. While there's nothing too progressive as far as the direction or choreography at work here, I still can't help but be impressed at how easy everything seems. By this I mean that it seems the style just flows off the screen naturally and can be seen in the fluid movements of the characters in many scenes. While there are many action sequences, they aren't so much edge-of-your seat and jaw dropping as they are seamless and fluid which is very pleasing to the eye.
Sound - 9
While maybe a handful of people out there won't like the music here, I think the sound is perfectly done. The melancholy music does a great job setting the mood and enhances the feel of Kabuki-cho as a city.
The Japanese voice actors do a good job and are obviously cast well for their roles. Natsuki Sakan is a great fit as Darkside and this is one of those times when a female voice actor really does seem more appropriate for a male character.
Story - 8
Set sometime in the future, Darkside Blues depicts a world almost completely owned by the Persona Corporation. One of the few free areas is the slums of Kabuki-cho, often called the dark side of Tokyo. There are various 'enhanced' humans running around who boast supernatural powers, though it's never explained whether this is actually magic or achieved with technology. Taking place in the future, there is quite a bit of technology around in the form of watches that fire lasers, robotic attack drones, and even a massive quantum cannon.
Something interesting I noticed was how similar this movie is to the Clint Eastwood movie Pale Rider (which was in turn a retelling of the classic western Shane). The reason I say they are similar is that, just like Pale Rider, Darkside Blues follows a small group of people (Messiah) whom are resisting oppression at the hands of a wealthy group (Persona Corporation) and then inserts a mysterious stranger (Darkside) who has a score to settle. While Darkside may seem to be the main character, the movie really seems to focus more on the effect his presence has on the members of Messiah.
Unfortunately, the movie seems like a small part of a whole that the viewer is never fully aware of and some things are left unexplained. Despite that, the sub-plot involving the escape of an Anti-Persona resistance fighter is covered well. The main confusion involves the backstories of many characters.
Character - 7
There are a lot of good things here, unfortunately most of the characters are undeveloped with only hints given regarding their past. The only characters really explored are the resistance fighter Tatsuya and Selia, an acquaintance of the Messiah members.
Darkside himself is almost a walking cheat code as time and time again various Persona assassins run across him only to find their attacks have no effect. Darkside only bothers to take his hands from his pockets on a couple of occasions and really he never seems worried no matter what attacks are being thrown at him. Darkside's past is only ambiguously explained, but really his character is in the movie to bring about change in others.
Through a process he calls 'renewal', he enables various characters to overcome hurdles formed when they were emotionally scarred in the past. Though for some people, this renewal simply brings about their death.
Enjoyment - 9
I personally love 90s anime and Darkside Blues is a great one. This show walks a fine line of psychological and action so there is substance to chew on mentally, or if you just wanna sit back then there's plenty of action as well. While I wouldn't call this an action anime, I don't think more than 5 minutes ever go by before the next altercation starts.

As many of you have probably seen from things such as Death Panda, Uziga Waita isn't against injecting a little romance into his works along with healthy doses of black humor. Unfortunately, most people have an aversion to the nudity and gore in such works and will instantly dismiss them, but for those of you willing to brave the waters here, you might find a story that's actually somewhat touching.
Among guro circles, Uziga Waita is easily head and shoulders above most with regard to his art and drawing style. While You After the Rain has a pretty simplistic style lacking in polish compared to Death
...
Panda, I think it works well considering one shots usually benefit from a straight-forward and no nonsense approach. When a story is only a dozen or so pages, there's really no reason to waste too much space.
This story is fairly simple: it's about a man (possibly the last) living in a city full of zombies. He keeps his girlfriend chained in his apartment and cares for her even though she too has succumbed to necrosis. As is the case with most good zombie stories, the zombies aren't the point of the story, they are the method with which the story is told.
It's in this situation of living with his zombiefied girlfriend that the protagonist is able to realize and correct his past mistakes. When you look past the guro surface of this manga, there's actually a really well-done romantic short waiting to be discovered. Personally, I was kinda touched by the flashback to the ice cream shop and felt satisfied with the progress made in such a short time.
Then again maybe I'm just a depraved psycho who loves guro. I'll leave it up to you.

Don't let the looks fool you, this is no simple children's show. While the setup is the same, this show has very mature humor and even a decent amount of death and gore. Anyone who doesn't mind somewhat dated animation and dark humor should be in for a real treat with this series...and it only takes about 30 min to watch the entire thing.
Animation - 7
The art is pretty old fashioned as well as simplistic since it's portrayed similar to a children's show, but I think it adds to the appeal. The simplistic style lets the viewer take in everything that's happening on the screen
...
easily, allowing for maximum enjoyment of the content. When comparing this animation to a show like Chi's Sweet Home, there is quite a bit of difference so I felt a 7 was justified.
Sound - 10
The sound is approached in a very simplistic way similar to the animation. The tunes are very simple, yet catchy and the sound effects combined with the background music does an amazing job of capturing the atmosphere and mood at the moment.
The voice actors are really amazing in this show. Nyako's voice is just spot on to how I would expect a female adolescent cat to sound and I love the feline accent she gives to words like nani by saying nyani. While her little brother Nyatta doesn't actually speak much, he is a very prominent member of the brother/sister tag team and constantly chimes in with a timely "nyaa" to show his agreement with Nyako. All of the voice actors are really dead on and capture the character whether it be a bum dying in the street, a wacky old scientist, or a matronly mother. I gave a 10 for sound because honestly I can't imagine any part of it being done better.
Character - 10
While there really isn't any character growth to speak of, I don't consider this a negative since the show revolves around the interaction of a multitude of unique characters in short episodes. Nyako and Nyatta are very enjoyable to watch as a team. The duo is very curious which leads them into various situations which often become more and more wacky due to Nyako's easygoing nature and often very disastrous due to her child-like innocence. The father never actually says a word in the series, but his actions speak louder than words and provide many moments of entertainment. The same goes for Nyako & Nyatta's mother who pulls off an aloof nature combined with the natural desire to supervise her children. She is very accepting when a woman throws dumplings in her face, but quick to admonish her children for giving pudding to a pig.
Story - 8
This series is comprised of several short episodes, each about a minute long. While there is no overarching plot, each individual episode is amazing considering how much is stuffed into it. Each episode focuses on Nyako and Nyatta and their experiences such as going to a haunted house, hunting with their dad, or stealing a garbage truck. Often these episodes show what happens when children apply the lessons they learn to the real world often with devastating consequences such as when little Nyatta believes the etiquette for taking a bath also applies when someone is drowning in a lake.
Enjoyment - 10
This show really appealed to me and its dark humor had a smile plastered across my face for the duration. The fast pacing of each episode means that there is basically no excess to be found, the fat has been trimmed and what's left is an ingenious combination of mature and dark humor that is only made more hilarious by the child-like presentation.

I initially started watching this show as part of my train chikan project. I don't remember how I found out about the train scene, but I did and here I am writing a review. OK just to preface: this show is basically comprised of short (4min) scenarios involving Keisuke and one of his sisters (not blood related) engaged in various lewd behaviors. There is a focus on big breasts with each girl having huge watermelon-sized tits, as well as pretty prevalent themes such as public sex, defloration, and facials. Other fetishes also make appearances such as lactation, anal, bdsm,soapy massage, train groping, and then something
...
very off the wall that I won't spoil for you since I got a kick out of it lol. For those interested in my response to the train chikan scene, I'll put that at the end of the review.
Animation and Sound- 7
I don't have any complaints since pretty much everything looked and sounded good, but nothing too special. Though there was a decent variety in the music since the scenes took place in numerous locations ranging from an office building to a car to a fast food restaurant.
Character - 7
While the characters themselves didn't really have too much depth in and of themselves, the scenery chosen for their episode sets each of the 10 sisters apart from one another. There's really quite the variety: a masochistic maid, a pining office worker, and a dutiful kendo girl just to name a few. As far as protagonists go, Keisuke isn't too bad either. He seems to change his personality to suit whatever sister he's seducing at the moment so we see him acting the role of the confused youth pulled into an older woman's clutches and then minutes later we see him in the dominant position.
Story - 7
As mentioned earlier, this show is basically composed of 10 short scenarios involving Keisuke with one of his sisters. Many of these shorts have the shallowest pretext you'll see ever since back in the day when the pizza guy just shows up to deliver "an extra large sausage". There's basically little time wasted in setting up the premise for each scenario and then Keisuke goes to work. Overall I think this approach worked out well since we all know how well plots usually turn out in these kinda shows it kept the focus on the sex and proceeded at a very quick pace. While there is no large plot for the entire story, I don't think it's fair to ignore the effort the makers expended to provide the viewer with 10 very different locales for all the scenes.
Enjoyment - 8
If you are watching this for the plot, well there isn't so much, but it's actually pretty entertaining to just watch the series of short scenes rather than a long overarching plot. For those of you who are watching this for a reason other than the plot, you will likely love this format since you can easily skip from one section to the next simply by moving the time forward 4 minutes if you are looking for something different. If you watch the whole thing through, it is very fast paced with very little downtime in the action. I averaged my enjoyment scores from each scene together and ended up with an 8. In case you wanted to know, my favorite scene is in episode 2 and takes place in the car ^_^
Overall - 7
For any chikan enthusiasts out there: I think the train groping scene here was used more for variety than anything. The train just happened to be a place to have sex with Kotona rather than a comfortable hunting ground for a chikan. While the scene seemed to be lacking in all things that usually make the chikan experience, I always appreciate when niche audiences are given a nod by more mainstream shows so you won't hear me complaining =)

I'll start off by saying this anime is targeted toward a pretty niche audience. It contains a variety of fetishes including drugging, necrophilia, some enema play, bondage, rape, quite a bit of cum, guro, and a bit of inflation as well. While the show does touch on a number of these things, there is a focus on the necrophilia aspect which makes it a must see for those with that inclination. It's definitely at the forefront of its kind in that respect.
Animation
I felt that the animation here was pretty average or slightly above. I wish it could have been better, but at the same
...
time nothing really got on my nerves.
Sound
I was pleasantly surprised by the music. The OP has a somewhat haunting feel to it that really sets the mood considering the show's content. I think the music did a good job adding weight to the story's atmosphere, intensity, and unpleasantness at the proper times.
Characters
There was a decent assortment of characters here: the somewhat average guy who is a bit hesitant about his new job washing corpses, the seemingly detached guy who works too many nightshifts, the nympho doctor, the cheery and somewhat cute romantic interest, the cute and willing nurse, and then another nurse who is a bit of a mixed bag.
I liked following the protagonist in episode 1 as he struggled to get accustomed to his new job and come to terms with the strange things in his head. He devolves to quite the monster in very little time and is pretty enjoyable to watch. Unfortunately none of the characters really left their mark on me, but I feel they served their purpose. The real treat of this anime is the content.
Story
I watched this RAW, so I may have missed out on some of the finer points, but I felt that I could follow things pretty easily. The plot setup is pretty simple: a young guy gets a job cleaning up corpses in a hospital and unwittingly becomes a doctor's guinea pig as she develops a kind of hallucinogenic sex drug. The stage is then set for a sexual rampage with some pretty trippy (and disturbing) hallucinations as icing on the cake.
Enjoyment
I'm a fan of depravity and this anime delivered. I thoroughly enjoyed the hallucinations and the very very disturbing content found during some of the sex scenes. I was also treated to one of the most magnificent anal rape scenes ever. It reminded me of Dragon Ball Z when a guy is screaming and powering up, except this was an orgasm. The music really tipped the balance and I think this scene in particular is among my favorite choreographed sequences in animation right up there with the frog dissection scene from Ichi the Killer: Episode 0. Toward the end of episode 3, I was feeling quite pleased and just a bit unsettled, which is usually the sign of a good show ^_^
For fans of guro and necrophilia this is truly a gem of a hentai and a favorite of mine within the genre.

I really have to split this review into two parts since this 'movie' is really a combo of 2 standalone parts: Tsuukin Kairaku Chikan de Go! and Kaihoku.
Tsuukin Kairaku Chikan de Go!
Art - 7
Nothing spectacular but pretty good and accomplishes what it set out to do.
Sound - 8
The music was a good choice for ambience..kind of a soothing electronica at first, and picking up tempo as the action progressed. The voice acting was pretty enjoyable as well even if the dialogue wasn't anything outstanding. I personally liked the Narrator's lead in lol.
...
Characters - 9
Honestly the protagonist is at the forefront of the genre. His smirk and dismissive "hmmph" are truly world-class and I love how he warms up his hand as he scopes his prey. The other passengers on the train represented a pretty decent variety of people as well: the typical victim, the confident woman with a steely gaze, and the of course the token girl who actually wants to be molested. I actually loved how the protagonist lost interest when he realized her interest..it shows the man is a true sportsman with some class who's looking to truly test his skill. I also loved the old man who had the crappy technique lol.
Story - 9
Tsuukin Kairaku is a great introduction to the Chikan theme. It keeps things traditional without resorting to the typical rationalization and justification of saying all women want to be molested. This show also covered a large amount of ground in 19 minutes by showing 3 different scenarios: success, failure, and the tables turn.
Enjoyment - 9.5
I loved the protagonist, the music, and the overall theme. I'm a traditionalist as far as train molestation goes, meaning it should be molestation period. Trying to say the women actually want to be molested is the typical explanation, but to me it just diminishes the value and intensity of the experience.
Overall - 9
Kaihoku
Art - 7
Same as before
Sound - 8
Pretty good musical score on this as well and it did a pretty good job of using the right music at the right time.
Characters - 5
Pretty weak, there really just wasn't a strong protagonist to carry this episode. I did like how the ringleader woman did the trademark Chikan smirk. She even did that thing where she licked her lips lol. The emphasis in this show was on the victims more than the perpetrator, and this wouldn't have been a bad thing...except they are pretty much whores who gave in easily. There was really no effort expended here by either party and it left me feeling a bit disappointed.
Story - 5
There seemed to be a bit of potential when the teacher was browsing the mysterious website and saw one of her students on it having a gangbang lol. This set up a bit of a mystery feel for this episode as the teacher sought to discover the truth. The story ultimately took a downward turn with the lack of resistance put up. Their pathetic "iiyaa"s seemed more for show than purpose.
Enjoyment - 2
This episode really just didn't appeal to me, but then again I am more of a traditionalist as far as Chikan. If you are more open to different takes on the Chikan theme then you might like this more than I did
Overall - 3
Conclusion - 6
I had to kind of average out the scores here and the enjoyment factor of episode 2 kinda killed it for me.
However, I would highly recommend the first episode for any Chikan enthusiasts out there as it does a very great job introducing the basic concepts ^_^

I've gotta admit that I'm surprised by the amount of enjoyment I had watching this series. Maybe it's because I didn't expect much heading into it, but like I said...very enjoyable.
For any of you who have seen the movie Starship Troopers, there are quite a few similar elements in Blue Gender. Despite our staggering intelligence and development, mankind is getting owned by some huge bug-like monsters. The difference here is that the bugs have already taken over Earth, forcing a small proportion of our population to flee to an orbiting space station. However, all hope is not lost since mankind is initiating an operation to
...
retake our glorious planet. At the heart of this mission are people called "sleepers" and enter our main character.
We follow Kaido Yuji as he wakes up to a post apocalyptic Earth and follow the poor guy as he is dragged along a harrowing gauntlet of bloodshed toward a shuttle to escape into space...and that's really only the prologue. The feeling you get watching Blue Gender is similar to Starship Troopers. The battlefield is chaotic, the enemy seems unstoppable, and soldiers are being ripped apart by the dozens. However, unlike Starship Troopers, this show's storyline goes much deeper, has a much darker feel, and definitely delivers more than just gory action.
Anyone who enjoys raw brutality and violence surely won't be disappointed and there's even a damn good story behind it. I think the only reason I can't give it a 10 has to do with the characters. I personally never really connected with any of them though this is no wonder since the majority of them die without warning. Definitely not for the faint of heart or the easily depressed. Just a fair warning :))
