Ragnarok City can be quite enjoyable when approached with the right expectations. However, its medium alone can easily give one the wrong expectations. Thing is, Ragnarok City is only technically a manga. It should be rather seen as an artbook.
Its appeal certainly doesn't lie in its story. Because it doesn't have any. It's also not in the personality of the characters, since there's not much to them. There's quite a bit of world-building, but it's not much due to the its shortness. And because of its lack of story, it doesn't actually do much with it either.
Being a Satoshi Urushihara work, it's obvious where its
...
appeal is and its stronger here than in many other works he's involved in: The girls, the breasts, all the lewd imagery. Thanks to the setting's fashion, there's barely a page that doesn't prominently shows the girl's naked breasts, as well as the "carpet" between their legs, in all their glory.
And glorious it is. Urushihara's art is of usual high quality, making the showcase of beautiful naked girls never boring. There are also some even lewder bits, showing two characters having lesbian sex (sadly, only single pictures, no longer scenes). While they're separate from the main "story", there's some clear attraction between them there too.
And all of that in full color, making the art shine especially well, as well as making it feel all the more like an artbook. This is topped off by a yuri-heavy gallery at the very end. And thanks to its overall short length, it never overstays its welcome.
If you want a story, then you should stay clear of this. Stories in Urushihara mangas are never great, but this one doesn't even have one in the first place. If you want some nice and lewd artwork of beautiful girls (especially if you enjoy Urushihara's style in general), then you can't go wrong with Ragnarok City.

JK Bitch ni Shiboraretai is a hentai anime, based on a CG set by the artist Joy Ride. It is focused on five high school girls, who are all total sluts (indeed, the title translates to "I wanna be jacked off by a high school slut", a very apt one). With a premise like that you don't even need that barest minimum of story to justify the sex and JK Bitch follows suit. The MC comes across the individual girls, they want his dick, that's all the set-up these two 15-minute fuckfests have.
And this really works in its favor. JK Bitch promises sluts and doesn't
...
fail to deliver. Each of the five girls coerces the MC to sex immediately when they appear and offer no resistance when he becomes active himself. Despite that, they are a rather diverse bunch (aside from their breast sizes, which are always huge) and all are endearing in their own way. Even the way their sluttiness manifests is somewhat different. That also extends to their appearances. While they tend to conform the "gyaru" archetype (especially the blond and tanned Kuroko), each looks very different. That keeps things consistent, without being too same-y. Altogether, the different characters manage to keep things fresh during the 30-minutes of pure sex.
And the sex doesn't disappoint. The actions are pretty vanilla, handjobs, blowjobs, a titjob and lots of vaginal sex and of course, the girls downright shower in semen. But it's all very well executed and animated, even repeated acts don't feel quite the same as before and therefore never get boring. This is also thanks to the characters, whose attractive designs are well implemented in the anime. The sound adds to it. While the character voices might not be to everyone's taste, I found them all very appealing and the sound effects really underscores the sex scenes.
The short length of the anime, while potentially disappointing, ensures that it never gets too repetitive.
JK Bitch is a very erotic anime that near-flawlessly succeeds in what it sets out to do and is recommended to everyone who wants hentai that's sweet and simple, but highly effective.

KonoSuba is a full-blown fantasy comedy, that parodies RPGs and the "Isekai" genre that Sword Art Online popularized. It's pretty much purely non-serious, doesn't have much of an overall story (there is one, but it never goes anywhere) and most episodes are rather self-contained. But what it lacks in epic adventures, it more than enough makes it up with its great humor.
The main reason for that is its cast of likeable, quirky characters. They're not the most sympathetic bunch, the male main character is selfish, rude and quite perverted. His main companion is not much better, mainly distinguished by a more positive disposition. An over-specialized,
...
to the point of near uselessness, mage and a fighter, that is incapable of hitting anything but is way too enthusiastic in her role as a tank, top off the adventurer party that could barely be any more ineffective. Most of the humor comes from their internal conflict and lack of ability that makes it tricky to fulfill quests. And even when they manage to succeed, despite themselves, they're not always better off afterwards.
The voice actors have a done particularly great job in bringing the characters to life. Particularly the voices of the four main characters are near-perfect and really embody them very well to the point it's hard to imagine them with any other ones. The music is done well too, although teh ending song, beautiful as it is, does not fit the series very well.
Being DEEN work, the visuals have quite a share of hiccups, but its not immediately noticeable and overall it looks really good. Some things are particularly well-done and a real pleasure to look at, like Megumin's ever-beloved explosion spell (especially good, since its lengthy and you'll see it relatively often).
Something that's not apparent at first is that KonoSuba is quite a bit raunchy. It's normally not too much, but there are several noticeable instances of fanservice (particularly bouncing breasts) and lewd humor, which might already turn off some people. One episode goes way, way farther, though, to the point of turning into an ecchi. People who dislike such anime are highly unlikely to enjoy that episode (of course, those who like such things will have probably even more fun with it).
It's not an understatement to say that KonoSuba is one of the best comedy anime I've ever seen. While it arguably doesn't do anything special, it does it extremely well. It doesn't take itself or anything serious and doesn't hold back when it sees an opportunity for a joke. The setup and parodistic elements make it particularly interesting for fans of MMORPGs, but it's humor is broad enough to be also interesting for anyone else.

The Bikini Warriors TV series is full fanservice and humor, the special BD episode racks up the former but lowers the latter. The OVA is pretty much between the two.
Like the Special, it features unhidden nipples and quite a lot of them. Especially thanks to the second episode, they probably occupy the majority of frames. That are also two borderline-hentai sex scenes, but they're extremely short and only present in the first episode.
However, like in the Special, the humor has much lower presence here. For one, it mostly lacks the RPG parody present in the main series. Instead it largely relies on lewd humor (admittedly,
...
not unfitting), mostly in the "Emperor's New Clothes"-like setup of the second episode.
The Bikini Warriors OVA is a nice little thing, if you want to see the characters in their "uncensored" glory and the Special wasn't enough. As such, it's best to watch it after the main series, as an extra, just like said Special. Sadly, while the OVA is amusing enough on its own, the humor of the main series is still sorely missed.

Kill la Kill is a very over-the-top mix of action, comedy and ecchi. That, however, means that it relies heavily on the viewer liking comically, downright nonsensically, exaggerated stuff like that. If you don't, it's unlikely that you'll enjoy KLK much. It's often compared to Gurren Lagann, which is pretty appropriate since it practically IS Gurren Lagann. If you like that show, you'll probably also like KLK and vice-versa.
Its main draw are probably the visuals. They tend to be quite exaggerated, often comical and very dynamic. A particular trait are the often limited animations, which tend to be used to good (mostly comedic) effect. Overall,
...
the visuals are, despite and because their "flaws", quite pleasant to look at. Or, if you don't like that particular style, an awful chaotic mess.
The main character, Ryuko Matoi, is... a main character. She's pretty typical for that kind of show: Brash, hot-blooded, often over-confident but ultimately good-natured. She fits perfectly, but is so standard that some might find her pretty bland. Other characters are more out there and nearly everyone brings their own brand of craziness with them. They're very varied, both in design and personality, nearly none of them are boring and one can easily take a shine to certain characters. Or utterly loathe their guts. Particularly the latter happens easily with the villains, which are appropriately nasty. Some might even find them too bad. There's very little moral ambiguity with them, particularly the main villain lacks any redeeming qualities or understandable motivations. There is, however, lots of grayness among many non-villainous characters and its very questionable how justified their actions are.
The story is pretty simple, but not to its detriment. It begins rather low, with a quest for revenge and answers. It's the latter that kick off the main plot, where the stakes are raised MUCH higher than initially thought. However, that happens pretty late in the series and as a result, the story feels pretty drawn-out until then. The entertaining craziness of the show keeps it from feeling like it should have half the length than it actually has, but it still seems like it goes on for too long. It gets better than the actually plot starts, but only for the final battle to feel overly lengthy again. It gets surprisingly serious at times, especially towards the end, which might feel a bit jarring. There's also one part, where it creates drama seemingly solely for the purpose of drama itself and to pad out the story, without it really making much sense.
The sound is pretty good and the music really enhances the action scenes, despite being rather repetitive. On the other hand, it's not very amazing and not much to write home about. But it does its job very well.
Something that might really turn off quite some people is the ecchi elements. After all, the main character's outfit constantly changes into a very skimpy look in battles (and that's just the beginning). Some people, who like KLK but hate fanservice and can't handle the fact that something they like might have lots of it, deny that it's ecchi at all, which is nonsense. Even with the "justification" for the nudity in mind, there are a lots of gratuitous shots that emphasize breasts and such for no particularly reason (aside from the obvious). Some people might find solace in the fact that the nudity isn't limited to female characters. Particularly late in series, male characters are constantly naked too. Of course, some others might find that even worse.
Overall, Kill la Kill is a very entertaining series that particularly appeals to fans of a over-the-top action, especially if they also like a good dose of naked skin with it. It's really not suited for people who don't like things like this, who'd probably criticize it for being way too stupid.
In compassion with its predecessor, I have to say that Gurren Lagann is ultimately the better anime, particularly in plot, action and soundtrack. Kill la Kill does have the better ending, though.

3Ping Lovers is the adaption of a fantasy VN with a typical "save the world" plot. However, it doesn't really do anything with it and the story is merely touched upon and never resolved. It's just as well, as it couldn't really do that in the short time anyway. Instead, it focuses solely on the sex with the excuse that it makes the heroines more powerful (as is not unpopular in fantasy hentai).
There are basically two sex scenes. The first one is with two of the six girls. It is pretty well done, features several "actions" and has a good length. In itself, it would
...
already make for a worthwhile shorter hentai.
However, the main feature is the second one, where the main character magically gets two clones, with each taking two girls. I thought this could make it worse than the first one, as less time is devoted for each "couple", but that didn't really happen. Each gets a good amount of screen time and are as well-done as the first scene. It switches rather fluently between the three groups, making it not as jarring as it could have been and it really feels like a single sex scene with lots of characters, instead of three smaller ones.
The six girls are all quite well-designed and (mostly) pretty diverse. More variation in breasts sizes would have been nice, though. Except for one character, pretty much all of them are very busty.
There are lots of "internal shots", with a few X-Ray ones, which might not be everyone's cup of tea. I found it pretty alright, though.
The animation is rather standard. At times, it felt a bit too repetitive and some animations could have used more frames. Overall, it does it's job well, though.
I would have liked to see more than a single episode. It's rather standard, but pretty well-done and that fantasy theme is always nice. However, it uses the short amount of time it has well, making it a very enjoyable hentai anime.

Futabu is back with two slightly longer episodes, but with the same that the first one brought: A fun futanari sex romp.
It is indeed more of the same and whether you like it mostly depends on whether you liked the first part. That doesn't mean that it doesn't mix things up a bit. For one, both episodes focus on a new character, one rather contrary from the other. The first one has a mature Japanese, always seen in kimono (except when she's naked, of course), while the second features a dark-skinned, technologically-inclined foreign student. Both are futas themselves, leaving Akane as the sole non-futa (and
...
even that gets played with).
While the first episode is rather standard, although is has semblance of a more serious plot and hot springs are always nice, it is the second one, where things get different. It features a rather forced sex competition between the club and the foreign girl, a few strange gadgets to support it and some rather odd sex acts (especially the one featuring the foreign girl's foreskin). Not everything might be everyone's taste (I for one didn't care much for Akane's "toy"), but it sure manages to set itself apart quite a bit.
Visuals and sound are the same as the first one, for better or worse. Overall good, but nothing outstanding.
Overall, it's a good successor to the first Futabu, that features everything that made it fun without being too same-y.

Futabu (or "Futa Club"), an adaptation of a manga by Bosshi, delivers exactly what it's name promises: An entire club of girls with dicks (as well as a "token normal girl"). Naturally, the sex heavily involves their extra appendages, so this hentai is purely for futanari lovers. And those are catered to well, with a diverse cast of pretty futas with varying body, breast and, of course, dick sizes (with the loli having the biggest one). Naturally, characterization is light, but all characters are rather endearing.
As a typical story-less sex romp, it's mostly a sequence of sex scenes, in which the futas do it with
...
the "normal" girl and each other. These leave nothing to be desired (unless you want something that doesn't involve girl dicks) and are realized very well, with good (but not amazing( animation. Bosshi's character designs are also converted well (although they don't look quite as good as in the manga) and all the girls, and their "features" such as their breasts, are nice to look at.
Sadly, with all those dicks (especially a particularly huge one) flailing around, the obligatory censorship is more visible and therefore more annoying. Especially since the genitals appear to be drawn well too (as well as one can make out under the pixelation).
The sound is pretty good, with the wet sounds during the sex and the moans of the girls adding quite something erotic to it. Music is just there and not very notable.
Overall, it's a great vanilla-ish hentai for futanari fans. People who don't share that taste won't find much here, though.

This is a bonus episode of the BD release of Bikini Warriors. As such, it is rather... different than the normal episodes.
Bikini Warriors is normally made up of two things: Fanservice and RPG parody. But this episode does away with the latter, but does ramp up the former to ludicrous (moreso than BW usually does) levels. Not only does it finally shows nipples, it generally goes as far as it could, without becoming outright hentai. As in, it shows pretty graphic girl-on-girl sex, just short of outright showing genitals.
And that's it, basically. There are no RPG tropes parodied and it's generally lacking in jokes, missing
...
a crucial aspect of the series itself.
With the right expectations, this bonus episode can be rather enjoyable. Despite having the same length as a normal episode, it should be rather seen a a little bonus. But if you expect something more like the regular series, you're in for disappointment.

Bikini Warriors delivers exactly what it seems to deliver. Both in the obvious and not so obvious.
First is the fanservice. Yes, every episode is full of it. It largely focuses on the breasts and butts of the heroines (?), the former bounce at every opportunity and images of them in lewd poses are very common. If you like such things, this anime already has a lot to offer to you. If you don't care for it, you at least need a very high tolerance for such things.
But the second aspect is the RPG parody. And I found myself enjoying that a lot more. Kleptomanic
...
heroes, lack of support from kings that sent you on quests and even player behavior, like selling potentially crucial healing items, are poked fun at and every fan of (J)RPGs will find familiar situations. If you like parodies like that, that aspect alone could make Bikini Warriors worth watching (if you have the aforementioned fanservice tolerance).
However, aside from these two points, this anime doesn't really offer anything else. There's no actual story and every of the few plot elements are left pretty much open. And as with many RPG parodies, the main characters tend to act morally questionable and are pretty selfish. It's not a deal-breaker, as it's pure comedy and not meant to be taken seriously at all (and who would that expect from an anime called "Bikini Warriors"?).
Its biggest strength is arguably its short length. It doesn't offer much, but with every episode just lasting 4 minutes, it doesn't overstay its welcome (and honestly, I'd probably have never finished it, if it were much longer).
Overall, if you dislike fanservice, it's better to avoid it. There's so much of it, it's impossible to ignore it. If you like RPG parodies, it could be worth taking a peek. If you like both, then this could might be very well-worth your time, especially since it doesn't take much of it.
