Kunoichi no Ichi!
(Manga)
add
Lewd but not sexy - the nudity is cheap and often like a hentai without much setup. One panel there's nothing, next panel it's kunoichi tied up, clothes tattered and torn - only for the situation to be resolved in the subsequent panel. Hope you like rope bondage - it's by far the most used fetish manga, instead of you know - something that involves kunoichi. The rampant but delicately drawn lewdness is a bit more pervasive than standard fan service and often grinds the plot to a halt/replaces the plot that is severely lacking in action. A plot that is severely lacking in action.

Itoko no Oneechan ni Amaechau?
(Manga)
add
You're reading this to gawk at some huge anime tiddies in the context of the inherit tension of familial taboo - this gets you some of that. The booba looks great despite the enormity and the manga finds multiple ways to show them off. Oddly, the artists may not have a grip on drawing ass - the very few shots you see of cheek reveal an unnatural looking lift with not enough thigh to offset. Each chapter is a scenario with some tension, even if they're some of the most vanilla scenarios you can imagine - studying, massaging, etc. Each scenario almost always involves just

Change 123
(Manga)
add
A flashy, sexy harem shonen: plenty of pretty, stylish girls with fantastic legs and well-shaped and dynamic oppai. Distinctions among the numerous ladies stem from the look of their faces and expressions - not just their clothes, or in the case of switching to Mikuru, the size/emphasis of the boobs. The liberal use of ignoring panel boundaries facilities beautiful, and often contorting (strategically so) bodies fighting across pages of the manga. It is a little Buck Zumhofe of sexualizing the clearly young-coded Ginga and the sleepy, Orihime-esque Izuru is a bit forgettable to look at. It's also a bit head-scratching they don't go all tits-out

Kotetsu no Daibouken
(Anime)
add
Don't dwell on what could've been a successful anime series but appreciate what you had with this two part OVA: some rather memorable character designs, both necessary (Kagari - the big tiddy goth gf antagonist) and unnecessary nudity, decent action, a teeth clenching cringey romance involving a young teen and an adult, and a skull-scratching conclusion to the final bout in the second episode. No doubt, had the series gone longer, Miho would've garnered the screen time the first episode promised but perhaps we would've been subject to the baffling romance between Linn and the young adult - enough interesting material could've been had with

The ol hardboiled private eye male fantasy where protagonist smokes like a chimney, fucks like a champ, punches like a brute, sports coats like Columbo, overcomes drug addictions and is cool as cat in the face of the city's never-ending supply of crooks and inept police force. Paris serves as an awesome background for this manga, with scene-setting panels really capturing the Parisian flair and sprawl. Dingo's heavy eyebrows and goofy grin - pretty cool - the rest of the generic Parisians, especially the look-alike women who just have sex and nothing else - not so cool. Even if there were other memorable character designs,

Tenshi no Tamago
(Anime)
add
It's funny to read contemporary critics panning this movie for being difficult to get - there's no need for multi-page high school essays or multi-hour YouTube theory videos to enjoy a plot-light, setup-heavy dystopian mood. For something with little plot, it's animation, mood, and characters better excel and this movie achieves most of them. The mix of World War II Europe, HR Giger, and lifeless forested scapes a bleak and desolate world in an alternative timeline where something catastrophic has occurred to the world (maybe ours, maybe not). It's a tone not too dissimilar from other desolate dystopian futures. The animation has moments to shine

Shamanic Princess
(Anime)
add
Beauty and animation are the core of this anime- the animation quality is abundant throughout the entirety of the OVA though extra special moments such as the festival in the second episode or many of the fight scenes in the latter half do standout. The painted backgrounds cannot be praised enough for their variety, gravity, and overall artistic appeal. It feels like half the OVA is panning of the background and that's definitely not a detriment. The character designs are elegant and move with grace during intense scenes. Tiara makes for a magnificent canvas for trying out various poses (greatly helped with her Barbie-like

Suna no Bara: Yuki no Mokushiroku
(Anime)
add
A fantastic action OVA that absolutely needs a sequel or at least needed to last longer. The animation strikes a balance of lanky and beautiful shojo characters with muscular guns and action all set to a rad soundtrack. The opening shoot out is awesome but Marie and her crew get enough character development in so they're not faceless. The casts leans more beauty than sexy and thats for the better so the OVA isn't mired in fan service. The plot is very James Bond but thats not a bad thing as its easy to follow.
There is a want for a final shootout to cap ...

Summer Wars
(Anime)
add
A showcase animation in animation and heart. The depiction of real life is standard fare but the virtual world of OZ pops with striking avatar designs (at least two of them) and many moving bodies all pasted on a white background. Summer Wars recalls War Games but with a greater emphasis on strength through family. The family is mostly a joy to watch with none of them grating which helps maintain the movie's pace. The scope of the movie starts fairly small befitting the rural setting but quickly blows up to a ridiculous extent which is a bit of a shame because the concept of

Hand Maid Mai
(Anime)
add
The only watchable episode previewed a horny series with humor, an MC easy to cheer for, an intriguing concept of a futuristic organization sending androids into the past to solve seemingly trivial problems of a common person, and the timeless main conflict between the MC and the likely love interest. The OVA's animation isn't mind-blowing but character designs are distinct enough, the facial expressions can be goofy enough to be comedic, and the show does a great job portraying the lifeless eyes of the cyberdolls.
All of this is for naught though as there's only one episode. I wouldn't expect anything life-changing but I would ... |
