   research station where weird experiments have been performed.  But on   
   who?  And for what purpose?  Add in that several of the characters are   
   convinced that they're not getting off the island alive, and are   
   therefore free to indulge, and this too ends up in the "disturbing"   
   category.  But the intense plot and mood make up for it, and someday   
   soon I'll have to get the fourth part, just to see how it ends.

      DEVILMAN:  A Go Nagai series which shows the amalgamation of a   
   seemingly innocent boy with a powerful demon; his purpose, to   
   eliminate other demons from the world.  Occasionally violent, and it   
   wouldn't be a Go Nagai without some sex...  (Manga)   
      
      DOUKYUUSEI: NATSU NO OWARI NI:  see END OF SUMMER   
      
      DRAGON KNIGHT:  Takeru is a medieval sword fighter and incurable   
   lecher who travels the land in search of adventure and a good roll in   
   the hay.  The first OVA is an ecchi comedy, while the second, Another   
   Knight on the Town, is more serious and more obviously hentai (if   
   still softcore).  Based on a series of computer games.  At least two   
   more OVAs based on later editions of the game have been released in   
   Japan, but those have not been licensed for North America.  [Available   
   from Soft Cel Pictures.]   
      
      DRAGON PINK:  The hardcore fantasy RPG-ish adventures of "hero"   
   Santa, man-mountain Bobo, elven mage Pierce and much put-upon catgirl   
   slave Pink.  Three OVAs were made, with the first being pretty cute,   
   the second one shocking and disturbing by comparison and the third   
   quite painful (Pierce and Bobo's scene notwithstanding).  [Available   
   from Soft Cel Pictures.]   
      
      E'L: In the aftermath of a nuclear war, civilization has one last   
   hope in the form of the domed city known as the Megaro Earth Project.   
   Problem is there is somebody called Mr. Gimmick, who leads a terrorist   
   organization called the Black Widow who is trying to end the project.   
   The counter terrorist organization E'l is a part of has a method of   
   dealing with supposed females of the Black Widow:  rape them until they   
   confess or they are mindless.  The few logic glitches are explained in   
   the last 5 minutes, but one feels as if this was a part of a larger   
   series than never went anywhere.  [NuTech]   
      
      THE ELVEN BRIDE:  Loving newlyweds Kenji (a human man) and Milfa   
   Links (a buxom young elf woman) discover that a physical   
   incompatibility is making consummating their marriage impossible, and   
   these two OVAs follow their efforts to find a solution to their   
   problem.  Fantasy, comedy, romance and even a bit of social commentary   
   all come together in this softcore story.  [Available from Soft Cel   
   Pictures.]   
      
      END OF SUMMER (original title DOUKYUUSEI: NATSU NO OWARI NI):   
   Golden-hearted horndog Wataru's big dream is to "make a wonderful   
   memory" with school idol Mai before summer is over.  However,   
   circumstances on her side (shyness, a strict family and a rich snob   
   named Kenji also vying for her affections) and his (several female   
   classmates seeking his advice and sometimes-intensive help) make   
   things difficult for them.  A very nice romantic drama with great   
   character development and steamy softcore scenes, based on the popular   
   dating-simulation computer game.  [Available from Soft Cel Pictures.]   
      
      F^3 [FRANTIC, FRUSTRATED AND FEMALE] (original title NAGEKI NO   
   KENKO YURYOJI):  Hiroe is a beautiful, healthy young woman with a   
   decent boyfriend and a loving home life.  The only problem she has is   
   a big one - she's unable to have an orgasm with her boyfriend.  When   
   it's found that she can't help herself, her sister and mother (sorry,   
   neighbour and landlady) and "known lesbian" friend pitch in to try to   
   help, in a series of events ranging from funny to twisted.  [Available   
   from Soft Cel Pictures.]   
      
      FUJIMI ORCHESTRA:  Fujimi (town) has a small adult orchestra.  The   
   first violinist is very good, but has no self confidence.  The new   
   conductor becomes enamored of him, is convinced he can do better, and   
   eventually forces a relationship on him.  The novels of this title do   
   a good job of following their long term careers.  The anime gives an   
   introduction to the characters up through the initial forced   
   seduction.  This title has no science fiction, no magic, no comedy,   
   just good solid drama about everyday people in their everyday lives.   
   It also features what appears to be the single longest sex scene of   
   all hardcore yaoi anime.  [Available raw.]   
      
      GOKU, MIDNIGHT EYE:  see MIDNIGHT EYE GOKU   
      
      HANAPPE BAZOOKA:  An odd title by Go Nagai (DEVILMAN, NEW CUTEY   
   HONEY) about a young, hapless, heavily picked-on guy named Hanappe who   
   really wants no more than to go out with one of his beautiful   
   classmates.  He inadvertently summons a couple of demons, who grant   
   him his wish to be strong and overtake his life, house and family in   
   return.  While the small bits of sex in this are quite obvious, it's   
   difficult to consider this a hentai title.  Weird slapstick humour and   
   poignant moments run alongside each other, and somehow still work.   
   [Available from ADV Films.]   
      
      THE HEX FILES:  see MAGICAL TWILIGHT   
      
      IMMORAL SISTERS:  Yet another blackmail story, about a twisted old   
   man who gets his jollies deflowering young girls, and his son, who   
   thinks he has to prove his worth to the boss' secretary by being an even   
   bigger pervert.  Involves a hilarious revenge scheme in the last part -   
   after the female characters decide to abandon their dignity and hit the   
   guys where it hurts...  Very, very explicit, well drawn and animated.   
   [NuTech]   
      
      INMA SIEDEN:  A six episode series involving rape-murders (the   
   victims expire from exhaustion) at a school by people who command   
   monster "Kings" whose rapes reveal the girls as "sheaths".  While there   
   is actually a story here, it is muddled by the fact that the reason   
   behind the rape-murders is hidden from the viewer, it is hard to tell   
   whose side most of the main characters are on, and what relationship   
   they have to each other.  One wonders whether there was some sort of   
   back story that didn't make it to the series.  [Available from Nutech]   
      
      KOIHIME:  A sweet story of four girls in love with a boy their   
   guardians will never let them have, but who they go to great lengths to   
   get anyway.  This one is very nice in all respects - from art, to   
   animation, to story, to character definition, to sexual content.  Add in   
   the twist that it's the girls doing all the chasing, and it's a title   
   that stands out.  [NuTech]   
      
      LA BLUE GIRL:  UROTSUKIDOJI creator Toshio Maeda spices up the   
   Overfiend formula with the cute and sexy Miko Mido, a half-demon girl   
   who must now battle evil Shikima using a school of martial (marital?)   
   arts known as Sexcraft after the signet case which symbolizes the Mido   
   family's authority over the Shikima is stolen.  The humour quotient is   
   also increased, but the tentacles are still the main draw here.

      LOVE LESSON:  A guy with money trouble gets recruited by the Yakuza   
   to train perfect partners for high-profile clients with "exotic" tastes,   
   which turn out to be not that bad after all - one of them even wants a   
   dominatrix...  Haven't seen all of this yet, but so far it's fairly   
   gentle, with only a mild bit of blackmail.  Consensus seems to be that   
   this is a "nice" title.  Fairly explicit in parts.
