Pre-Viewing Expectations
This is a 3-DVD box set, and I think the first paragraph from the back of the box sets the viewer's expectations quite well. To quote from the box, "Welcome to a series of DVDs the likes of which you've never seen before! Strong stories, highly charged with erotic content, all presented without Japan's export censorship (as they were intended to be seen). They don't follow a single story. They break all of the rules. They are Cool Devices. they aren't for kids, but they might be for you if you have the guts. Welcome to a new world...and wash your hands when you're done."
The Main Event
There is a lot of ground to cover in this review, as there are 3 packed DVD's containing 13 different stories (called Operations) in all. I'll give a brief overview of the plot for each, and the main themes the action covers.
Operation 1: Curious Fruit
A few women are sitting in a bar enjoying drinks after work. A couple walk in, she wearing a very revealing outfit. They start to take indecent liberties with each other in the bar, while all of the patrons gawk at them. The three women say they are disgusted, but one of them is strangely turned on by watching them. When they leave, she feels some compulsion to follow them. The couple suduces her in a back alley, and take her with them. Next thing she knows, she's bound, being whipped into submission as a sex slave. When we next see a couple putting on a show at the bar, she's the new woman. Main themes covered are bondage, submission, punishment, exhibitionism, and group sex.
Operation 2: Sacred Girl
A boy, left by the death of his parents, takes over care of a rather large house, a house which hosts nightly sex orgies. He doesn't partake, but watches the action secretly via hidden cameras. Most of his time is spent watching his little sister, whom he desires. The sex trainer in the house helps him to open up a bit, and also introduces the little sister to the joys of sex. She then puts the two siblings in a room together and lets nature run its course. Main themes covered are vouyerism, group sex, and incest.
Operation 3a: Lover Doll
This one opens with a woman dressed up as a bunny in a cage. A woman dressed up as a cat comes to visit, and the two start to play. The "master" comes in, and scolds the cat with "Bad Kitty!", the doles out his punishment. He beats and fucks the kitty, has the bunny blow him, ties up and whips the bunny, drips hot wax on the bunny, then finally fucks her. Main themes covered are role playing, bondage and punishment.
Operation 3b: Winter Swimsuit
Guy's getting head from a woman in a swimsuit, indoors during a snow storm. He takes a box cutter, cuts the swimsuit so her breasts are free and tit fucks her. Then he cuts the crotch of the suit, and finishes his business. No predominat main theme in this one.
Operation 3c: Enema
I think the title speaks for itself on this one. Main themes are rape and the enema.
Operation 4: Kirei
An orgy on a tropical island leads the men to say they need to find a new blossom. They dump the current woman down a chute, and look for a new one. They stumble across a tourist chasing butterflies along the beach. The men invite her and her friend over for food and wine, where the wine is drugged. The drugs opens up their sexual side, and they start to play with each other while the men look on and jerk off. One woman exclaims "I'm being raped and I'm enjoying it." The girls come to and try to escape, but are recaptured. When they are caught again, the men say "The fun's just beginning." The men take their turns with the women, and when bored with them, they too are thrown down the chute. The viewer hears all of the women down the chute having an orgy, but doesn't see it. Main themes are rape, drugs, abduction, and lesbianism.
Operation 5: Seek I
A woman is taken to a large house against her will, stripped, bound, whipped and molested. She's dressed as a nurse and taught how to be a good little sex slave. She's taught how to masturbate, given an enema, has her ass inflated with compressed air, and forced to lick another woman's ass. After a good ass fucking, she passes out. Main themes covered are abduction, bondage, punishment, enema and rape.
Operation 6: Seek II (SM Queen Saki)
The woman who does the training of sex slaves from Seek I has flashbacks to her own training, where she is taught pleasure and pain are the same. Back to current time, we see the trainer bringing out three new slaves to a sex party. They are on a platter and covered in cream and strawberries. As the party goers enjoy the "cake", we see flashbacks to the training of these new slaves. One is laying on a table, with electrodes on her nipples and in her pussy, being shocked almost to death by the trainer. Another is released on the grounds of the mansion, and the dogs are unleashed on her. The dogs don't kill her, they strip her and start to lick her pussy. We also see a flashback to when two of the slaves were tied together, a double didlo connecting them. One of them bleeds, a virgin one would presume. The slaves overpower the trainer, turn her back into a slave, bound, fucked by the party goers, shocked and wrapped in thorny vines. Main themes covered are SM, bondage, beastality, punishment, and rape.
Operation 7: Yellow Star
A woman marries a polic detective, who drops an item during dinner so he can look up his step- daughter's skirt as he retrieves it. The detective buys some drugs, then kills the dealer. The detective proceeds to repeatly drug and rape his step-daughter, eventually allowing his hoods to join in on the action. The step daughter gets even by killing the detective, although she does so indirectly. Main themes here are incest, drugs, rape, gang rape and murder.
Operation 8: Slave Warrior Maya I
A woman is abducted from earth and taken to an alien planet. She's sold at auction as a sex slave. She's being trained in the proper way to be a good sex slave, when her mistress helps her escape. She stumbles across a magical sword, which turns her into a warrior. During her escape, she kills many guards, but is recaptured, the sword is taken away, and she returnes to her role as a sex slave. Main themes are alien abduction, slavery, punishment and murder.
Operation 9: Slave Warrior Maya II
Maya is in a dungeon, with some machine up her twat. This machine converts her, so that when she becomes excited, her clit transforms into a fully functional dick. Some Lord is scanning the planets for some druid warrior, ends up on the same planet as Maya. Maya tries to escape again, and is again recaptured. An alien parasite is placed in her pussy, which tries to destroy her brain and turn her into a mindless sex slave. She's forced to fuck another woman with her clit/dick. Main themes are bondage and slavery.
Operation 10: Binding
Guy falls asleep on a train, dreams of rescuing a woman he's never seen before. He awakes to find his luggage, and wallet stolen. He chases the thief off the train, but can't catch him. He waits for the next train, but an earthquake takes out the tracks. A peasant woman offers him a place to stay for the night. She is the woman from his dream. He fucks her, then fucks the maid after the maid enters the shower he's taking. Some drug is sprayed into the air, and he falls asleep afterwards. He wakes up in the middle of the night to find the girl and the maid being punished for having sex with him. When he makes comment of this the next morning, the night's events are denied as ever having happened. Later in the day, he encounters two girls having 69, they invite him to join them. Again, drugs are sprayed in the air, and he falls asleep. In the middle of the night, he finds the two girls being punished for inviting him to join them. This time, he's forced into submission at gun point, and allows one of the girls to piss into his mouth. The next day, there is another earthquake, the girl from the dream and he are the only ones to escape before the house tumbles into the ocean. Main themes are lesbianism, slavery, punishment and bondage.
Operation 11: Fallen Angel Rina
Rina is a popular singer, who's manager (her father) falls ill. To keep her father's honor, she must pay back some favors her father owes. To do this, she sells her soul (and her body) to the recording company. She's bound, drugged, gang raped and paraded all over town in skimpy outfits because the record company wants her to have a more "adult" appeal. In the end, she's sold as a slave for 6 months at auction for $580 million yen. Main themes are bondage, punishment, rape, drugs and exhibitism.
The Details
The video for this collection is fine, after all, we're talking about cartoons here. The anime is typical Japan style, where all of the women are fair skinned, Western eyed, large breasted, and young looking.
The audio tracks are good for background sounds, but not needed for the dialogue as they are in Japanesse. The stories are all English subtitled.
For special features, there are some photos in a photo album, and that's about it.
Conclusion
Fans of anime will want to pick up this set, as long as taboo subject matter doesn't disturb them. These stories can get a bit dark at times, but since they are only cartoons, it seems a bit more removed from reality than a live action porno covering the same subject matter would be. If you are new to anime, you may want to start off with something a bit less intense for the first go around, then work your way up to this collection. The overall rating given this feature doesn't equal the individual ratings given for parts of it as the rating system doesn't seem to apply very well to anime based porn when compared to live action which is the majority of reviews on this site.
This is a 3-DVD box set, and I think the first paragraph from the back of the box sets the viewer's expectations quite well. To quote from the box, "Welcome to a series of DVDs the likes of which you've never seen before!
