The other day I was doing random research for a blog writeup when I stumbled across an interesting factoid: the guy who directed the original Maken-Ki! series also directed the second, third, and fourth seasons of Ikkitousen. That was pretty surprising, given the huge difference in art styles.
Yet another fully self-contained episode which (as far as I know) deviates from the manga, called “filler” for short. This time a mysterious force from Inaho’s cat turns all the girls at school into catgirls.
Nope, nothing in this one.
Here are my personal top 25 “most recommendable” fanservice compilations that I’ve made so far. If you’re one of the newer readers and you haven’t downloaded everything yet, I’d urge you to check out the following videos (this isn’t about which actual anime series I think are the best, just a list of my personal favorites among the compilation videos).
This episode was effectively without nudity censorship, though an early tub scene offers some faint redraw potential. The only upper body censorship came during a brief flashback from a previous episode. The was some more panty censorship, which seemed slightly less silly this time around as her panties were drenched after a happy accident.
I actually put some effort into this one.
One of the frustrating things about being an anime fan is the reality that like all forms of entertainment, anime is a business first and foremost. The profitability of a series not only plays into the likelihood of a sequel, but of the overall well being of the company that made it, or even the fate of certain anime genres as a whole.
Green Green is one of the best and most daring eroge to ecchi adaptations ever made. Whereas many eroge adaptations discard nudity, sometimes even basic fanservice, in an effort to focus on telling a powerful story, Green Green is utterly shameless and fully transparent with its intentions to service viewers.
Perhaps moreso than the first episode, the second episode of nourin gives a pretty distinct “Baka and Test” vibe for its humor, in the sense that while you may chuckle at points, there are times you kind of hate yourself for it.
Hyakka Ryouran began as a light novel and has since received three manga adaptations and much more famously a pair of anime seasons produced by ARMS under the name Samurai Girls and later Samurai Bride. The anime is of course full of nude fanservice, but in the two manga I’ve been able to track down, only one had nudity. That manga with nudity went by the name Hyakka Ryouran – Samurai Blade.
