The Spring and Summer ecchi titans continue to roll out BD goodness as we wait for the Fall releases to begin next month. Also, Strike the Blood releases its first OVA.
(note: the Triage X OVA was officially released on November 2nd but was made available in late October).
November 18th:
Monster Musume no Iru Nichijou vol.03
November 25th:
High School DxD BorN vol.04
Prison School vol.03
Shimoneta to Iu Gainen ga Sonzai Shinai Taikutsu na Sekai vol.04
Strike the Blood OVA 01
November 26th:
Grisaia no Rakuen vol.04
November 27th:
To Love-Ru Darkness 2nd vol.03
Monster Musume no Iru Nichijou vol.03 (November 18th)
Episodes 5 and 6 uncensored in blu-ray HD quality. Expect minimal content changes from Nico Nico.
High School DxD BorN vol.04 (November 25th)
The latest special is titled: “Levia-tan and So-tan ☆.” Hopefully it will present Leviathan’s first animated nude scene. We had previously only seen her nipples via static images in eye-catches.
Class President Souna is Leviathan’s sister and she’s arguably got the most delicious flat chest in the series, so it’s nice to see them have a special together. Strong potential here.
Prison School vol.03 (November 25th)
Episodes 5 and 6 uncensored in blu-ray HD quality. Expect minimal content changes from Nico Nico.
Shimoneta to Iu Gainen ga Sonzai Shinai Taikutsu na Sekai vol.04 (November 25th)
As best I can tell, the only hope for nudity in this volume is with a surprise added scene or if the end cards become uncensored, though neither of those scenarios occurred in the previous volumes. So probably nothing this month.
Strike the Blood OVA 01 (November 25th)
Strike the Blood was an odd anime for service. They showed wet T-shirt nipples (visible even on the censored TV broadcast!) early on in the series which had us expecting great things. Unfortunately, the series would miss opportunity after opportunity as the episodes progressed, before finally adding a few token nipple sightings at the very end.
In the old days, it used to be that tamer ecchi series would use OVA to go all out (shows like Sorcerer Hunters , Maze , Amaenaideyo , etc.) but in modern times it seems like mildly ecchi shows in the same vein as Strike the Blood tend to take it easy in the OVA.
I’m a bit pessimistic here, especially since it’s likely that these OVA are meant to transition the story for a new season and might not have much time for eye candy. But all the same it will be fun to find out what SILVER LINK has in store for us.
Grisaia no Rakuen vol.04 (November 26th)
Looks like we’ll get a little bit of Milliela nudity from the actual episodes, a nice bonus for a series that has mostly relied on BD specials for service.
Sachi is on the cover, but I’m not sure if that means she’s the focus of the special or not.
Update: The special is titled “Makina and Sachi naughty snack time.” Thanks to Ihavenoname for dropping some knowledge on us.
To Love-Ru Darkness 2nd vol.03 (November 27th)
The usual suspects – Lala, Nana, Momo, Yui, and now Nemesis – all get some nude scenes here. But the real question is what will happen in Mikan’s epic bath scene.
Sadly, the odds are high that this series botches Mikan’s opportunities YET AGAIN, but who knows, maybe they have finally gotten tired of hearing complaints from the fans. I very much doubt we get Mikan nips here, but if I’m wrong and they deliver, it makes To Love-Ru Darkness 2nd the hands down favorite for ecchi series of the year.
