RECOMMENDATION: If you do not mind (or even enjoy) beast and rape themed hentai, you should check this out if you have time to spare. It is pretty decent but nothing amazing yet very enjoyable nonetheless. If you like PoRo’s work in general, you should definitely check this out. I will start my review with a spoiler free section and proceed with a more detailed section. Story: 6. First of all the story was nothing amazing, it revolves around a setting that is just a simple excuse to jump in the H-scenes. The use of beasts and rape is a very cowardly way of forcing suchscenes in an anime. Besides that, it does have an underlying theme that made me question the very morals of life and human nature itself. This anime sheds light on the different ways people can behave when put in a threatened environment. I will explore this theme later on. Art: 7. The art is pretty good but not amazing. PoRo has a very consistent art style that make you recognize the studio in all of their works. Always using the same art style has the positive feature of not decreasing in quality but that is also why it never improves. The character design is pretty good and the girls are very cute but the orcs have some inconsistencies, but I will get back to that at the end. The animation was very decent for a hentai. Compared to regular anime it is not that good but hentai often have a very small budget. As for most hentai series, the animation during non-H scenes is very weak but during the H-scenes they are fairly decent. The common trait in hentai is to use loops rather than faithful animation but it is very enjoyable nonetheless. Sound: 7. The sound was very good, but the background music was the standard tracks PoRo uses for all their series. I do not really like that they reuse the same track for all their anime but if that helps reduce the production costs and put more in the art and animation, I am fine with it. The great thing is: the seiyuus were really good. Not only do their moaning turn me on, they can really give character to the heroines. And besides that, the seiyuus of Yukino and Reika are actually also mainstream anime seiyuus. Yukino’s seiyuu Hiromi Igarashi also voices Anzu from The iDOLM@STER Cinderella Girls, Mii-chan from High School Fleet, Shizuku from Sakura Trick and many more. And likewise Reika’s seiyuu Hiroko Taguchi voices, among others, Amane from the Grisaia series and Sora from Yosuga no Sora. Character: 7. The behavior of the characters were relatable to an extent but the actions of certain characters could be deemed stupid or immoral but I will get to that in a minute. Enjoyment: 8. I am a big PoRo fan and I always like their work. As a fan you become used to beast and rape themes but everyone has his own fetishes. Other fetishes in this anime are belly expansion and heterochromia (different eye colors). I, personally, thoroughly enjoyed it. I have seen better but it did not disappoint. Overall: 7. This is where I will start SPOILING parts of the series. Please stop reading if you do not want to be spoiled!!! Before I proceed I need to quickly tell you which part I am talking about: One of the girls, Yukino, who has no idea of the concept of ‘friends’, starts off with a bad relationship with Reika but as the earthquake hits, the fog appears and the orcs emerged from it, both girls end up hiding in a room to survive. This is when Reika proposes to become friends with Yukino. Yukino, who starts to learn the concept of what a friend is, opens up to Reika but when an orc arrives at the door. Reika betrays the other girls by opening the locked door and letting the orc in, sacrificing her so called ‘friend’ to escape unharmed. These actions do not only come from the personality of the characters but also from the very INSTINCT OF HUMAN NATURE. When faced with a dire situation, in this case being hunted by the raping orcs, humans tend to take actions as they deem best in such situation. Some people try to work together because humans are group animals. Yukino was finally getting to know what a friend is but her nature to work together and the bliss of finally having a friend, blinded her by the obvious fact that the girl she always hated, was playing her. I think this is the reason she fell for such a trap. Other people will prioritize themselves and this leads to the behavior of Reika. She uses others to protected herself, to prevent herself from harm. But when the inevitable happened and she got raped by multiple orcs, she started to cry for help. And this shows that lone wolf way of thinking only gets you so far and you end up needing the help of others. And lastly, there are people who try to protect others by ‘sacrificing’ themselves like the older from the two sisters did. When the little sister was about to get caught because she made a noise, the older sister forced the orc’s attention on her and even after she was fucked unconscious, when she woke up and saw her little sister getting raped by an orc she took action so she instead got raped, again saving her sister. As you can see, this anime sheds light on the different ways people can behave when put in a threatened environment. Even though the story is a fiction and far from reality it still tells us about the morals we hopefully never have to worry about. Now let us talk about a few flaws in this anime. Like I mentioned earlier, the use of beasts can be a fetish to some but it also is a very cowardly of forcing H-scenes. What I mean with this is that you do not really consider orcs as characters but as a monsters that cannot help but violate all women to satisfy their urges. This is a very copout way because you do not have to create a character with a motive to rape. A good character background would let us, the viewers, sympathize (even just slightly) with the monster. The fact that they just threw it at us like “this is a monster, it rapes and kills.”, shows that they ran away from the responsibility of creating a relatable (or as relatable as can be) antagonist. Of course a serial rapist is nothing more than that, but not even giving it a human form gives it even a more distant feel. But things like this happen with hentai logic. Another sin this anime is guilty of is the all too common scenario where after you raped a girl long enough, she breaks, starts to like it and even begs for it. This is a common thing in hentai because it decreases your guilt and distracts you from the fact that you are watching someone get raped. Besides, it also is a fetish to many, including me. Finally, like a mentioned earlier, the orcs have a few inconsistencies when it comes to their character design. What I am talking about is their large penises. In Reika’s toilet scene in the second episode, she performed fellatio while the width of the orc’s penis could fit in her mouth. A few seconds later, when she tripped and fell on the floor (classic move by the way), the penis width was as big as her head. You can also see this when she get slapped in the face with it in the hallway. After that, the orc penetrated her so it is essentially stuffing the size of your head in your vagina. Unless the orcs can easily change the size of their penis, this does not make much sense. All in all, I will end my review with mentioning the scene where Sae, the little sister, was resting on the orc’s penis from head to ass like a sloth on a tree branch. That made me laugh.
