Ishuzoku Rebyuâzu (2020)
Good, maybe great for some.
I want to start off with this; this entire show is pretty much a hentai, and has a lot of fanservice and sexual scenes.
I started this show knowing absolutely nothing, and Ive always really hated sexual animes, but God is it funny. The characters are fairly unique and I love their voices and designs a lot. Despite this show lacking a serious plot it sticks to what it does have, and really it's super easy to get sucked into watching. You don't even need to be some horny loser to enjoy this show purely because of such.
More than the characters, though, the animation isn't choppy if you're worried about that. There's a pretty clear body diversity between characters, and most of them aren't mocked either other than by Stunk (one of the main characters). Each episode is pretty much the same, yet it has its good parts.
Typical episode starts with a snippet of a problem or introducing a brief side character, sometimes the main group getting a request to go to a brothel, they go out after getting scolded by their mutual friend Meidri, do their thing, and then they write a review with ratings of the brothel accompanied by an animation of the group doing an Activity to show their scores (E. X: in one of the first few episodes, the group is bowling and the amount of pins they knock down would be the rating.)
The side characters all have little intertwined relationships and frequently are within their own groups, however almost all of them pop up again. The intro and outro songs are both catchy and again, just plain funny. Usually after the outro there's also a little clip including some of the side/background characters.
Despite it being a short season, with how the last episode ended off and the fact that they stuck very closely to the few parts of storyline they had, is that more seasons are entirely possible (though I'm sure unlikely.)
For the more sexual parts though, which is also plenty of the show, each episode covers different kinks and character preferences. Usually there are still jokes written within these scenes, but if your trying to get off..?? I can't really say much, seeing as I lack any interest in such. Reading from other reviews, seems like it works well enough if that's what you're looking for?..
The color choices and character designs are adorable and eye catching! The way characters are drawn is generally appealing, etc.
However the show does have downsides, like any other. The softcore porn kind of just drags everything out way too long, and it does make me lose interest. Also, I kind of just get embarrassed when watching.
Beyond that, seeing as too much of the show is taken up by sex, we don't know a lot about the characters themselves. We know some stuff, like bits and pieces of general information; backgrounds, ages, the things they do and don't like, etc etc. But it avoided things that were important even though they had been mentioned over and over, such as crims halo and the plot itself didn't really expand at all throughout the anime.
I read a few other reviews and the series ones have said nearly the same things I did, and I saw that there was a manga which was mentioned a few times. Im probably just going to read it later today! People have a more positive view towards it.
TL:DR
Cute, too much softcore sex, funny in its own way, characters are well thought out and have personality, but there's not alot to go off of. Wasted potential.
Manga might be better, idk, haven't read it yet.
