    Kajika has spent most of her life on an isolated Caribbean island to protect her from the enemies of her father, and just as she finally gets a taste of a normal life in Japan she’s suddenly called to her father’s estate in the USA. There he proposes a game; he will set up meetings with three men of his choosing for her to pick a husband from… but will not tell her which men he selected nor tell any of them that they were chosen.

    A mix of dramatic romantic development and international political/corporate conspiracy, with a small amount of comic relief and a few action scenes scattered about.

  • Sakigake!! Otoko Juku

    Posted on November 25, 2017 2:50 pm by Offkorn Comment

    Otoku Juku, a fabled institution that accepts dropouts from across Japan in order to turn them into the manliest of men. Its methods are extreme however and it more closely resembles a prison than a school.

    Starts out as a comedy with minor action elements that parodies manly men stereotypes, eventually fully transforming into a serious action-drama by the halfway point.

    Government-affiliated spiritualist by day and dominatrix by night, Misaki Saiki does not particularly enjoy either job and wishes for a more normal life. Something that seems forever out of reach due to both her albino appearance and ability to see ghosts.

    A multi-genre series with a large amount of ecchi, occasionally bordering on the pornographic, distributed throughout. The comedy style is mostly reaction-based while the drama is on the darker side of the spectrum.

    Hijiri finally gets her motorcycle license, meaning Hayakawa will no longer have to chauffeur her around. He ends up so overcome with emotion on their last ride home together that he somehow manages to regain his youthful appearance… that of a young girl! How will Hijiri explain this to her friends?

    A fantasy-tinged story with a bit of drama that takes place after the events of the main series.

  • FAIRY TAIL (OVAs)

    Posted on November 21, 2017 4:25 am by Offkorn Comment

    Not every day has to be a life or death experience, and in the downtime between world-shaking events the mages of the Fairy Tail guild often find themselves doing more mundane things such as cleaning a pool, training at the beach, or relaxing at a water park.

    A collection of side-stories primarily focused on ecchi and comedy. Though most of them take place at various points during the parent series (1 & 3 are in the 69-97 range, 4 is post-123, 5 is between 170 & 171, and 7-9 are post-201), a couple (2 & 6) are stand-alone what-ifs.

    From unexpected encounters at a cafe, to ringing in the new year, to difficulties at school, the everyday lives of Tooru, Run, Yuuko, and Nagi are never dull.

    A small set of OVAs with the same variety of content found in the parent series. It would be a good idea to watch that first, both for the character introductions and because this references a few events there.

    Thirty years after a thermonuclear war devastated the Earth, a young girl named Haruka is awakened from cryogenic stasis. Accompanied by her 5 robotic companions, she searches the blasted landscape for signs of other surviving humans.

    A mostly character-focused drama with intermittent action scenes and occasional spots of comic relief to lighten the mood. The first half bears a closer resemblance to a slice of life while the second is heavily narrative-driven.

    Long ago Yuuta ate the flesh of a mermaid, becoming one of the rare people to receive immortality from the act instead of an agonizing death. Now he wanders Japan seeking another mermaid in the hopes of finding a cure for the condition.

    An episodic collection of dramatic short stories with bits of action and romance scattered throughout. Note that episodes 4-5 & 12-13 have earlier OVA adaptations available and that episodes 10-13 take place between episodes 6 & 7.

    The three realms (heavenly, human, and boundary) keep their balance by cycling souls from one to another, often by force, with the responsibility of transferral falling to the boundary realm’s Black & White Warriors. The youngest of these are Heng Wang and Liang Yan, a unique pair who have never completed an assignment and only seem to excel at being late.

    An action-drama with an initially large streak of comic relief which almost entirely disappears by the halfway point.

In her travels she comes across the spirit of a man who’s lost his memories, and offers to help him discover who he was if he’ll become her servant.

    An action-drama with a large comedic streak and minor ecchi aspects.
