Saw episode 1......OH F*CK YES!!! I've been eying on this OVA series for a couple weeks now and it delivered! Rin Asougi (voiced by the awesomeness of Mamiko Noto) seriously ranks up as one of the most sexy, badass chicks ever made (props to the characters designer whom I've heard did designs for really edgy bishoujo visual novels for Nitro+). And this doesn't skimp on the violence and nudity at all.
Spoiler :
And not to mention that aftermath scene of Rin getting sexually tortured by another chick named Sayara who has a thing with piercings. I bet guro fans will get a huge kick out of this! :lol:
As for the plot,
Spoiler :
it seems to go forth an episodic pace since it dealt with Rin who was looking for some lost cat and ended coming some guy who can't remember who he is. Stuff happens, and it led to some plot with that sadistic psycho lesbian Sayara (well she could be bi :o ) hording a bunch of zombies.

Of course there were a few intriguing moments like how Rin became immortal and what's with those floating orbs.
And since this is an OVA, animation is higher than usual which Xebec actually delivered very well. Also the OP and ED sequences were pretty hardcore. Next episode will out on March 3rd!

I was watching this at 2:00 AM... and it kept me up all night. It's like Bacanno! with naked chicks. This is the first time that I have felt an adrenaline rush from watching anime.

I didn't mind the blood during the show, but I couldn't stand the ED sequence with the barbs...

Episode 2, and there's a one year jump! :o

This episode actually explained what those orbs and flying demons were in the OP sequence.
Spoiler :
Those orbs when touched by females actually make them immortal. Rin and her secretary Mimi are indeed immortal. But when those things get touched by males, they turned into Angels and pretty much have killing intentions. Also any time those Angels get close to the immortal girls, the girls become hot and horny against their will and will get killed by them (I'm guessing this is the only way the girls can get killed).

This episode dealt with that aspect involving a stamp collector, an assasination attempt, and a girl's brother who turned into an Angel.
They REALLY ramped up the sex, violence, and the yuri. I mean, go Mimi!!!! 8-)

Next episode will be out April 6th!

Episode 3....and there's a 20 year jump! So it's now 2011?!! :shock:
Spoiler :
This episode dealt with mysterious bombings and an investigation of some weird disease that was prevalent during WWII on something called Death Island. This was all perpetrate by that sadist Sayara who's indeed alive thanks to that time spore! Her plan was to spread the disease to wipe out all of humanity and leave only to the immortals.

Near the end, Kouki sacrificed his his humanity to save save Rin by becoming an Angel. He unfortunately got turned to dust when Apos took out his time spore out of him. So basically Kouki is gone! :cry:

Though on the plus side, Sayara is gone for good as well since Apos ate her time spore.
And yes, anyone who wants to hear what Rie Kugimiya sounds like in a yuri scene will definitely get their wish! :lol:

Next episode will be out on May 4th! Oooo, that's 6 days before my birthday. Sweet!

Got up to ep 3 watched.

I wonder if immortal gals can reproduce... [cough*, no comment on that]

Xebec and Genco are good for their hotness and fighting. [Think fighting Xebec, think hot fanservice from Genco, then again, Shana was a good combo of both too.]

This is an interesting tag team the likes of which rival AIC X GONZO.

Good times
