Review: Kangoku Senkan
Lilith is a large company producing goods for the adult market encompassing an array of sub labels such as Black Lilith, ZIZ Entertainment and more. With years and years in the business they have expanded from VNs into, novels, manga, art books, drama CDs, live action and anime. In this review I will be looking at what is one of their larger properties: Kangoku Senkan.
Lieri Bishop and Naomi Evans work as officers for the
Universal Federation. Their new mission is to board a space battleship to
report crimes on the Neo Terrors. Donny Bogan is the captain of this ship and
of the Neo Terrors. With past memories of being arrested for an attempted
kidnap by Lieri and Naomi still ingrained in his mind he has revenge in his
sights of the lecherous variety. Will Lieri and Naomi being able to resist or
is their future set in stone?
Sure it’s a typical revenge angle being played out but
the scene, execution and characters set it apart. That and I am always in
favour of authoritative figures, whether right or wrong, getting degraded like
they are here. Big plus point. The battleship itself acts as a prison (hence
the name of the series), there is no escape for the girls, the wide variety of
fetishes displayed keeps the series fresh and luscious art always helps.
Lieri is the senior commander here, Naomi looks up to her
as a role model for her job. Both are stern and always abide by their duties.
Lieri being the senior commander she asserts herself much more, she has an aura
of control. When it comes to the sexual scenarios she takes the lead so as to make
a good impression on Naomi who is rather reluctant and finds it hard despite it
being her duty.
To round off the main trio we have Donny Bogan, the guy
who was once arrested by these two girls years ago after he was caught
attempting a kidnap mission. Being the type of seedy guy he is he holds a bit
of a grudge and plans to humiliate and break them in revenge. Sure what he
wants to do seems a bit overboard and a bit generic but it works and works well
here. He has a sick motivation and is hell bent on ensuring it works.
One of my favourite aspects of this series is the mind
switch. Because Lieri and Naomi have been brainwashed they switch from normal,
duty abiding officers during the day to effectively comfort women during the
night servicing the male officers in any way they want. It’s the look on their
faces and how they are feeling which really did it for me. They think this is
normal and a duty but despise it. Lieri gets into it more being the senior
commander with Naomi more reluctant but it’s the gradual decline and move into
more perverted and filthy acts where the series gets it so right.
In terms of what content there is here, well there is a
lot. All sorts of fetishes are catered for. There is large amounts of rape
(though the girls think its their duty), torture, erotic maid outfits, use of stocks,
the use of nose hooks (I really, really love nose hooks), scat and brainwashing. This
goes down the more extreme line of fetishes and increases the lengths they go to each episode and anyone with even slight
aversion to this should steer clear.
A special mention to a rather interesting brainwashing
machine that covers their heads as numerous sex toys, vibrators are strapped to
themalong with constant injections as they cum incessantly and begin to lose their mind. The image of them
sat in these chairs, with their uniforms (and later without) being subjected to
this is one of the many standout scenes here. Every episode this gets more and more hardcore, it is a sight to behold.
The art here is exquisite. Just like with Taimanin Asagi
the art is done by Kagami Hirotaka who knows how to draw the female form. Both
Lieri and Naomi are rather buxom with large breasts and accentuated features.
It is ideal for an ero series as both girls look incredibly sexy. Their
uniforms deserve a mention as well, the colours stand out well, the long
leggings and short skirts that only just cover their panties.
Just like Taimanin Asagi the director for this series is
Teruaki Murakami and that means it has a very similar animation method: the method
here is in the motion. When Lieri or Naomi is performing a sexual act, be it
orally, anally or otherwise it switches between slow and ludicrously fast
motion and incorporates extreme close ups of the girls bodies and faces. It
also contains a lot of blurry imagery fading in and out whilst the camera never
stays still.
Again it works so well and does make it seem higher
budgeted than other ero anime. That said the same issues may still apply here.
It is most certainly not something everyone will like, it can take a bit of
getting used to and even myself with this very series a few years ago found it
too off putting but I grew to like it, to appreciate it.
It goes without saying that I recommend this series. At 4
episodes it covers a lot, the animation is excellent for an ero series, and it
wraps up in a nice (well, for me) way. If you like mind breaks, rape or
breaking strong willed women down in your ero series then this is a must.
