    What a strange fan-service anime

    This is my first review focusing on any fan-service anime OVA, put under the genre Ecchi.

    "Jungle de Ikou" is an anime OVA, which mostly focuses on fan-service and weird humor. It was made by director Yuyi Moriyama, year 1997.

    There are NO spoilers in this review, just the basic plot and the content generally, so you can feel free to read this review. ;-)

    Basic plot: A schoolgirl named Natsumi Rokudo receives ancient sculpture from her archaeological father, without knowing that a demon named Ongo is sealed in it. In one night she dreams about a spirit named Ahem telling her about a legend about the awakening of Ongo (who will in the worst case destroy the Earth), as well as telling her to do a "sexy tribal dance" in order to transform into Mii, the spirit of flower, fertility and reproduction. And when Natsumi awakens from the dream, small Ongo appears in front of Natsumi's eyes...

    Enough about the plot in order to avoid spoilers, this is just the beginning of what happens to be a humorous adventure filled with hilarious fan-service (which involves huge breasts and panty shots), so I think the fans of this kind of anime will probably "get some nosebleed", according to what a Japanese myth says. The animation is very 90s, hence the fact this 3-part OVA-series was made in 1997. The action itself is enough to keep you entertained. The opening sequence is just weird. Not exactly an anime OVA to be viewed to children, just to have it warned.

    So basically I will recommend fans of Ecchi-anime to watch this at least once. Several other fan-service Animes include: "Megami Paradise", "Puni Puni Poemi", "Agent Aika", "Arcade Gamer Fubuki" and "Labyrinth of Flames".

    So "get some nosebleeds", folks... ;-)

    Hilariously inappropriate anime

    I'll heartily recommend this for fans of off-the-wall anime in the school of Jungle wa itsumo hale nochi guu, Captain tsubasa, Super gals kotobuki ran and Sexy commando sugoiyu. The plot centers on a 12 year old girl given the power to change into a massively chested fertility goddess by performing a "sexy dance" (how she learns this is one of the funniest scenes ive ever seen), and her subsequent use of this 'power' to save the world from a demon. The film never skips a chance to show off her panties for some reason, and there is so much juvenile sexual innuendo scattered throughout the three episodes it had me shaking my head and grinning madly in disbelief. This is quite a strange little collection of ideas they put in motion. Essentially the movie is about gigantic breasts and showing them off in the most ludicrous contexts imaginable, such as surfing on a flying whale or squished against the canopy of an F15 fighter.

    If you take this for what it is; Slapstick comedy with a slightly oversexed but entirely benevolent heart, youll find it to be quite an entertaining and lovable flick. I know it had me in stitches at certain points. Seven out of ten! :)
