    Urotsuki: Probably best this franchise ended

    The original Urotsukidoji impressed me, it was a visual epic with a fantastic storyline and fantastic animation well ahead of it's time. You could get past the perviness of it all because the substance was there.

    Gradually the movies got worse, the animation style changed and the plot ceased making any sense.

    This very final addition to the franchise underlines my opinion that it needs to die, it's gotten out of hand. The quality of the animation is the only thing that has improved, the story is nonsensical and the explicitness of it all is ridiculously over the top and for the sake of it.

    I'd give a brief descritpion of the plot but honestly it's not very good and doesn't make a vast amount of sense anyway.

    By far the most graphic and crude part of the series I found myself rather uncomfortable at much of the content, it was just all so gratuitous.

    The first couple of movies are worth your time, this is not.

    The Good:

    Animation is great

    The Bad:

    Stupidly gratuitous

    Plot has gone off the rails

    Cliffhanger finale with no follow up

    Things I Learnt From This Movie:

    Amano has a lightsaber for a penis suddenly

    A victim declaring love for her rapist has to be one of the most unnerving things I've seen

    Some demons can pull magical arrows out of their butts

    Beyond good and evil

    Being celebrated as best sex fantasy epic of its kind (yeah, I really said that), I was intrigued. Haven't seen original, this direct-to-video title is commented upon on its own merits.

    From start. There's story. Good one. Legend says, that near future omnipotent god (aka Chojin) will be reborn and link three existing realms - our human, of demons and of beasts into one. Yes, another story about adolescent man with secret powers will take place here. What makes this one different (aside from sex obviously) is that characters have some depth. Clashing between otherworld powers also helps, not to mention a nice twist about true identity and purpose of the god.

    I was little disappointed with visuals though. This was supposed to be remake, but aside from digital effects. it's on par with run of the mill Saturday morning cartoon. Character design and at least sex scenes are done nicely though.

    Content is where Urotsukidoji really shines. Throw all your morals out of window, it'd be obstruction here. Girls get raped, cities burned down and about everyone else vaporized by plasma-sperm. Everything in over-the-top rampage. Sex is somewhat important to plot. The act itself is by the way the very thing, that will awoke God.

    I haven't seen anything like this.
