Project #386: Interspecies Reviewers

Hello and welcome to Project Nitsuj. Sorry, I’m in an important discussion right now.

(Corbin): I’m telling you, animal ears and tails should count as two separate fetishes.

(Baron): And I’m telling you, they count as one.

*Baron and Corbin continue to argue with each other*

(Nitsuj): I’m in the middle of mediating between my inner circle of perverts. Alright enough! Let’s put this to the test.

*Nitsuj pulls up a picture of a catgirl maid with glasses*

(Nitsuj): Name how many fetishes you see in this picture.

(Baron): I see 4.

(Corbin): I see 5.

(Nitsuj): Corbin is correct. There are 5 fetishes on this character. First one is the maid outfit, followed by the glasses, the high knee socks, the ears, and tail.

(Baron): But the tail and ears should count as one fetish.

(Nitsuj): No, they don’t. There have been occasions where animal girls only have animal ears or a tail. Take Blake from RWBY for example. Blake only has animal ears but no tail or how about Lupis from Overlord who is werewolf yet all she has is animal ears that she hides under her maid hat. Therefore, animal ears and tail count as separate fetishes. You have one without the other, but the appeal really shines when you have both.

*Baron thinks about what he just heard*

(Baron): I concede defeat.

(Corbin): Huzzah!

(Nitsuj): *Chuckles* Fetishes have really come a long way in life. What was once simple stuff that turned you on has now become a smorgasbord of a number of kinks that gets you riled up. Anime has been known to explore these kinks and fetishes in their anime and over the years it’s gotten to the point where the line between what counts as ecchi and hentai has begun to blur. What are we allowed to get away with in ecchi anime without crossing the line? The one rule has always been as long as they don’t show insertion of the lower body parts it’s classified as ecchi, but I don’t know. Over the years we’ve gotten a few animes that have gone overboard with their fanservice that it honestly deserves to be called a hentai just for how far it goes. In the past it was Highschool DxD, Shinmai Maou no Testament, and Masou Gakuen HxH that came into this discussion, but those animes now look like babies when you compare it with today’s anime, Interspecies Reviewers. Based off the sex manga written by Amahara in 2016 and still continuing to this day, Interspecies Reviewers asks the question, how many monster girls can I have sex with?

(Baron): The answer, a lot.

(Nitsuj): The series was pretty straightforward. An adventurer and his companions talk about the various species they find sexy and like to have sex with. The appeal of the series was seeing the different viewpoints of each other and what they liked and disliked about the species they were grading. At the start of 2020 an anime produced by Paasione (Rail Wars) began to air and it became one of the most controversial animes in and out of Japan. During the shows run it was removed from multiple streaming sites such as Amazon and Funimation for its content and even a few channels in Japan refused to air the anime. Hell, Funimation who teased that they were going to dub the anime backed out saying that the anime fell outside of their standards (you guys dubbed Queen’s Blade, sin Nanatsu no Taizai, and have a section of your website totally devoted to fanservice animes. You have no standards). This anime really did divide the fandom as some people saw it as distasteful trash while others saw it as funny and entertaining. Some even going as far as naming it the anime of the winter 2020 season and even making it the second highest rated anime on MAL which pretty much broke the site and started an all-out war between them and various Youtubers. Was this a good and funny anime or distasteful trash that only a pervert could like? Well get ready to explore your kinks. Let’s take a look at Interspecies Reviewers.

Opening and Ending Theme

Alright, so the opening is “Ikouze☆Paradise” by Yuusuke Kobayashi, Junji Majima, and Miyu Tomita. The song is a good parody of the YMCA song from The Village People (if you don’t know who they are I’m gonna smack you). The whole song just praises these guys on how much they enjoy being perverts and invite other men to join them. Like I said before the instrumental is a parody of the YMCA song which is good and the lyrics are funny.

The ending is “Hanabira Ondo” by Yuusuke Kobayashi, Junji Majima, and Miyu Tomita. I actually did get a good laugh out of this ending just from the atmosphere the song creates. It starts off like an enka song only to become a pop song and then return to an enka song. On top of this the animation and lyrics for this ending is hilarious.

Episodes 1-4

The anime starts off by telling us that in this fantasy world they have humans, elves, beastmen, and other mythical creatures living together. As you would imagine, with such a diversity of creatures here it opens up a whole new door for the red light district (Baron: Actually, I was thinking about prejudice and housing issues, but your subject is way more important). We focus on our main character Stunk voiced by Junju Majima (Kurusu from Monster Musume) who just got done sleeping with an elf (nice. Those elves are into some freaky stuff) which his elf friend Zel voiced by Yūsuke Kobayashi (Subaru from Re:Zero) finds disgusting because she’s 500 years old (Corbin: Hey, she doesn’t look a day past 20 and she’s legal so that’s good for me). Stunk of course defends his taste by saying she looked young and cute, but Zel still finds it disgusting. Of course, Zel, isn’t any better as he plans to sleep with a 55 year-old human woman who he finds attractive (I guess to elves 50 is the new 25). They continue their debate at a tavern and decide to ask to other patrons of the red light district who are each a different species (one’s a beastman the other a halfling) which is better. All 4 score each girl on a scale of 10 where a majority of them favor the old human woman and give a low score to the elf. They each have valid reasonings for their score. Zel says the old human woman has excellent mana and since mana is important to elves he rates her high. The beastman says the elf smells old and stale so he gives her a 5 (animals are very reliant on smell. If something doesn’t smell good to them they’ll avoid it all together), but gives the old human woman a 7 because she looks plump and nice. The halfling gives them both low scores as they’re both too old for his taste however he rates the old human woman higher. The next day, Stunk and Zel save an angel named Crim (who is a hermaphrodite with both sets) from a monster. He’s voiced by Miyu Tomita (Rizu from We Never Learn). Since his halo is broken he can’t return to Heaven so he asks if he can hang around with them until his halo heals. They say yes as long as he promises to take them up to Heaven so that they can see if they have brothels up there (their dedication to their passion is very admirable). They decide to treat Crim to a night on the town and let him have sex with a catgirl which was his first time having sex (Baron: Yeah, now your speaking my language. (Corbin): Catgirls are nice but I’ll take a doggirl anyday of the week. How about you Nitsuj? (Nitsuj): Hmm~ tough choice. I’m a dog person, but I have to go with catgirls on this one. I like their long tails and ears). Later on, Crim gets a job at the tavern and goes on a quest with Stunk and Zel. Two weeks past and they return where they had sex with birdmaids (ohh~, this is a specifies I’ve never really found all that appealing. Scene here: https://youtu.be/r6taNnq36Ek). Stunk gives them a 9 saying they’re sensitive in the back of the neck and the lewdest species ever. Zel also gives them a 9 commending their lewdness. Crim gives them a 7 saying he liked their wings but didn’t like how submissive they were (and for a guy like him who’s the gentle type, he rather be dominated or be on an equal level as his partner). The final judge is a lamia who gives them a 3 because they wouldn’t let him in (hey wait a second, lamias are an all-female species. Wouldn’t he be a naga?).

In episode 2 we start off with our trio of perverts (or men of culture as some like to call them) and the halfling from last episode deciding to go to a fairy brothel (I can already tell this is going to get a low score from me). Before getting to the fairies each one has to have their dick measured at full mass to see if the fairy can take them or not. Because Stunk’s dick is 16.5 cm (6.5 inches) he has a choice of two fairies and they’re both fat (well I would be out. (Corbin): Why how big is your dick? (Nitsuj): None of business, but way more than 6.5 inches, I know that much). Zel has a choice of 20 girls while the halfling can have his choice of any girl (not sure if that’s a win or loss on their part). As for Crim, nobody can take him (scene here: https://youtu.be/txiOii1s39E. Again, not sure if that’s a win or loss on his part. (Baron): I view it as a win. Crim’s been holding out on us). We get their reviews where Stunk gives the fairy a 3 (the measuring service was the part for him). Zel gave them a 7 pointing out how good their mana was, how new the experience was for him, but at the same time admitted it left him unsatisfied. The halfling gave them a 9 saying how good it felt and how nice they smelled. Crim gives them a 0 (for obvious reasons) and because they didn’t refund him on the entry fee which means he was pretty much scammed. In the second half of the episode election time is around the corner with each species having its own party. As of right now, the government is run by the orc party who have 3 principles: Low taxes, low prices on food, and fornicate to your heart’s content (God bless the orcs). Stunk, Zel, and Crim get approached by a demon working in PR who wants to improve the images of demons. It turns out demons aren’t the most popular species in the world because of their wicked ways (in fact, they’re so unpopular that next to the undead they’re the most unpopular species to marry. Yeah, they’re worst snow women and fire monsters). The PR demon has heard about their reviews and wants them to review a demon brothel hoping that their review will improve the image of demons (oh it will. In a very sexual manner). Crim decides to sit this one out (Baron: Shame. Demon and angel banging. That’s some forbidden hot shit right there), so this just leaves Stunk, Zel, the beastman, and a male demon (get the feeling the male demon might be bias). As the group heads to the demon brothel they get distracted by the hypnotic big tits of the minotaurs (*Corbin gets a snowbleed and passes out* (Nitsuj): Man down. (Baron): He’s got a fetish for minotaurs). Because of this, the group decides to bail on the demon brothel and instead hit up the minotaur brothel for a review. They all give the minotaurs good scores with the highest score being a 8 and the lowest a 6. They praise them for their amazing breast that shoot out delicious milk, how submissive they are, their sexy butts, and how new the experience felt for them. The only real downside was the beastman saying how the milk upset his stomach.

In episode 3 the guys go to a gender-swap brothel where they transform into girls and have some lesbian play (yeah, this was the episode that broke the camel’s back). While they wait for their girls to arrive, we actually find out that there’s a female service as well where females can turn into guys and do it with other guys (well that’s interesting information. It’s very rare for animes like this to address gays or give us insight into how they fit into this world). In fact, they have male brothels for females to go to as well. The girls arrive where Stunk chooses an elf (the man likes his women old I guess), Zel chooses a slime girl (Baron: Oh~ nice. Did I ever tell you about my college experience with a slime girl? (Nitsuj): You did, and I still have nightmares), the halfling chooses another halfling (eww~, loli and shota sex), and Crim chooses a hyena girl (Corbin: Careful, she’s a heckler). Stunk gives the experience a 5 saying that he wasn’t all that interested in the idea but recommends it for people who want that girl experience (you might pick up a few tips as well). The halfling gives it a 4 saying you’ll experience things you never could as a man (yeah he doesn’t say much, but if you had a vibrator shoved up your ass I think you wouldn’t say much either). Zel gives it an 8 saying how much he loved the experience (Corbin: I imagine. He had a slime girl. Which reminds me of my experience back in college. (Nitsuj): No! Baron’s story already gave me nightmares and I don’t even want to think about what you’re depraved experience will do to me). As for Crim, he gave it a 9. It turns out that female hyenas have dicks as well (in fact, the females are more well-endowed then the male and are actually the more dominant ones in their species. Well this explains so much in the Lion King) which means that Crim got to know what it’s like to be penetrated by a dick and he describes it as a fantastic experience (scene here: https://youtu.be/Wwz0fgHQ5yY).

In the first half of episode 4 we start off with Stunk, Zel, and Brooz (the beastman) dead in the streets with Crim crying over their dead bodies (and all this time I was betting on them dying from something else). We rewind a couple of hours earlier where the guys come across an all succubus orgy for a cheap price. The guys find this suspicious but decide to check it out anyway where we see the succubus are low-ranking succubus (Baron: Oh shit their doomed. (Nitsuj): Why what’s the problem? (Corbin): Low-ranking succubus are straight up sluts. Unlike a regular succubus that has class and charm, a low-ranking succubus only cares about sex. They’re main goal is to satisfy themselves and nobody else. Whatever you want to do gets thrown out the window, you’re just there for the ride and you don’t get to control anything. (Nitsuj): Wow, I had no idea low-ranking succubus were like that. What’s even more shocking is that you two stay away from them. (Corbin): We may be depraved perverts, but even we got standards). After the succubus insult Stunk and the others, they all head in with Crim being the smart one of the bunch (as always) and sitting this one out. I’m not sure how long they were in there (it had to at least been 30 minutes) but they came so close to dying that they were practically passed out (https://youtu.be/fNsrvnHJdco?t=135). According to Brooz, if not for the arrival of the orcs (Corbin: Ohh~, there’s gonna be a lot of bacon tonight) they would have died (oh my God! The death by snu-snu joke actually made it into an anime). Each one gives the experience a low ranking of 0s and 1, and it took them 3 weeks to recover (scene here: https://youtu.be/z-7qR3_G4dI). In the second half of the episode, Crim gets asked by his landlord to retrieve some volcanic manastones. Since it’ll be cheaper to get it directly from the source, Crim journeys to the lava lands with Stunk and Zel as his escort. While there, they take in the local sights and visit a brothel where you can eat some BBQ off a Salamandra (what is this, a Japanese buffet? (Baron: Hey, don’t knock it till you try it). After the guys get done eating and bringing her to the edge, she’s ready for the main course, but Stunk and Zel say no as they’ll burn to death (Baron: Looks like this is a job for me, I’m heat resistant). Luckily for her, Crim has heat resistance so she has some fun with him (I’m surprise there’s no heat resistant potion). Crim gives the experience a 9 saying how heated up and passionate the Salamandra was, how there was never a dull moment, and was still able to taste the BBQ off her body to fill himself up nutritionally and carnally (scene here: https://youtu.be/khP0ITPhKtE).

Episodes 5-8

Episode 5 starts with the guys receiving a request to review a cyclops brothel. They accept the request (the client is paying for it so why not?) and go to the brothel where the receptionist asks what cup size they’re looking for. Of course they’re not talking about breast, but instead contact lens size. Apparently, the size of the eye matters to a cyclops because that’s where they’re magic abilities come from (Baron: Bigger the eye the bigger the power. Just like my flame. (Nitsuj): In that case your power seems pretty low. I mean I’ve seen your flame and- *Baron opens his lantern unleash a fraction of his flame’s true power which is so bright that Nitsuj is blinded by it’s greatness and falls out of his seat* (Nitsuj): Jesus! That flame could burn down a mansion! It’s like a mini sun. How the hell are you containing it in that lantern? (Baron): Custom made to hide my true power). Each guy picks their girl and gives their opinion overall where they give them an average score. Stunk, Zel, and Crim gave them 7s saying how the girls were self-conscious about their eye so those with smaller eyes were more submissive (Corbin: And have big breast), had rich mana, and even liked how pretty the eye was. The halfling on the other hand gave them a 4 saying how there was a lot of eye play which wasn’t his thing (I don’t think it’s anybody’s thing) and said that their big eye was almost comical (basically if you have an eye fetish this is the monster for you). After they post their review, we see that the client who hired them was a female cyclops with a tiny eye. She’s in love with a human and was self-conscious about her eye and how a human viewed it, and since Stunk says the size of the eye doesn’t matter to a human she’s overjoyed. In the second half, Zel is hungry for some mushrooms (Corbin: Oh~ a man a culture I see), so him, Stunk, Crim, and a forest fairy named Lulou go to a myconid forest to get mushrooms and some myconids as well. They reach the brothel where they’re greeted by the receptionist (who’s honestly the fairy receptionist if she was a mushroom) and gives the guys girls who perfectly match up with their fetishes (wow, I think I just found my new favorite monster girl. (Corbin): There’s a reason why Mario likes mushrooms). They each give their girls a high score with the lowest being an 8 and the highest a 9 (scene here: https://youtu.be/yYdtyIiGO9o).

The first part of episode 6 is nothing short of hilarious. So the guys along with Kanchal (the halfling. They finally said his name. If they said it earlier, I wasn’t paying attention. . .for obvious reasons) go a golem brothel where they get to make their own doll from scratch to have sex with (Corbin: It’s a Built-A-Bitch workshop. In fact, they even make the joke for us. (Baron): Don’t you just love it when an anime is on the same wavelength as you?). Now when I say from scratch I literally mean from scratch. You choose everything from their hair color/style, eye color, body, outfit, and even their personality can be chosen by you (you’re essentially given free rein to make your dream girl anyway you want). Sadly, the guys find out their not the best craftsmen and have trouble creating a girl, but Kanchal being a master thief and craftsman comes through for them as he makes an exact replica of Meidri a birdmaid at the tavern Crim works at as well as the comedic foil to Stunk and the others as she finds their exploits disgusting and stupid. Kanchal makes a copy for the others, with each one giving their doll a different personality from sex harlot to loving girl to masochist to innocent virgin. Stunk, Zel, and Crim give the experience an 8 telling guys to bring a craftsman with them while Kanchal gives it a 10 (wow, our first 10. Too bad they really downplay it). Meidri finds out about her sex doll (or dolls in this case) and beats the living hell out of the four (Scene here: https://youtu.be/aR2uXVLClT8. (Baron): Note to self, never tell anyone you made a sex doll out of them and used it). In the second part of the episode, the tavern has become overrun with the spirits of darkness who are on a holiday. Hoping to escape the darkness and see the light, the guys go to a will o’ wisp brothel where the girls are hot and they shine like the morning sun on a hot summer’s day (Corbin: Better bust out the shades and look into the light because it’s beautiful). Unlike the other brothels where the guys got some privacy with their girl, the will o’ wisp brothel is pretty much a free for all brothel. Because the will o’ wisp shine so brightly if they’re in a closed off room the customer can’t see what’s going on, so they have to do it out in the opening where everybody can see you and you can see them (so if you’re someone who can’t perform under pressure this isn’t the place for you). The only real upside is you can do it with a bunch of different girls at the same time assuming they’re not busy with another customer (this is pretty much an orgy). Stunk gives the experience a 7 saying that it’s not for everyone but he did enjoy having sex with all the girls who were cute and knew what they were doing. Zel gives it a 5 saying he didn’t like being out in the open where customers could come and go as they please and didn’t like how they kept charging you after every 20 minutes (oh wow that does suck. (Corbin: Yeah. It should at least be every 30 minutes. I’m not a machine, I need more than 20 minutes to get my snowballs off. You can’t rush an artist when he’s trying to make a masterpiece). Kanchal gives it a 5 as well and instead of ragging on the brothel’s system like the others he instead talks about the personality of the girls. He compliments them on being great but considered them to be dense. Crim gave it a 0 saying he hated the system so much that he was too embarrassed to think and pretty much forgot the whole experience.

In episode 7 they introduce the first fetish that I have to admit is a complete turn off for me. It’s Meidri’s time of the month where she lays an unfertilized eye (Corbin: Yeah, even I have to admit this isn’t something I’m into). As the guys talk about it they become interested in seeing the process for educational purposes (and not because you’re exploring a new fetish). So the guys along with their lamia friend Narugami go to an eye laying brothel (oh my God, this is actually a thing?) where species who lay eggs lay eggs in front of an audience and have them be auctioned off (the more I learn about this fetish the more turned off I get). We see that the audience is full of reptilian and merman who get off on this and see various girls go on stage and lay eggs. Stunk and Crim gives the experience a 3 out of 10 and even Zel gave it a 4 out of 10 not really getting into it. Narugami on the other hand loved this experience and gave it a 9 out of 10 (Baron: Obviously, he’s a pervert. (Nitsuj: Said the fan with the fruit and vegetable fetish. (Baron): It’s only a fetish if I get off on it). After the credits, we get a popularity contest between the girls. Coming in at number 9, Salamandra (Baron: Oh, that meat is Grade A5. I don’t eat a lot of meat, but that is the only meat I want). At number 8, the dagon (Corbin: Can’t beat those tentacles. (Nitsuj): I’ve heard they’re better at messages). Number, 7 the minotaur and their huge chugs (that’s where buttermilk comes from). Coming in at 6th, 5th, and 4th we have the hyena girl (Corbin: You can play catch with her), birdmaid (Baron: Music to my ears), and cyclops (beauty is in the eye of the beholder and sexiness is the pants of the pervert). Coming in 3rd and 2nd we have the catgirl who took Crim’s virginity (Baron: This anime certainly has more cat lovers than dog lovers. (Nitsuj): Do you think they play a lot of Nekopara?), and the elf (Corbin: Don’t care how old they are. If they got the looks and personality, I’m all for it). Finally, at number one we have the fairy receptionist (Corbin: Woah! (Baron): Shocker! (Nitsuj): I can’t believe none of the myconids made the list).

So episode 8 starts off on an interesting note. The guys have captured some ladies and are about to torture them (Baron: Hey~ I didn’t know this anime was gonna go down this path. Let me get my tools. (Nitsuj): You have tools? (Baron): Yes! I like to bind, I like to gag, I like to whip and- I’m not taking anymore questions. This is a judgement free zone! The Golden Pumpkin isn’t taking anymore questions, he’s taking action. I am the Golden Pumpkin). It turns out the guys are in a roleplaying brothel this time where they play as the underlings of the evil boss who gets to torture their captives. The girls are all acting, not in any real danger, and you have a wide selection to choose from such as the strong female knight, the sweet sister, captured princess, etc. After your done role-playing, you select your captive, go into a private room, and then begin torturing them. Stunk gives the place a 7 out 10 saying he did like the variety and stories of each captive there, so it did make him want to come back for more fun. He does however, talk about having to take a shower before getting down to business which was a mood killer for him. Zel also gives it a 7 out of 10 saying the girls were good but didn’t like how the girls were random as well as their outfits (Corbin: I just call that variety). Kanchal gave it a 6 out of 10 saying that some of the girls are terrible actors. Since the girls aren’t in any real danger some of them don’t do a good job at playing along with the role-play (oh that’s boner killer. (Corbin): Yeah I’ll say. Don’t you hate it when girls don’t play along with your sexual desire?). As for Crim, he gives it a 5 out of 10 as he didn’t really find it all that enjoyable and argues that the end experience is the same as any other brothel (Baron: True. But it’s the journey you take to reach that ending). In the second half of the episode the guys go to a pure succubus brothel (forget those other girls from episode 4. These are the succubus you want to be with). This place is nothing short of perfect. They have all types of girls that match your preference and the prices are reasonable. After some sexy visual representation of Crim having the time of his life we go to the scores. The guys give them 6s and 7s saying that while the service was top notch there is one drawback to doing it with a real succubus, they drain you completely. By the time you get done doing it with them you’ll be so tired that you won’t be able to get it up for a number of days (well on the plus side if you’re going on a long quest, this is the place to go. Scene here: https://youtu.be/Gq5XjDT7Hno).

Episodes 9-12

Episode 9 opens up with Zel, Stunk, and Brooz on a quest. The three are delivery furniture to Count Delivel a vampire who seems to be an old acquaintance of Zel (elves and zombies do have a lot in common. Live long, great fighters, smart, and come across as stuck up). The four then go to a brothel that specializes in the undead (Baron: Oh~ necrophilia. (Corbin): That takes me back. (Nitsuj): Good God, how many species did you guys do it with? (Corbin): What species didn’t we do it with? (Baron): We had an exciting college life). Stunk chooses the cute receptionist who was a zombie. He gives her a 6 saying he didn’t like her smell or her cold body (Corbin: The smell can be a problem, but the cold body never bothered me. (Baron): I set my girl on fire. She liked it). Zel goes with the jiangshi (Chinese zombie) and also gave her a 6 saying she didn’t really do much with him, she just laid there and took it. Brooz did it with a skeleton where all he did was lick her bones (any other day I would find this sentence strange). He gave her a 3 out of 10. Delivel’s partner was a vampire and gave her an 8 saying they don’t have the stench or temperature as any of the other undeads, but they’re loyal to the one who turned them vampires and will refuse to mess around with other clients (then what hell is the point of you being in a brothel? Live at your lord’s mansion, invite the other vampires he turned and have an orgy. Scene here: https://youtu.be/Vm9maigHumY). Of course, Crim had his fun as he went to a brothel by himself (Baron: Our little angel is growing up. *Starts to get tearing eyed* I promise myself I wouldn’t cry). He went to the magical lotion brothel for animated slime action (Corbin: Boy, that’s a mouth full). At this brothel a witch will use her magic to turn a special liquid into a slime-like substance to pleasure you with (why do I get the feeling this brothel and the slime brothel are enemies?). Crim gives the experience a 9 out 10 saying how pleasurable it was and how the clean up only took seconds so you won’t leave there sticky (scene here: https://youtu.be/Aki-Q1ZGN8U). Crim reveals that he heard about this brothel through the word of other adventurers who are doing the same thing Stunk and Zel are doing (they’re ripping off your idea just like everyone ripped off my idea to post anime review blogs online. I’ll sue them). After coming to the quick realization that they don’t have a monopoly in this line of work, they decide to read what everyone else thought about some of places they visited. One place that catches their attention is this one brothel which is run by a female porn director (take that feminist) where the guys who went there all gave it a 10 out of 10. They want to check it out, but the brothel is in the magic metropolis which is far away from their location (Corbin: Where there’s a boner there’s a way). Luckily, Kanchel comes in with a request to go to the magic metropolis and the guys jump at the chance to join him.

In episode 10 our perverts arrive in the magic metropolis where we see that the perfect brothel is a doll clone of this busty archmage named Demia. The guys each get a clone of her and are free to do anything with her for 3 days (except have sex in public. Show some class. (Baron): Still, 3 days is a lot you can accomplish). At the end of those 3 days the doll disappears ending what Stunk and others considered a great experience. Not only was the doll great at sex, but it could cook you meals, teach you magic, down with anything fetish you had (Corbin: Boiiiiing~), and honestly felt like you were had a girlfriend. Stunk and the guys agree that this place was definitely a 10/10. A great experience that was out of this world and perfect in every way for the right price (scene here: https://youtu.be/-Ql1IOKXExg). At the end of the episode, a hot demon walks into the bar and ask Mediri for a raw egg.

The first half of episode 11 starts with Stunk and the others returning and going to the tavern where they get confronted by this demon who turns out to be an incubus. He’s mad about the negative reviews the guys gave to some of the brothels, so he went to them himself and gave them all a perfect 10 (uh~, pardon?). Yeah, he gives every place he goes to a 10, but the main problem is his reviews aren’t really that helpful. He doesn’t talk about the experience, he just talks about how lovely each girl was and that’s it (Baron: How the hell is that helpful? That’s like me having sex with that Salamandra and giving her a 10 because she’s cute. At best they’re a 9). Give Stunk and the others credit, they each had a different viewpoint and never once said the girls were ugly (Corbin: Well except for Stunk when he reviewed the old lady from episode 1). They were more focused on the experience and whether it was enjoyable or not which is what they’re patrons want to know (this incubus is basically just saying I watched this anime and liked it, 10/10. Okay that’s cool, but why did you like it? What made it so special to you?). In the end, the incubus gets stabbed by an oni girl because he cheated on her but he doesn’t die because incubus have 2 hearts (Corbon: The second one dangles between his legs). The guys get left with his pointless reviews and just rip them apart as they’re useless (what the hell was that all about?). In the second half of the episode the guys go to an alochauns brothel (basically drunk fairies. (Baron): We knew an alochaun back in college. That guy knew how to drink and party) and do a review while they were drunk off their asses. Stunk, Zel, and Kanchel were so drunk that they’re reviews made no sense. Thankfully, Crim was with them and was the only sober one there. In his review he talks about how everyone and the girls get drunk to the point of losing consciousness and every time they touch a girl they get charged for it from the receptionist who’s the only sober one there (this place is a rip-off). He gave the place a 5/10. In their drunken state, Stunk, Zel, and Kanchel went through all of their fortune, so they began taking on quests to earn it all back where they unknowingly saved the world from certain destruction (they really are talented adventurers).

In the final episode Stunk, Zel, Brooz, and Kanchal finally go to review a demon brothel where they get top service thanks to Demon No. 2’s card which acts as a contract. We learn that demons love to make and be bound by contracts (a contract fetish). Once a contract is made then the demon will make whatever the contract was come true (so basically, if the demon cabinet won office then they would be bound to make all of their promises come true. Holy shit, it’s like getting a president without any corruption or lies). Stunk, Zel, and Brooz give the demons a 7/10 while Kanchal gives them an 8/10. In the second half of the episode the guys ring in the new year by going to the girl they gave their highest score to (well I know where I’m going). Naturally, they’re not going back to the magic metropolis since it’s too far, so instead they’ll hit up the local joints. Unfortunately, everyone is packed thanks to their reviews (it’s not the score that matters, it’s the honest feedback). Luckily, the fairy receptionist comes to their aid by sending them to a recommended brothel which is a dream-eater brothel (Baron: Hey, that’s pretty cool. (Corbin): Yeah, I never thought about them) where the girls shapeshift into their favorite girl and they have dream sex. Stunk, Zel, and Kanchal give the experience a 9/10 while Brooz and Crim give it a 7/10. While both of them enjoyed the experience, the downsides are it’s a dream (granted it’s a very nice dream but still a dream). You’re not making any new memories with your favorite girl and if you come here often you’ll lose points with your favorite girl. Also, it’s still kind of sad that it’s a dream and not really them, so I see where Brooz and Crim are coming from. After that the anime just wraps up on a good note with nothing really major happening.

Final Score

Okay, I don’t care if I come across as a pervert, I’m going to say it, this anime was great. There’s really not that much to say about it as it is self-explanatory. While the characters aren’t deep, go through any character development, or even get their stories resolved in some cases that’s not really the main point of this anime. It’s about a bunch of guys going out to a brothel, having a good time, and then sharing their experience in the hopes that it will help someone else looking for a good time. This whole series made me laugh and I had a good time watching every episode as they present a species that I liked or didn’t think about before until now. I loved how each one had a different perspective and experience as well as their passion and love for what they do. It honestly reminds me of me and my reviews. I just have so much fun writing these reviews, sharing them with you guys, and I hope that they bring you joy in some way. The animation is good. Where the anime really shines is with all the great character designs as there are a lot of characters, we see throughout the anime they all have great designs. Whether it be Crim’s androgynous shota design, Meidri’s bird design, Elza the hyena girl, the myconids, and many more.

Final Score

The final score for Ishuzoku Reviewers 7/10. If you’re not in to lewd and fanservice anime that borders on the line of hentai then I would say skip this anime. If you’re okay with this stuff and looking for a good laugh, then check this anime out. You’ll have a blast watching it, you’ll enjoy the various species they review and what they have to say about them. Will there be a second season of this anime? I would love to see a second season but I’m not gonna hold my breath and I don’t think they can top this gem of an anime. This was a truly a one of a kind anime that nobody can mimic. It was actually better than the source material and it stuck to it’s guns even when they got flagged by both the west and their home country.
