Urotsukidoji II: The Legend of Demon Womb

he only hentai anime I've ever watched in its entirety, and the first (and so far only) one to be reviewed here, Urotsukidoji is almost as unwatchable as it is unspellable.  My review scores are not kind, and if anything, they are overstated. This is a truly awful movie.

Some of those categories aren't entirely accurate since this is a cartoon. Anime, as they call it. It's also, by far, the worst anime I've ever seen. To be more accurate, this is Hentai, AKA porn anime, though like most types of Japanese porn, they can't show actual porn stuff, like human genitalia, actual thrusting in and out, etc. Some Japanese porn avoids this by pixeling out the naughty bits, which seems ridiculous to me. As if you can't still tell exactly what's happening. Other porn puts small blocks over parts of the genitals, which seems even weirder. Like it's okay to show a spurting dick (in a cartoon) but if a woman is sucking it you've got to put a black block over the exact point her tongue is touching it. Go look at the Manga preview images on JList if you want to see this sort of foolishness in action.

The way this unspellable movie handles the porn aspects is by editing and camera angles. They never actually show the things they can't show, but they show everything but. The hugely-erect and misshapen demon cock is seen driving towards the shadow-concealed vagina of the bleeding and horrified woman, but just as it touches the camera cuts to a long shot so the penetration is hidden by one of her legs, or his cape, or whatever. You can still see the bodies moving, the groans and screams, the squishy sound effects, etc. You just can't see the actual 1% of porn that's banned by the Japanese censorship laws. And as a result, it's far dirtier than just showing normal sex would be, since they have to be creative and that leads to tentacle rape (since they're just tentacles or pseudopods that happen to look almost exactly like a human male's penis, they don't have to be bleeped out as much) and constant female degradation and torture and school girl fetish exploitation and so on.  These are all popular blog and anime discussion topics; why the Japanese sex stuff is so weird and twisted and faux-violent, if the censorship laws have driven it that way over time, etc. I'm not going to go into them today, though.

As for this movie itself, it's got some cool concepts; Nazi mad scientists, demon summoning powered by the magical energy of female orgasm via gigantic rape machines, invisible demons that can only be seen by their reflections, super powers via demon DNA, and much more. The problem, besides the basically reprehensible morality of it all, is how boring and stupid the plot is, and how little sense it all makes. The characters are all stupid and utterly lacking in motivation or logic, all the dialogue is dreadful, and it's peppered with random supernatural things, rescuers from alternate dream worlds, etc. I first wrote about it a year ago, and said how Malaya and I got through 15 minutes before giving up in utter confusion and bemusement. We couldn't see getting through the rest of it without making it a drinking game, which of course means it's a movie that's only good enough to watch if you're drunk (or stoned, though since we don't do that, I didn't mention it as one of our options).

I ended up watching it myself, on a day when Malaya was gone, and I only got through it by watching it in 20 minute chunks while eating, and then taking a break for a few hours to forget just how horribly stupid it was. I could not have watched the entire 90 minutes at once, at least not in my right mind.

Afterwards, utterly confused by what the hell I'd just seen (since so much of the plot simply doesn't make any sense, with new characters appearing from nowhere, doing things that make no sense, and then vanishing) I searched around on the Internet until I found this review from someone who actually knows the first movie and knew why this one sucked and didn't make any sense. Here's a quick quote.

My complaints about Urotsukidoji #2 begin with the blatant disregard for the plot of #1. Kind of like Nagumo woke up the next day, forgot turning into a 100 foot demon and destroying the world, Akemi was no longer pregnant with the Cho'jin, and they happily woke from their beds, shrugged off their respective characters, developed quite nicely in #1, and turned into silly high school students who don't think of anything other than sex. Even were I to be able to forgive this, Amano Jyaku also has gotten himself a kitten girlfriend and also has lost his character, interest in the world beyond his girlfriend's you-know-what and apparently his mind. His sister, Nagumi, has changed to a giggling little girl from a strong several hundred year old character in #1. Someone please tell me what the point of a "sequel" is if the movie has nothing to do with the first - or someone please tell these writers what the word "sequel" means.

 

This one isn't recommended as Anime (virtually any well-known title you pick at random would be more enjoyable, and it's not any good as cartoon porn either, since every scene is a violent rape (even though half the females seem to be perfectly okay and have forgotten all about it 5 minutes later), and even if you get off on that sort of thing in a cartoon, none of the scenes go on long enough to get off on, if you see what I mean. They're 30 seconds, tops, and the few surreal consensual sex scenes aren't any longer. None of them are in any way erotic either, but that probably goes without saying.
