    witty and inventive

    in its own genre -- hentai -- this is one of the better ones with respect to the plot and dialogue. Quite witty but not very explicit (still better than most). The goddess character is genuinely hot so you'll be glad that she gets it at the end of the episode 2. (there are episodes 1 & 2 on my tape). Refreshingly, not all the erotic scenes are rape and violence, i was glad to find some depictions of consensual sex, which is somehow so rare within the genre.

    As usual, get the subtitled version if you want to be on the safe side censorship-wise: dubbed versions tend to suffer more in the cutting room, although i did not check this one specifically. As for quirky japanese voice-overs mentioned in another comment: i didn't notice that, maybe because I like the conventional cheesiness just as some people like Ed Wood's movies. The female voices are high-pitched but what do you expect?

    All in all: not as good as La Blue Girl or other genre favorites but near the top. Would really like to see the further episodes (if they in fact exist).

    animae craziness for adults

    In this Japanese animated presentation, a big-breasted, ethereal Goddess of Love and her impish servant visit Earth in two half-hour segments, helping humans with their love lives. Her reasons for this are kind of hokey and basically trivial-- something to do with the position of the moon. Basically, it's an hour long romp featuring plenty of weird, not-too-racy sex scenes (compared to some other hardcore animae porn thats out there anyway), and some laughs that appeal to both the high and low brow. In the first segment, a young girl shuns the love of a gawky suitor in favor of an older female doctor with sinister intentions. What ensues? An attempted murder and a mystical change of gender, of course. In the second segment, an overly shy and withdrawn young boy cannot get over his fear of intimacy and women in general. What ensues this time? A surreal and funny parody of Nintendo games and a scene in which the teenage boy in transformed into the water in his girlfriend's bathtub. Annoying animae cliches are all over this movie: irritating voice overs (where do they find these people, and why do the voices never seem to match the characters' personalities?), city scenes where everyone looks caucasian but the writing on all the the billboards in the backgrounds are in Japanese, and those weird freeze frame action shots. But there is plenty of wity campy and sexy humor in "Rei Rei"that makes the movie an interesting and unique standout in regards to animae and animation in general.
