Plots(1)
Hachimitsu Academy, a prestigious, historically all-girls school, has finally become co-ed. Average teen, Kiyoshi, is one of five boys to enroll. What he doesn’t know is that the school is clandestinely ruled by an Underground Student Council of ruthless, cruel, totally hot female students! And when the boys get caught peeping, they’re sent to the school’s prison, which is run by the brutally seductive warden, who also happens to be the VP of the Underground Student Council. After the boys are forced endure manual labor, whips, and chains, they’ll be left wishing they were locked up with actual criminals! (Anime Ltd)

I'm getting used to thematically putting on something thematically appropriate in order to observe the pre-Christmas peace and quiet: Last year Detroit Metal City, this year Prison School. As with DMC, I must score highly and point out the creators’ absolute lack of inhibition and boundaries. Prison School shifts from 1st gear to 5th in the space of a minute, and I don't think even Krauser would be quite prepared for the tsunami of inappropriateness and unholy profanity that the main boy band revels in. All the central characters are perverted, sadistic, or masochistic (or all of the above combined) freaks who invent ever newer ways to fuel their next perverted escapades. And it freaking works! If someone were filming me watching this, they'd first see me yawning all over the place (whether in the uncensored or more censored places), then covering my face, then muttering "No way" louder and louder, then eventually roaring with uncontrollable laughter. The opening episodes about the start of their punishment are insanely creative, helped along by the perversely charming qualities of the performers (the literally self-sacrificing coward Gakuto, the perpetually unhinged Hana, or the principal walking nearby as a joke), the caricature faces, and the absurd coincidences that leave you wanting more and more! Unfortunately, all these excesses get rather stale in the middle of the series, and you find that not all the characters are given sufficient time and depth (like Andrew, Joe, and even Shingo a bit), so after a while they're as neglected as Gakuto's bathroom toys. I would never have believed that I'd end up being indifferent to the frequent upskirt camera shots of properly sweaty female genitalia, and frankly I stopped rooting for the guys in their prison break because, ironically, I enjoyed their bondage the most. The almost bland story was hurtling towards its supposed climax from the very first urination, dragging on like Andrew's hair at the end, and I was flipping out like the vice president when her zipper didn't work; I started wishing for the finish line sooner than I'd unexpectedly hoped, because the anime didn't have much to offer except for the indomitable and all-defining question: Are you into oppai or asses? After all, this is not a question to be answered lightly... nai?! A properly petrified 3 stars.

The following review contains SPOILERS. So the very first episode is pretty hardcore. Some young boys start stalking girls; although these are not just any boys, these are perverts of the highest order. Putting a group like this in a girls' school is a really crazy idea, and what happens in this show is bound to be somewhat masochistic at the very least. Well, I guess it is sado/masochistic, and that is just the heel-licking scene. Plus, to make matters worse, in the second episode, they go even harder with the "golden shower" and that is still just the beginning. I consider this anime series and releasing a show like this in general to be quite a revolutionary step; I take it as pushing the boundaries of ecchi in a completely new direction that will teeter on the edge of poor taste for many people. Puritanical prudes will curse this work, and deviants or perhaps more open-minded people are going to jump for joy because it is fresh, original, and really powerful! If I, a person who criticizes stereotypes, especially boring tropes in the field of erotic anime series, gave this a bad rating, then I would "not be seeing past the end of my nose" and so on that principle alone, I cannot award less than three stars. Besides, I think I have already given some good reasons why it deserves three stars at least; however, I am going to add a few more. Besides being groundbreaking in the genre of erotic anime series, in my opinion, this show is also quite amusing. Sure, most of the time, the jokes are super dumb, almost like the movie "American Pie"; however, I do not mind that much. If I could give four stars to the movie Kevin & Perry Go Large (even though I saw it years ago when I was in my teens), I guess that says something about my approach to this kind of comedy, so even though I am embarrassed, I admit I found it entertaining. Another important aspect that I think is good is the characters. The main female protagonist is basically a normal hormone-ridden teenager (which is unique because ninety percent of current anime protagonists would die of nosebleeds in this setting, others would feel they had been wronged, and still others would try to start a revolution and overthrow the female leadership at school). However, there are a lot of complete perverts who are not just deviants but also have sensitive sides. In this anime series, they express that someone who likes sumo cannot be a bad person. I, for one, say you cannot be a bad person if you like ants. Most of the girls are also very interesting in principle. After the second episode, I thought that we would probably gradually learn why they are the way they are. Some theories are already coming to mind. For example, when I watch the relationship between the president and her father. Plus, I am becoming more and more interested in the developing yet very strange relationship between Hana and Kiyoshi, which is incredibly original for an anime series. On the one hand, it is creepy, and on the other hand, it is probably the most interesting "love story" I have ever seen. If I were to sum it up, I could basically understand everyone giving it five stars, although again, I am not going to join in. Awarding this show five stars would declare that I agree with all the insane stuff in the show and that I enjoyed it. However, I cannot say that I enjoyed everything, as some scenes are too extreme even for my taste, and I struggled to watch. So, I am going to declare myself narrow-minded and simply award this show four stars with the caveat that I am probably not going to award more than that, although, on the whole, it convinced me that it does not deserve less either because as I keep saying here, it is really unique. As for the second season, if there is one, I am going to watch it because I already know why the word "Medusa" appeared so often on the discussion boards, although I have no idea yet why "Uroboros" appears there. 8/10.
