Feature Presentation:
Special thanks to Geneon Entertainment for sending a copy for a review for this site. This is not for kids! I think this series really pushing the limits how sexual a normal Anime it can go. You got it all, sexy females & lots of them, hot steaming nudity, big bouncy boobies to even something to do with a banana! Guys, you won't ever see bananas the same way again! However, even with all that, you still get a kick of laugher. Here we are, Yukinari is not your typical high school student. All his life, he has been bullied & abuse by girls because he is just shorter then your average guy. Because of that, he is afraid of females. It's so bad that he broke into rashes & faints when anyone of them touches him, even his best friend Kirie. I feel sorry for him, but his pain is how laughter, right? One day, he accidently got teleported to a world called Siren & meet a girl named Miharu. For some odd reasons, she doesn't tiggered his little allergy! However, the problem is, males are very rare in Siren & every female is out to get him. Finding a way home, Yukinari tried to get back to normal life, but somehow, everything seem to get worst. Miharu came along with him. By the way, I really do hate perverted guys! You will see why.
Video:
Geneon Entertainment did a very great job, again. I found no problem, the image are clear & the color looks perfect. There is some watermarks done for the introduction & ending credits (they are translated in English), but it wasn't done for the very first episode of this series. There is also a warning when you start the series about all the sexual contents & it's not for kids! Since all the episodes are on one single track on the DVD, there is no loading time or changing tracks when you move on to the next episode. Each episode is split into 5 parts: introduction, part A, part B & ending! There is no preview though. I do note that you can skip the warnings & logos in the beginning using the "Menu" button on your remote.
Dubbing: English:
The English dubbing is well done, down to even the naughty parts. Cute & it does match the part, though Miharu is a little different. It's about 85% of the original Japanese.
Audio 01: English 2.0:
No problem found.
Audio 02: Japanese 2.0:
No problem found.
Subtitle:
Geneon Entertainment have selected a great font, easy to read, though a little small. They use green for the introduction & ending themes, white for any text subtitling & yellow for the dialogues. One track is for the sign subtitling & the other one is for the Japanese dialogue. I might note that every odd numbered episodes, the intro & ending subtitles are in English, while the even numbered episodes are in Japanese original text. The first episode have extra subtitles for the credits, since the opening & ending are original Japanese credits.
Menu Option:
The menu is pretty simple. There you see Miharu looking up smiling with her school uniform, along with bubbles flowing next to her with clips from the episodes in this volume. There is the "Play All", a selection of the 4 episodes, "Screen Access", "Set Up" & "Extras". The background music is the opening theme, which you will hear in EPS 02. However, it's only for the main menu, there is no music playing in the other screen section.
DVD Extras:
There isn't much extras, just the non-credit opening & ending, along with the original Japanese opening which started off in EPS 02. There is also an art gallery of the design of the characters, which is nice to see. That's about it.
Packaging:
It's a very colorful cover & quite sexy. You get to see all the girls that seem to be chasing Yukinari, including Miharu & Kirie. However, there is two girls there that you only see them for a brief moment in EPS 01. In the back, you get some screenshots from the episodes in this volume, except two of them, which I can't find it. The insert has the same image as the cover, along with a list of the episodes & the upcoming volume releases. All this to match with a white DVD case. On the DVD disc itself, it's the same as the cover, with a little lace pattern around it.
PC Viewing:
Watching it on the PC is the same as watching it on the TV. Very clean, no problem at all, very little pixel (little squares popping in & out), both normal mode & full screen mode. The sound is just great. The episodes are place on one single track as you play the episodes, so loading time is really small. You can fast forward to the beginning to the lend with one move on your mouse! Like on your regular DVD player, you can skip the warnings & logos when you load the disc, just use the "menu" option to go to the menu screen.
Overall DVD Rating:
I feel sorry for Yukinari, but he is also lucky at the same time. I still want to see what happen next. If you want something really naughty, but hilarious, this might fit your bill. Again, this isn't for kids, so don't let them watch it!
