Idol Fight Suchie-Pai 2

So I am in a quest of finding the worst anime this database says it has. Most of them are OVAs from the 80 to 2000s or 3 minute shorts from this decade. I stumbled across Idol Fight Suchie Pai and honestly... WHAT MAKES THIS THING SO "HORRENDOUS"?

The story of of Suchie Pai is about these random female beings with superpowers that must defeat a cat lady that is making chaos everywhere but they hide their identities in the society they are. You can find your magical girl, a bunny alien, a cyborg, an innocent maid that becomes a devil girl, a girl that has ... telekinesis.

The story is simple but again it is one of those short stories that go to the point, you have action, you have some comedy and nice looking visuals. Yeah they don't explain completely why are they fighting for or the reason for how the world is having these mystical manifestations but again it isn't stupid with what they are showing us.

The characters are tropes, you have your easy going girl, your tomboyish girl, your cute and I like everything cute girl and more anime girl cliche characteristics that you can imagine but they do the job. They don't shovel to the face their unidimenstional traits every single time until you get it.

With the art sorry to be bias but damn the 90s animation and characters designs are the best for me. They are wonderful to look at, that combination of dark palettes with the bright colors works perfectly. The backgrounds are so well made. This art style is simply great and the animation is smooth and clear in every shot.

Sound is okayish in most parts. The tracks used are good but not memorable, they work as they intended but the melodies won't get stuck in your head and the ending song is nice, but again is your cute ending song.

My conclusion on Idol Fighter Suchi Pai, it is one of those OVAs of the 90s if you want to see how was the animation back in those days. The story doesn't have any massive plot and makes you say that is outstanding but it is a fun ride that doesn't drag with the themes and ideas they want to share and also I hope that this is NOT one of those cases where the show is bad because of the English Dub.

Thanks for taking time in reading this review, Sorry for any english errors I don't speak english as my main language. Take care in whatever you do and see you around.

Another obscure single-episode OVA from the 90s, which I can't help but love. Honestly I wasn't expecting much when I saw the thumbnail, but then the description said it was also about mahjong (?) so I figured it was going to be whacky.

Boy was I right: magical girls, violence, torture, comedy, fan service, and a constant wtf vibe. So yup, forget about a coherent story, but look past that and it is quite entertaining and surprising.

Artstyle and animation are also pretty good for such a short OVA, with that classic 90s aesthetic that still looks great. Pacing might feel a bit sluggish, so I ... recommend watching shows of this era at a higher speed. It can make them much more enjoyable, try it!

Welcome back to another exciting episode of "This actually exists"! Back in the 1980s, erotic games or "Eroge" on the PC were very popular in Japan. I previously covered this topic in my review of ADV's early comedy Dragon Knight. The Japanese PC-88 model could produce 8 bit graphics like the original NES, but didn't have any qualms about being family friendly. You want want 8 bit lewd lolis? You got 8 bit lewd lolis! Some of the most popular eroge games were strip poker and ESPECIALLY strip mahjong!

Idol Fighter was one of these strip mahjong games featuring original character designs from Kenichi Sonoda of ... Gunsmith Cats fame! If you won a round of Mahjong, you got to see an 8 bit scan of a nude Sonoda drawing. Hooray! In the year 1996, a full 10 years later, this bare bones strip game was made into a single episode OVA. This OVA was then brought over to the United States, recieved an official dub, and was available to purchase on VHS and early DVD!

I want people to think about that for a second. The United States is the country where in 2019 we STILL have never recieved a dub of Bakemonogatari. It's one of the most popular anime in the world and yet every US dub studio turned up their noses at it. They all said "Meh, all this Japanese wordplay won't translate and nobody actually wants to see this shit!" America never recieved a dub or physical release of Ashita no Joe, Galactic Heroes, Tatami Galaxy, Heidi of the Alps, Anne of Green Gables, or half the series MAL worships. If you live in the US and want to see any of those series, the only thing you can do is pirate them online. Yet SOMEHOW, we recieved a dub and physical release of a strip mahjong game adaptation from 1986!

This anime doesn't really have a story. It has a bunch of disjointed scenes where girls fight each other and transform into bunny girls and cat girls. This anime was storyboarded and had pieces loosely pasted together, but I don't think it would be accurate to say this anime was "written". Of course the plot of the original game was just Mahjong. What's the plot of Chess? Go? Shogi? There is no plot.

Do you want to know what the worst part of all is? There isn't any nudity in this anime! The characters act like they're going to stip, but it never happens! People paid real, actual money for this DVD and it doesn't even serve as the most basic of jerkoff material. I remember going over to a friend's house in 1997 and he was SO proud of this naughty anime picture he found online! It was a shitty Jpeg transfer of a screenshot of the nude bathing scene from MSG: The 8th Mobile Suit Team. It probably took him 30 minutes to download and it looked like pixelated garbage, but you could sort of make out breasts. Even THAT is better than this anime! Fuck this anime and Fuck America!
