30-sai no Hoken Taiiku (Health education for 30 year olds) is a one sick show. There are so many wrong things in this anime that I don't even know where to start. This series focuses on the most widely talked about subject in human history - that being sex.
Okey fine, but the way they present it is just completely over the top. Like the image of 5 soldiers rubbing up and down againts an artillery piece which then fires a white canonball at a humonguous tissue. I'm never going to be able to look at artillery seriously ever again. That horrifying image is now burned in my head for good.
The story is as unbelievably crazy as it can only get. We have a 30 year old virgin dude (that's not the unbelievable part though) who has no luck with the ladies (that's also NOT unbelievable but read on). One day a silver haired god of sex comes down with the offer of helping him lose his virginity. Along with him comes his little sexually confused brother. As it turns out the gods will not leave until he loses his virginity.
That's when total craziness starts. At first the main character is lectured by the gods, what he should do and what he shouldn't do when around women. Okey, fair enough but then it just gets downright weird... the small god (probably 8 years old) offers himself for practice (WTF). Soon after the second god also offered his... urr backside to the main character. When the main character rejected the offers, the god's ass[hole] started sucking in everything in the room. At that point I stopped the video, ran to my bathroom and poured all the bleach I could find on my eyes. I then tried to erase that image from my eyes with a nail file. Upon failure, I realised that the only solution would be to set myself on fire... and that attempt also failed.
The series gets even more ridicilous from then on, we have a 100 something year old Virgin King who looks like Nappa from DBZ, a horny Japanese goddess who can only speak French and another 30 year old virgin (this time it's a woman) who's also looking forward to lose her virginity with the help of two goddesses.
In other words... I'm at a loss for words. Yes, this show is fucked up.
Apart from the corny story... art is pretty good, sound is nothing special really just your run-of-the-mill anime music.
Enjoyment... hmm, it depends. If you're the kind of person that enjoys watching gods lavishly show off their naked bottoms and see small boys offer themselfes to 30 year olds then this series is probably for you. However when you're looking for a more meaningful comedy then by all means stay away from this anime.
I have no idea why I've even watched it in the first place. read more

Health Lessons for 30 year olds is an odd show. Well, of course it is - it's suppose to be education and enjoyable. So I might be slightly insane for watching it in the eyes of others, but it was slightly surprising… It was funny?
Yes, knowing that nobody would watch an educational program like this, they decided to make this a comedy. Introducing a tip on romance the characters usually ignore it as the sex gods, who have come to ensure the virgins succeed, squabble amongst themselves how they will never finish their job. A combination of tsukkomi, parodies, and a lot of randomness I never felt compelled to drop 30-sai.
As a comedy the story is rather insignificant - it revolves around two virgins and their sex gods who are trying to find them a soul mate. The tips are always incorporated into a joke so you remember them. By the end it didn't really serve its purpose as I only remember one of them: "Keep eye contact for 10 seconds at a time."
The characters aren't bad. The god's definitely have personality which is the only way this show is watchable. The couple are okay, of course you might not empathize with 30 year old virgins depending on how nice of a person you are. The girl is slightly androphobic or tsundere, and the male is what is easily classifiable as a typical male lead. In fact the synopsis is right, the love is rather pure as there is really low amount of fan service. They just don't show much that needs to be censored. They do have a lot of language censored, but the voiceover, I am convinced is Wakamoto Norio, can be humorous. Personally I never paid enough attention to make it out, but others on the forums were enjoying them.
30-sai was an okay watch. I picked it up on a whim, but it is neither very educational nor very funny. I am not sure if I would recommend it, actually I wouldn't since there are a lot of things out there to watch, but it wouldn't burn your eyes out if you did either.
Questions and feedback on my review are welcomed and appreciated!

Story focused on the main characters trying hard to get rid of their virginity. Both series deal with it in a very comedic way.
Similarities:
Both main leads wanted to get laid.
Both have comedy and ecchi as the main genres.
Both main leads have deities as their sex guru.
Dissimilarities:
One is a full 12 episode anime while the other is a 12 min Omake.
One has an extra school genre, while the other has sienen genre.
In B Gata H Kei the deity merely a imaginary being, while in 30-Sai the deity messes up the lead character's daily life.
Also, in B Gata H Kei, the main lead was able to kissed, show her privates ( accidentally of course) and nearly banged her male lead, while in 30-Sai, the main lead is yet to kiss and have his cherries popped by the female lead he is targeting, provided that his deity doesn't mess things up.
And, another thing, B Gata H Kei is a bad anime, but not so bad, while 30-Sai is a bad, bad and lame, lame omake.
Both animes are very ecchi and have similar goals of losing their virginity. If you liked this series you will like this too.

Both are supposed to be a guide for dating and having sex. Also both contain some comedy and desperate main male character and innocent in some way female. Makoto (Futari Ecchi) trying to please his wife and add a little spice to his sex life. While Hayao (30-sai) is trying to get some "sex life".
Both are based on "educational" works who tries to give sexuals lessons to those who ... Oh, lame excuse to sell. The animated adaptations follows a charismatic, inexperienced and shy couple: in "30-sai" they are still trying to get together, with the help of their clumsy god friends; meanwhile, "Futari Ecchi" starts by the marriage, but its protagonists are equally or even more naive and lost.
Different environments, similar situations. The two recount with pleasant mood the difficulties and the steps that these couples give in direction to love, in a way that does not abandon its "didactic" origin. "Futari Ecchi" stands out for having a more mature story, while "30-sai" constantly loses himself in questionable and embarrassing scenes.
