Rape Gouhouka!!!

With Japan's declining birthrates, the government has taken the bold stance of legalizing rape as long as the purpose is to make children to help prevent the countries population from disappearing completely, leading to mass rape across the country even before the announcement hits the news, as the news anchor is already getting pounded by one of her work colleagues as she reads out the news to a shocked audience.

Now, I know there have been a lot of ideas floated out there to help alleviate the declining birthrate in Japan, but I feel like legalizing rape for procreation is probably very low on that list. ... Maybe go with a cash incentive, introduce maternity and paternity leave along with free child care for people who need to work. There's a lot of ways to help prevent the declining birthrate, but I feel like rape is probably not the first thing to come to mind when dealing with the possibility of the population getting smaller and smaller. But then we wouldn't have a hentai now, would we?

But does that mean that I think that this hentai is bad. Fuck no, it's actually pretty good. It's decently enough animated and the character designs are pretty decent for the most part, and there is even some variety in the sex scenes, ranging from schoolgirls on the train, mothers and daughters at the same time, and even idols and police women getting in on the action, not that they have much of a choice mind you.

Probably the highlight of the first episode are two girls who beat up a guy who was trying to rape them only to find out that the cop that they tried to report him to tells him he's perfectly within his legal right before booking them and taking them down to the station to make an example out of them.

And yes, for those out there who are probably into that stuff, there is even a sex scene with a pregnant woman while another pregnant woman masturbates as she watches. I mean, if you're going to have a hentai about the female characters getting pregnant, might as well go all in and have a scene where a woman who is already pregnant getting dicked down. I mean, what's going to happen? It's not like she's going to get pregnant twice. Now that I think about it, it seems like he's wasting his time and erection at the same time when he could be outside doing his civil duty with a woman who isn't pregnant yet. What an idiot.

The whole concept is absurd enough that it works in the hentai's favor and makes for a good watch if want something amusingly stupid to watch in between your wank sessions as you're catching your breath and recharging your batteries.

There's no doubt that there is probably at least one scene out of this whole thing that someone might find to their liking, so it's a recommend from me.

I am flattered and honored to be the first person to review this masterpiece; however, I am, at the same time, disappointed in the community for there not already being mountains of reviews and memes of this work already existing. I feel like the Norwegians when they rediscovered bouvet Island and claimed it because no one else has gotten around to claiming it (I know that isn’t 100% accurate). But unlike Bouvet island, this work of art isn’t useless—bad yes, useless, far from it.

I’m gonna be real with y’all. This two episode OVA hentai jawn was pretty bad if we are looking ... at it in terms of being good porn—I know I didn’t get off to this. But something I say about anime, and art in general, is that every conceivable idea can be presented in a way that is intellectually stimulating. Basically, unlike a classical elitist who will likely hate on ideas for being stupid, I hate on ideas for not being writing well, and wish that they will be reused in better stories to keep the flow of ideas going. For example, I don’t hate on Attack on Titan because it is simply giant naked men getting cut up by edgy teenagers, I hate on it because the writing is sub par. And I hope for later shows to build upon the ideas of their failed comrades to make better anime moving forward (even though Gurren Lagann is AoT but a thousand times better).

So what is with all this talk of ideas and themes doing in a hentai review? To simply put it, I actually think the premise of this porno is actually really something special. I don’t know if it’s been done before (If yet please inform me); regardless, the premise isn’t your standard brother with loli sister we have grown so accustomed too. This hentai tackles the hypothetical scenario of r@pe becoming legalized. This premise is as stomach turning as it sounds. When watching this, I wanted to vomit out of fear, and I am a dude.

How the show tackled this idea was obvious very juvenile and counterintuitive to intellectual property. If this was trying to seriously tackle this hypothetical, it would have to show in detail, how this policy made it through the Japanese parliament and what political atmosphere would lead to such a policy to even be proposed. Instead of all that political jargon, the show was shows a newswoman getting r@ped on tv as she informs the people of the new policy—unnervingly humorous, yes, mature writing, no.

Pretty much the whole show is just women getting r@pped because it is legal and that’s about it. It is really as juvenile as that. The ending of the show tries to be all psychoanalytical in showing how women all develop a kind of Stockholm syndrome where they all fall in love with their initial r@pists. And it goes so far as to have them talk about how much they love legal r@pe. This kind of an ending comes with very little in-world psychoanalytics to back up its conduction; it just sorta says this is what happens when r@pe is legal, and we are just supposed to take its word for it.

With all that being said, this is a hentai truly fitting for a Jordan Peterson fan, but as for me, I got nothing out of it other than “yeah that’s a cool idea for a story.” I might write a screenplay with this idea and try to make it actually good, but until then, this hentai is pretty bad. I would only recommend it as a gag watch with friends. It is only two episodes, so it makes for an easy MAL entry to help make you list look bigger than what it really is.

I apoligies if the subject matter of this review was off putting; I’m only saying what this hentai is about. If you found yourself liking my rhetoric, I have a twitch and I stream regularly and love talking about anime, politics, philosophy, and literally any other topics that come to mind (I have a working link on my MAL profile). Feel free to catch me live and chat with me or make fun of me—whatever works for you. I also have a discord server on my profile if you want to chat directly with my over voice; I’d love to hear from y’all. Have a nice one, Peace!

When you watch hentai for as long as I have, you’ve seen the good, the bad and the “maybe I’ll try that church thing again” so when I say that Rape Gouhouka is not that bad then you shouldn’t trust me because even more fucked up hentai has left me mentally damaged. Oh boy, a hentai about the legalization of rape, now doesn’t that just make you wanna say “Does it get any more hentai then this?”. I would describe this hentai as a hyperbolic statement about the state of hentai, how the art and concept is a commentary on how ridiculous, played out and ... oversaturated common hentai tropes are. That would be my brain damage giving the author and team behind the production of Rape Gouhouka too much credit. In reality, we all know that this is just an artist looking for their breakout hit which gets them into the industry, trying to amp up the extreme nature in which hentai treats sex and its characters to stand out in the horde of bland, over the top hentai. Ironically enough Rape Gouhouka has become the very thing it tries to break away from. Mediocrity.

Story : 3

This hentai is worse than mediocre, it has committed the cardinal sin of showing that there was potential depth to the story then taking that potential plot, eating it and shitting it out as the garbage fire that it has presented to us. When I take the title and run it through Google translate I get what I expect "Rape legalization". Seems simple enough and reading the synopsis I get this but condensed : “Rape legal, everyone woman raped”. So as I expect, we get a montage of women just getting raped all over the place in the most grotesque was possible as men literally line up by the hundreds to fuck the idols that they stan so hard. We then get a montage of the same women getting fuck some more after they’ve been mind broken(You really can’t say mind broken sex and rape are the same, they’ve basically given in). Pretty boilerplate hentai stuff, expect they took it one step too far which pissed me off. They mentioned that there was political influence and left the possibility of a national conspiracy manipulating lawmakers to pass this law then led to a gang rape scene and a montage of pregnancy porn. At the end of the episode, I was left in disbelief and disappointment that this hentai was able to garner similar audience scores as some of the most forward thinking and structurally rich stories in hentai.

Legal Accuracy Consistency : 3

For a hentai dealing in the legalities of rape given the passage of this new legalization, the one quirk which made this show somewhat entertaining was playing around with how legal certain acts were with regards to rape. The cop scene was relatively entertaining as technically the man’s claim to rape the girls was justified, we do not see any injuries or evidence that the man assaulted them meaning their claim to self-defense was unjustified so they were guilty of assaulting him for doing something perfectly legal. That sliver of hope for the show keeping with this quirk was soon dissipated as the cop proceeds to commit malfeasance in office as he uses his position of authority unlawfully to kidnap the girls. With that, the charm of the ‘law abiding rapist’ quirk dissolved as he had committed an act of kidnapping. If the officer had just raped the girls right there then this would be perfectly legal but he moved them as in Article 224 of the Japanese Penal Code

“A person who kidnaps a minor by force or enticement shall be punished by imprisonment with work for not less than 3 months but not more than 7 years”[1]

And defining a minor as being under 20 by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs policy [2] we see that our girls were high schoolers and thus presumably minors. Furthermore we have the man who rapes a married woman saying “Shutting yourselves inside your house is useless!” which hints that the man broke into the house meaning he was guilty of breaking and entering. It seems far fetched in my opinion that society would break down so far as to forget that the legalization of rape is a law and thus all other laws established beforehand must be maintained.

Art : 5

Personally, I am not the audience for giga-breasts and find that they take me out of the moment due to their ridiculousness and unrealistic scale. On the other hand, the faces, settings and character design were top notch in the realm of hentai with a very inconsistent standard of quality among different products.

Emotional Damage : 2

I’ve seen worse. This hentai doesn’t hold a candle to cult vore classics such as Euphoria or Dropout where I’ve seen more creative forms of rape and faces of girls who’s human value has been dragged through the mud and left to rot on a pile of faeces while their faces reflecting the degraded state of their being continue to haunt my waking moments as whispers of degeneracy. These women barely resist, barely feel pain, barely show an ounce of true horror as their own bodies are made as playthings for primal, savage beasts known as men. If you’ve seen any mildly disturbing hentai then this is a walk in the park and while newcomers might be put-off by this, it acts as a stepping stone for them in their journey to become as sick as the rest of us.

As I mentioned before, if this was all a satirical commentary on hentai and the broader Japanese culture then the choice of art and story was masterfully paired together. The extremely unrealistic body proportions of the females as a cold reflection of the oversexualization of women in society acting as a wakeup call to the consumer, the purge-esque vibe unleashed by the men of the hentai and the overly simple and primal plot that serves only to get to the raping mirroring Japan’s JAV market which has become severly oversaturated with rape themed content. All of this would be masterful however I am not ready to credit this work with being a sophisticated critique on modern hentai culture, we must take it at face value as a brainless escapade into pushing what kind of content consumers are willing pick up despite being completely devoid of any appreciation for the art form called hentai.

“It’s called hentai and it’s art”
