Kairaku Satsujin Chousakan Kouji

There is a monster out for blood, and the only one that can stop it is the man-demon Koji. Aided by a morbid psychic, he follows the grisly trail of victims to a lonely woman. But Koji soon qustions if his powers are enough to stop this devastating threat.

I'm going to just get this quickly out of the way. The sex is too middling and short to be really enjoyed. I guess if you're looking for something very specific, you might get something out this, but in the decades since the release of this hentai, there has a wide selection of well animated tiddies to ... come out that are much better than this. It's not even the best from around the time that it was released. And I doubt many people want to combine sex and gore in their hentai.

The reason that I had to get that out of the way was due to everything else about this hentai. This is one of those anime that within 5 minutes of the first episode, you're bombarded with several dumb and baffling thing at once, and you have to pause it for half an hour just to take a proper breather.

Somehow, this anime simultaneously doesn't slow down to introduce anything or smoothly transition from one scene to another, and yet it's constantly filled with clumsy lines of exposition to try and introduce characters and what they're supposed to be doing in any given situation. The whole thing is coming at you a million miles a second, and you don't have time to properly digest any of what's going on before it just moves onto the next scene. One scene has a character say that she can't come, only for this scene to be followed by the guy she was talking to making her come.

And the English dub is truly something to behold. All of the actors are clearly enthused to be voicing some dumb hentai or are rushing through it to just the whole thing over and done with. I know hentai doesn't exactly have high standards when it comes to voice acting, but it's still hilariously hearing some of the best worst acting I've seen come out of a hentai in a while. It's bordering on Garzey's Wing Territory.

On top of that, some of the voices have been digitally pitched lowered, and it's blatantly obvious. I don't know if that's because some voice actors didn't want their voices to be recognized, sheer incompetence, or the fact that the anime might have run out of actors to voice all of their characters, re-used some of them, and then tried to cover them up with shitty editing.

Even the music has problems. Aside from the fact a lot of the music doesn't even match what's happening on screen, I'm pretty sure that most, if not all, of it either came from a generic music library meant for temporary music, or a Casio keyboard pre-set. It ranges from sounding like it would have appeared in a mull as generic Muzak, or just flat out sounds like someone is playing a bunch of random note with no coercion whatsoever. It sounds like the infamous "Mansion Basement" track from the Director's Cut of the original PS1 version of Resident Evil.

I have never heard a combination of bad mixing, bad sound effects, and bad voice acting quite like I've heard here. And all of this came from the first episode alone. There are two more episodes, for a total of three episodes, and the entire thing is peppered with more bizarre choices.

The second episode starts with a recap that's censored with mosaics, which makes me think that it's either reused footage from a censored version of the hentai because it was the easiest footage to find for the edit, or an advertisement for the hentai that editor was already editing together, and they just slapped it onto this anime to either fill time for an episode, or they didn't want to waste more energy on editing, or it was already a low paying job. Either way, the rest of the episode is uncensored, so it doesn't make sense why this footage is censored.

The way that they censor it isn't even consistent from episode to episode, with the second episode using a mosaic and the third episode using just a regular blur. I don't know how you fuck up the continuity of a censor blur.

Despite the fact that I've been shitting all over this hentai, there are a couple of good things that I can say about it, even if it's a complete reach. Even if the whole thing comes across as edgy and try hard, there was an attempt at being dark and moody, even if it veers off into being edgy and tryhard. The animation is actually OK, and it actually has some decent monster designs, unique looking locations, and animation. I even liked the song from the credits for what thats worth. It does feel like there was some actual mild effort put into it. The story goes in a weird bizarre nonsense direction, and is almost worth watching just because of it.

Would I recommend Demon Warrior Koji for a wank? Not really. Would I recommend it for it's so-bad-its-good English dub? Sure. Get a couple of beers, and have a couple of laughs. Although, once you watch the first episode, you get the gist of it.
