Many times I have been told that in Japan, Hentai is viewed as an art form. Here in America, with our puritan backgrounds and Judeo Christian value structure, it is seen as nothing but pornographic filth. Being one who tries to keep an open mind, I decided to view some of the Hentai titles I am familiar with. And by "familiar" that is to say, I know their names. I started with "Aki-Sora" and even with my open mind, I was physically ill watching this.

A 21-minute long cringe fest coming from the respected studio Hoods Entertainment, this story focuses around the tall and beautiful Aki and her femininely, awkward little brother Sora. The two have always been close and as puberty comes in they now become sexually attracted to each other. Aki is nothing but a sexualized air head, who somehow has the best grades in school, and does nothing but parade around in get ups that accentuate her assets. She is a cover girl. Period. Sora, meanwhile, is a well meaning little brother who could pass for a girl with a change of voice actor and outfit. Actually at one point, he is put in a girl's tennis outfit. Because... I don't want to know.

Seemingly oblivious to all this is Sora's twin sister and Aki's youngest sibling Nami, who does nothing but complain about why there isn't food prepared and be somewhat tomboyish making her the most interesting character in the piece. Since this is Japanese Animation where parents are seemingly non-existent and most plots take place in a high school, we have a fourth character introduced in Kana who has a crush on Sora. Why Sora is so obsessed with his sister and not going after her, who is not only interested but looks just like her (giving us 4 character designs for the price of 2) is beyond me! Oh, yeah. Incest. Right.

This is Hentai. Acres of flesh is a must. I will grant that Aki's body is well drawn and well proportioned, she has large breasts but they are not morbidly huge and she looks like a human being, not some satire of the female form. I would say the art is the best part of this piece given the music is stock and the backgrounds are staples of Anime (schools and bathrooms). The two titular siblings voice actors give competent performances, especially towards the climax *giggity* where the pair comsumate their lust for each other in a scene that made me physically ill but I respect for not being over-the-top. This was after an interesting side-note where the two supporting characters appear to have a lesbian relationship, explaining Nami's tomboyish nature and Kana going for it because Nami looks like Sora. This was never delved into because, I'm guessing, they had a 21-minute run time and had to concentrate on the incest.

This is just one person's opinion, but I found this to be a nauseating display with an art quality that far surpassed the subject matter. It disgusted me. It bored me. It made 21 minutes feel like 41. And yet it spawned sequels, which I will not get into because of how rough a watch this one was for me. I may review the Hentai genre again in the distant future, but I will not bother with such wretched and pathetic stock as this. Far from my taste and I do not recommend it to anyone. 1/10. Stay away!
