Sometimes while searching through the septic tank of ancient anime I uncover a nugget of gold. This is one of those times! This is a shitty echii dubbed by early ADV and translated in the style of Ghost Stories and Samurai Pizza Cats by Matt Greenfield. It also features the talents of certain voice actor that take this piece of shit from merely amusing to absolutely amazing!
Plot:
Dragon Knight is the story of a wandering hero who gets caught trying to steal food from a royal palace. In order to escape punishment, he must go on a quest to rescue a harem of beautiful women being held in a nearby castle. The plot is...minimalist to say the least. This is a 30 minute hentai based on a 1980s erotic PC game. Yes...there were erotic PC games in the 1980s with Chip's Challenge/ Oregon Trail graphics. Gotta get that sweet Apple 2 graphics pussy!
Characters:
The only character of note is our perverted hero named Takeru, who is voiced by God's gift to Mankind: Doug "The Golden Boy" Smith. The early days of English dubbing were...rough to say the least. That's why I love those old actors who saved otherwise bad anime with amazing performances. Doug Smith was one of those rare VAs who could make ANYTHING watchable. He belongs in the old anime Hall of Fame along with Mark Gatha, Allen Wenger, Carter Cathcart, Rik Nagel, and all the rest.
Art:
This is a 30 minute hentai made by Studio Wombat. If you think the art and animation is going to be good, you should be slapped.
Overall:
This is a terrible echii, but a pretty amazing early anime comedy. If you want a Ghost Stories echii series with an amazing voice cast, then you can join me in enjoying this buried treasure!
