Yuuwaku Countdown: Akira

This series is absolutely amazing! Unfortunately, it has been mislabeled as a hentai, and bundled with other anime porn. However, it is NOT a hentai. It's an erotic-psychological-drama-romance. There's a big difference between an erotic movie and a hentai/porno. Yes, it does have graphic sex scenes in it, but you don't even see anything other than some breasts. I have seen standard ecchi anime that have been far more graphic. If it hadn't been part of the Countdown series, which WERE hentai, it may not have gotten labeled as one. The story really draws you in. The plot is very deep and moving. The characters arecomplex and feel real, it contained a lot of psychological elements, and it has a great deal of romance. And the voice actor for the female lead does a stupendous job. You can really hear the emotion in her voice that makes her character feel very realistic. The art is really good, and the director uses it to express beauty, storytelling, and emotion. The only drawback is that half of it is slide-show, but there's a reason for that too, which comes into play at the very end of the last episode, and it is also used to signify important and emotional scenes. Sadly, due to it incorrect hentai label, many people pass over this rare gem, thinking it's just standard anime smut when it's not. It's really worth a watch. The ending was beautiful too, as Akira was finally able to accept the truth about his sister and escape her abuse, and he finally accepts Kaname's love. Even though he was obsessed with his sister, you could see his developing feelings for Kaname when they were together despite his cold front, because she showed him what real love was, as opposed to his sister, who only loved herself and what she saw of herself in Akira, which was why she forced him to dress as a girl. Akira realized this at the end, and confesses that he viewed his sister as the perfect person, hence why he loved her so much, but finally realized she was a selfish and ugly person, and how horrible he himself had been to people. She really was a terrible person, and physically and mentally abused Akira; it's no wonder he ended up the way he did, but Kaname changed him by showing him real love. I really liked that line he delivered when he realized how horrible his sister was and then thought of Kaname, "She's more beautiful than anything". It was a great revelation for how he saw her as a person and his own feelings for her. Another reviewer stated that Kaname was the only one he ever kissed out of all his sex partners. I noticed this too. There are a lot of people that find sex to be just a physical act, but feel that kissing is much more intimate and meaningful. This seemed to be the case with Akira. He even claims that when it comes to sex that it doesn't matter if it's man or woman, because "A hole is just a hole". At first when he was having sex with Kaname, he wouldn't kiss her even when she asked, but when they finally got together at the end, he did, and he gave her permission to use his name, which before he only allowed his sister to do, saying it belonged to her. Also, his request to her when he asked her to call him by his first name "Look only at me" was very touching too, as it greatly contrasted what his sister did, seeing and loving only the bits of herself she saw in him. Kaname was able to see through and accept all his flaws, and love him for who he was, even after all the horrible things he did. And that very last scene at the end, when he was looking out the window at the snow, that was pretty symbolic. I saw something similar on another anime where it was stated that when two people were saying goodbye and it was snowing, it meant that God was paying attention. This scene shows how he was finally able to say goodbye to his sister and his feelings for her and move on with Kaname. Overall, it was a really beautiful and touching series in several ways. It really didn't get the recognition it deserved due to that unfortunate hentai label and the fact that it contained a lot of sex scenes.

Very few people watched this, I was amazed the last review was from 2012 heck it was long back This is shouldn't be a hentai, although there are sex scenes(which aren't that as naked as now-a-days hentai). First of all, this is not the type of hentai that you should watch when you are horny this anime has a dark vibe as "Sucm's wish" I was mentally devasted. This came out in around 1995, I liked the art the '90s hentai gives some nostalgic vibe though it was just sound and almost a slideshow of images and the main sex scenes were animated. The sex scenesare really erotic although they didn't show genitals directly, the details of sex and the flow will make your mind go blank. Here are two ratings if you gonna watch as hentai it's 6/10. it's mainly because of the dark story although the ending was good I was in no mood for hentai. If you are going to watch as anime, not as hentai ( I just mean you aren't horny and just exploring hentai) it's 8/10

You need to read original manga,temptation chapter 2. Story is completely altered. It will give you whole other feeling. You can catch the story flow, almost exactly the same as the show except the Ending!!! The producer made up all the bullshit story, that's not how it supposed to unfold. Akira is beautiful. So much so that he can have any girl... or guy that he lays eyes on making him very self-centered. Unfortunately, the only woman he has ever wanted is the one woman he could never have, his own sister. When he first met Kaname, naive to the ways of the world, his ownworld slowly began to change. The realization of the reality that his sister can never be his and that he can never find true comfort in her arms devastates him. There, from the depths of his despair, he finds salvation in Kaname's loving embrace.
