Joshi Luck!

Let me just say EVERYONE has high expectations going into this hentai adaptation, including me. I mean its one of the most popular and highly rated manga's so of course the fanbase will expect something that delivers. Did Bunnywalker manage to succeed at the grueling task of adapating one of the most famous hentai dojins or did they fail disappointingly known as "Joshi Luck!"? Well let's find out. Story: 4/10. Now as someone who has not read the manga, please remember that all of my critisms are directed at the anime and not the manga. With that being said, "Joshi Luck" fails in many regardsto stories in my eyes. I don't know what it is but I have kind of starting warming up the whole trope of "harem of sports girls", when it is done right that is. I feel Joshi Luck never really gives time for things to develop, kind of like something else I recently reviewed. I am going to be honest these 16 minute hentai are really crossing the line but I guess it doesn't matter since no gives a fuck about story and characters rather than me. Look, Joshi Luck's premise is not bad and I do like somethings about it's story development but let's be honest, there is not that much story here. It's not as bad as the other hentai I have reviewed but it's getting to a point where I am legitimate scared of there new releases as they keep getting more and more "lifeless". I don't like hating on series that I legitimately enjoy but when they keep pulling shit like this it really makes me concerned about where hentai is going to be heading in a few years, to "nonsense full or NTR and no plot harems". Art and Animation: 10/10. The art in Joshi Luck! is amazing. Well it does seem hentai is regressing in terms of story it is defiantly making big strides in terms of art and animation. Now I described in my review of "Ecchi na Onee-chan ni Shiboraretai" that the art had this 'indescribable shininess and immense contrast to it', that made it lower than a 10/10. Well... doesn't Joshi Luck! have a similar coloring scheme? Yes it does. However, I feel that Joshi Luck! handles this better because the art style itself has a more unrealistic undertone to it which makes it work so well with the "indescribable shininess' I said earlier. Animation is top notch and choreography of the shmex scenes is also amazing as well. Sound: 10/10. Both VAs of the leads for this hentai and the other girls all perform exceptionally. BG music and such is superb too. Character: 5/10. This low-score honestly just has to do with what characters were given screen time compared to others (I'll talk about this later). But a flaw I have with this is that, the two girls who are the center of attention for the series: Kise and Yuri don't get much time to shine when we don't look at the shmex scenes. Kise has a bold personality but I feel that she barely gets any time to be even shown to the rest of the audience. Yuri does suffer less as she gets more time to develop but ultimately, she could've had more time too. But by far my biggest flaw with this section is how the other three girls get NO shmex scenes whatsoever. Look, if there is more episodes that get released, or another season is announced I'll bite my words and except my mistake. But as of right now this was a horrid decision. The person who was on the cover, Aya does not even get a single sexual moment and the other two are discluded as well. Look, if you are going to make a harem MAKE SURE THAT IT IS A HAREM, not a half-assed attempt at it. There probably will be more for this series but that does not ignore the fact that more than half the cast went underutilized. Enjoyment: 9/10. Ignoring all of my complainants I really enjoyed Joshi Luck! as a hentai. It had amazing art and animation and even better directing for the shmex scenes. For "enjoyment" scores I tend to not look at story at all as I feel that does not dictate my enjoyment. I do however look at the characters as they are an integral part to the hentai, which is why my enjoyment score is not a 10. Both Kise and Yuri were phenomenal... but if more time was spent to polish them they could've been even better! Overall: 6.5/10. Overall Joshi Luck! is a decent hentai. I'd say my standing as far as recommending goes for the hentai is similar to "Ecchi na Onee-chan ni Shiboraretai". As a reviwer I have many flaws with it, but as a lover of hentai I can't find myself saying anything to you but: GO WATCH IT NOW! It may have its flaws, but I still loved many things about it and I am sure many of you will too!
