A Kiss for the Petals: Becoming Your Lover

Story- Average It's not very deep or interesting, but if you're out to see cute girls doing lewd things together then the story gets that done just fine. Art- Above Average I don't think I've seen any hentai with character designs of this quality! It's not a unique art style but it is very charming. Sound- Above Average Voices and sounds are very fitting and cute. Characters- AverageThere's nothing particularly special about the characters' personalities, but they are enjoyable. (It is pretty difficult to develop strong characters in a single episode) Enjoyment- Above Average If you are ever in the mood to watch yuri, this is my top pick!

Just got done watching the first episode a few hours ago, and I have to say, it was better then I thought it was going to be. First off, this is based of the visual novel Sono Hanabira ni Kuchizuke wo ~Atashi to Koibito Tsunagi~ (Title is very obvious) which is the third visual novel of the series. You may be confused on who the characters are and how they met. Story: If you haven't played the game, the story line may be a little confusing, Hell its confusing to me, but after the flashback, things started to make sense. Two girls like each other and willdo anything to help one another. Minds roam with indecent thoughts, and that's where the Hentai Scenes come into play. There is a part of the story where there is a flashback, it kinda shows how they became more then friends, which made things more clear. Art: Watching the OVA, I've noticed a few scenes look a lot like the CG from the visual novel. In the OVA, the artwork is softer then the CG, but is beautifully drawn to give it it's adorableness. Sound: I'd imagine the characters voices are not the same, most Hentai Visuals to Hentai OVAs tend to have different voice actors. (Confirmed, they are different from the Visual Novel) The acting is done wonderfully. Character: I know nothing about there personality from the Visual novel, but have been told they are quite similar. Both Characters love each other very much and will stay by each others side. One is shy and the other is a little pushy. If one is sick, the other is willing to nurse her back to health (Even if it means getting a little sexual). Enjoyment: Originally, I was in it for the Hentai scenes, but after a while, I was in it for the... what's the right words... It's cuteness. Soon I was going "Awww, that's so adorable." I loved it. Side note, the Hentai scenes weren't bad at all, but they are censored (Some of you reading this just went, "Damn it!"). Overall: All and all, I thought the episode was cute. This is one of those Hentai series I would get for the story line and not just for the H scenes. Hell, playing the first visual novel, I knew this had to be adorable. I'd recommend this to anyone who is looking for "cute personality" characters and good Hentai scenes.

I was really surprized at how much I enjoyed this anime.It's definately the most softcore hentai I've seen, and I like that. It's also the cutest hentai anime I've seen. It's got a very different feel, look and story to it compared to other hentai/yuri animes. Although it shows the girls completely naked, it doesn't seem like fanservice to me. It seems more to show the beauty of the girls and their bodies, and the beauty of them being deeply in love and intimate with each other. It's a very sweet story, and I loved both characters very much despite being quite different. Their voices fit themperfectly, showing embarassement and a little bit of tsundere in Reo, and a kind, yet dominating voice in Mai. The artwork is very nice and soft, really portraying the atmosphere of the anime. The eyes show a lot of emotion, and I love the style of art that's used. It's very warm, and it has a very delicate simpleness to it which I really like. All in all, I think this was a wonderful anime. It wasn't what I expected at all, but I was very pleasantly surprized. Although having a simple story, it's lovely and charming. I give this a 10 because I think everything about it was perfect, and I really really enjoyed it!

First things first: If you want hentai, or, in other word, hot lesbian sex, this is an instant 10 for you. Go watch it now. And now for some serious look over things... Story: what story? They are basically already together and have sex almost 85% of the time. The only sign of a plot is that one flashback, where Reo tells Mai how she feels. Then, approximately 20 econds later, Mai is seme ing Reo in some room, saying that she feels the same. Now I'm pretty sure that in the game she gave it much more thought than this... But here, she acted like somehentai-maniac, for crying out loud. It made no sense! Oh, and if you think this is spoiling - no, it's nothing like that. There's just nothing to spoil. The only thing I could spoil is what positions did they try on and etc. So... if you're a yuri fan like me, but you are quite satisfied with the billions of doujinshi over the net, and want something cute, resulting with sex - you won't get it. You won't have the chance to relate to those girls at all. They are just doing it on random. And even the flashback didn't help; according to it, it really was spontaneous for them to get together. If you're a yuri fan that likes yuri sex though, and you don't need much of a story to enjoy some yuri goodness - yeah, this will do the trick. I myself also liked it, to be honest. There's no yuri fan that won't like it. They are cute, they are hot, they are changing poses, they are doing IT. But sometimes only the sex is not enough. It's for you to decide which side are you on. And that will be your criteria for rating. For me, the story was 2/10, the sex was 10/10, so in overall I got: 6. Art: There were some disturbing moments here and there, hyper smooching, fast moving and etc. I can't describe it properly, but in other words - the animation was not fluid. So, to save some time and drawing, some scenes, which should've been slow and beautiful turned into fast and disturbing ones. The character designs are great though, and Mai totally grew on me as a "design". You'll most probably love it, unless you absolutely hate cute stuff but that's really highly unlikely. I personally gave the animetion 8/10, since normally, I don't give less than 7 for art, and this was definitely not a 7. OST: Well, I don't know if it's just me... But I had this problem with Shoujo sect, too... /watch it by the way, it HAS a plot/ So, throughout the episode there's almost non-stop piano music, totally unfitting piano music. I personally get disturbed by it and I lose concentration so it ruined for me the good moments. It might be different for you and you might manage to ignore it, or even like it /LOL/... It depends on the person. 1/10 for shitty piano. The voice actors did a great job with their characters and their moaning was all very cute. They deserve a 10 in my opinion. So overall for OST I'll give 5/10. Characters: Oh yes, they had some really long legs and nice tits, small and big - to satisfy every viewer... And their moaning, and their chemistry, and the sex!!! Oh, wait. Right, so there's basically no character development at all. Don't expect that. They suit each other and that's pretty much about it. 4/10 because they [i]really[/i] suit each other =D Enjoyment: It's not all about the sex!!!! ... ... .. . . 9/10 oh well, you can't blame me. It's 100% sure that you will like the sex too. The problem with SonoHana is not the ero-scenes themselves, it's the backstory, the character development, the OST /there is NO hentai with good ost though, as far as I know, if you know one, then please do tell me about it... So I can't judge them/, partially the art... But mostly the story. I'm sure that in the game everything made more sense and was even more enjoyable, because the player got to know the characters, their story, and their hardships. But here? We get the sex. All in all, I recommend it. Boys, girls, cats, whatever. It may be plotless, but the sex is just too good. And like I said, if the sex is what you're interested in - then you're in for a ten. It's really cute and it's obvious that they love each other /though it's not explained to us properly, their backstory, I mean/. It's not some forced lesbo fuck, so it's worth the watch. ;3
