"Ogenki Clinic Adventures" (1991)

(Whoah! 20 of these already! Wish I had something better than this quickie here.)

Ogenki Clinic Adventures (1991)

Starring the voices of: Vincent Baggs, Honey Bare, Sadaj, Holly Bobbit, Wendi Talker, Brim Tease.

First, the lowdown: Freudian hentai, sans tentacles.

People often picture hentai (that is Japanese animated pornography) with young, nubile schoolgirls being violated by some deformed tentacled beast (like Ron Jeremy with multiple phalluses.) This description is not ill deserved, nor is it surprising. One needs only to look into Japanese mythology to find tales of diving girls being seduced by octopi; demons comprised of nothing but oversized genitals and feet; and dark lords who make pacts with evil forces to assist their manhood. However, not all hentai is tentacle porn, in the same vein that not all of Japanese animation is Pokemon. (In fact there is a genre of “blackmail porn”: stories that involve a character being blackmailed to perform scenarios that he/she normally would find squeamish or repulsive.) Ogenki Clinic Adventures is about sex therapist Dr. Ogenki, and his Russ Meyer-esqe, dippy redheaded assistant Aruko. Ogenki possesses an immense cock (which bears his likeness on its head), and Aruko is every Coop fan’s dream. Together they treat a wide array of weirdos: a blushing 18-year old who can’t ejaculate, and a man with a superhero fetish. At first glance, the storyline and characters seem quite western; a sex doctor with a bevy of unsatisfied patients, his large busted nurse, and nymphomaniac landlady are all the staples of classic American pornography. However, other areas are distinctly Japanese: an example story involves a weird Jungian exercise where Aruko’s brother surgically alters himself to look like his sister. There’s quite a bit of male transvestitism and submission in this flick, so if you’re into pegging, check it out.

Line of the movie: “Only until you admit that you’re a pervert can you be CURED!” declares an adamant Dr. Ogenki.

Three and a half stars. If it moves, kill it.
