A unique collaboration between studios SHAFT and GAINAX, Kono Minikuku mo Utsukushii Sekai (This Ugly Yet Beautiful World) was GAINAX’s 20th anniversary work, yet is fairly unknown in the anime community today. That’s probably because it was a fairly standard, forgettable story typical of the era.
Nevertheless, the studios both bought a certain visual flair and a willingness to animate otaku-pandering fanservice, making it a winner in my book!
Premise:
High school student Takeru Takemoto works part time as a (motor)bike courier. During one of his deliveries, he saw a mysterious light passing him and fell into a forest. What he had found was a beautiful girl coming out from a glowing cocoon, calling herself “Hikari.” While Takeru was quite embarrassed because of Hikari’s nudity, a strange monster suddenly showed up and immediately attacked the two. Both Takeru and Hikari demonstrated the power of their other selves before Takeru had a clue of what’s going on.
The promo artwork shows the cute, simple designs and vibrant colours!
Bloomers right off the bat!
The entrance scene for any mysterious girlfriend character is always important, and this one is certainly memorable. She floats down from the sky, cast in a warm magical light, start naked and bearing a pair of utterly perfect breasts.
W Wish is your run-of-the-mill dating game anime adaptation of the mid 00’s, featuring a moe selection of school-age girls in a light romance story. This one’s fairly obscure, and probably even less known is the fact that it has some tantalising nipple-laden omake!
Onegai Twins got a summer holiday OVA special in 2004, delivering some tantalising fanservice of the show’s cuties!
Premise of Onegai Twins:
Maiku Kamishiro’s past has always been somewhat of a mystery to him. The only clue he has to who his family might be is an old photograph showing two young children, a boy and a girl, playing in a small pool outside of a blue house. In an attempt to find his family, he moves to this blue house and begins working as a programmer. He’s living a comfortable life until the day two very different girls show up at his door, both in possession of the same photograph, and both claiming to be his twin. With no way to prove who is a relative and who is a stranger, Maiku allows both girls to move in with him until they know for sure.
The promotional art focuses on the slight sex appeal of the main two girls!
Right off the bat we get a statement of intent, the two lead girls showing their cute petite bodies in one pieces!
Time to put another week behind us, sit back and look at some of the recent highs, lows and lewds in the world of anime, manga and all things weeaboo.
This actually turned into a pretty wonderful week for those wanting to see some lewdness! Dokyuu Hentai HxEros was extra generous with its serving of Kirara ecchi, Tsugumomo got a new Blu-ray release with heaps of great nudity, and even Kanojo and Railgun chipped in with some sexiness for a full-course meal of deliciousness!
Anime
Dokyuu Hentai HxEros 6
Clearly a Kirara focused episode (which, by the way, I have 0% issue with!), we get a heap of cute bra and panties stitches!
Followed by a healthy amount of her WITHOUT bra and panties! <3
In 2004, one of the classic first-generation ecchi TV anime got a second season: Hanaukyou Maid-tai (Hanaukyou Maid Team in English)! Based on a manga series, it’s about a young boy who finds himself the centre of attention at a mansion staffed by a battalion of beautiful maid. Romance and ecchi hi-jinks predictably ensue!
Premise:
Hanaukyo Maid Team is about a young boy, Taro Hanaukyo, who has inherited a vast family fortune and, more importantly, the hundreds of employees working at the family mansion. While dressed and referred to nominally as ‘maids’, there are discrete albeit sometimes unusual departments for most of the employees (including Defence, Science, Catering, etc.). Presumably the various extensive projects in the house pay for most of its expenses.
Interestingly, this anime was actually a reboot of the original and continuation, which apparently had some issues.
The show’s character designs were actually quite restrained and elegant for the time, which still emphasised outrageous body proportions and more exaggerated facial features. This lent itself to nice, sexy artwork!
One of the first scenes features an intense boob-laden bathing scene, just to set the mood early!
In 2042, alien threats known as the Mimetic beasts (擬態獣, gitaijū) laid waste to Japan. During a final battle against the Mimetic beasts, Goh Saruwatari defeats the alien “boss” and saves his future fiancé, Anna Aoi, with his robot, the Dannar.[7]
Now, on their wedding day, the Mimetic beasts emerge after five years of tranquility. Goh and Dannar are called to action, forcing Goh to leave Anna at the altar.
As Goh struggles in his battle against the Mimetic beast, Anna stumbles upon a sealed robot known as “Neo Okusaer”. She is able to activate and pilot the Neo Okusaer to save her “husband” by merging it with the Dannar to activate the Godannar’s Twin Drive.
Like many of the late-night anime of this era, the promotional and DVD artwork was not shy in using sex appeal to sell the show, with the girls in skimpy clothes and gravure poses!
The series itself certainly knows how to flaunt its lovely ladies, but isn’t as ecchi as it seems to have a reputation for. In fact, it’s not as trashy as it appears and is an entertaining show of a decent quality!
One thing it does nail is the breast jiggle, certainly giving GAINAX a run for its money!
The show’s top-grade boobs are shown off right away in the first episode of season 2, bouncing alluringly.
Panty-shots are thankfully also included in Godanner, although they’yre the simply, fleeting type!
Another good shot to show off the girls’ curvey figure!
Great change room scene with animated undressing!
A funny example of a dramatic moment taking care to accentuate breasts and butt.
2 girls 1 tub, the good, clean fun variety!
This short skirt led to the best panty-shot moments I spotte in this season.
Ojousama being dressed, I’m happy to bare witness!
Sexy innuendo!
Bloomers are a great choice for girls in the cockpit!
The nudity isn’t too frequent, but when it appears it’s nice!
This scene managed to be one of the hottest in the whole show, with the female cast lounging around in tight-fitting bikini that really profile their breasts and behinds to perfection! The nipples poking through the thin fabric is a great touch!
Time to put another week behind us, sit back and look at some of the recent highs, lows and lewds in the world of anime, manga and all things weeaboo.
This ended up being a pretty exciting week for ecchi fans with a whole slew of manga lewds and announcements, sexy loli action in Tsugumomo (and the nipple-inclusive release of its first blu-ray!), and plenty of other wholesome goodness.
Anime
Tsugumomo #10
Let’s jump straight into the best part of the week – Tsugumomo!
Kinda hard to capture it in screenshots but let’s just say that this woman was doing suspiciously lewd things with this cute loli.
Sunao is super cute when she’s naked!
And one of the best bathing scenes from the manga finally gets animated! An onsen trip culminates in two soapy lolis enjoying each other’s company a little too much.!
Ecchi legend Yabuki Kentarou has announced the start of his next manga series! It looks like a battle school setting, but one thing’s for sure, it had better include plenty of bare breasts and panties!
Yuuna Final Chapter
The time is right for a new ecchi series, as Yuragi-sou no Yuuna-san has just concluded, living a big void to fill. The final chapter came with a sexy onsen colour spread and news that a new anime OVA is on its way!
HenSuki New Chapter
The HenSuki manga is still going strong, with the latest chapter containing some very interesting perverted activites!
Alcafus #19
In the same volume of Gekkan Dragon Age, the latest chapter of Alcafus (19) had a pretty spicy bathing scene! I’m going to have to read this manga..
I’m Not a Lolicon! Chapter 8
This superb loli manga got an obligatory pee chapter which was as amusing as it was sexy!
Trinity Seven #23
Nice new illustration for volume 23 of Trinity Seven.
Kishuku Gakkou no Juliet
Sexy new illustrations for Kishuku Gakkou no Juliet! Persia is so sexy in her garters!
Light Novels
Kaifuku Jutsushi no Yarinaoshi Vol.8 Textless illustration

Industry
Peter Grill to Kenja no Jikan
Upcoming ecchi anime Peter Grill got another trailer that better highlighted its eroticism and clearly showed nipples are on the way (though perhaps only in Blu-Ray!)
https://youtu.be/YVxoC0pLhH4
Hiro Mashima’s successor to Fairy Tail, Eden’s Zero got an anime announced! The sci-fi themed manga contains plenty of sexy girls and fanservice!
Gravion is a popular anime franchise by studio Gonzo which combined mecha stories with a focus on cute, sexy girls and moe. The first series aired in 2002, and the second, Gravion Zwei, in 2004. It’s trashy Gonzo at it’s peak and marketed its girls hard for the otaku crowd, giving plenty of sexiness over the years.
Just look at some of these promo and Megami pinup illustrations!
Unlike a lot of other shows of this ilk though, Gravion has some other things going for it that make it worth watching such as a self-parodying tone, and 80s-style mecha animation. The amount of fanservice in the show is just enough that you wouldn’t class it as ecchi but it’s still got the goods!
The service kicks off with an onsen episode early in the series, showing the series has the strength to show nipples right off the bat!
This girl is shy about being naked around others – cute!
Sadly she isn’t given the nipple treatment!
Like most of shows of this era, it’s females get a uniform that does wonders for their figure!
Although they’re not super frequent, some nice panty-shots are spread throughout the show.
And the T&A is on-point!
Being a partial comedy, there’s plenty of room for dressing up and other silly antics!
Later in the show, this girl gets the nipple treatment in a great shower shot!
Love Love? is a part of the suite of ecchi-related anime produced under the banner of Masters Of Entertainment (m.o.e) which at the forefront of exploiting late-night satellite television for the niche otaku market. They produced a series of short-episode anime series in the early 2000’s, some of which were interelated.
Love Love features characters and some plot elements with two of their other series, CosPrayers and Hit wo Nerae. As with all m.o.e series, it features gratuitous nudity, panty-shots and fetishistic elements aimed at moe-loving otaku!
We kick off with a bikini photo shoot at the beach, with careful camera work capturing some stunning features!
Then it’s panty-shots galore when we switch to school life! Thanks to some divine wind and clumsiness, a great range of panties are given screen time!
This is an intro screen to an early episode and it’s genius!
The show does have some loli characters but still delivers in the boob department.
Cute panties!
Petite girls + bloomers = success!
Chira~
Back to the beach, this time with all the gals splashing around and enjoying each other!
And here it is, the first proper titties and they are damn fine! I live the way this studio draws nipples!
And there’s plenty more to come when they hit the onsen and MC gets predictably caught up in an unplanned mixed bathing situation!
Plenty of chances to admire these beautiful breasts!
And it gets even better when these two end up in a war of words over love that somehow leads to them pressing their bodies up against each other!
Later we get to witness a close encounter in the gym storage room!
As we get to the characters filming the show they’re producing within the anime, we get some spicier scenes, including time with tentacles.
These two are so cute!
Sweet dreams indeed!
All the girls get a turn at wearing seductive aprons with nothing underneath – the coveted ‘naked apron’!.
There’s also cosplaying in the playboy bunny outfit!
I love that the lolis aren’t excluded from the action – this series caters to all!
Cute butts in the changing area!
This is one way to get over writers’ block??
OK this fantasy just hit maximum!
Fancy bra and panties can be seen in the change rooms!
Loli girl enters the showers
And thankfully stays topless for a while, showing her cute chest.
Shower scene with a few of the girls!
Back to filming and things are getting a bit kinky with a sexualised whipping scene!
The MC starts to blur fantasy and reality as he writes the shows’ devious script. This scene, the punished girl ends up submitting to him.
And he writes this girl being humiliated with swimsuit-eating fish in the pool.
The tanned loli girl is depicted in kindergarten attire and then string up reveal panties.
But embarrassment is just the beginning, as the climactic scene has the girls topless and strung up, captives to the villain of the piece.
Back to normal reality and some lighter fanservice!
The daily life of filming the show continues.
And if you like schoolgirl fanservice, you’re in for a treat with some bloomers and school swimsuit scenes!
Burn Up Scramble was the last entry in the Burn Up! franchise, a 12 episode series releases in 2004 with a different look at feel to the previous entries. Burn Up Scramble is emblematic of the female battle team genre of anime that was still booming at the start of 2004, using its working women and action settings to service fans with busty girls in mini-skirts, skimpy outfits, change rooms and panty shots. Suits me just fine!
Premise:
Set in AD. 2023, Tokyo the government is concerned about the increase in major criminal organizations, terrorists and other threats to the security of society. This leads to the formation of special extralegal police team from within the Metro Police Section 8 Branch called Warrior. Under their Commander, the team combines the talents of martial arts expert Rio Kinezono and skilled marksman and gun expert Maya Jingu. They are joined later by the shy Lilica Evette who uses her psychic powers to assist them in their crime-solving adventures. Later, the Police Council create obedient New Warriors to replace the original Warriors. These New Warriors are genetically modified humans with superhuman strength gained via drugs and based on data obtained from monitoring Rio and Maya’s missions.
The promotional art for the series was always sure to demonstrate the sex appeal of its heroines!
Naked apron, that’s one way to get your viewer’s attention!
The bathing scenes are well done, using the opportunity for great eye candy, even sneaking in some nipple glimpses!
Rio’s hot body is shown off well in underwear..
…and even better without!
And she’s not the only one, her teammates are all given the chance to appear sans clothing.
There’s plenty of shots of Rio in various states of undress, and one particularly good moment where she’s topless and her nipples are fully exposed.
One massive charm point in Rio’s favor is her tendency to wear cute bear panties, and they’re frequently visible. How cute!
Panty-shots are once of the show’s strengths , with lots of styles to be seen and some generous camera angles to help get that glimpse!
There’s some moments where it shows a kinky streak to it, with references to bondage and candle play.
But there’s no doubt what most fans are here for, these hot bodies!
