So, I Can't Play H!

So, I Can't Play H!

Introduction

On the surface, Ryousuke Kaga is the token perverted teenager, spending his days ogling women and indulging in erotic reveries. Because of this, Ryousuke is ostracized by his classmates. Only his childhood friend Mina Okura knows that behind his lecherous persona lies a compassionate boy who has sworn to be chivalrous to girls, believing they are treasures that must be protected. One fateful day, Ryousuke runs into Lisara Restall, a Soul Reaper hailing from a noble family, whose primary objective in the human realm is to locate a magically potent person known as the One. In order to fuel her movement with magic, she decides to form a provisional contract with Ryousuke: to use his sexual desires as a source of energy. Carrying out this peculiar arrangement with Lisara, Ryousuke encounters many disparate individuals but also learns of the intriguing yet dark secrets surrounding his world. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Alright, if I could give a 9 score to Darling in the Franx, I think it's very reasonable to give this anime the same because -this anime has an actually good way of character interactions -this anime has decent animations for battles lol -this anime, like Darling in the Franx, doesn't have a super deep and complex plot Now, the reason I could never rate this anime higher is because -its clearly strong in it's fan service appeal -there is only 1 season lol Personally, I didn't mind the lewdness in this show because it's more normal than you think for armor to be "torn" or worn out in battles, so I gave the females a break there. The real unnatural lewdness is with the main protagonist and his absurd fascination with the female body. Yet, even so, you can argue that a true knight will als…

At first I thought from the title of the show that is was some sort of social drama regarding poor NEETs who couldn’t score or play erogames, but turns out it is something entirely different. Not for the best though. THE STAFF - Animated by Feel, a studio that makes only shitty ecchi anime. - Directed by Takahashi Takeo, the guy who also did the somewhat nice Spice and Wolf, but is otherwise just another guy deep into passable ecchi titles. - Based on a light novel, which means a light story. And in this case, just another Shana clone. Just from the get-go, you already know it will be a dumb story full of ecchi that you will be watching for the fan service. SPECIFICS Ok guys, it’s based on a light novel, so there is an 80% probability it will have characters and plot almost identical to…

Recently I was out of anime to watch and was looking for a few of them and came across Dakara boku wa H ka dekinai. I heard a lot of praise especially for it's second half and as I was dropping anime quite a lot here and there I thought about giving a shot and let's just say it didn't go well for me... Story: 2/10 At best I could describe the anime as "border to hell" with a 2. That's the most I could ever give it for the story section. Call me wierd, but I am very particular about a plot in an Ecchi anime, so I went in with DxD-like expectations and got severely disappointed, and sadly there were a whole long list of reasons apart from that which made me hate the show as well. I'll go step-by-step, since the anime itself was divided into two parts, I divided my story section into two pa…

Alright listen up. I'm going to start this review by introducing myself. I am neonpinkdude and iwill bring you quick reviews based on my opinion. everyone knows my opinion is the best so like yeah. Anyways lets get back to the point. Dakara Boku wa H ga Dekinai is an excellent well made enjoyable harem anime. The characters are my favorite part of this anime and it is one of the few harems that actually have a good ending. Usually harem animes end with a cliffhanger and no sequel which is really annoying in my opinion and that is why I liked this anime so much. It had a really good ending and some enjoyable moments. The art style is good, The sound is outstanding. It is worth your 5 hours. trust me! In no way is it a masterpiece but it is a solid example of doing it right in its genre. Alr…

Like your average high school boy, Ryosuke Kaga can’t stop thinking perverted thoughts. Unlike the average high school boy, he won’t shut up about it, and cares little for anything other than breasts, butts, breasts, napes, breasts, panties, breasts, and... Um... Underarms. It makes more sense when he says it. Anyway, on his way home from school, he sees a beautiful red-haired girl standing all alone in the rain outside of his house. Not content to just stare at her wet, transparent shirt, he offers her his umbrella, and invites her in for a change and a shower. No sooner are they indoors and alone then she begins to hold him close... And just when he’s getting ready to ditch his V-card, she stabs him through the heart with a giant sword. As it turns out, her name is Lisara, and she’s a…

Great anime. Full of comedy, romance, action, and tits. Story I'm not even going to waste my time explaining the plot. Just know that it's great, and the first few episodes are basically intros for the characters. It might be hard to stay on-board (It's well worth it!), but know that after all the characters are revealed, this show takes off into greatness. This anime shifts gears mid-story and steers from comedy ecchi towards a more serious tone. It matures very well yet still retains its "fun". The only predictable things in this anime are the fight scenes in the first few episodes, afterwards nothing is obvious and it will keep you guessing. Art & Sound Art and sound are perfectly fine. The action sequences and romance scenes had great songs/music playing in the background. Characte…

The power of boners is stronger. The Short Version: (+)The art is actually pretty good. (+)Harem with a plot, a weak plot, but still a plot. (-)If you’re not here for the tits you’re in for a bad time. (-)The soundtrack is really unremarkable. (-)You can point at the characters and say, “You are this archtype and nothing else.” The Story (5/10): The story for this show is more than I was expecting given this is an ecchi-harem show, it starts off with a very honest MC who, when he’s heading home, suddenly meets a stunning red headed beauty. Who basically says hi by stabbing him in the chest with a sword. Now effectively making him her power source whenever she gets into a fight, and the way he replenishes said power is… by getting a boner. I wish I got make this shit up. From this point…

*heaves a sigh* Where do I start with this review? I do not have any idea and I would dread reviewing this as much as forcing myself to watch this 12 episodes of cringe-worthy recycled anime. I have always been dubious of action and ecchi genres being lumped together because in my opinion, I would not be able to focus on the action if there's panties shots or exposed breasts every few seconds on the screen which is much reflected in most of the anime having these two genres together. I believe that there's a fine line between focusing on the action or focusing on the ecchi portion (no homo). Dakara Boku wa , H ga Dekinai (copy pasted because I'm much more familiar with the english title) is your standard generic anime. Our main character which I can't even remember the name because most…

Dakura Boku wa, H ga Dekinai is basically your run of the mill, standard echhi anime. While this anime is by no means terrible it is simply mediocre at best. The story was promising at times but the plot was never sufficiently explored for me to care too much. The animation was pretty good but thats to be expected. The soundtrack is by far the best part of the anime, as the opening and ending are both outstanding. The characters........ This is where Dakura Boku wa, H ga Dekinai falls flat on it's face, of all the characters i only like one, The main character here is extraordinarily bland and quite frankly a bore to watch, The main heroine is cliche and mostly uninteresting and most of the others are the same. So overall while i enjoyed this anime at times the story and the characters mad…

Just 4 months later after following the success of Highschool DxD and its perverted yet popular protagonist Issei, Dakara Boku wa, H ga Dekinai its first episode. After watching the first episode me being a huge harem fan expected great things from this show. However with time all my expectations were shot down and flushed down the toilet making me regret ever watching this in the first place. Plot 2/10 The plot was so bad it was almost disgusting that the producers could come up with this garbage and try to pass it off as a decent story. What turned me off the most was that the story was decent until about episode 7 and it felt like something was thrown in the faces off all the fans with poor story telling and replacing the plot with pure fanservice. All the seriousness of the anime was…

If you were to take the classic, quiet girl with a large chest with a crush on the MC since they were kids; the large-chested foil who wants the MC just because; the moderate-chested girl who learns to love the perverted antics of the MC, and the clear romantic interest with a small chest and a tsundere personality, and add a moderate-bust sized cold killer, that'd be the entire female cast of the show. (I typically don't define anime girls by their bust size, but in this series, the screentime on just their faces and just their busts are about equal.) Throw in the perverted MC who has a power everyone wants and that's the story in a nutshell. I watched the entire series because I read a review that said it got better after episode 6, I think it got better at episode 5, but (at least for…

"Dakara Boku Wa" Starts off with this strange perverted Open minded boy walking around with his childhood friend. He is very known at his school for being a pervert, and many dislike him. Basically They waste your time with Pointless half Hentai Crap for the first 6 episodes. Episode 1, you get the real point of the show and the direction it should be heading into. Then you hit episode 2, and you have a Pervert who has this strange ability to regain his power through getting aroused. On top of that through the rest of 3-6 they keep throwing Hentai-Like events at you, and slowly introducing characters, something i felt they could have easily done and gotten over with in 2 episodes, and made the show 3x better. If you manage to get through the first 6 episodes of crap. your actually in for…

Haters of the ecchi genre or people who do not want to be accused watching porn, please skip this review and check other reviews out because this anime is all about boobs. Boobs are everywhere is this anime! Right, I'm going straight into what I feel about this anime. Story: Honestly, the plot in this anime is terribly boring. The whole anime is centred around this death goddess searching for the most powerful energy source in this world. Of course, obstacles appeared and they overcame it and that's all. They actually spend about 9 episodes or so searching for that energy source. Pretty boring to me as it was sort of draggy. To be really honest, if the characters didn't display their body aspect to such extent, I would've dropped this anime long ago. Also, this anime focus far too much on…

Since your probably reading this just to test the waters for Dakara Boku wa, H ga Denkinai, I'm going to keep this review short. *MAL ratings are broken as helllll Overall, this ecchi anime is perfect.It is comedic, cute, exciting and unlike most, this actually has a story and i'snt a harem. All the characters are as believable as they can get in a 12 episode ecchi. Keep in mind that this is a casual anime, it's not a work of art but it is at its core, a ball of fun and has actually pretty decent romance. Also its not stupidly ero or ridiculous so it does have a slight "realistic" feeling to it. *I wish this anime was extended!!! Story: The story flows well, although it was a bit slow at the beginning, most animes are, in order to set the story and introduce the everyone. It will actua…

I watched this because someone recommended it, with the bold statement 'It's better than Highschool DxD!' I am a massive DxD fan, of both the anime and the LN series. Challenge Accepted. Upon completion of this I realized that that recommendation was done by someone who was either A) High or B) Hadn't actually seen DxD. This anime doesn't hold a candle to it. Not to say, if you like your usual action/fanservice fapfest, that isn't watchable. Story - 6 I got the feeling, from watching this, that there was a decent story in there somewhere but it was garbled and disjointed. Unfortunately I think it fell prey to that age old enemy of Good Plots.... Fanservice. Maybe if I watch it again and ignore all the bouncing boobies it might make a little more sense. Easier said than done though. Art…

Boku-H is a perfect example of what ecchi harem shows are about, and in this review, I am here to explain why our standards of appreciation must be adjusted to account for what actually makes these types of shows enjoyable. By the normal standards of grading entertainment, we usually define quality entertainment as intelligent in some way. Intelligent design for entertainment usually is produced through a well-thought out story and an interesting cast that has thought provoking development. Naturally, it is very easy to dismiss Boku-H as being a mediocre show when it does in fact have an uninspired story that feels rushed and confusing at its worst moments. Nobody is surprised by the usual boy meets fantasy girl who gets boy into sexy action packed adventures. I will be the first person t…

NOTE: Again, this review is only based on the anime. I haven't read both the light novel and the manga. EDIT: Some grammar check and minor addition of content. My opinion regarding the anime still remains the same. After I and my ecchi-addicted friend watched the first episode of "Dakara Boku wa, H ga Dekinai" (which we simply watched since I saw it here on MAL that it's like High School DxD), we both know that there's no sparks out there, trying to hook us - its watchers - to get into the anime. Despite that, we still continued to watch the anime. Although finishing the anime could be rewarding, I doubt that most people will have enough patience to last that long, with the anime's first four episodes not deviating from the usual ecchi anime formula, (with the clothes melting off and "OO…

This is a pretty good show, kinda weak, but still pretty good. It follows this guy whos an extreme pervert and the death god (female of course) that he lives with. This show is one of those where the writers might have gotten a little out of control with their rights. I mean the whole basis is that the death god cant live on earth without replenishing energy so she decides to make a contract where she can suck his energy out. Thing is, for him to energize himself (heres where the fanserve comes into play) he has to be turned on/horny/have a raging boner etc. and to accomplish this he basically runs around copping a feel on anyone he sees and meanwhile there is supposed to be some touching romance story going on in the background... btw this is kinda a harem in a sense. Even better is the f…

'Dakara Boku wa, H ga Dekinai' is your average ecchi rom-com with a few interesting twists thrown in here and there. That said and whether it's intentional or not, this anime has a lot of similarities with other well known series and if you're an anime savvy watcher it feels like many plot points here have been done before in a strikingly similar way elsewhere. The story is banal and doesn't really require much in-depth description. The male lead, Ryosuke Kaga, is the stereotypical high school anime pervert and lives out his days oblivious to the powers high above. One day he meets a redhead death god, Restall Risara, who happens to be on a hunt for the human with the highest amount of spiritual energy, or the "special specimen" as it's called in this anime. The first episode already loo…

If you're looking for an ecchi show, one that's filled with fan-service, one that has a perverted teen in his puberty years thinking about lewd thoughts, or a High School DxD clone, then look no further. So, I Can't Play H (also known Dakara Boku wa, H ga Dekinai) is a series about a group of breasts with a perverted protagonist who makes the deal of his short life with a beautiful Shinigami, or in English terms, a grim reaper during a wet and rainy night. ~ The Deal Or maybe known as the story. Well, the overall tone of the story is predictable and filled with common cliché, gags, and fan-service. The young boy Ryosuke Kaga (also better well known as Ero-suke, which in my opinion is the better name that suits him considering his nature) plays the main role of the protagonist. He is a pe…
