Dream Hunter Rem

Introduction

In a shabby building hidden in the back alleys of Tokyo, there is a detective's office that will take any case. Run by the youthful Rem Ayanokouji, the office specializes in bizarre cases where dreams and demons intersect. With the help of her two animal companions, Alpha and Beta, Rem uses her powers to enter her clients' dreams to confront their issues—as well as the demons tormenting them—directly.

The storytelling is very strange. It's often completely unclear which events follow from which, or why anything is happening at all. Random events, random characters, random scenes that seem important but ultimately lead nowhere. The anime itself is an original work, and only later received two manga adaptations, which are essentially senseless and merciless pornography in the worst sense of the word. For some reason, many reviews of the anime describe it as pornography as well. In reality, it isn't. There's some fanservice, but nothing particularly explicit. They don't even really show naked breasts — though, honestly, with this level of image quality, I wouldn't be eager to look at them anyway. The biggest problem is that there's barely a plot to speak of. Things happen, but rarely in…

This OVA series is kinda like a hidden gem. The art and animation is very well done (it was originally an hentai series but it was so well made that it became a real series. It's nothing special but its one of my favorites just because of how sheer fun it is. It tries to be everything at once but somehow succeeds a little at this. If you are very adamant on plot in shows then this is not for you. If you want a good fun short show then this might be for you. Has a lot of fanservice which might be a turn-off for some viewers but I enjoy it. It's kinda like early Yu Yu Hakusho with the ghost detective elements idk. Very hard but simple anime to recommend. It has all the 80s glory in it from the top notch soundtrack to the cheesy plot.

Quick take: Live action pornography doesn't have very good storylines either ... or so I've been told. There are many problems with this hentai-turned-legit series that I just found it hard to pay attention. Ill be honest, I want to like Dream Hunter Rem. You see, Dream Hunter Rem was a hentai. Then it turned out people liked it, so they threw some clothes on the characters and removed the penetration. What were left with is a storyline that had much potential but fails to deliver on the basics. Each story follows the same basic arc, although the 3rd OVA does switch it up. It was the best of the series in my opinion, but spent so much time explaining family history that I nearly fell asleep. I rewound several time to try and get the full picture in my head, but I'll be honest, I still don…

Dream Hunter Rem is one of my all-time favorite shows from ‘80s with a sexy, green-haired babe as the protagonist. Originally, Dream Hunter Rem was a hentai but if you watched the version that I did, the pornographic were edited out of the first episode and the later OVAs were adapted for TV due to the cult following. ○ Dream Hunter follows the tale of a badass dream detective, Rem, who, as the title designates, literally goes into the dreams of the victims of predatory monsters. Though there were tentacle things in other shows of the time, such as the scene in Urusei Yatsura with the gangly flower that forcefully ties Lum into its appendages, Dream Hunter REM fully incorporates the aesthetic into the demoniac battles. ○ Dream Hunter Rem practically pollinated the seeds of the famous ten…

Its been a while since I've watched this anime and it ain't up on the net anymore so here we go; based on memory Story - 8 The premise is unique for a magical girl anime; our young teen heroine is a long line of dream hunters, people able to enter others dreams and combat the demons that lurk within those vulnerable to their influence. The parallel story arcs concerning the real world and the dream world and the transitions between can get quite interesting. Otherwise, the anime takes a lot of elements from fantasy anime (Valis style magic swords vs huge monsters), magical girl, horror (Kruger style killed in your dreams) and spiritual/supernatural/mysticism (Monks, exorcism and demons). The anime even has cute little interludes where a Chibi REM gives you a crash course lesson about drea…
