#8: Eden of the East
“Saki said you have a great, big Johnny. May I see it?”
Also wins for 2009:
- Best Guy Girl Sex Scene
- Most Impressive Johnny
- Best New Starlet
- John Holmes Lifetime Achievement Award
I knew nothing of Eden of the East when I first watched it, and I was hooked by the time Taki was waving his Johnny in front of Obama’s health care plan. I felt like Jack Horner stumbling on Dirk Diggler for the first time. What a talent! Just excellent work by Production IG. I just couldn’t believe that Kenji Kamiyama (of Ghost in the Shell fame) would stray from his bread and butter of some futuristic governmental conspiracy to do a harem anime about a guy who cannot ejaculate for thirty days because, if he does, he releases the Demon Queen thus ushering in the end of the world. So, of course, everything and everyone is trying to get Taki to ejaculate.
And just a fantastic cast… from the succubus temptress (and very non-frumpy) Saki to the girl-next door Kuroha to Mr. Outside, pr0n director who first scouts Taki… and I especially enjoyed the cameos from Tiger Woods and Jesse James… just an A+ cast. I would have ranked Eden of the East higher, but it does get a bit too fanservice-y (especially the ending featuring 10,000 nakkid Mio-class meido) and the production values are kinda bland. Production IG could (and should) have done a much better job on the sloppy backgrounds.
(April Fools! If you’re curious, check out My Balls. And, yes, I purposefully worded that sentence that way.)

I hope that Higashi no Eden being nr9 is also part of the joke.
Yeah, very sloppy backgrounds, almost as bad as Durararas
Nice one, Jason.
black87: Obviously. It’s #8.
At first I was going think that surely we weren’t watching the same show but then I realized that because of the sheer awesomeness of the show you just described that I must have completely blocked it out so my mind could not be permanently damaged.
I would have liked it more if the DC portion used real Americans instead of that broken english.
I’m just confused about how taki always speaks japanese, but english speakers still seem to understand him and vise verse. is that his mutant power?
Your feed’s universal translator must be buggy.
You’re confused alright, kaze. Don’t underestimate the ability to understand foreign sentences using a couple keywords. Especially since everything else is basically gibberish, core terms stand out and that’s why people can guess the meaning (: . It’s happened to me. It’s as if the bolg etrny wsa wttrin liek tihs, you’d still get it.
son of a bitch…. i actually read that manga/hentai and didnt see this show and was about to rush home and dled this!! This and the bump app`s fools pranks are most cruel ;-(
