moo?
Ok, I've been wondering for awhile now... Mahou Shoujo Ai has had Episodes 1-4 released since early 2006, just wondering if anyone has any info on weather they're going to decide on releasing Episode 5... as i've been waiting for it for quite some time. :/

Is it because episode 5 contains "loli"? otherwise I dont see why they're being so half-assed about it, meh.

wasn't the delay because it wasn't licensed thus it wouldnt be uncensored or is it?
>> moo?
Thats why I'm asking, Episodes 1 through 4 has been licensed, but not 5, Why? Its been 2 years already.
>> moo?
And according to AnimeOnDvd.com the latest Episode(#4) has been licensed and released on 02/28/2006
But, Episode 5 will be released on 12/12/2012.... wtf?

Highly Recommended for all you tentacle-lovers out there, by far the best tentacle anime(in my opinion) rating maybe Inma Seidan 2nd best.

If thats sarcasm I find your response hilarious. Well I spat my coffee everywhere even if its not.
>> moo?
Taimanin Asagi is aright... it gives off a different vibe... not really to my tastes, and the story is... blah.

Mahou Shoujo Ai and Inma Seiden actually have a decent story and succeeded in providing Great H-scenes along with it.

I just e-mailed Japananime.com (the guys who made Mahou Shoujo Ai) and this is the surprising swift response I got:

As for your question regarding the release date, the company, Rightstuf, usually puts unknown future release dates as 12/12/2012.
Currently we do not have any new information regarding the Sexy Magical Girl series. Please check back to our Japananime.com website for any new updates regarding the Sexy Magical Girl series. Thank you for your inquiry and the strong support.

the more you know...

Actually "Milky" are the ones who made/produced MAhou Shoujo Ai, JapanAnime is just an American licensing company. But yea, apparently they just got lazy or something is preventing them from licensing it, as its been 2 years... owell.

Actually, I'm pretty sure I thought I heard from somewhere andd even saw a page that stated JapanAnime had licensed the episode, they just haven't been getting around to releasing it.

I have no idea why though or if that's true. I don't even really care for episode 5, beacuse of how WTF it is, but it does really piss me off when h-anime series don't get completely brought over to the US, I really fucking hate that.

You ask her if she was willing to do some live cosplay?

If they don't plan to release the licensed version, we'd be better off knowing. With all the fansubbing groups for h-movies cropping up lately, maybe one of them would pick it up to at least sub the raw version if they knew it was never going to be released.

Not that you really need dialogue to enjoy it, but it does detract from it a bit if you don't understand moonspeak.
>> Ehhh.....

...decent story? The actual "story" appears to primarily be about the spontaneous, senseless romance between the female lead and the guy who somehow manages to get every girl around him, including her, tentacle raped, something most of the girls he cares about in the series don't particularly seem to enjoy.

Apparently she likes him because he got her a plushy?

It's still hot, but don't go throwing the plot card. It's a fucking hentai OVA.

Somebody posted yesterday that hentai uncensored over here in the USA is hurting Japanese sales cause customers know they can just wait a few months and then get uncensored version from a DL. Kinda makes sense.

The solution to that problem is of course for Japan to uncensor all of their shit.

It's not just the uncensoring. The bigger issue is they charge ~$50-$70 per 20-30 minute OVA, whereas they sell for about half that over here. Even with the probably ridiculous shipping costs of having it imported, it's still cheaper. I think one of the ways they were considering to counter this was to not have the japanese audio tracks on the english licensed version, which would of course probably kill the market for it over here, given their target audience.

I'm assuming they charge this much because they need the income, and that income has become extremely lacking over the last several years because of the internet and downloading.

What are you, retarded? They're overcharging to make windfall profits, and the gouged customers have had enough. If they adjusted prices people would buy it instead of wait months and months. It's called supply and demand, and in their greed they are killing the goose. THEY'RE KILLING THE FUCKING GOOSE.

I would say it's probably more of a combination of the fact that things in japan are more expensive in general, production costs are much higher than your standard porn, and you're looking at a much smaller audience. Regardless of how much more popular h-movies are over there compared to here, you're still looking at a niche audience in the grand scheme of things.

That being said, anime production companies are notorious for not really caring about their audience outside japan. What does it matter, as long as they make their money there. The demand and economy here is such that we won't pay their ridiculous prices, and we also aren't bound by archaic censorship laws that apply to something minors aren't supposed to get ahold of anyway. If that means their primary audience decides to import it from a secondary audience where it's cheaper and better, and messes their shit up, then fuck the secondary audience.

At least they can't whine about how fansubbers are ruining the market for it when they've decided to ignore us as a market completely.
