Eiken 6/10

This show doesn't just cross the line between good and bad taste, it sprays plain yogurt on it in a very suggestive manner but like Thrills gum, you get used to it.

This 2 episode OAV set is pretty recent so the whole thing looks and sounds really good overall. The character designs are great but a little on the creepy side with the ENORMOUS BREASTS most of them have. I mean HUGE! The animation quality is really good throughout and everything is extremely colourful but not too overdone. The backgrounds are good and the VA's were about average except for the green haired teacher who's whiny tone drove me nuts and the little sister Yuriko who's voice made me laugh. The music was alright and nothing really stood out, bad or good. The 2 episodes of Eiken jiggled onto home video back in2003.

The story here is pretty thin. This kid named Densuke has enrolled in the gigantic Zashono Academy to attend high school. He is quickly roped into joining the school Eiken club after falling on (and accidentally fondling) the shy (and busty) Chiharu. The question must now be asked, what is the Eiken club exactly? Well we never really know. Densuke is the only guy in the club, the rest of the members are all rather well-endowed in the hooters department, and they enter club competitions that make up the bulk of the 2 episodes. It seems the club is rather exclusive buy WHY?

The plot mainly focuses on Densuke pining over Chiharu and the harassment he undergoes by Chiharu's little sister who has a thing for our hero. Each episode ends with the Eiken club competing in a somewhat perverted competition involving things like sucking frozen bananas, swimming through a pool filled with eels (yes, THAT happens), and of course sliding as a team down a water slide filled with yogurt or chocolate sauce. Of course the rest of the show is filled with jiggling, bouncing, and suggestive situations but oddly very little nudity. Oh well.

This show is a little disturbing at first with the truly heroic level of fan-service but you'll get used to it by the second episode. Recommended...if you're into that sort of thing. Heh heh.
