Oppai combat manga Maken-Ki!’s 11th volume delivers a bonus OVA that showcases its voluptuous cast of characters in a typical bathhouse episode – and boasting its sexy new character designs by none other than heof Kanokon fame.
I still don't understand why they replaced Takeda Hiromitsu's art style. What, a genuine Hentai mangaka's style wasn't ero enough as is? Instead we get a way more generic style, for no discernible reason.
Probably has to do with being more efficient to animate in the new style(Xebec's signature style) rather than trying to replicate Hiromitsu's style to the dot while sacrificing the animation. Look up the term Kaneda style, it might broaden your knowledge in the animation process Japan employs for giving creative freedom to lead animators.
Are you insane? This is the most ecchi that Maken Ki has ever looked, not that it looked bad before. Just look at those nips. Not everyone is a fan of Akio Takami's style when it coems to faces though (Kanokon and Ladies X Butlers), I guess. I wish the director (Hiraku Kaneko) and the character animator (Akio Takami)had actually swapped places.
actually, if you look at certain scenes (like the scene with aki sensei) you can see that it's more along the lines of hirako kaneko's art style. that manyuu/seikon oppai style. akio takami's oppai style is a little softer, with a little more realism, and less intense (still awesome, but hirako kaneko's art is definitely more ecchi just because it's more intense).
overall, though, i think there was some blending of both's art style, even in other scenes, but not as much as in aki sensei's scene. it looks pretty good, imo.
no way, Manyuu and Seikon were leagues above most hentai animes in animation quality. most h-animes are so shittily/lazily done that it's nearly impossible to get aroused (unless, of course, you can ignore the shittyness). on the other hand, with Seikon/Manyuu, I was actually able to fap without any sex involved! MIRACLE.
hmmmm i might still give that to kagaku na yatsura, or the manyuu hikenchou specials (idk if those really count as ova's. i think they don't actually) but damn this was close. only thing that holds it back from the top spot, IMO, is that there was no OPPAI SUCKING. they teased us at one point, and i was like HERE IT IS, but then they blueballed everyone.
I usually don't get boners while watching anime, but dam! Just by watching those screenshots I had a massive boner unlike any other. Only a select few animes have done this. I'll definitely watch this anime for the plot I just hope I don't dirty my keyboard.
The fact that there wasn't any yuri making out considering the plot of this OVA was that they were all drunk is just...unacceptable. WTF is wrong with them? They should really be more aware of what the viewers want.
Indeed I mean, it's like they are aware that we like something involving girls and that they should be together but their brains halt before making the final connection.
The usual Xebec art... extremely MEATY lookalike girls with weird lookalike faces lol
If I'm not mistaken the only Xebec show with a different character design was Nyaruko. Everything else has those over-meaty girls (which I can stomach)
What's wrong with softer looking girls? Do you know how uncomfortable it is trying to sleep with a really thin girl whose hip bones are prominent and she gets angry because it hurts when you try to cuddle?
Shit ain't fun
(20:10 anon) Is the negativity and attitude on this site so bad that having a girlfriend is some thing that definitely has to be a lie?
Shit, if some of you knew how to treat ladies better and take care of yourselves and not deem them all as raging feminazis trying to take down your moe animu then maybe you could get a girlfriend.
Me = Dead from nosebleed
Needed more Nijou-sensei . . .

btw, i agree that this is easily the ecchiest of maken-ki's anime adaptations.
the tv show had sucky hentai quality animation, which is not a compliment.
No, it almost had Sucky Hentai quality animation. If you want Sucky Hentai quality then watch Manyuu or Seikon no Qwaser.

Sucky as in tit sucking bro
@09:53 - the joke went over your head >_< lol
the first season of maken-ki had sucky animation quality. the art was nice, but damn the animation was horrendous in some places.
This is what happens when kaneko hiraku (Hoods) and Akio Takami (Xebec), the greatest ecchi minds in the anime industry, unite to make an OVA.
*crying manly tears*
omg... Aki-sensei! <3
must....find....this....now!
the front page was so overwhelmed with pictures due to this articles that it scared me a bit
when do they fuck?
YES!
Brothers and sisters, I'm happy to announce today on what may go down as the sexiest OVA our nation has ever seen.
hmmmm i might still give that to kagaku na yatsura, or the manyuu hikenchou specials (idk if those really count as ova's. i think they don't actually) but damn this was close. only thing that holds it back from the top spot, IMO, is that there was no OPPAI SUCKING. they teased us at one point, and i was like HERE IT IS, but then they blueballed everyone.
Oppais everywhere
must find NOW!
The result is more oppai and less of the fantastic cameltoe that maken-ki was known for. There's enough oppai anime out there already.
so.. we needed the entire series of pictures on the main page.. why?
Oh what's that, you're an incompetent fucknut who can't even post articles to the site properly?
why is the entire thing on the front page lol
haha yeah someone dun goofed
You ask this as if it's a bad thing
Isn't it obvious? Could you choose just one or two pics for the front from these?
xebec
Pic #48-Yeah for large areolas! Other anime studio can learn from this.
Awesome plot.
Goofed the front page did yah.
also MUH DICK!!!! XEBEC IS THE BEST!
Best goof ever.
My dick exploded.
My Lower torso exploded.
I exploded.
my lower torso became a dick, which exploded. then i exploded.
DAMMMNNNNNN!!!! The really went all out on this one lol,
If we get this in the States with the second season DVD/BD consider it bought
OMFG!! Is Sankaku is so hyped about showing us this article, They said:
"To hell with sneak peeks! LET'S POST THE WHOLE DAMN THING UP FRONT!"
Sankaku, I applaud you sirs.
I usually don't get boners while watching anime, but dam! Just by watching those screenshots I had a massive boner unlike any other. Only a select few animes have done this. I'll definitely watch this anime for the plot I just hope I don't dirty my keyboard.
It shall never end! NEVER!!!
The fact that there wasn't any yuri making out considering the plot of this OVA was that they were all drunk is just...unacceptable. WTF is wrong with them? They should really be more aware of what the viewers want.

Glad to see there's another person who understands my dilemma.
Great art, shit story.
There was a story?!
They made blonde hoes tits bigger. Ruined only good character..
The usual Xebec art... extremely MEATY lookalike girls with weird lookalike faces lol
If I'm not mistaken the only Xebec show with a different character design was Nyaruko. Everything else has those over-meaty girls (which I can stomach)

Shit ain't fun
Yeah like we are going to believe you been with a skinny girl just plain out BS
What does it danm matter if she thin or fat really? Geez and here i thought woman where picky
