Malice@Doll: Recommendations?

Death Scythe
An odd title, this: it's an apparently little-known OAV that seems to have been snuck onto the shelves under the cover of darkness since I've heard precious little about it.

The themes of 'sex robots' and bleak cyberpunk backgrounds make it sound a little dodgy but quite interesting at the same time. That and the fact that there's an impressive roll call of staff: Keitaro Motonaga (Patlabor, Crest of the Stars) and Chiaki J Konaka (Lain, BGCT 2040, Texhnolyze, RahXephon).

If this isn't some sort of sci-fi hentai title I'll give it a look. Anyone else heard of it?
 
Erm seeing as it is rated 15 uncut by the BBFC. There is no way that this title is hentai. The US "recommended rating" for it is 17+ aswell once again under the hentai 18+ rating. So you can safely bet its fairly adult, but not porn.
 
Check that link again, that's the rating for the DVD extras. This is the rating for the actual feature:

I've not seen it, but apparently it's a bit hentai-ish. But it has a story, so its not outright porn or anything. apparentky it's only dolls and robots who get tentacled up, and not real humans, which is probably why it got through uncut. But as I say, I've not seen it, so I can't comment too much on it...
 
I saw this what seems years ago on dvd, rented from an online place iirc, it wasn't hentai-ish to me unless you count someone dressed in semi bondage gear as such
Anyways I hated it as it was just plain weird
 
Well, I don't like porn anime but I do like stuff that's plain weird...I think I'll give this a try. Cheers all :D No doubt I'll send Paul a review for it one way or the other!
