A Review of Hentai Koiito Kinenbi

Premise

Around the latter half of 2014, I was still new to the hentai genre as a whole. I had mostly consumed ecchi content up until this time, avoiding hentai in part because I could not understand the appeal of rape, blackmail, netorare, tentacle sex, and so on. Because I was unaware of the potentials the genre held, I simply did not know that the vanilla sub-genre was all that common.

That changed once I encountered the series I'm now reviewing. To put it concisely, Koiito Kinenbi has to be the first ever hentai I have thoroughly enjoyed. For someone who could not yet understand the appeal of the more hardcore genres, I could not imagine a series more appropriate for a beginner such as myself.

Firstly, the plot is relatively unique for a vanilla hentai. Koitto Kinenbi, by the way, is based on doujinshi TakayaKi's manga of the same name. The narrative presents us with three sets of stories, one of which spans both episodes. This main story is between Okunaga Kanako, an apartment manager, and the slightly younger Yuuji. In later scenes, Kanako's mother and sister, Yurie and Anna, respectively, join the series of events. Our second story shows the evolving relationship between Himeno and a classmate. Lastly, Aisha and Sasha star in the last feature, one with a Christmas setting at that.

Thoughts

The scenes in Koiito Kinenbi play out sort of as if it is a comedic, romantic slice-of-life. That's really satisfying.

Now, the plot is not going to overcome a series such as Clannad After Story, of course, but there is real effort here for a hentai. You'll notice this particularly with the main story because the longer run time allows the relationship between the characters to grow. Even with the emphasis on the exaggerated humor, not everyone suddenly has intercourse with another person without substantial reasoning. I say "not everyone" because this still does happen at some point in all of the stories.

Additionally, reverse netorare does occur. I find it rather intriguing that this potentially was my first introduction to this genre, and ironically, I love it even though I am not all that fond of regular netorare. There are major differences between these flavors of netorare, mainly in the mood, as I stated in my review of Reunion.

Nevertheless, rather making love as part of a nefarious act, it is clear the characters engage in these behaviors out of love and/or humor and satisfying the other person(s) involved. I can overlook its few areas I do not find ideal because of that and give it a 10 out of 10.

Tl;dr: If you like vanilla hentai with a series of stories which have a moderately better than average execution, then you may enjou this.

Sir or Madam, would you like some GIFs with that?
