Like I said, I really do think "to each their
own" when it comes to things people like to watch
in their free time. I guess Overfiend just seems
like such a pointless piece of work, raunchy even
beyond the usual steriotypes attached to hentai
anime. Maybe if there were a plot. . . Or ultra-
superb artwork. . . Some other redeeming factor
to it. But there isn't. (*shrug*)
The other thing is, a lot of people who like
Tenshi ni Narumon (just to take your suggestion)
*also* like other more serious things - and I
assure you, I personally can imagine little that
would be scarier than, say, being trapped in an
elevator with a slavering Tenshi fan. ^_^; But a
lot of the people who like things like Overfiend,
tend to look only for more of the same. This is
completely from *MY* experience, mind you - your
milage may vary. But from the people I've met,
this is what I've found.
So I, at least, truly come from the middle of the
road. On the one hand, what I saw is something I
consider to be despicable and I wouldn't watch it
again. On the other hand, I almost wish I had
stuck around (ooo. . . bad choice of words. . .
^_^;;) for the infamous "tentacle scene", since I
hear so many people joking about it. (And no one
doubt Cheryl! Overfiend IS possibly the single
best known hentai anime!) I'm the type of person
that gets eaten alive by curiosity - not to
mention that it's a bit like a train wreck. It's
horrible to see, but you almost HAVE to look
since when are you ever going to see something
like that again? ^_^;;
Many Sharp Smiles,
