Blue Seed (碧奇魂 ブルー シード Aokushimitama Burū Shīdo) is a Japanese manga written and illustrated by Yuzo Takada. It was animated for broadcast on TV Tokyo in 1994.

The story is based on the Izumo cycle of Japanese mythology and the tale of the god Susanoo and the eight-headed monster Yamata no Orochi. The main character, Momiji Fujimiya, is a descendant of the mythical Princess Kushinada (奇稲田姫 Kushinada-hime). When Japan is menaced by Aragami (荒神 Aragami, lit. "angry gods") spawned by Yamato-no-Orochi, Momiji is intended to be sacrificed to appease the Aragami. She instead, however, becomes a member of the Terrestrial Administration Center (TAC), a secret agency charged with fighting them.

The series ran for 26 episodes, originally airing in Japan from 5 October 1994 to 29 March 1995. An OVA, "Blue Seed Beyond", was made in 1996. The anime is licensed by ADV Films in the U.S.

Soap no Moko-Chan (1996)

Soap no Moko-Chan (1996)

Alternative Names (異名):
SoapのMokoちゃん, Soap no Moko-Chan, My Fair Masseuse

Genres: Comedy, Erotica
Ratings: 19+
Year: 1996


Moko is a girl with a voracious sexual appetite. She works in a massage parlor where she gets paid to do the things she enjoys the most. It's a kinky job and Moko just loves it! Being the hard-working and dedicated girl that she is, Moko always makes sure that her customers get their money's worth. She is only satisfied when they are. Whether it's pleasuring the old or the young, it makes no difference to Moko. Pretty soon, Moko becomes the most sought-after masseuse in the parlor. Can her stamina keep up with the demand?

Soap no Moko-Chan isn't really a plot-oriented anime. It's simply about a charming and enthusiastic masseuse named Moko. Soap no Moko-Chan is, however, amusing and really quite hilarious! The mood is generally very light and cheerful, as it treats sex as an activity people enjoy. There's no rape, torture, or any form of abuse / oppression. There is a whole lot of sex (like every five minutes or so) but none involving monsters, animals, or plant life. It's all conventional human male-female intercourse done in a wide variety of positions. Anatomical parts are rendered in their full uncensored glory and yes, that includes even the male organs.

Soap no Moko-Chan is divided into three subsections - the first of which features Moko being stalked by an obssessed admirer with a perpetual erection. The second part is about a college guy whom Moko helps with his pathetic lovelife. The third part tackles Moko's new-found popularity and how she deals with a very loooong line of eager customers.

The art and animation are attractive enough, not the absolute best but suitable for the series. Soap no Moko-Chan is simply entertainment, so if you're looking for a profound plot and complex characters, this definitely isn't it. But if you just want to sit back, have a few laughs, and get a truckload of uncensored sex... this could be what you're looking for.
