Kanokon 3- You're The Man Kouta

I really don’t think there is a clever caption that would add to this scene

Going through the first two-thirds of this episode you’d wonder, “hey this is like some sort of cheesy lovecom show or a parody of such.” Well at some point the show forays into a minute of attempted plot and then straight back to naked oil rubbing and an array of spankings. I was scared for a bit there that I was watching the wrong show, but alas in the end all was good in the world.

Ah, the death knell, one of my favorite animation effects. It was a bit weird seeing Chizuru try the very girly homemaker route to win Kouta’s heart. Of course she’s horrible at household activities and makes the first of many attempts on Kouta’s life with her horrid cooking.

Well we can categorize the first 2/3 of the episode into two categories- really cheesy and stupid romantic comedy hijinks and funny parodies. This part falls into the first category because on the first watch it made me roll me eyes rather than laugh, although Kouta gets a couple of man points for saying he’s happy she’s trying so hard from him. And I think this marks the first trip to school in which Chizuru’s breasts do not make contact with Kouta.

On the other hand Nozomu does make breast contact, and the tsundere/transfer student sequence falls under the funny parodies category. Now, I am a self-styled tsundere extraordinaire so I found myself laughing at Nozomu’s totally deadpan delivery of the obvious stereotyped lines such as the one pictured above. I did find the commentary from the other students to be kind of annoying, I didn’t need them to tell me what was going on but maybe some did.

The bento competition was kind a kind of amusing twist on the normal lovecom bento making. The two ladies pulled out their best weapons, deadly food and the guilt trip, but Kouta took the man’s way out and committed seppuku. I salute you Great Erotic King, my hero!.

Um, there was some plot here about spirits not being allowed to hang around humans and such, but I really wasn’t paying much attention. I think we crossed that line of “hanging out” with humans back in the first episode when Chizuru kissed and possessed Kouta.

Of course not, I’d never dream of it! Please don’t hurt me!

kanokon1-07.jpg

The iinchou basically tells Kouta to grow some balls and and tell Chizuru and Nozomu that they can’t cook or he’s going to be a corpse. Well, the iinchou sure has a lot of air time, despite the fact that her character is pretty boring so far. I’m a fan of iinchou characters but usually only when they are tsundere for the lead. And so far she is far from it.

Loli in a tub. Well, up to this point we seem to be trapped in some sort of regular lovecom show that I’ve seen a million times with a couple of funny twists. I was kind of afraid that the show was going to go down that route. Now fortunately, the show at this point decided that we’d had enough of that. So, they said “hey, can we think of something really really perverted in order to swing this show back to awesome?” The answer was “oh hell yes.”

kanokon1-09.jpg

And this was the solution, nearly naked full body oil rubbing. Personally, I was not aware that if you place a loli in a tub you can get her to secrete oil that requires you to give a full body rub to a shouta. That knowledge is now firmly planted in my brain. Ah, welcome back Kanokon, it was a short trip down lovecom lane.

Poor guy gets rubbed with body to body contact and the girls decide to have a foot fight and rub his package. Well, being a man he can’t really help himself, but instead of a slick and manly line he just gets all red in the face. Missed opportunities man, missed opportunities. By the way, I think the loli in the tub sat there the whole time and watched. Food for thought.

kanokon1-11.jpg

Well we had our oil rub and then the writers said, “well is it even possible to top that?” It turns out that yes it is possible to top that, and when Kouta said that he was going to spank Chizuru for being a bad girl I think it was all over for me. It was both extremely titillating and undoubtedly hilarious. I mean the fact that Chizuru obviously set this up and was encouraging him to spank her made it even better.

kanokon1-12.jpg

And when he said he was going to spank her he was dead serious, holy moly that was a loud spank. That thing echoed all over. 5,000 man points for you Kouta, even though you had to be tricked and coaxed into it, I really can’t remember the last time a non-porn male lead in anime actually spanked a girl raw. The fact that I was able to even write that last sentence is a testament to the Great Erotic King. Oh, and did I mention that he kept spanking her, even more man points for you sir! All hail Kouta!

Next Episode:
Nurse iinchou, bunny girl Chizuru, meido Nozomu, one expects the show is going to move onto perverse and degenerate portrayals of cosplay and culture fairs. Excellent.

    Yes, there is. It’s right here.

    Once again Kanokon delivers crazy fanservice. I wonder how far they will go. It would be great if Kouta stopped being passive, cause the wimpy doormat male lead is what usually drags this kind of show down.

    Kanokon has now crossed the line of ecchi into soft-core territory. Damn, Im loving this show more and more!!

    You are right, the latter part of this episode really made up for the first one.

    And now please, give the whimpy male lead a spine – at least some normal male’s reactions (Or did they cut off Kouta’s manhood at some point in the past oO).

    Oh and of course, please stay away of anything even remotely to a plot, it just wont fit into my brainless fanservice anime.

    That loli in the tub…I think she have been scared for life after sitting there and watching Kouta get rubbed by a fox and a wolf…lol

    This is totally softcore porn alright. I mean, it has all sorts of fetishes – even S&M.

    @bearzerger

    Well, he did himself come up with the spanking idea, even though it was coaxed out of him, and he kept doing it. Lastly he finally decided to “scold” her, albeit kind of lamely. So he’s becoming less and less of a doormat but progress is slow.

    @Setsuna-san

    It will get even better next week =)

    @Versus

    In the first 3 episodes they’ve devoted a total of like 90 seconds to 2 minutes to “plot,” so I would hazard a guess to say they really have little interest in that. Thank god.

    @Dando008

    Looking at that scene again for uh, educational purposes, yeah she seemed quite distressed. But then again voyeurs gotta start somewhere…

    @Zeroblade

    Bestiality, lolicon, feet, voyeurism, S&M…the list goes on. Next week is all sorts of costume fetishes- meido, bunny girl, nurse. Good lord.

    The only awesome thing about this show is how far it goes.

    Thank God for this anime. Imagion having only ToLoveRU, Yotsunoha, Nabari no Ou, Vampire Knight, Kamen no Maid Guy, and that other one about the guy taking care of the lonely girl, to look forward to each week. As far as new releases go, I can be satisfied with just this.

    @Leviathan

    Well that is the central theme of the show, to see how far they can go up to the line of it being hentai. But that’s the fun of it, the tease.

    @JagvsShodan

    I think “that other one about the guy taking care of the lonely girl” is Kure-nai.
