Central Park Media returns with Part 4 in the continuing anime saga of sex and violence that is known as Nightmare Campus. All of your old favorites are back for another round of demon action as well as participation in some truly graphic scenes of debauchery that are definitely NOT for the kiddies. Once again, Disney this ain't folks, so if you're not easily offended and looking to be shocked, disgusted and thoroughly entertained - then read on!
Spoiler Warning!!!! It's going to get to a point in which it'll be nearly impossible for me to discuss the storyline of each episode as they are released without giving away important plot points. That's right, I'm giving away a lot of shit in the next paragraph or so about the story (more so than usual), so if you wanna go in fresh (as the kids say these days) then you'd best skip over the next paragraph and run home crying to yo mama! Also, be sure to read my review for Volume 1 here, Volume 2 here and Volume 3 here!
Volume 4 begins as Akira is sucumbing to the sadistic sexual desires of the evil gods. He tries to fight it, but to no avail. In the mean time, Masao has been hiding out, eventually brought back into the picture by rival gang members. It's decided that a revolt against the gods is exactly what's needed in order to take the school back and Masao (as the demon lord Esedess) will lead the pack. In the mean time the gods have decided to use Yuuko against Masao, bait that just can't be ignored. I hope you're prepared for lots of monster cock (did I just say that?) because there is PLENTY to go around.
We're obviously approaching the climax here (pun intended), the end is very near. While there were a few more goofy throw away charcters this go round then I usually like to see, I have to admit that I'm still thoroughly entertained by this series and eagerly await the next volume. I dug the banding of the gang members (good or bad), turning Yuuko all sexilicious and shit, not to mention the fact that this had to have been the most nastily filled sex episode to date. I really should be ashamed of myself. Even more so than before, this episode also contained some pretty cool lighting effects and some extremely interesting ummm, angles and perspectives.
Quality wise, Nightmare Campus continues to look quite good on DVD. There's really no evidence of print damage and colors are generally sharp and vibrant. The stereo surround track available in Japanese or English with optional yellow English subs also fares quite well. Surround tracks don't offer much to the viewer, but that's OK because the front separation is handled quite well. Both audio tracks (English and Japanese) are comparable in depth of sound and clarity.
Extras remain similar from previous releases including a brief art and sketch gallery along with a host of trailers for other Central Park Media titles. Also featured is a segment called Anime Artform, which provides an insight into this type of animation geared towards beginners. Also included is a host of DVD ROM features including more galleries and production notes/credits.
Still loving it here folks. Quality wise, Nightmare Campus ranks up there as one of the most enjoyable hentai series I've discovered in quite some time. Things pick up quite well this go round, and I'm digging the direction that the tail end of the series is taking. Holy monster cock Batman, I think we have a winner!
