Mahou no Rouge Lipstick (original) (raw)

First, take note this was created by Otsuka Eiji, who also did MPD Psycho. I have no idea how I'd feel about the latter nowadays, since I started reading it around 2007 and when I finished the manga circa 2016, I'd barely remember the previous part; I was much younger so I can't say it was really sick and weird or just edgy. But I liked it at the time and it surely has some weird and psychological stuff.

So.. I really never got what's the deal with all this chibi fixation. I hate 99,5% of the chibi related anime stuff I had contact with in... my life. It's already a bad point for the anime enjoyment here. But I wouldn't watch a cheap and dusty VHS rip like this looking for something great; in fact, the fun is purely in the opposite.

The plot is completely incoherent, as you might expect of a title trying to fit so many random things into a 20 minutes OVA. It's a maho shoujo (it features the most useless sidekick of the genre, by the way) hentai about a little girl who gets a magical lipstick from an intergalactic 'salesman' pig that makes her a few years older to hit on her teenage friend's older boyfriend. You'll find a couple of (laughable) H scenes, some Megazone/Macross kind of mecha action, and a disco scene in which the lighting and colors + low quality made me briefly dizzy. There is some nice cheesy city pop music soundtrack. Gotta love the out of place soundtrack for H scenes in these OVAs - not saying that as the smooth jazz funk and psych rock from italian softcore makes more sense with the film situations. Oh, there are possibilities of the lipstick spell break and she returns to her original child body, so I don't have to tell you of how innapropriate is the ending sex scene.

Nonsense facepalm fun. Available from Kingmenu subs.
