You know like when you read the stuff on the back of a hentai package, and then it says what it says, but then when you actually watch it, the story or at least the details are significally different than what you were expecting to happen because of what you read about the it? I find that in the Duchess of Busty Mounds, it says that:
Quote:
John's father was a disgraceful womanizer
yet I didn't hear that at all in the movie, or that the character is supposed to inherit his grandfather's plantation, thus every women is duchess is trying to get into bed with. After he's f***** all the girls do we find out that he'll be inheriting his grandfather's plantation.
Anyone care to add more insight to this?

This is important because I wouldn't want to watch a hentai thinking it's going to be about a hardened criminal raping every woman in sight only to find out it's actually a door-to-door salesman raping every woman in sight

I mean it just ruins the whole thing for me

Well, at least the plot attempts in hentai aren't usually as disgraceful as the ones in normal porn. Even if they are misleading at least it isn't something like "A single amazon against an army trying to defeat aliens in the most sensual ways possible". That kind of shit makes me want to cry at how idiotic it is before I remember why I got it in the first place. Some actually come up with mildly sensible plots though. I guess it depends on how much money the people have.

Well thats true...lets all count our blessings for that. On the "is it wrong to like anime girls thread" it was brought up by ironwarrior that the quality of recent hentai stories had fallen which I agree with but it thankfully hasn't fallen to low. I do have to say that it is a bit misleading in the description, I was looking for anime and I came across one that said "a female teacher struggles to take control of her out of control class" my first thought was this is going to be like Gokusen but I quickly realized that they meant what they said the teacher "was" struggling to control her class...sextually that is. It definatly surprised me but I kept it anyways, it wasn't half bad. Razz

In all honesty, I don't believe the creators of these "masterpieces" spend a whole lot of time writting descriptions. They are more concerned with the visual aspects of their productions.
