I created this Sakuraoka gallery using sex scenes from the Gantz anime and touching up with Photoshop. As you may have noticed from watching the anime the colours and lighting are a bit off and could use some correcting.
I can't believe this is happening in a hallway with people nearby.
Teenage girl Kishimoto is surprised to see these two coupling.
Looks like a train is arriving. Maybe Kishimoto is symbolized by the train.
Uh oh. Kishimoto sees them having sex.
Kishimoto leaves. Suddenly Kurono and Sakuraoka are in the hallway again.
Sei also has a nice butt in the manga which you usually can't see because of the black suit.
As you may recall the setup for the sexual encounter is Kishimoto moving out of Kurono's place. When Kishimoto next appears in Gantz's room Kurono leaves in frustration. Sei follows, flirts a little and offers to help him because he was crying. Kurono takes a chance and asks for sex. Sei is shocked and calls him an idiot. In non-porn anime a horny lead character usually can't get laid. But she reluctantly agrees.
If the story was more realistic the sex would not happen at this point. Maybe Sei would give him an adult kiss like Misato did to Shinji in Evangelion. Then the story would be very different.
Here is a hentai video from Anime 18 you may find interesting. Our protagonist Kanzaki was a scientist of Atlantis in a previous life. He has three sexy android helpers Neptune, Kuaru and Karura who lived with him at his secret base the Tower of Babel. He seems to have been responsible for the destruction of Atlantis and history repeats itself with Kanzaki destroying the Earth. To help repopulate the world he needs the help of Queen Estrella of the Floating City Laputa. Estrella looks like Queen Serenity of the Moon Kingdom! She has silver hair done up in the odango style. Laputa is an Amazon society without men and Kanzaki must face many tests to earn the help of the Queen.
We also encounter a Jupiter look-alike. At first the ten-foot tall Amazon is unnamed but when the Queen betrays Kanzaki to his enemy Mutsuki she addresses her as "Jupiter"! Ultraman fans will be amused to see Jupiter transform into a 50 foot tall fighter to battle Neptune's giant mecha.
What do you think of Sailor Moon?
"The Sailor Moon you see here is a sanitized version. In Japan she is a much more sexualized character. My friend noticed that Sailor Moon wears a pendant that forms a kind of vaginal mold - her uniform also reminds me of a dildo harness that I saw once. She is a character of contradictions."
TOKYO - Like many Japanese schoolgirls, Megumi covets Louis Vuitton bags, Chanel perfume and other "must-have" designer goods.
And the 16-year-old has found a quick way to acquire them: through sex with men three times her age.
The illicit trysts leave her open to blackmail, crank calls and sexually transmitted diseases. Yet she says they also bring a titillating break boring schoolwork - and, at up to $1,000 per liaison, enable her to buy whatever she needs to assure her peer status.
"Girls in my schooI tend to be split up into the girls who have such things and girls who don't," Megumi explains matter-of-factly. "If you have the brand-name things, you're important."
The growing practice of older men meeting these "material girls" for enjo kosai - "compensated dates" - has triggered a public outcry here. Alarmed parents and authorities say the rendezvous are leading to more teenage prostitution, although men also compensate girls for dining with them at restaurants, for instance, or sitting with them on a park bench holding hands.
The main target of the public wrath is a boom in the business of "telephone clubs," in which girls can call men and decide after a conversation whether to meet them. The swift increase in such clubs has multiplied chances for men to find girls willing to accept "papas"- sugar daddies - experts say.
During the past few years, the number of clubs has skyrocketed to more than 2,200 across Japan. A recent national survey indicated that as many as 25 per cent of high school girls surveyed had called them at least once.
These discoveries have shocked Japan and led to anguished soul-searching over whether the nation's "bubble" era of the late 1980s and early 1990s, when land and stock prices soared and consumption grew lavish, grossly distorted centuries-old cultural values.
"Before the bubble, more traditional Japanese virtues - how one is looked at in the community, for example - held more weight," says Yukiko Hayami, a journalist who writes extensively about teenage culture. "But during the bubble ... the media spread the idea that earning money was a good thing, no matter how you did it. As a result, these girls have absolutely no feeling that what they're doing is bad."
Japan is agonizing about why increasing numbers of educated, middle class girls are responding to the men - even taking the initiative by calling the clubs.
The girls who use the clubs are a distinct minority of Japanese teens, and those who have sex with the men they meet are an even smaller group. Most say that, like Megumi, they make the calls out of sheer boredom with school or a desire for easy spending money, says Shinji Miyadai, a Tokyo sociologist.
Not all girls who make ealls actually meet men.. Kunise, 22, a college student, says she called the clubs a few times as a "joke" but would never go further.
Local governments are weighing the need for tougher laws against the clubs, newspapers are editorializing for stricter moral education, and church groups are appealing to teens with comic books that urge them to "just say no" to premarital sex.
In Tokyo, the metropolitan government is debating whether to make it illegal for adult men to have sex with girls under 18. Unlike the rest of the country, consensual sex with a minor is not a crime in Tokyo or in the nearby city of Nagano. Some oppose making such sex illegal here because of concern about prlvacy rights and worries that new laws would only highlight - and worsen - the problem. But others disagree.
"We must change the laws to prevent this problem, " says Akie Hatagawa of the group Stop Child Prostitution Action.
Nationwide in 1992, about 500 men were arrested for having sex with teenage girls they had met through telephone clubs. By 1995, that number had tripled.

"Sexy Moon" is a shot on video "movie" starring Taka Katoh and Ryo Kurihara. Basically it centers on the somewhat unusual adventures of a very attractive Japanese female student. One thing that's unusual is the way discipline is administered at her school. When she falls asleep in class, not only is she ordered to stand in the hallway holding the requisite two pails of water (Sailor Moon and anime fans should recognize that scenario), but she also has to have sex with her teacher! She doesn't seem to mind very much though and she does this several times throughout the movie. My favorite part was when one of her instructors gets VERY angry with her and hoses her down in the shower fully clothed (well, she's fully clothed part of the time anyway). Why he does this I have no idea but it's pretty sexy (the film wasn't subtitled...guess there's not much chance that VKLL will be doing THIS one). Also, there's this weird security guard she talks with from time to time. I think he's supposed to be some kind of anime/manga fan but I'm not sure.
Anyway after having sex with one of her teachers (again) our heroine seems to have lost her clothes! What's a girl to do? Why, put on her Sailor Moon outfit of course! And she does! The SM costume is actually pretty decent looking. Also her hair, which she'd worn straight throughout the film, is now suddenly done in 2 Usagi-like pony tails. All in all she makes for a pretty hot looking Sailor Moon! She runs through the halls of the school a lot talking to herself until she meets the security guard who now seems angry with her! Everyone seems to be angry with this poor girl!
Somehow the guard gets our protaganist tied up and proceeds to do the nasty with her while she's wearing her SM costume. She resists at first (she IS tied up so it starts out as a bondage thing) but eventually she gives in quite willingly (this is a Japanese "pink" film remember?). Anyway, this is the highlight of the movie and it should appeal to Sailor Moon fetishists everywhere!
The film ends with our heroine getting ready for school the next day. Some guy is in her room, one of her teachers I think, so she proceeds to turn into Sailor Moon again and bonks him over the head with her crescent wand! Afterwards she turns to the camera and says the fampus line; "on behalf of the moon, I'll punish you!" Oh yeah, the ending credits mention that part 2 is on the way! I can hardly wait!
I don't know if the girl is actually supposed to BE Sailor Moon or just someone who likes dressing the part. The caption under the film's opening title definately reads "Usagi-chan" but beyond that the copy I have is too fuzzy to get any kind of an accurate translation. Near the end of the film she does seem to magically trasform into her uniform so maybe she really is Sailor Moon! In any event, she is VERY attractive and looks pretty good in costume. Still, it's not really a very good movie. It's a very low budget affair and the lighting and photography are not especially good. It's only about 60 minutes long which is about average for direct to video pinku eiga. The film is VERY explicit and would be rated X here in the US. However all pubic nudity is optically censored as is the norm for such films from Japan. I really wouldn't recommend this to anyone unless he (or she) was a die-hard Sailor Moon hentai. Hey, it worked for me though!
TOKYO (Reuter) - Faced with an alarming rise in groping incidents on packed commuter trains, Tokyo police have asked railway companies to introduce women-only cars during rush hours.
Officers at Ueno station, the third busiest terminal in Tokyo, arrested 34 molesters in the first nine months of this year, almost double the figure for the same period in 1996, a police official says.
In one case, a 28-year-old male passenger not only regularly molested a female passenger, but also stalked her from the train to her office and home.
The man was caught when the woman enlisted the help of male co-workers, who caught the offender in the act on a train, the official says.
When the man was arrested, he told police he targeted the victim after seeing another man molest the woman on a train.
In a bid to end the problem, police have asked railway companies to introduce women-only cars and increase the number of trains on heavily packed routes, the official says.
Other measures include a publicity blitz warning against molesters and regular announcements by conductors encouraging women to report gropers.
Ten years ago, railway companies experimented with women-only carriages but abandoned the trial when females travelling in mixed carriages complained they had become greater targets.
The companies also say it is almost impossible to add more trains to already saturated rush-hour schedules. On some lines, there is a train every other minute.
With Tokyo trains so crowded that special staff are used to push passengers into carriages, molesters often use the congestion to escape detection.
"We cannot prevent chihan (groper) crimes unless we get co-operation from train companies," the police official says. "We are asking women who have suffered from abuse to report cases before the fondlers escalate their attacks."

In the movie The Terminator the future is run by robots bent on wiping out mankind. Androids ruled by a free thinking super computer have turned on those that created them. This Hollywood vision of the future is based on the Western fear that computers, when they achieve their own 'personality' will deem us unnecessary and wipe us out. A concern that stems from the computers-are-taking-our-jobs mentality of the west. Always petrified of the unknown (note: the subject of every American horror flic), the American working class is scared computers are smarter than us and want to hurt us. The western race for Artificial Intelligence (AI) is run by IBM, the defence industry and just about everyone else in the high tech business with a military bent. We're spending billions to achieve the next plateau of science by building a war computer that can think for itself while the Japanese are using AI to make: weird pop stars, horny girlfriends and little dogs who shit themselves if not walked on time.
Tamagotchi is a cheap micro-computer that stores can barely keep on their shelves. After taking over Asia, the toy has recently become a hit here in North America. So popular in fact, several Ontario Junior Highs have banned them from class because they're too much of a distraction (some of the more ambitious students will have several on the go at one time). This charming gadget is a little plastic bubble that encapsulates a video screen where a little pet lives. You have to manipulate tiny buttons that feed the pet, clean up it's shit, walk it and put it to sleep, and if you forget the pet will die. Pets were a substitute for human affection and now Japan is using primitive AI as a substitute for pets. It's enough to give a Detroit construction worker a year's worth of nightmares.
These digital animals have created a market for other, more sophisticated consumer products such as Asian Girlfriend, a popular Japanese computer program that has just recently been introduced here. She's a Japanese babe with big doe eyes but there are several variations to choose from including hetero- or homosexual and the daring new Asian Boyfriend model. You can dress her up and give her a voice. She welcomes you home, asks if you are hungry, talks to you when you are lonely, always has nice encouraging comments. She does everything a real girlfriend does, including sex, with promises of several different positions, cutting edge graphics and soundblaster audio. From Tamagotchi to Asian Girlfriend, virtual pet to virtual partner, these products are embracing the changes that technology is creating in our society while, at the same time, paving the way for much more sophisticated programs. As the game states, "The Virtual Girlfriend and Virtual Boyfriend are artificial intelligence programs, meaning they are completely interactive."
The next progression on this road to a free thinking electronic entity is Kyoko Date, a sixteen year-old pop star who chews gum and loves dancing. She poses for photo shoots and her music videos are in heavy rotation. She is also the spokeswomen for several Asian companies. Kyoko is computer generated, created and animated by a clandestine group of music, film, TV, and advertising producers. William Gibson, the man credited with coining the term "Cyber Space" as well as envisaging both the World Wide Web and virtual reality, has written a new book that deals with the question of Artificial Intelligence. His vision is that true AI will come about from the entertainment sector, a result of fabricating insanely complex and hyper-realistic pop stars, very much like Kyoko, who become so sophisticated that they take on a life of their own.
AI may come from robocop American nightmares but, most likely, AI will come from Japan's playful electronic hobbies like Tamagotchi, Asian Girlfriend and Kyoko because the Japanese are not afraid of technology. From Fritz Lang's Metropolis to 2001, to the Terminator and T2, cyberbrains will be crushing weak American flesh for the next two hundred years while Japan makes robo-grannies that can make their own herbal tea. The future may destroy or it may simply entertain us. It all depends on our choice of toys.
