Adult Source Media's Obtain Future titles (NSFW)

[DocWatson]

Last week I actually watched some of my hentai backlog, instead of just discussing it. Since one of the discs was Adult Source Media's reissue of Chu2, I also watched the bonus, which turned out to be Sex Tutor: Cute Boy Hunter. However, that series has not been officially released by ASM, which piqued my interest—especially since I already knew something about the Obtain/Obtain Future titles...

Warning: Gratuitous and excessive geekiness follows.

Early its existence Adult Source Media picked a number of Green Bunny titles (http://fast.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/company.php?id=799), and (it seems) virtually the entire catalog of a company called "Obtain Future" (AKA "Obtain"), which they include as "bonus titles" on their releases. Obtain Future's Web sites (which are not very helpful) via the Internet Archive (manually changing to Shift_JIS may be necessary):

www.obtain.tv (http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.obtain.tv)
www.obtain.jp (http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.obtain.jp)
www.obtainfuture.jp (http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.obtainfuture.jp/)
www.obtainfuture.jp/english/ (http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.obtainfuture.jp/english/index.html)

No mention of cartoon porn there...though they have a fair sized catalog of live-action porn (http://www.dmm.co.jp/rental/-/list/=/article=maker/id=40017/).

Obtain Future's catalog consists of sixteen one-shot OAVs, which apparently look as if they were each created by a talented (and dirty-minded) grade-school student using Microsoft Paint over the course of a weekend. They have the catalog numbers of OADV-001 to OADV-013 and OAS-001 to OAS-003, and the original covers and descriptions may be found at these Japanese e-tailer sites, among others:

If anyone would be so kind as to post the information, I'd like to add the rest of ASM's titles to this list.

[touma]

Maids In Dream has a bonus title called "Mini Skirt Baby."
I do not see that on your list, but I would not be surprised if they called it something else also.
The bonus title on several of my ASM disks is something about a gymnast and her male teacher. Of course he teaches her more than gymnastics. I do not know what the title is because it is never translated.

This is off of the topic, but I just felt like mentioning it. I just noticed that many of my ASM releases have reversible covers. I did not notice it before because they put them in opaque black cases. Fools.

[Rhodes]

Okusama wa Joshikousei

...shouldnt that be translated as "My Wife is a High School Student"?


I know of a manga (18+) with that name which I would love to be translated and released... also an anime adaptation of it (not adult).

Is it the same show/story?

Or a different show with the same title?

I see he's added a remark that there are indeed two shows by that title and this refers to a different series than the one you're thinking of.

The more mainstream series called "My Wife Is A High School Girl" is not hentai, but is still pretty risque, say maybe in the neighborhood of Futari H in explicitness. It's a 13-volume manga series created by Hiyoko (Dispatch!!, Peridot) and was also turned into a short-run TV series. Sadly neither the manga nor the anime have been made available in R1, though I would buy either if they were.

Back on topic, nice breakdown DocWatson. I had been wondering where those one-shot "extra" episodes were coming from on the ASM titles. Though I think claiming they look as if they were drawn by horny middle schoolers is giving the animators too much credit. The shorts I've seen have been just awful... :sd:

Which volume(s) of Maids In Dream? (I list "Mini Skirt Baby" under the official title of Girl's Locker Room Lust.)

That's one of the stealth release titles, Prima Donna Mai. I have yet to really watch it, but the sport involved seems to be rhythmic gymnastics, as in Princess 69 and parts of DNA^2.

This is off of the topic, but I just felt like mentioning it. I just noticed that many of my ASM releases have reversible covers. I did not notice it before because they put them in opaque black cases. Fools.
That was also the case with JapanAnime's earlier releases, though JA has not done that of late.

Hiyoko Kobayashi (http://fast.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/people.php?id=23123), actually. I, too, wish her manga were (commercially) available in English. Her color art (http://www.animaxis.com/en/shop/index.asp?dept%5Fid=30) is also really nice.

Thank you.

Despite its many problems, I found Girl's Locker Room Lust to be superior in enjoyment to the disc it was on, Momiji volume 1, which reminded me of one of the AoD quotations:

"One shouldnt make oneself watch stuff you know you wont like. That is true. That leads to resentment. Resentment leads to fear. Fear leads to the Dark Side. The Dark Side leads to watching more MLB than Anime."
~ Kellory

At least the characters in Girl's Locker Room Lust (mostly) liked and consented to what they were doing—even though the art and animation were worse, and the plot less coherent. :-P Still, hardcore yuri excuses many flaws... :sdsmiley:

Fortunately I also watched Paprika in the theater that week, and followed it with Puppet Princess (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=62) (good doses of action and comedy, a bit of fan service, and, of course, ninjas!), and those (especially the last) cured my blues.

Sorry, I did not even notice that it had a volume number. It is volume 1 "Personal Issues."

And Kitty Media uses clear cases when they don't use the other side of the cover for reversible covers, additional art or show notes (a la Anime18)...:rolleyes:

Hentai packagfing is weird like that :P

More weirdness: I've watched a couple of ASM's Secret Anima (http://fast.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=5787) titles in the last week, and discovered that another S.A. show's cover is printed on the reverse. E.g., Momone has The Pianist as the "hidden" side. This is probably a cost-saving measure, but it's still odd.

I updated the first post, correcting a few mistakes and making all of the links current.
