This ain’t no Sailor Moon. Fans
of anime/manga conjure up
different images than Superman
and Batman when they hear the
word “superhero.”
Barrett Blade, who has travelled
to Japan several times to act in
anime/manga-themed adult
productions, has taken everything
he has learned and brought it to
America for his latest movie.
Show No Mercy, which kicks off
Wicked Pictures’ new Wicked
Cosplay line, is the tale of five
Cirian muses who work as one to
protect the Cirian Sphere and defend the universe from the likes of
the evil Lord Zuru (Blade), who wants to control the Sphere and the
universe.
Each of the sex scenes has a similar motif: The heroines are
captured by villains and each manages to free herself and keep the
Cirian Sphere’s location a secret.
At the start, Zuru sends his masked henchmen (Barry Scott and
Will Powers) to torture Serafina (Alexis Monroe). The plan backfires,
however, as she actually enjoys the e-stim device they use on her. It’s
not long before she convinces them that if they present their cocks to
her she might be persuaded to tell them where the Cirian Sphere is.
(Of course, after she gobbles down their manrods and has each of
them fuck her, she fights them off and escapes.)
Angeni (Molly Bennett) takes on a masked Eric Masterson,
taunting him to fight her but ending up tied to machinery in a ware-
house and ravaged by a vibrator. When that tactic doesn’t work, he
unleashes his penis into her mouth and pussy, but she still doesn’t
give up her secrets.
Andromeda (Mischa Brooks) is attacked by Michael Vegas, who
locks her in a stockade and finger-fucks her before freeing her and
trying to fuck the information out of her mouth and ass.
Next up Miss Eva Lovia is approached by evildoer Alektra Blue,
who has her way with the do-gooder until the tables are turned and
Miss Eva leaves Alektra satisfied and spent.
Finally, Queen Valeska (Annika Albrite) tries to overpower Marcus
London in his laboratory, but instead ends up chained to a chair and
at the mercy of his hands, penis and a Hitachi Magic Wand. But like
her muse sisters, she keeps her secrets to herself.
Barrett
’s knowledge of this genre, which is a favorite in Japan and
sure to find an audience in the U.S., is evident in everything from
the costumes to the choreographed fights scenes to the backdrop
story that ties the scenes together. It leans toward the campy side,
but not in a bad way. It’s not so over-the-top that viewers will be
turned off.
And while the plethora of superhero parodies in recent years has
done well to attract the geek crowd to adult movies, the fans of
anime and manga have not yet been addressed. Hopefully this will
not be Blade’s final foray into this type of feature, because for a first
effort, it’s a big hit.

AAAA
Hall of Famer Jim Powers directs his first edition of
the underwear-loving series, and it’s a great effort.
Alex Gonz watches Lia Lor show off her thong across
the yard of a rental mansion before walking up to her
and telling her that her whale tail is sexy. Gonz fucks
her in standing doggie before she’s even out of her
jeans. — Heather Namikoshi

Category: All-Girl
AAAA
This series can do no wrong, as it continues to deliver
sultry, erotic and leisurely scenes with lesbians and
potential lesbians who are shown the way to Pussyland.
Lily LaBeau is one such novice, and some gentle prodding
and suggestive fun leads to a lengthy time in the sack
with Samantha Saint. — Dirty Bob
