Urushihara's same actually

Urushihara's same actually means varnish/gloss, which suggests it's a pen name.

And yeah the plot's stupid, that's not why you watch this. The art's godly awesome.

Also about the whole "why not just rent porn?" comment. Some people "like me) rather see softcore titties than hardcore pr0nz.

I don't think so...

You can still get real soft core porn, even lesbian porn, without the strange zombie doll expressions that Satoshi Urushihara draws on his women. The guy can draw a body like no one else, but holy crap do I hate his facial expressions. What is that expression his girls always make? Are they about to cry? Do they have a gland problem? They have two expression: Mouth open and mouth shut. And when it's open, it's always the "O" face.

I don't even like how he does hair. It's like all of his girls have a cow catcher on their forehead.

I say this as someone who adores lesbians. I see Satoshi Urushihara drawings, and I feel DIRTY.

I found this at the comic

I found this at the comic shop for five bucks a long time ago. I would've been better off buying lunch instead, then looking up some Urushihara doujinshi at home.

Video Games

Honestly, I think where Urishihara really shines is in design work for video games. I really like the Langrisser (Warsong on the Genesis in the US) games and the related Growlanser games. Good art, pretty fun to play. Not incredibly stupid like Plastic Little.

Like Shirow...

Like Masamune Shirow, who is really awesome at writing an RPG sourcebook (or, as you say, doing the design work for a video game) but just shouldn't be in charge of writing a story.

Great anime for a 13-year-old

This, like Michael Bay's "Transformers" movie, is one of those things that a 13-year-old boy would think was just the best thing anyone could ever do.

Unfortunately we're all in our twenties and thirties, and we've seen too many things that are actually good to look at something like this and say "yeah, that's good stuff".
