Greetings Perverts, and welcome to the Smut Files, my series where I will watch and provide thoughts on some of the smuttiest Asian movies ever made.
In our first episode, lets check out the hilarious 2013 Japanese comedy film: HK Forbidden Super Hero. And what does HK stand for? Hentai Kamen, or Pervert Mask!
PLOT
Kyosuke is just your typical high school student, with a supremely chiselled body. One fateful day, a gorgeous new exchange student, Aiko, transfers to his school and he is in love. And who wouldn’t be, look at her! She’s stunning!
Anyway, while walking home he comes across a hostage situation. A few thieves robbing a business are holding customers and staff hostage, with one of those customers being Aiko.
Kyosuke is desperate to prove how heroic he is to her, so he works out how to get into the building where he can use his martial arts skills to take down the thieves before the police can do it.
He realises though, that he needs a way to hide his face. With the absence of any proper masks, he decides to pop a pair of panties over his face. But those panties unlock some kind of super power within Kyosuke, transforming him into Hentai Kamen.
Hentai Kamen becomes a local sensation! But an evil man who wants to take over his high school devises a plan to defeat Kyosuke by infiltrating the faculty with another version of the Hentai Kamen.
Now, the two Hentai Kamens must face off, where the one with the full power of the pervert will be the ultimate winner.
Insane. And something like this can really only be truly made in Japan.
HOW SMUTTY IS IT?
First off, I want to get this off my chest. This film feels like a perverted Japanese version of Scott Pilgrim VS The World.
With that out of the way, let’s check out the smut-o-meter!
The smut-o-meter is a time line that chronicles all instances of smut in the movie and how strong the level of smut is – allowing you to make the choice of whether you should watch this movie with your parents, your partner or all alone. With perhaps some lotion and box of tissues. No judgment.
This is a 105-minute-long movie, where there are quite a few moments that would be considered smutty. Considering the front cover though, some level of smut is to be expected.
Let’s check out the smut-o-meter for this film, and then lets checkout the highlights!
The first 45 minutes is rather light, with a few scenes including panties and the introduction of the mankini. It’s around the one hour mark where the bulk of the smut of this movie resides, including the introduction of the fake Hentai Kamen and a the usual comedic desk erection scene (57m). We then get a few more scant bits towards the final part of the movie, where by the time both of the Hentai Kamen’s are fighting each other, you’ve just accepted the fact there are two men wearing mankinis and panties in their heads and you’re desensitised to it.
Buy your own copy of Hentai Kamen or it’s sequel from Playasia and support my work!
But if you’re expecting to see the gorgeous Fumika Shimizu naked, well then you are shit out of luck. Because while this is a super smutty movie, there is no proper nudity in this film. You do get a few scenes of her wearing a bikini though, so maybe that’s a consolation of all the mankini stuff!
What are my overall thoughts?
So, as a dirty pervert who is desperate to watch some filth – should you watch this movie? Well as I mentioned, if you’re hoping to see some naked girls, then you’re going to be super disappointed. That’s not what this movie is about
This is purely a comedy film, where the panties are the main star, not what is underneath them. And while that might upset or frustrate a few of you, I am sure the movie we are going to talk about in the next episode will be right down your alley!
Watch this for the comedy and the craziness, it’s actually worth it for that alone.
