Controversial and short animes tend to appear every year, but I doubt you know about the existence of this obscure anime, which involves fights with butts and a war between religions and sects. Today we will talk about a short anime (OVA) that has only 2 episodes. Perhaps, the true inspiration for the anime Keijo!!!!!!!!

In the 90s, VHS tapes were the easiest way to sell the famous OVAs (original animations). That’s when someone had the great idea to adapt the manga by Masakazu Yamaguchi called Dengeki Oshioki Musume Gootaman created by Animate Film and Studio Kikan (famous for short animes and OVAs) in 1994.

The anime has a duration of 45 minutes and was released in parts:

  • Dengeki Oshioki Musume Gootaman: Gootaman Tanjou-hen;
  • Dengeki Oshioki Musume Gootaman R: Ai to Kanashimi no Final Battle;

Dengeki Oshioki Musume Gootaman

Mari Amachi is a very devout Christian who transfers to Perfect Religion Academy. A school dedicated to all the religions of the world in an effort to make the students the next world leaders in religion. Her friend Saori is kidnapped by the Black Buddha cult; a group that seeks to take away religious freedom through force and brainwashing.

Mari prays to God for help, but it is Buddha who answers the call. Mari aspires only to help her friend and she is transformed into Dengeki Oshioki Musume Gootaman. To her shame and the delight of everyone else, her outfit involves a costume covered with a sumo belt that exposes her backside.

Basically, her attack and defense consist of movements with her backside. Yes, there are only moves that use the butt, and nothing else! Basically, the anime presents a sexually lurid way of attacking enemies in the name of religious freedom. A rather strange concept that gives a lot to discuss.

In the English version, the title of the anime is Butt Attack Punisher Girl Gautaman. Note that even the word butt appears in the title, and in Japanese, the word oshioki, besides reminding punishment, also reminds butt.

Is it worth watching Dengeki Oshioki?

There is no real depth to any of the characters, which is really to be expected from such a short anime. This does not mean they were not likable. Mari and Saori were charming and friendly as the main protagonists.

The supporting cast and the villains are so shallow and mainly rely on their various visual stereotypes to build their personalities. The anime was such an obscure failure that it is not even found with Portuguese subtitles. There isn’t even a wiki page about the anime. Perhaps it was due to being released on VHS.

The anime is so absurd and nonsensical that it gained the reputation of being “so bad it’s good.” You know those movies with very amateurish and forced acting that you watch just because they are comedic? That’s the case with Dengeki Oshioki Musume Gootaman. It’s only worth watching this anime if you’re in the mood for something so horrible that it becomes funny.

You can easily find this anime on YouTube in Japanese and sometimes with English subtitles. Do you know another anime with absurd and unknown themes? We appreciate comments and shares. We also recommend reading:
