Comic Artist & His Assistants: Complete Collection
(2014/Sentai Filmworks Blu-ray)
Picture:

Aito
is a minor manga artist. He is a lazy, perverted and loves drawing
girls, boobs and panties ...and he uses his various assistants as
'reference/research' material for his manga. No matter what happens
....they MUST help Aito make his deadline, even if may involve them
stripping and drawing them in the nude or their bra and panties.
Aito is also a manga artist who can only work with beautiful girls,
and while he is surrounded by girls he constantly wants to do adult
(ecchi) things to them, all for the sake of his manga 'research'
(~yeah ...right) in The Comic Artist & His Assistants:
Complete Collection (2014).
His
main assistant is Ashisu who also wishes to become a main stream
manga artist. Rinna is Aito's 2nd assistant and the most well
endowed (also a fan/follower of his manga) and while she supports him
the most, she can't draw (but that's OK by Aito). Sena is Aito's
last assistant and is a super assistant gothic lolita jailbait.
Together, they are watched over by Mihari, Aito's editor (and also
his childhood friend). While the girls all hate Aito's 'ecchi' ways,
they continue to be his 'assistants' because can't just abandon him
when he comes crying/begging for help (with his manga ...well
mostly).
This series is not as much as a series as a bunch of
shorts, each 'episode' is less then 10 minutes long and is more or
less about the main protagonist trying to get into the girl's
panties. It makes fun of a ecchi/naughty manga and manga artists.
The
1080p digital High Definition image across all the episodes is good,
but not always great, while the lossless Japanese DTS-HD MA (Master
Audio) 2.0 Stereo with some Pro Logic-like surrounds is better than
usual to the point it helps the picture. Extras include trailers,
clean opening and closing animations, and Episode 12 closing karaoke
version.
