Inject this B-movie pulp schlock directly into my veins.

Pretty sure this is going to be an intellectually stimulating series.

The CG insects look atrocious, but I kinda don't mind it considering the manga is total B-movie so I see it as a throwback to old horror movies with terrible costumes for the monsters. No way in hell they're gonna keep all the content from the anime for a TV series tho. Even an OVA is doubtful.

Wow, it's like a sci-fi channel original movie crossed with a lazy hentai.

... hmm, oh well, as long as it's so bad it's good, I'm down for this.

Yeah, I watched the trailer mostly because that thumbnail had me less sure about what type of series this was.

Of course, looking at some of the credits for staff members, things are making a bit more sense.

So what do we have soft core with giant CG insects?

I guess I'll be passing on this one. I don't like stuff like this. LOL!!

But jeez, c'mon enough with the shoddy CG!!! LOL!!

Nice to see the people behind Blue Submarine No. 6 are still finding work.

Those bugs have bad CG, like it's inferior to Earth Defense Force 5 or Iron Rain. Also, this is going to get censored to oblivion once the TV version airs.

I think it looks like an entertaining B-movie experience and it somewhat reminds me of Calamity of a Zombie Girl. It is a shame that these type of OVA projects are so rare since they can go further than the shows that have to meet the guidelines for broadcast TV.

I initially read the title as The Island of Giant Incest, Honestly I don't think I was that far off.
