| Notes: |
The number of DVDs above may actually be on the low side, as some of those movies I counted as one DVD were in fact entire 3-4 DVD series (if my growing hentai knowledge serves me correctly) placed in a single file.
This also means that in some cases you can multiply the approx. 30 minutes per DVD by three or four.
This wasn't consistent though, as many others were split up in episodes |
Pros
+ A very large collection of downloadable hentai movies, everything from Angel Blade, Bible Black and Discipline to Marine A GoGo, Taboo Charming Mother and many others.
The collection is even more impressive when you factor in the two additional specialized hentai movie sites (lesbian and bondage) also included in the price (although some movies do appear on at least two sites, probably because they cover several themes)
HentaiKey is a pretty mean competitor to be up against, but if hentai DVD downloads is the only thing you're after, I think this three site package is more or less a match for HentaiKey in terms of pure volume, and I additionally ran into movies from at least a few popular series in there that HentaiKey aren't currently offering, like Cool Devices, Words Worth and Oni-Tensai
I also noticed that some of the series that were (as far as I know) originally released on multiple DVDs, were available here in a single file (a pretty large one). This meant that several series where I initially thought they only had the first episode, actually turned out to be complete
+ The update schedule appears consistent at two new DVDs a week, for each of the three sites (if you don't already know it it's worth noting though, that in the hentai world a DVD typically means 25-40 minutes of videos, not a full 90-120 minutes)
+ Two other sites included in the price, although given their extreme similarities (hell, I've barely even bothered to change more than a few lines of text between these three reviews, this sentence included) you could easily argue that Lestai and Bondanime could just have been added as niche categories on Titanime
+ Pretty good video quality. The resolution is a bit on the low side, but the bitrate more or less makes up for that
+ The videos are definately the main attraction, but there is a page with downloadable hentai comic books/doujins as well (although if you're after those I would definately recommend the HentaiKey network instead, where you have a whole lot more to choose from in this area, and then some)
+ A few downloadable hentai games as well, but as usual with those things it requires fiddling around with CD/DVD emulators and what have you not, in order to run them. I honestly didn't bother (the last time I tried that a few years ago I almost had my Windows 2000 installation messed up thanks to conflicts with my regular CD drivers)
+ Clean and simple site interface, and with the DVD cover and a description shown for all movies. Check the cons below though
Cons
- No search or sorting features for locating particular movies, they haven't even bothered sorting the the long two page list alphabetically.
On the other hand, unless you're a hentai expert the preferred method for locating movies you want to download is probably just leisurely browsing the archives rather than heading for specific titles. It could have been done better though
- While I did complain ever so slightly about video resolution above, the files are still so large (typically 200-300+ Mb) that you shouldn't bother with these sites unless you're on a decent broadband connection. An option for segmented downloads may have helped, but as these movies are full DVD episodes you would need to download all of them anyway, otherwise it would be a bit of a waste.
A lower quality option might have come in handy, but the files would probably still be too large to cater to dialup users. Let's face it, video sites require broadband
