Eden of the East 06















Episode 06 (8.5/10 Wonderful)
Impression:
I feel stupid, but I don’t understand the whole NEET/Eden thing. Maybe I zoned out and missed something important… Though, I’m terrible with political subjects. Plus, it’s completely a part of Japanese culture (not that we don’t have NEETs here) and I’m not as well versed in Japan’s culture yet. Despite this, I’m still interested in what’s going on. And, I’m praying they save Ohsugi before something terrible happens to him.
Suggestive Content:
There’s some talk about Ohsugi’s virginity, lust, and some more “Johnny” talk. And, a scene in the beginning in which the dominatrix is treatening Ohsugi.

Eden of the East 05














Episode 05 (8.5/10 Wonderful)
Impression:
All along the way I’ve thought Saki was a weak character and a transparent heroine. I’m glad to see some development on her personality and psyche. However, I still don’t see the role she has to play in this story. It seems like she’s just along for the ride. I want her to be more active and more tangled up in the story.
Suggestive Content:
The new “savior of Japan” is a dominatrix; the episode opens up to her inspecting her last client who has died from being mutilated. There seems to be a “Johnny” theme. This is definitely going to be a 17+ show.
