Synopsis:
Jun runs away from home when her mother decides to marry her off to the highest bidder on her 18th birthday. She hates all the potential husbands lined up, and she doesn't want to get married so soon. Thus, Jun's mother puts up a 100 million yen reward to whoever can bring her back home... and the chase is on!

Review:
Iron Virgin Jun is yet another eccentric feature from the notorious Go Nagai ("Devilman", "Kama Sutra")... which practically guarantees a weird time for everyone concerned.

Jun Asuka is a young woman who belongs to the prestigious Asuka (obviously!) family. She is the sole heiress to everything the family has, and tradition dictates that she be married at the tender age of 18. Thus, Jun's mother throws a lavish party for Jun's 18th birthday, with only the wealthiest people as guests. This is so that she can pick a suitable husband for Jun. Jun runs away, with her mother's henchmen hot on her trail. The problem is, Jun's mother is offering 100 million yen to whoever can bring her back. To top it off, her mother believes that her virginity is the reason why she doesn't want to marry -- so part of her mother's orders include having Jun raped. If that's not bizarre, I don't know what is.

The art and animation are somewhat below par. Character designs are either peculiar or overly plain. Jun's mother looks like a macho man in drag; Jun has the face of an ordinary girl, but she's built like a muscleman; Jun's mother's henchmen are the usual sleazy bunch, except that their penises are uh, not normal to say the least. Jun's faithful servant Kuratta, Jun's father, and Jun's aunt are probably the most normal-looking characters in this title. Despite the hentai classification however, there is no nudity (not even bare boobs!). The most you'll see are the henchmen's animal-themed penises, some torn clothes, and attempted rape scenes that don't really go anywhere. If this were a Hollywood movie it would probably get an R rating. Surprisingly, seiyuu Chisa Yokoyama (Sakura in "Sakura Wars", Sasami in "Tenchi Muyo") plays the role of the main character Jun.

While Iron Virgin Jun has a pretty okay plot, it's hard to get over the extremely dated-looking and dully rendered visuals. Unless you're a die-hard Go Nagai fan, I suggest you save just save up for something more worthwhile.

Miscellanies:
I was really surprised to find Chisa Yokoyama in a hentai-ish role.
