Synopsis:
Fawn Bell (who could very well pass for Sailormoon's long-lost sister) is a ninja girl who just wants to go and live in the city like any other normal person. She and her boyfriend / fellow ninja Moon Shadow attempt to escape from Ninja Country, but they are caught by their leader Madam Devil Grace. Madam Devil Grace punishes the two by forcing them to have sex in front of the whole ninja clan... awakening their insatiable libidos and exhibitionist tendencies in the process! Soon Fawn Bell and Moon Shadow are doing it everywhere all the time, much to Madam Devil Grace's frustration. But another ninja girl named Morning Mist is determined to get in between Fawn Bell and Moon Shadow...

Review:
Since Karakuri Ninja Girl is primarily about ninjas and sex, I was expecting something along the lines of the grossly overrated "La Blue Girl". What I got was a funny hentai anime that features more creative sexual uses for ninja techniques, all the while making fun of Sailormoon. Is that good? Hell, yes!

Karakuri Ninja Girl has a very simple and straightforward plot. We have two lovebirds who want to get away from it all and be happy together, then we have a few obstacles standing in their way. I can't really describe it any more without telling the whole story. What I can tell you is that I really enjoyed watching Karakuri Ninja Girl. The characters are hilarious, and the sexcapades amusing to say the least. You even get an outright Sailormoon impersonation from Moon Shadow himself (see second screenshot below).

The art and animation are nicely done, although the character designs for Fawn Bell and Morning Mist are too cutesy for my taste. Sex is depicted explicitly, yet in most (not all) scenes the lower genitalia are rendered invisibly. If the male member is shown in a scene, it's portrayed unrealistically -- like a big glowing fuschia rod or something like that. There are no demon or tentacle rapes, it's all human-to-human action which also includes girl-to-girl sex scenes. It's nowhere as hardcore as "La Blue Girl", which could either be a positive or negative point... depending on one's persepective. The English dubbing is okay for a hentai anime, I guess. The voices suited the characters, but the acting is rather stilted and inexpressive.

Karakuri Ninja Girl is short, sweet, and generally just fun. It's only two episodes long but I found that this length keeps things from being overdone. I'd recommend this in place of "La Blue Girl" any day...

Miscellanies:
Karakuri Ninja Girl is made up of two half-hour episodes.
