  The new and improved Rance hentai.

  A whole 21 years later and Rance fans get another adaptation of their favorite open world fantasy wank material. Just in time for the people who were born in the same year that the original was released in to start drinking.

  Rance 01: The Quest for Hikari (Rance 01: Hikari wo Motomete The Animation) begins begins with Rance and Sill arriving in the majestic Kingdom of Leazas to find a missing noble girl. As they split up to investigate several leads, Rance finds himself aiding the townsfolk with various problems from rescuing a kidnapped barmaid to purging an undead outbreak. While amassing both fortune and females, the warrior eventually uncovers a dark secret within the kingdom that only he can stand against.

  And continuing the tone that the first one had, the series begins with a scene where Rance rapes a woman multiple times before saving her, all while claiming that she was raped by a group of bandits, all because she was blindfolded. So if you're not into black comedy and slapstick, turn back now.

  Just like the first, The Quest for Hikari makes a ton of jokes about how it's based on a series of RPG games, referencing the overhead perspective that so many 8-bit and 16-bit JRPGs had at the time for the anime's transitions as Rance makes his way around town asking people about the girl that he's looking for. Since the animation in most hentai aren't that appealing, it's neat not only getting decent animation, but some neat visual variety to go with the good animation.

  The biggest difference between this and the last OVA is that the new series has 4 episodes and a special, which range from 26 to 30 minutes each, so there is quite a bit of content here. And because of the added content, every episode has at least 1 to 2 sex scenes each, and they're all good. So if you're looking for a hentai with some plot, The Quest for Hikari is right up there in terms of enjoyable plot.

  The series even comes with some monster rape towards the end of the series, so if you're into that, it's got you covered.

  The series is actually pretty well animated for a hentai, which is a rarity these days, considering that Queen Bee seems to intend to make hentai so poorly that a slideshow of the original source material would be an upgrade, so the good animation is very much appreciated here. You're bound to find something appealing in at least one or two of the sex scenes.

  And coincidentally, or possibly intentionally as an homage to the original OVA, the first episode of this adaptation of Rance came out on December 26th, so it's another White Christmas! There are only so many times I get to make a White Christmas pun in my hentai reviews, so I'm going to revel in it.
