It's not often (well, not often enough) that you see a romantic
sex scene in a hentai anime show. Especially not one between a woman and a tentacled
sex demon. Somehow the sight of a woman caressing a tentacle, while another tentacle
caresses the woman's cheek, complete with romantic music, makes for a highly amusing
viewing experience. Lesson of Darkness had been a reasonably
decent show until then. Sex demons have coexisted with human for ages, surviving
by stealing human energy by means of sex (ie tentacle rape). However, there's
one especially mean demon killing women while in search of a magical stone which
will grant him limitless power. But another demon tries to save both the human
and demon world by preventing this from happening. Unfortunately while the ideas
are good enough, at only 45 minutes, Lesson of Darkness is just
way too short for decent character development or action buildup. Said romantic
sex scene does make it a memorable one. But just when you think the show ends
on a positive note, a surprise sequence appears after the end credits, totally
mangling what should have been a fine ending.
