For this review, you can call me Handjob Solo because you’re in for one hell of a ride with this erotic gem. Soukou Kijo Iris, or Armoured Warrior Iris, is one of the first hentai I ever watched, and it has held a special place in my heart ever since. It was the first hentai I ever bothered remembering the name of when I was younger, and it remains a core memory all these years later. It recently popped back into my brain so I thought I should give it a proper rewatch, and it did not disappoint. #[__𝙎𝙪𝙢𝙢𝙖𝙧𝙮 (𝙎𝙥𝙤𝙞𝙡𝙚𝙧 𝙁𝙧𝙚𝙚):__](https://imgur.com/a/nqY9oZh) Soukou Kijo Iris is based on the erotic visual novel of the same name, developed by Black Lilith Studio. Our story follows the all-woman Special Armored Company #101 under the Free Planets Alliance and their operation on the planet Left. The hentai’s protagonists are Iris Rebel, the human commanding officer of these armoured knights and her lifelong friend, the elven lieutenant, Mei Li Naceri. The duo finds themselves in a trap set by enemy forces and have their mechs shot down. The resulting plot is a four-episode arc that follows the fates of our fallen heroines after their defeat in battle. ~~~ #[__𝙋𝙡𝙤𝙩 (𝙎𝙥𝙤𝙞𝙡𝙚𝙧𝙨 𝘼𝙝𝙚𝙖𝙙 !):__](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAHLwAxS7FI) After the battle, we follow Iris Rebel and her eventual capture by hostile forces. She is brought to a brothel in Million City (Nicknamed Dark Town), where she is sold to a crime lord named Bozuk after being forced to degrade herself publicly and pleasure a group of alien patrons. Once she is escorted to Bozuk’s palace, she is once again forced to perform involuntary and demeaning sex acts for the pleasure of her captor. It is after these events that she encounters an elf servant of Bozuk named Riruru, who bears a striking resemblance to her friend Mei Li. Over the next three episodes, Iris is abused and assaulted by Riruru and a menagerie of human and non-human characters. These encounters occur in groups or more intimate one-on-one settings, with Riruru occasionally participating in the debauchery. Iris attempts to convince Riruru that she is, in fact, her friend Mei Li, but it initially proves ineffective. However, Riruru develops feelings for Iris and grows to resent her being forced to pleasure others. As a result, she hands her an armoured knight survival kit, temporarily suppresses the palace’s security system and distracts Lord Bozuk. This allows Iris to signal the rest of her team, disarm Bozuk and save Riruru/Mei Li. The plot was very compelling and engaging compared to most hentai I’ve seen so far. The pacing was relatively clean, with character-defining moments and interactions between the creative and somewhat bizarre sex scenes.#[__𝘼𝙣𝙞𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 :__](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4VbA1d-mrQ) I found the animation to be a pleasant surprise upon my rewatch. As a fan of newer hentai, with smooth designs, fluid movements and dynamic lighting, I thought I would struggle to get through Soukou Kijo Iris, but I was wrong. The largely CGI opening of our characters landing on the planet and the ensuing battle was well done and didn’t feel out of place in your typical mech/sci-fi anime. The rest of the animation was quite good, as well. Iris’s hair movements were especially well done, and although the overall animation was slightly choppy, it wasn’t a big enough issue to out of the experience. To summarize, I felt the animation was a little dated compared to more recent shows. Still, it wasn’t nearly as bad as I expected, and certain movements were surprisingly well-animated. #[__𝘼𝙧𝙩 𝙎𝙩𝙮𝙡𝙚 :__](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ca-e5MrVbVU) Soukou Kijo Iris is brought to us gooners by Pixy Soft, a studio I had never heard of before this review. I really enjoyed the style of this hentai; the subdued colours and shadows were nice to look at without being an eyesore. Some of the newer hentai I watched could take notes from Soukou Kijo Iris, as too many shows go wild on bright, poppy colours that are just over the top for me. Overall, the style was easy to get behind and drew me into the setting and situations our protagonists were in. #[__𝙈𝙖𝙞𝙣 𝘾𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙖𝙘𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝘿𝙚𝙨𝙞𝙜𝙣/𝙋𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙤𝙣𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙮 (𝙄𝙧𝙞𝙨 𝙍𝙚𝙗𝙚𝙡 - 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙎𝙩𝙚𝙚𝙡 𝙑𝙖𝙡𝙠𝙮𝙧𝙞𝙚):__](https://imgur.com/a/KhgRPkx) Oh, Iris, Iris, Iris. How can I describe the impact this 5ft 8 bombshell had on my psyche growing up? Her body is out of this world, with a slender yet defined frame, a stunning pair of tits and an ass I’d gladly bombard from orbit. A killer bod is not all this maiden of war has going for her, however. My eyes were constantly drawn to her face, her dark purple eyes, her distinct hair design and her sharp facial features. Coming from a guy who generally prefers his waifus with a little more meat on them and softer features, I consider that a massive achievement. It’s just a shame that her eyes are shut half the time during the sex scenes, hiding some of her best features and expressions. Since she’s being raped throughout the whole hentai, her expressions are mainly those of pain and resistance, which isn’t inherently a bad thing in context. However, I would have loved more scenes where that look of resistance slowly fades away into one of uncontrollable lust. I thankfully did get one such scene in the final episode, which was by far one of my favourite parts of the whole show. Iris’s design is absolutely gorgeous, and nearly every complaint I have with Soukou Kijo Iris revolves around that design not being utilized enough. My fascination with Iris’s design shows what Pixy Soft is truly capable of, and their excellent character designs might even motivate me to watch more of their shows someday. Besides being the most radiant star in the hentai, she has a relatively strong personality. For a four-episode hentai, I got a surprising amount of character from Iris. She’s a calm and capable commander who feels her military operations are just and righteous. This attitude and sense of moral duty seem to be a guiding principle for Iris, as it manifests in her every action. She is doggedly determined and manages to endure near-constant rape and public humiliation without ever wavering. Despite the horrors Riruru/Mei Li put her through, Iris still felt she needed saving despite Riruru/Mei Li’s protestations. These actions showcase just how compassionate and strong-willed she really is. This compassion may have even extended to her captor, Bozuk, as well. Although she stabbed his wrist to disarm him, he cries and begs for mercy, while Iris seemingly agrees to his request, with the hentai never showing her harming him further. I honestly didn’t think I’d go away with such a solid and favourable impression of her, but I was very pleasantly surprised. Iris Rebel is not only gorgeous, she’s an incredibly strong and perseverant woman who turned a nightmare scenario into another successful mission. However, to say she deserves all the credit there wouldn’t be right. #[__𝙈𝙖𝙞𝙣 𝘾𝙝𝙖𝙧𝙖𝙘𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝘿𝙚𝙨𝙞𝙜𝙣/𝙋𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙤𝙣𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙮 (𝙈𝙚𝙞 𝙇𝙞 𝙉𝙖𝙘𝙚𝙧𝙞 - 𝑨 𝙇𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙂𝙚𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙞 ):__](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lD_ag67tH3I) I never really saw the appeal of Mei Li when I was younger, and although Iris still holds a special place in my heart, this elf is far more than I initially expected. Her design is on point, with a petite, nymphlike body with a healthy amount of meat. Although her body is very appealing, it’s not really my taste, but I know many other people will certainly enjoy looking at it. I absolutely love the design of her face, with her large, deep blue eyes, cute elf ears, and adorable face. These features are perfectly accentuated by her silvery blue hair, with bangs and a twin-tailed design that brings out her captivating eyes and gleeful smile. Her amnesia and Riruru persona were also really fun to watch, especially during the sex scenes. In a show with back-to-back rape scenes, it was good to watch someone actually enjoying herself. Riruru’s participation in several scenes was a welcome addition to the otherwise degrading sex Iris had to endure rather than experience. Mei Li/Riruru was a ray of sunshine in a dark pit of despair and degradation, and rewatching her antics gave me a new-found appreciation for her character. Although her personality isn’t as defined as Iris’s, Mei Li is still a woman of conviction and conscience. While under amnesia, part of her psyche seems to understand she isn’t Riruru, with a bit of prompting from Iris being all that’s needed to make her question her assumed identity. Mei Li/Riruru’s jealousy and quick thinking were also instrumental in her and Iris’s eventual rescue. She also convinced Bozuk to let his guard down, a testament to her ingenuity and carnal skills. Although not as evident or inspiring, Mei Li’s personality was present throughout Soukou Kijo Iris. She acted when it mattered most and helped bring Bozuk’s cruelty to a swift end, an excellent conclusion for a great character. #[__𝘼 𝙂𝙖𝙡𝙖𝙭𝙮 𝙉𝙤𝙩 𝙎𝙤 𝙁𝙖𝙧 𝘼𝙬𝙖𝙮 ?__](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7A6aV-eTNk) As a massive Star Wars fan, it would be a crime not to point out the inspiration Soukou Kijo Iris has taken from George Lucas. I honestly found it very appropriate and funny upon rewatching, so I shall illustrate several examples I spotted that may have come from George Lucas’s magnum opus. I really enjoyed these references, and many of these potential similarities were based on my observations, so I’m probably wrong about half of them. Still, I had fun, and hope it gives you something to think about. ##__𝘼𝙡𝙞𝙚𝙣 𝘿𝙚𝙨𝙞𝙜𝙣𝙨 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝘼𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙩𝙞𝙘𝙨 :__ Iris’s alien captors bear a striking resemblance to Jawas. Iris recovers from her injuries in a device reminiscent of a bacta tank. Several crowd members at Million’s slave auction share appearances with various alien species in the Star Wars universe. Crime Lord Bozuk closely resembles a Hutt. ##__𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙢𝙚𝙨 :__ The Special Armored Company #101, under the Free Planet Alliance, fighting against an evil empire brings to mind the conflict between the Rebel Alliance and the Galactic Empire of the Original Trilogy. Societies in both Soukou Kijo Iris and Star Wars use Credits as a currency. Bozuk’s position as a crime lord with a palace and human slaves is reminiscent of Jabba and his Palace on Tatooine. Iris’s personality and situation (a strong-willed ‘rebel’ commander at the mercy of a cruel and lustful alien) remind me of Princess Leia’s predicament at the beginning of Return of the Jedi. #[__𝘾𝙤𝙣𝙘𝙡𝙪𝙨𝙞𝙤𝙣 :__](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4wZv4iTcdg) All in all, I loved this hentai back then, and I love it even more now. The plot, the characters, the aesthetics, and the references. It was all great and created an experience that was as engaging as it was titillating. I had a few issues with the way Iris was utilized, and the animation wasn’t as smooth as I’d liked, but that is a small price to pay for this glorious gift given to us by Pixy Soft. I highly recommend Soukou Kijo Iris to those with strong wills, who like compelling plots and characters. Or people who can turn their brains off and just want to jack it to two really hot chicks getting railed in an intergalactic gangbang. #[__ℂ𝕒𝕟𝕕𝕪 ℝ𝕒𝕥𝕚𝕟𝕘:__](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EhIZ7LNJdtg) I equate Soukou Kijo Iris to a Maltesers Teasers. A product with a relatively unassuming and overlooked exterior. However, with its recognizable flavour, and light yet surprisingly good crunch, it will leave a fond impression you will remember for many years to come.
