Hentai Kamen 2: The Abnormal Crisis
New York Asian Film Festival 2016
June 22 - July 9, 2016
In this sequel to the 2013 NYAFF Audience Award winner, handsome Kyosuke Shikijo (beefcake Ryohei Suzuki) tries to balance his love for his girlfriend Aiko, whose underwear he needs to become a superhero, and his double life as the masked vigilante Hentai Kamen, all the while confronting a worldwide evil conspiracy involving a mass panty disappearance.
Mac with the nutsack is back, proving that we will always have weird Japan, which beats Batman v Superman any day. Kyosuke Shikijo (a singularly beefy Ryohei Suzuki) tries to find a healthy balance between his new life as an ordinary college student and his secret pervy heroics as Hentai Kamen, whose superpowers–—a result of the combined genetic legacy of his masochistic detective father, who died in the line of duty, and his mother, a deranged, sadistic dominatrix—are triggered by wearing his cute girlfriend Aiko’s panties on his head. But after a lover’s quarrel, Aiko (Fumika Shimizu) demands the return of her underwear. Bad timing: there is a worldwide disappearance of panties. Unable to transform into Hentai Kamen, Kyosuke falls into the doldrums just as he is challenged by a dangerous new foe. Crotch-based martial arts, fishnets, pathos, humor, mankinis, and a literal panty storm are all on perverted display in this sequel to the 2013 NYAFF Audience Award winner.
