History Manga / InterspeciesReviewers

* EveryoneHasStandards: The gang may be trying to sleep with any known species, but [[BestialityIsDepraved outright bestiality is where they draw the line]]. When the gang visited a Beastmen-only brothel arcade with succu-girls of varying beast blood in them, as they approach the 100% beast blood, they came across a livestock farm. They disappeared before the keeper could finish his spiel.[[labelnote:*]]There's also that time when they had sex with seafood, but since they were inhabiting the same species for the act, that might not technically count as bestiality.[[/labelnote]]

* DeliberateValuesDissonance: The different values of the men of all races colors their reviews of the various ladies they bed; Zel cannot stand sleeping with older elf women despite their youthful looks because they are older than his own mother, but Stunk loves them because for a human, elf ladies always look young and pretty no matter their age. Conversely, Zel likes older human women because they're experienced, but still younger than him and their life force, or mana (which gets stale and "rancid" at the same rate regardless of species, making older members of long-lived species particularly unpleasant regardless of how gracefully or how little they externally age) feels good to him. Their dog man drinking buddy, on the other hand, thinks of the older human woman as being kinda cute in an orc-womanly fashion (and prefers women with a pleasing scent), and the halfling decides both are too old for his taste (and cannot stand being overwhelmed by a rather aggressive dagon).

** The anime ''does'' show sex scenes, which makes it [[UpToEleven magnitudes more ecchi than the original manga]], to the point that the sex scenes are occasionally just a conveniently placed scenery censor or conveniently arranged angle away from being full on hentai. The anime was actually dropped by several streaming services and Japanese networks after a few episodes, due to being TooHotForTV.

* NippleAndDimed: Averted. The first episode alone has a nipple show in the first two minutes of it and it only gets more graphic [[UpToEleven from there on]]. It should be noted that the most censored version of the series does black out the nipples, alongside most of the nudity. The other two versions do show them with no censors at all, and the most graphic doesn't even [[SerialEscalation bother to censor the crotch shots]]. The manga also does not censor nipples.

* BrokenBase: InUniverse, the bar patrons are pretty evenly split on their opinions of the Light Spirits.

* SoOkayItsAverage:
** InUniverse, this sums up the gang's review of the cyclops brothel. With the exception of Kanchal, who got landed with a girl he didn't like due to a misunderstanding about the meaning of "cup size", the Reviewers uniformly gave their cyclops succu-girls 7s across the board, because while the girls were hot and great at their jobs, their cyclops traits didn't add anything uniquely kinky to the experience like sleeping with a minotaur or a fairy would. Stunk in particular thought his cyclops girl was absolutely ''gorgeous'', but had to concede that none of that had to do with her being a ''cyclops''. All Zel could mention was a bit about their okay mana levels and how [[ACupAngst the small-eyed ones]] [[ShrinkingViolet are very submissive]], and while Crim did find a lot of nice things to say about being with a girl with such a big, pretty eye, he also found her bizarre, eye-based kinks to be rather off-putting. The group's general consensus is that cyclops traits don't really matter that much when it comes to sex. [[spoiler:Which was exactly what the insecure, small-eyed cyclops who secretly hired them was hoping to hear.]]

* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: With a few characters for each species and many species in this world, ''Interspecies Reviewers'' has plenty of cast members. In particular, due to the fact the premise involves visiting a new brothel full of new succu-girls almost every chapter/episode, the number of succu-girls alone is massive, being more than twice the size of the number of non-succu-girl characters.

* AdultFear:
** The two cyclopes that Stunk and Zel reviewed have the unfortunate luck of being considered "unattractive" by their own kind for having small eyes, despite being in possession of a number of other bodily features that rate as ''very'' attractive to non-cyclopes. These poor girls are basically stuck in a dead end job that constantly twists the knife stuck in their self-esteem due to body image issues, a problem many women can easily empathize with.
** Chapter 16/episode 8 shows that The Boss's Hideout villain roleplay (BDSM) establishment has a lot of failed actresses on the staff, reflecting a real-world tendency for failed celebrities to end up as AV actresses; a brunette human lady even admits she wasn't able to find a gig before she wound up working there.

* DeliberateValuesDissonance: The different values of the men of all races colors their reviews of the various ladies they bed; Zel cannot stand sleeping with older elf women despite their youthful looks because they are older than his own mother, but Stunk loves them because for a human, elf ladies always look young and pretty no matter their age. Conversely, Zel likes older human women because they're experienced, but still younger than him and their life force, or mana (which gets stale and "rancid" at the same rate regardless of species, making older members of long-lived species particularly unpleasant regardless of how gracefully or how little they externally age) feels good to him. Their kobold drinking buddy, on the other hand, thinks of the older human woman as being kinda cute in an orc-womanly fashion (and prefers women with a pleasing scent), and the halfling decides both are too old for his taste (and cannot stand being overwhelmed by a rather aggressive dagon).

Our main heroes, Stunk, human swordsman, and Zel, elf archer, travel the lands far and wide. Do they seek glory, riches or adventure? Nay, they wanna find the best lay out of all! Thankfully for them, prostitution is legal and brothels abound, so finding a partner is no issue.

...Which cannot be said for them actually agreeing on which race is the best. In order to put the discussion to rest, they start posting reviews of their "encounters" on the adventure board, though their escapades quickly become a profession in and of itself as they find themselves getting paid for their work to further fund their journey. Along for the ride is Crimvael "Crim", a {{Hermaphrodite}} angel who finds himself reluctantly roped into their adventures out of gratitude for them saving his life and since he could use the extra coin while he waits to get back into Heaven.

* SexAsARiteOfPassage: Averted. Despite being introduced as a virgin in a series where EveryoneHasLotsOfSex, Crim loses his virginity within a day with little fanfare. It also fails to cause any change in Crim's character on its own, with his acceptance and even enjoyment of casual sex only happening after many repeat experiences. Even then, he's still a bit apprehensive about it, doing it largely for the money his reviews get or out of loneliness if Stunk and Zel aren't present. His friends do have a reaction much more akin to this once he goes to a succugirl brothel entirely on his own, however.

** The myconid succu-joint in volume 2 of the main manga is called "Take Your Man-Mushroom To...", but in ''Comic Anthology: Darkness'' volume 2 it's called "Take Your Man-Mushroom To ''Heaven''..." This is despite the awkward, incomplete name having previously been said to the result of the proprietress writing the first joke she could think of on the shop's sign and running out of space.

* InconsistentDub: The name of the fairy succu-joint visited by the Reviewers is localized as "Nectar" in volume 1 of the manga, but is called "Honey Flower" in the ''Ecstasy Days'' volume of the light novel.

* ActionizedAdaptation: While there are a decent number of battles shown throughout the manga, they're very few and far inbetween, with all of them also being very short. Not only does the anime expand upon the fight scenes from the manga, including turning the single end-of-chapter image about the Reviewers working to earn money after blowing it while drunk into a full-blown montage of them traveling the land completing quests in order to do so, it even adds a few of its own in places where a fight wasn't even implied to happen in the manga. The longest and most detailed fight scenes of the franchise, however, happen in the novel adaptation.

* BodySushi: A variation of nyotaimori mixed with yakiniku plays out here with the salamander girls, who have a service where they let men cook meat on their literally hot bodies. Naturally, the boys try using her throat (and other places) to cook some (actual) sausages. The salamander in chapter 8/episode 4 even allows people to get handsy with her (it costs extra), although it's a dangerous thing because her body temperature will ''cook'' the unwary. Zel and Crim actually appreciate the cooking method because her mana seeps into the meat they cook on her, enhancing the taste and flavor. Crim himself gets lucky in more ways than one since his mana can resist the extreme heat.

* AttractiveZombie: Necrowaif's FleshGolem receptionist is remarkably cute for a quantity of mutilated corpses held together with crude stitching and large screws. In the manga, she even quips that [[SerialProstheses her bust was willed to her by a friend who finally went to Heaven,]] Igor style.

* ActionizedAdaptation: While there are a decent number of battles shown throughout the manga, they're very few and far inbetween, with all of them also being very short. Not only does the anime expand upon the fight scenes from the manga, including turning the single end-of-chapter image about the Reviewers working to earn money after blowing it while drunk into a full-blown montage of them traveling the land completing quests in order to do so, it even adds a few of its own in places where a fight wasn't even implied to happen in the manga. The longest and most detailed fight scenes of the franchise, however, happens in the novel adaptation.

* HealingMagicIsTheHardest: Chapter 43 quickly mentions that while magic might be said to be the cause of about any injury, using magic to heal them is practically impossible. This is further complicated with the fact that there are too many species and too few doctors to actually deal with illnesses.

An {{anime}} television series adaptation by Passione premiered on January 11, 2020, which was available for streaming on Creator/{{Funimation}}, offering both subtitles[[note]]First three episodes.[[/note]] and dubbing[[note]]For the first episode.[[/note]] [[https://i.imgur.com/B8JhcKG.jpg until they stopped simulcasting it later that month]]. However, other regional streaming services, such as [[https://twitter.com/animelab/status/1223830422984855552?s=21 Australia's AnimeLab]], and [[https://twitter.com/Wakanim/status/1223703089498206210 France's Wakanim]], continued to stream the series with subtitles.[[note]][=AnimeLab's=] service also extends through New Zealand, and Wakanim has a Russian service, but their nordic regional service has since been pulled. Though, their streams are [[NoExportForYou region locked.]][[/note]]

** In Chapter 44, the angel Craell absentmindedly begins to do this when they walk in on Crim and a Demia clone doing the deed. However, Crim spots Craell, who flees in embarrassment. Later, Craell mentions they "subconsciously indulged in their usual habit", which likely points to them and possibly other angels being voyeurs.
