North American publisher Seven Seas Entertainment announced a spicy new license today. The company's latest acquisition is Ryoma Kitada's SUPER HXEROS manga, known in Japan as Dokyuu Hentai HxEros, with the first volume scheduled for a February 2021 launch.
The series about "heroes powered by horniness" recently inspired an anime adaptation, which is running as part of the Summer 2020 season via Funimation. Here's how Seven Seas describes it:
When the mantis-like aliens known as Kiseichuu descend on Earth, they have one goal: eradicate the human race. They do so by absorbing humans’ H-energy--the sexual passion that fuels so many people and keeps the species reproducing! The government has assembled an elite team of superheroes to fight the bugs, aided by technology that allows them to transfer their erotic energy into super powers.
High schooler Retto Enjo is recruited onto the team, partnering with four beautiful girls, one of whom is his childhood friend Kirara Hoshino. Though they were once close, they’ve grown apart in recent years, since Kirara turned distant and aloof after an encounter with the Kiseichuu in her youth. Can Retto save the world, keep his team together, and maybe even melt his childhood friend’s newly cold exterior?
