Hentai XXX is a new and unknown beast. It offers a free signup - but a word of warning about that in a moment - and it offers us exclusive content from new Japanese studios. The members' area carries movies and bonuses, and those movies are from DVDs. And it is, of course, all mad and wonderful artwork with all kinds of naughty sexy fantasies being played out by cartoon girls of indiscernible age. There are girls with girls, girls and boys, in fact 22 categories of adult cartoon entertainment to check out.

Arriving in the members' area you find a very clean looking place where the images really stand out. These are shown like DVD covers, with dates showing and the updates happen at one new scene per week. There is a top menu to take you to all the videos and the Niche area, where you find the 12 categories, and there are also links to the bonus content and your bookmarks (favourites). It's all very simple and easy to use, so no hassles there.

Clicking to a video, and there were 181 to choose from, you find another neat and clean page for your viewing. There was a large Flash screen - and make sure you have your player up to date or it is liable to crash - and then some details about the scene. I saw movies from studios such as Discovery, and you are told the release date, how many downloads, and the runtimes - around 30 minutes per scene. There are some sample images from the scene beneath this and a place where you can rate and comment. You then have a link to another page to view the stream, or take the download.

Scenes were offered in 240p and 480p here with small sized files for easy downloading. The streams ran fine for me and even though there was only one option it was a good one. The sound was fine, with American dubbing, and the image was clear. There are also links to other scene from the same DVD, so moving on to a new scene is nice and easy. And the videos take you through all kinds of stories and action, so they are not just cartoon fantasy sex.

Head back to the Niche area and you find categories such as BDSM, Anal, Blonde, Hairy, Hand job and Uniform. There is probably a bit of something for everyone here and it is easy to find. There are no galleries but there are bonuses. This turned out to be a big movie theatre with 'real' action, and it looks like this gets updated regularly too; so a nice bonus and a bit of a change from the main content.

Okay, the word of warning: the join page is wonderfully vague about what you are doing. But it does say that it is a free sign up. You have to give your card details for your 'Free Lifetime Upgrade' and there is a cross-sale already checked over on the right. This seems to lead you to a one day free trial of My Porn Downloads which recurs at 39.95 if not cancelled within 24 hours. There is nothing on the terms and conditions to say what Hentai XXX might actually cost; perhaps it is totally free as long as you cancel the 'add-ons.' Proceed with caution.
