Witchblade, this manga that I used to think was original and unique, is actually a derivative of an older work. The comic, born in 1995, inspired the manga, and not the other way around. Its concept? A mythical glove, the Witchblade, passed down through the ages to legendary heroines: Cleopatra, Joan of Arc, Marie Curie... and up to the current heroine. It wasn't until 2006 that the anime made its debut, revolutionizing the universe and transforming the glove into a cursed bracelet, ready to sacrifice its new mistress for insane power. But that's not all: if the original is already a bomb on its own, imagine the hentai version. Yes, there, it's the apogee of sex, with parody scenarios that defy imagination. Let's compare the two versions, and you can judge which one will burn your brain the most.
Let's start with the original, Sara Pezzini. Even though she remains unpopular in x-rated galleries, what I found for you is quite impressive. She is seen going wild in positions worthy of a hellish Kama Sutra: sodomy, fellatio, double penetration... She's a police lieutenant, but her daily life is far more... spicy than what the TV series dared to show. The producers should have picked up the concept for Netflix, between Jessica Jones and Daredevil. Yet, physically, Sara isn't a beauty icon. No big breasts, no generous buttocks... In short, a heroine without real sexual appeal, which explains why she ended up forgotten.
In the Japanese manga version, the heroine Masane Amaha is an explosive MILF. Big breasts, generous curves, and a look that already makes you fantasize before she even removes a piece of clothing. The anime was actually censored in Japan during its first broadcast, as the scenes were so torrid. Masane wakes up amnesiac after an earthquake, with a cursed glove on her wrist and a little girl by her side. Recruited by an anti-terrorist agency, she becomes a killing machine. But the real question is: who to parody? The human version, a sublime MILF ready for anything, or her possessed form, deranged and sadistic? To not leave you in the dark, I've separated the two galleries. Look and choose your goddess of vice.

If the manga version managed to dominate the original, it's thanks to the art of Japan's geniuses, a country where sex and art are unbeatable. As a fan, I dare not judge the two versions: they each have their charms. But the comic parody remains a rare and precious find, impossible to find elsewhere. Who knows if one day this saga won't be resurrected on Netflix, becoming an essential Hollywood reboot? In any case, for Epicureans like me, Masane's galleries in her possessed form are a feast for the eyes and fantasies.
