Warning, this tape has erotic content. Fantasy anime is filled with a profusion of fantasy worlds, full of exotic races so I guess it does make sense to think that some will marry outside their race. And some percentage of those will have, um, compatibility problems of a sexual nature. And that's the core of the plot for this strange exercise in exploring the unneccessary. The couple themselves are actually cute, the elf being an interesting rendition of a shy young wife, so you almost feel guilty for peering into their private lifes. Realising this the makers have also added some gratuitous, very soft core, sex at random points to keep the audience interested, often involving characters other than the main couple. At the end of the day the tape is just too weak to be really interesting, with the main question being how the writers decided this was a story that needed to be told. Also if you were expecting high fantasy or romance look elsewhere, as the mood is very domestic and mundane.
