Note : From my source, episode 1 and 4 had the connected plot while episode 2 and 3 had standalone plots
Overall Story Score : 6
Story 1 : 7
For a two episode stint, the frontpage plot for this series was absolutely delightful focusing on our two main characters putting them into situations that contrasted on our female lead's public appearance adding more motivation for her to break free from the constraints and expectations society placed on her. The dynamic between the two leads, especially the sexual power struggle that leaned both ways throughout the story was extremely compelling from an entertainment standpoint and reflected the direction the plot was going in which helped keep the narrative feeling cohesive and clear to the viewer.
Story 2 : 6
Basically your usual childhood friend next door plot where our MC suddenly realizes "how big she's grown. Wow I never noticed she's become a woman I've always seen her as a little girl" and it goes on from there. Nothing special to say however the comedic direction present in this entire series was very much present here elevating an otherwise mundane plot with a couple chuckles. Definitely nothing to write home about however it kept things fresh enough to not be boring.
Story 3 : 5
Of the three plots, this one had the creepiest vibes which weirded me out the most. Overall I've seen my fair share of creepy hentai from the horrifying vore and rape to the humiliation and mind break, while this was nowhere near that level it was the most boring of the three which is far more offensive in a medium built on fapping but also entertainment. The fact that it was dead center in the region of creepy hentai meant it was nothing outrageous but was just subtle enough to bother me mentally. Furthermore it was a cut and dry as you can get with it's taboo play and there was no chemistry between the father and daughter making the dialogue feel completely disconnected. The slight offset from normalcy made the watch experience just uncomfortable enough that it failed to satisfy the bare minimum of what hentai is supposed to do
Art : 7
The art and animation of this show was probably in the upper echelons of production value for the time it was released in. Characters did not any outrageously bad designs and some artistic choices probably from the original source drove the comedy which was the brightest aspect of the show. The characters also had different characteristics and overall designs varied so it didn't feel lazy and effort was put into building a populated world not solely centered on our leads. Especially in b-shots and backgrounds, the art never fell way beyond the expected level of quality from this kind of project and never took the viewer out of the experience. The animation was top notch in facilitating the comedy that was situational based and relied on the visuals to make the viewer laugh, the animation did not let me down in this aspect and the visual comedy was definitely there.
Character : 8
For the two stories I enjoyed, the characters were really what kept me watching. Especially for our first story Shigure and Komatsu had great chemistry in their dialogue and you could feel that a budding relationship was developing organically between them. The back and forth dialogue between them offered comedic moments in the show and as mentioned before helped the viewer follow who held the power. For the second story, it was mainly a one man show of the Onii-chan while it felt as if Konami was braindead during most of the scene till she realized she actually had a voice. MC had a couple visual gags that played well with the situation he found himself in which kept me entertained. For our third story, personally the father figure rubbed me the wrong way and the daughter's role was too ive much like Konami barely contributing to the situation she was involved in.
Like I said at the start, HHH Triple Ecchi was made to appeal to the mass audience. It's a simple snack you can pick up whenever and probably won't think about much afterwards, well except for the CG Komatsu sperm which will haunt my dream for the foreseeable future. It's another safe bet that won't offend you too much and even if it does it won't hammer at your morality or humanity in anyway that any other average hentai would. This vanilla-esque approach is probably why it is a decently popular hentai and can be picked up by your average weeblet.
