Isekai Onsen Paradise is a new Winter 24 anime that premiered over a week ago. The anime’s title makes it clear that this is an isekai anime, but the question ‘Is Isekai Onsen Paradise an ecchi series?’ is no doubt on some fans’ minds.
Given that onsen episodes are typically chock-full of fanservice, this new anime’s title and premise imply that this is well within the ecchi genre.
The answer may not be clear though, given that it has flown under the radar due to the huge number of hyped shows this season. This is despite its cast featuring a popular VTuber.
New Short-Form Isekai Anime’s Cast Features Popular VTuber
Isekai Onsen Paradise is a new anime by Wolfsbane (of Banished from the Hero's Party Season 1 fame) and BloomZ. What makes it unique compared to other isekai shows is its short-form episodes and cast.
Instead of having 20-minute episodes, this series’ episodes are only under four minutes in length. This makes it an incredibly quick watch.
What’s more, it also features an interesting voice cast. Even though most of its cast members are newcomers, one of its characters is voiced by the popular VTuber, Mikeneko.
Credited as Koito Ria, Mikeneko plays the role of the elf Lilium. She is joined by Marie Miyake, the voice actress of Ringo in Re:cycle of the Penguindrum and Suzuka in My Dress-Up Darling.
So, Is Isekai Onsen Paradise an Ecchi Anime?
As its title implies, this anime features a protagonist named Kouzou Yukawa who gets transported into another world following his untimely death.
Luckily for Kouzou, he gets reincarnated near a hot spring. After all, Kouzou is a hot spring enthusiast during his life on Earth.
Given that the anime centers on hot springs, it should come as no surprise that the answer to ‘Is Isekai Onsen Paradise an ecchi anime?’ is a resounding yes.
Even though the protagonist isn’t shown to be as lecherous as other ecchi protagonists, the fact that this anime features nudity in its uncensored version does put it firmly in the ecchi category.
Where to Watch the Isekai Onsen Paradise Anime
Isekai Onsen Paradise may not be as long as the big ecchi shows of the season like Chained Soldier and Gushing Over Magical Girls, but it should still pique the interests of many genre fans.
For those who want to give it a shot, the anime is not streaming on typical platforms. Instead, Isekai Onsen Paradise is being streamed officially on Coolmic.
