Cream Lemon

Cream Lemon (くりいむレモン, Kuriimu Remon) is an erotic OVA anthology series produced by Soeishinsha and Fairy Dust. The series spanned 39 OVA episodes from 1984 to 1992. In 1987, five Cream Lemon episodes were licensed by Excalibur Films and released on VHS in North America. It is one of the earliest English anime dubs, as well as one of the first hentai anime English dubs ever produced.

The English dub was produced in 1987 through 1988 by adult film production company Excalibur Films. It was released as part of the company's Brothers Grime X-Rated Cartoons series, which had three straight-to-video releases. The first volume contained Telepathist Ai-Q 315 and Ome-1, two anime from different studios, and was released in 1986. Volume two contained Star Trap and SF Super-Dimension Legend Rall: the latter episode was renamed as Offenders of the Universe, and many characters were renamed after the cast from Excalibur Films's live action adult film Sex Wars (1985). The English dub takes many liberties with the script and editing, sometimes changing entire scenes or creating new ones.

The final Brothers Grime video was titled Pandora... An Erotic Trilogy and released in 1988. This volume was horror-themed, and contained three Cream Lemon episodes with supernatural plot elements:


 * Cream Lemon Special: Dark, retitled The Dark Forest
 * White Shadow, retitled Black Widow
 * Demon Doll, retitled Living Shadows

France
In the early 2000s, French home video company Kooki Vision adapted the Excalibur Films edits for a Francophone release. The episodes were released on VHS on Kooki's main label, but the DVDs were released on their side label Banzai Club. These DVDs also claimed every episode was from Cream Lemon, including Telepathist Ai-Q 315 and Ome-1, and an unrelated OVA called Balthus: Tia's Radiance. The French dub also attributes the director of Cream Lemon Part 4: Pop Chaser to the entire series, putting his name on the cover and index menu of each DVD.
