The 16 miniepisodes (seven minutes apiece) in this TV series aired on the "Wonderful" anthology in 1999. Based on a manga by Tarajiro Kishi, the vignettes have a single theme: teenage boys and grown men making idiots of themselves to stare up girls' skirts and down their blouses. The results of all this voyeurism is a veritable epidemic of nosebleeds--a Japanese symbol of arousal. The participants in this parade of repressed hormones make Bill and Ted look like intellectuals. Director Ryutaro Nakamura uses constantly shifting graphic styles, processed live action, cut-outs, drawn animation, and computer graphics to infuse some variation and visual interest into the repetitive material, but it's a losing battle. "Colorful" isn't gross enough to be offensive, it's merely sophomoric and silly. (Rated 17 and older: nudity, sexual humor, alcohol and tobacco use) "--Charles Solomon"
