Wordsworth...

Recently, I picked up Wordsworth...
God created Light and Shadow and separated them with the power of the divine Wordsworth Tablet. One day, the Wordsworth Tablet shall be read and all will be understood, and Light and Shadow will join and become complete. But someone has shattered the Tablet.

The Tribe of Light and the Tribe of Shadow each blame the other and war ensues for 100 years. The story revolves around the bumbling but very skilled Prince Astral of the Tribe of Shadow who may be the one to bring the Tribes together and restore peace.

Volume 1
The legend has survived for generation. The Wordsworth tablet, which will unlock the secrets of the Universe for the one who can decipher it, has been shattered. The warring tribes of Light and Shadow blame each other, and their accusations lead to all out war!

Astral, the undisciplined heir to the throne of the Shadow Forces, lusts for his bride-to-be, Sharon (Jenna Jameson). But Sharon, an accomplished warrior herself, feels her body drawn toward Caesar, the Shadow Tribe's bravest swordsman.

Sharon battles alongside Caesar during an assault by the Light Forces, and her ferocious beauty captivates Sir Fabris, the leader of the Tribe of Light. Fabris' army loses the battle, but he vows that he will one day get Sharon into his bed, the hard way, if necessary.

Meanwhile, Astral takes his sexual frustrations out on Maria (Nikki Dial), a Light Tribe sorceress who has been taken captive. As Astral penetrates Maria, Sir Fabris prepares to launch a penetration of his own: a full-scale attack on the Tribe of Shadow!

War drives them. Women drive them mad. And Wordsworth is their prize!

Volume 2
The sorceress Maria (Nikki Dial) manages to escape from Astral and begins to free the other Light Tribe prisoners in the castle, including a beautiful girl who has been sexually ravaged in a dungeon.

Meanwhile, on his way to the battle, Astral rescues Nina, a faithful servant to his father, from a vile cave beast. She reveals her desire for him, and gives her virginity to the young prince.

In the heat of battle, Sir Fabris gets the better of the beautiful warrior Sharon (Jenna Jameson) and proceeds to have his way with her body. Can Astral save her?

The forces of Light and Shadow clash as Astral, Sharon, Sir Fabris and the sorceress Maria are caught up in the slashing of swords and the mystical energies of magic!

Volume 3
The saga continues! Struck with amnesia and banished to a distant wasteland by the magic of the sorceress Maria (Nikki Dial), Astral takes many years to make his way back to civilization. When he does, he finds that Sir Fabris has aged, and that Maria has a beautiful daughter named Mew.

The passage of time has not diminished the search for the fragments of the Wordsworth tablet, however. What the leaders of the two Tribes cannot know is that their aides, Tessio and Menza, have a secret pact that will play havoc with the balance of power once the tablet is resurrected.

Struggling to rediscover his identity and mistaken for the legendary "lost" warrior Pollux, Astral wanders the Kingdom of Light, fulfills his sexual desire for Mew, and finally decides to journey to the Kingdom of Shadows in an effort to unravel the mystery of his past.

Volume 4
With no barrier in his way, Sir Fabris mobilizes his armies. The warrior Sharon, heartsick for the long lost prince Astral, leads the defense of the Shadow Forces. Meanwhile, Watoshika, the Lord of the Shadow Tribe and Astral's father, despairs of ever seeing his son again. He overpowers Rita and makes her his sexual plaything, but in his distraction Tessio and Menza attack him.

Volume 5
His encounter with Sharon (Jenna Jameson) and Caesar enables Astral to remember his true identity as heir to the throne of the Tribe of Shadow. He and Sharon celebrate their reunion with sex, and together with Fabris' granddaughter, Mew, they rush to save Watoshika, Rita, and Nina from schemes of Tessio and Menza.

Surrounded by his beautiful sexual conquests, Astral leads the united forces of Light and Shadow in an attack on Tessio and Menza. With time running out, the future of both kingdoms is in his hands, and only the secret of his true ancestry can save them all.
Follow the exploits of Astral, the undisciplined heir to the throne of the Shadow Forces as he battles the forces of the Tribe of Light and lusts for his bride-to-be, Sharon. The worlds envisioned in Wordsworth are fairly well realized. I've always had a soft spot for cat girls and Nina, the resident cat girl in the Tribe of Darkness, is by far, my favorite character.

Wordsworth, even without its H scenes would still be a fairly entertaining sword and sorcery tale. Although, there are some animal-people H scenes, the majority of H scenes are conventional and somewhat disappointing. On the bright side, there is some blood and gore, however, it's mostly slicing and dicing. Wordsworth isn't particularly old, but, the animation has the look and feel of a vintage anime. Despite the dated appearance of the animation, the quality is reasonably good. Given the subject matter, though, expectations are not very high.

I heard about Wordsworth years ago, but, it wasn't until recently that I seriously considered adding it to my collection. This series was originally released in a one episode per DVD format and wasn't really worth the expense of buying multiple DVDs. Wordsworth has since been re-released in a single DVD format and is a much better value. Overall, Wordsworth is entertaining, but, not necessarily because of its H scenes. If you're looking for an entertaining, epic sword and sorcery tale and you're 18 or older, you might enjoy Wordsworth. But, if you're looking for good H scenes, you'll probably be disappointed with Wordsworth. I gave Wordsworth a 2 out of 5.
