Character design will be done by Akitomo Yamamoto (chief animation director and sub-character designer for The Girl in Twilight).
Anime News Network describes the manga series’ story as such:
“The manga’s story begins when an unknown invader known as the “Kiseichū” (wordplay on the Japanese word for “parasite”) invades Earth and begins robbing people of the source of their erotic “H energy,” depriving them of the will to live. Retto Enjō, a high school boy, joins the hero organization HxEros, and alongside four beautiful high school girls, will save the Earth from the alien threat.”
(Yes, that’s really how the story is described)
Dokyuu Hentai HxEros is a manga series written by Ryouma Kitada. It was first published in April 2017 in Shueisha’s Jump SQ. magazine. The manga series currently has 900,000 copies in print.
