Hamuo Biography & Facts

Bible Black (バイブルブラック, Baiburu Burakku) is an eroge video game developed by ActiveSoft and published on July 14, 2000. Sei Shoujo is the original creator of the game's artwork, character design and penned the original script for the game. It received notable critical acclaim for a eroge hentai anime. Milky Studio has since adapted the game into several adult anime adaptations. The first adaptation, simply titled Bible Black, consisted of six episodes covering numerous scenes from the video game. The following year, a two-episode OVA titled Bible Black: Origins was released, which served as a prequel to the events of Bible Black. In April 2004, Milky Studio produced a sequel series titled Bible Black: New Testament, which follows the exploits of the original characters ten years after Bible Black takes place. The latest OVA adaptation, Bible Black Only, consists of gaiden stories explaining what happened to various characters during the plot of Bible Black. The game was republished in 2006 as Bible Black Slim featuring extended scenes, followed by a short sequel named Bible Black Infection in 2008. Neither of these games involved the original artist/writer Sei Shoujo as he had left ActiveSoft by this time. Synopsis Setting The game takes place in an academy rumored to have been the base of operations for a coven, twelve years prior to the premiere installment. This witchcraft club practiced black magic in a storage room of the academy's basement. Plot Taki Minase, a high school student, finds a book of black magic in the isolated storage room of his school. He begins practicing black magic, which has extreme sexual effects that benefit him and his friends, until evil comes forth from the dark craft. Eventually, the origins of the book are revealed, as is the incident on Walpurgis Night twelve years prior, when the evil force was at its strongest. After coming to his senses, Minase struggles to get himself out of the darkness into which he has put himself and his best friend and secret love, Kurumi Imari. Characters Taki Minase (水無瀬 多喜, Minase Taki) The main character, a high school student who discovers the magic book (known as "Bible Black") in a school basement and becomes a pawn of powerful dark magic. Kurumi Imari (伊万里 胡桃, Imari Kurumi) Minase's childhood friend, neighbor and de facto girlfriend. She comes over to wake Minase up every morning. She knows everything about Minase, and tries to help him in every way. She is holder of a black belt in Shorinji Kempo and very tough. She is good at cooking and takes care of Minase when Yukiko is away. Hiroko Takashiro (高城 寛子, Takashiro Hiroko) The high school's art teacher, who is in charge of the art club, which both Minase and Imari are part of. She is very popular among the students for her good looks and kind personality. Reika Kitami (北見 麗華, Kitami Reika) The mysterious high school nurse and the main antagonist of the series. She seems to take a liking to Minase, and knows about his experiments with black magic. She was used as a sacrificial virgin in a ritual for the original Witchcraft Group (which was initially led by Miss Takashiro). However, since she was in fact not a virgin (she had been previously gang-raped), the ritual went horribly awry. When the gates of Hell opened, she made a deal with Satan that kept her alive in exchange for her soul. Now, the time that Satan gave her is running out, and she is searching for a new virginal female body to use as a reincarnation. Kaori Saeki (佐伯 香織, Saeki Kaori) Minase's classmate. She is obsessed with the occult, and has established a new occult group based on the one from twelve years ago. She knows a lot about black magic, and her fortune telling is very popular. She becomes interested in Minase and tries to seduce him after learning he possesses the book. Rika Shiraki (白木 里香, Shiraki Rika) The head of the student council. Wealthy and untouchable, she is very popular among the boys. She develops a crush on Minase after spells are cast on her. Jun Amatsuki (天月 純, Amatsuki Jun) A member of Saeki's Occult Club. Maki Kurimoto (栗本 真紀, Kurimoto Maki) A member of Saeki's Occult Club. Miyuki Nonogusa (野々草 美由紀, Nonogusa Miyuki) A member of the high school swim team. She was once in the same class as Minase. The other members of the swim team envy her. Shinobu Kobayashi (小林 忍, Kobayashi Shinobu) Captain of the high school swim team. She loathes Nonogusa out of jealousy. Mikimoto (美樹本) A member of the high school swim team. One of Kobayashi's flunkies. Yukiko Minase (水無瀬 由起子, Minase Yukiko) Presented as Minase's stepsister in the anime, Yukiko is actually Minase's live-in cousin and guardian in the original game, though the two act like siblings. She is a strong-willed person, and enjoys bullying Minase, as well as teasing him at home with flashy outfits. Being a Latin and French major student in college, she helps Minase translate the contents of the magic book. Mika Ito (伊藤 美香, Itō Mika) Minase's classmate and one of Saeki's followers. She is the first victim of Minase's practice of magic from the book. Ayumi Murai (村井 亜由美, Murai Ayumi) Minase's classmate and one of Saeki's followers. She finds out that Minase can use black magic, and asks him to chant an incantation for her. Bible Black: Origins characters Nami Kozono (小園 奈美, Kozono Nami) A mysterious, raven-haired lesbian who is the president of the school's student council. She is very popular with the boys, despite not being interested in men. She eventually becomes the leader of the witchcraft club, setting in motion the events of the original Bible Black. Junko Mochida (持田 潤子, Mochida Junko) Nami Kozono's lesbian lover who is also a member of the Student Council. She refers to Nami affectionately as "Onee-sama" (Big sister). Junko is the group's first experiment with magic; she was put under a simple spell that caused her to masturbate in front of the whole school during a speech. This both caused Junko social rejection and caused Takashiro to establish the Witchcraft Group. Visual novel The game has twelve different endings, and the storyline often diverges, based on choices made by the player, which influence "neutral" endings, "chaos" endings and "law" endings. However, there is only one outcome regarded by its developers as the "true" ending. Bible Black was published in English in 2006, under the name Bible Black: The Game after Activesoft ceased operations. A port was released only in Japan for the PlayStation Portable's UMD format, where it was not required to receive a CERO rating. Anime Bible Black Bible Black (バイブルブラック, Baiburu Burakku, Bible Black) is the eponymous first OVA adaptation of the video game. An academy student, Taki Minase, finds a strange book, the Bible Black, while exploring an abandoned room in the school's basement. With the help of his cousin, he translates the Latin-French writings and finds them to be instructions for dark magic, which is actually a form of Kabbalistic satanism (the ....
