Bible Black (バイブルブラック Baiburuburakku?) is an eroge video game for Microsoft Windows. It was developed by ActiveSoft and published by Kitty Media on July 14, 2000. Milky Studio has since been adapted the game into several hentai original video animations. The first adaption, simply titled Bible Black, consisted of six episodes animating numerous scenes from the video game. The following year, a two-episode OVA titled Origins was released, which served as a prequel to the events of Bible Black. In April 2004 Milky Studio produced a sequel series titled New Testament, which follows the exploits of the original characters ten years after Bible Black takes place. The latest OVA adaption, Only, consists of gaiden stories explaining what happened to various characters during or following the plot of Bible Black.

[edit] Plot

The Bible Black series features frequent sex and horror scenes, and revolves around a high school rumored to have been the base of operations for a coven twelve years prior to the premier installment. Composed of this school's students, the self-dubbed "Witchcraft Club" practiced black magic in a storage room deep within the basement of the institute. Both teachers and students practicing the dark occult religion involving incantation sex and human sacrifice is a common occurrence in Bible Black and its many adaptations.

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.

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 officially published in English in 2006, under the name Bible Black: The Game.

[edit] Bible Black: Begins

Bible Black: Begins (バイブルブラック: ビギンス Baiburuburakku: Biginsu?, Bible Black: Begins) is the eponymous first OVA adaption of the video game. At an ordinary high school, the teachers and staff are practicing a dark religion. By devoting their bodies to perversion and chanting dark spells, they control the lusts of the student body. Everywhere the students turn, they are drawn to acts of perversion, even in public. The cult is run by the school nurse, Kitami Reika. Looking for a virgin girl to serve as a vessel for her own reincarnation, she holds special counseling sessions for the female students.

Before Kitami, the magic club was run by the art teacher Hiroko Takashiro. When she was a student alongside Kitami, she found the Bible Black. It was Kitami, however, who used the book to pervert the students and teachers as her followers, from which the current events are set into motion. Taki Minase, a student of the school, discovers the book, but is seduced by Kaori Saeki, the head of the Magic Club, and then is possessed by a lesser demon. Following this, Kitami takes over the Magic Club through magical subversion.

Kitami then pursues Kurumi Imari, a girl who is Minase's neighbor and childhood friend. Minase must either help Kitami to pervert Imari with a ritual orgy or fight the dark lust growing inside of him and protect her.

All six episodes of Bible Black have since been re-cut as a 110min. film titled Bible Black Complete Version (バイブルブラック: 完全版 Baiburuburakku Kanzenban?).

[edit] Bible Black: New Testament

Bible Black: New Testament (バイブルブラック: 新 Baiburuburakku: Shin?, Bible Black: New), is the third installment of the OVA series. Years have passed since Walpurgis Night, and the girls of the Witchcraft Club have all graduated and made their way in the world. Both Shiraki and Saeki become teachers at their school, while Takashiro becomes a nun. Imari has become a police woman, who serves as a psychic investigator in the Tokken division. Her team is looking into a series of horribly gruesome murder cases that all happened during sexual intercourse.

Strangely, witnesses see a ghostly figure at the crime scenes. Saeki restarts the Witchcraft Club with a new crop of girls, but is she fighting Kitami or helping her? Meanwhile, Imari and her Tokken subordinate, Aki, are caught up in a bank robbery conducted by occult robbers. An impromptu ceremony performed at the scene causes Kitami to take over the possessed Imari. In the aftermath, Imari steals the Lance of Longinus from the bank vault that the robbers were after.

Imari/Kitami has found the virginal "Scarlet woman" in Aki. She indulges in the sexual ceremony with her using the Lance of Longinus. Meanwhile, the ghostly figure, identified as Jody Crowley, and Takashiro both interfere with the ceremony but with different intentions. The Lance becomes permanently lodged within Aki's vagina and she is now targeted by the various forces of black magic.

The final ceremony climaxes with the black magic forces of Imari/Kitami and Jody Crowley competing over the Scarlet woman. Attacks fly all around while Takashiro and Captain Yuge struggle to defeat both of them and end the dark ceremony. When Jody seems to emerge triumphant, the Lance of Longinus reappears out of Aki and reanimates the original grimoire, Bible Black. The devil emerges to take the souls of contract: Kitami Reika and Jody Crowley. A final effort by Takashiro manages to seal the grimoire while Jody's soul is taken and Kitami manages to possess Jody's body instead. The final scene seems peaceful with everybody content with the world, but in one of the final shots, we see that Aki's laptop screen saver happens to be several images of a menacing Kitami, hinting that there may be a third season.

Most of the characters from Bible Black return in New Testament, however, Minase has yet to make an appearance and is only mentioned once. It is possible that under the influence of Kitami, Imari killed Minase even before the events of New Testament since Kitami did mention to Minase that she would kill him after possessing Imari's body. It is also possible that Takashiro had something to do with his disappearance, since during episode 3, Kitami/Imari blames Takashiro for taking "my Minase away from me." Each episode of New Testament has a title beginning with the letter "R".

All six episodes of New Testament have since been re-cut as a 120min. film titled New Bible Black Complete Version: Restored ~Rinne~ (新バイブルブラック完全版 Restored 〜輪廻〜 Shin Baiburuburakku Kanzenban Restored ~ Rinne ~?), and in addition contain extended animation.
