History VideoGame / ChoAniki

* TheBurlesqueOfVenus: One boss in Ai Cho Aniki is a long-haired muscular guy standing on a gigantic clam shell holding the Venus pose.

%%* MachoCamp

* WorldOfMuscleMen: The series is full of ridiculously muscular men, though the first game is a bit less so than the sequels.

%%* WidgetSeries

* FanservicePack: Zigzagged with Benten. She initially donned a plain dress with a modestly built chest in the first game, ''Ai Cho Aniki'' depicted her wearing a strapless leotard before ''Bakuretsu Ranto Hen'' puts her in a more modest but still revealing qipao, then ''Kyuukyoku Muteki Ginga Saikyou Otoko'' placed her back in a normal dress before ''Zero'' plays it straight by giving her a more muscular body and larger breasts along with placing her in a leotard once more, this time it does not cover the back of her upper body.

Still, for the love of God, read [[http://www.i-mockery.com/minimocks/sexual-games/10.php this]] and discover just how bizarre the whole thing is. You won't believe us if we just tell you. (Note, however, that there's a small error: what they call the first game is actually the second. The first featured similar imagery, but the leads were the more standard action-game hero type Idaten and the ''female'' Benten; the two would become semi-recurring characters in the series, and are usually (but not always) who you're controlling in game. Samson and Adon were [[MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch defecting aliens]] who served as option characters in the original game and went on to have bigger roles in subsequent games.)

* ExcusePlot: Generally has to do with protein powder, although in ''Seinaru Protein Densetsu'', you're playing as a blob of unspecified protein... ThatCameOutWrong.

Playing ''Cho Aniki'' is a journey through a long, bizarre psychosexual dream, featuring recurring characters such as Adon and Samson, a pair of musclebound bodybuilders with a holes in their heads that they shoot bullets out of, and Adam, a giant naked man in a saucer that looks like a moon.

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: While the first game was still very, ''very'' strange, it wasn't all that homoerotic compared to later games in the series. ''Ai Cho Aniki'', however, turned the camp UpToEleven and the series never looked back.

''Cho Aniki'' ("Super Big Brother") is a series of side-scrolling {{Shoot Em Up}}s originally produced by Creator/{{NCS}} (although there was a later shift of designers). Gameplay is pretty conventional and a lot like ''VideoGame/{{Darius}}''. Really, the series only has one claim to fame:

* MachoCamp
* MindScrew
* MrFanservice (and also FanDisservice)

* RatedMForManly

* TestosteronePoisoning

* WidgetSeries

* ''Cho Aniki: Seinaru Protein Densetsu'' (2003, Playstation 2)
