We’ve covered crossdressing, but in gender bender anime, the difference is that a character’s body physically transforms into that of a different gender, usually by some sort of magical means. Things get topsy-turvy in this list as various characters adjust to these physical changes!
Life changes drastically from one gender to another, it would seem. Depending on the medium, genre, and storyline, this may be a one-time temporary change, a recurring change, or even permanent.
Sometimes it’s the same person; sometimes, it’s a man and woman sharing one body. If a man and a woman swap bodies. Male-to-female transformations tend to vastly outnumber the opposite when this trope is in play.
The definition of “gender” being used here refers to a character’s physical sex, not gender identity. Imagine you wake up in the opposite gender’s body; what’s the first thing that you would do? While you ponder on that, here’s some gender bender hentai that you should check out.
1. Residence
In an old, seemingly abandoned mansion, there are a lot of treasures to be found. However, it is a cursed place, and when men enter looking for riches, they get transformed into women as punishment. An innocent-looking girl lives there, with the power to read people’s minds and then manifest their secret desires into reality.
When two men arrive, ransacking the place for loot, she has fun with them by changing one of them into a woman and manipulating the other into having sex with his friend. Then another treasure hunter shows up by the name of Bullet.
She reads his mind and changes him into the girl he has feelings for. If he wants the treasure so badly, he’s going to have to earn it. She watches with interest as the intruder uncontrollably masturbates in front of her. But she has not finished toying with him just yet.
Residence, among other hentai, is where the story is the sex; moreso, the sex scenes represent changes within the characters themselves and positions, and so on.
2. Okusama wa Michael
Mika Amano, a newly married woman, discovers an alien who crashed on earth. This alien named Furuu can take the shape of any article of clothing. Her husband, Dr. Shinichi Amano, works at a small clinic and discovers an interesting side effect of a new experimental drug.
When it comes to hentai, gender bender hentai always has interesting plots to explain to us how and why the character swaps their gender, and this one is no different. Okusama wa Michael gives us an interesting story while also not skimping out on the sex scenes, which is essentially the most important part of hentai.
The alien also adds a hint of humor to the story. The animation looks a little outdated for when this anime was released, but it’s well done regardless. Overall, this is a pretty good watch if you want some interesting plot in your hentai and, of course, if you’re a fan of this genre.
3. TSF Monogatari
Takumi Musashino was once an ordinary high school boy, but that changed when his body transformed into that of an alluring high school girl thanks to an experimental gene therapy treatment he received after being diagnosed with a terminal illness.
She astonishes her classmates with her new body, receiving mixed reactions from them. While girls like Anri Sogahara offer her important adjustment advice, her male peers begin to see her as an object of their desires. Although Takumi is both confused and nervous about her new being and appearance, she will soon discover the wonderful pleasures of being a young adolescent woman.
Her friends all want a piece of her: groping her breasts, sliding their hands up her skirt, and flat-out asking if they can use her for practice. Despite feeling uncomfortable thanks to all of this unwanted attention, her sensitive body can’t help but react with pleasure at each touch.
Switching genders all of a sudden can’t be easy, but ending up being the object of everyone’s desires does make it a little harder.
4. Kuro Gal ni Natta kara Shinyuu to Shitemita
Shion and Rui are the dream team when it comes to hitting on women. Tonight was going to be another night of hooking up with girls for Shion, but he ended up taking a strange drug. When he woke up, he’d turned into a girl?! Rui came looking for Shion but didn’t recognize him and started hitting on him.
This hentai truly is one of a kind. The relationship between Shion and Rui is actually surprisingly cute, and you get drawn into their romance in addition to all the smut. And the smut itself is pretty dang good. Nothing outrageous but the scenarios and dynamics are quite hot.
Plus, the fact that it has decent yaoi scenes already makes this a rarity. Good yaoi is practically non-existent in animated hentai. So if that’s what you’re looking for, it will not disappoint! This hentai is truly a gender bender hentai done right. It has everything you would expect from it and more. This is definitely hentai that should go straight into your watch lists; it’s one you can’t miss.
5. Kämpfer
It may be the stuff of some guys’ fantasies to waking up transformed into a beautiful girl, but when the abruptly effeminized Natsuru is told by a stuffed tiger that he’s now a Kampfer, a mystical fighter who must fight other Kampfers in female form, his life becomes a living nightmare!
Putting aside the obvious “plumbing” concerns, Natsuru’s best childhood friend turns out to be on the opposite end of the spectrum, with her having a crush on his new female body. Is it not complicated enough? Natsuru’s school has distinct sections for boys and girls; thus, he and his sister are now enrolled in the same class. He’s rumored to be dating himself, according to the gossip mill.
Other Kampfers at school want to take her out, but he’s not sure which ones mean “on a date” or “permanently.” Did we mention that some Kampfers are armed with swords and guns? Hormones, fists, and other body parts will fly as the daring; new gender-bender defender must become a contender or die!
Kampfer features a diverse cast of characters who are all lovable in some way, and the anime also has a very over-the-top sense of humor.
6. Tamashii Insert
Naoto Takahashi’s father remarried six months ago, and he still hasn’t adjusted to his new family members: Sachiko, his stepmother, and Yui, his new younger sister. He installs an app that allows him to take over someone else’s body one night while attempting to figure out how to make amends with his sister.
The story of smartphone app powers isn’t new, but it’s never been animated or featured as prominently or in such high quality as this show.
Because the majority of the scenarios in which the MC finds himself are unexpected or novel, having the story told in a way that lets the audience absorb and assess the information on their own rather than being told straight out is quite refreshing.
The characters are memorable, unlike in other hentai, including the MC, who is normally only a placeholder for the audience member to insert themselves in. The main character is reflected more in terms of thoughts and logic due to the circumstances of the possessions, which adds a good depth to the story.
7. Alignment You! You! The Animation
Schoolgirl Takahashi died before she could confess her feelings to the boy she liked, and now she roams the school as a ghost, unable to move on. She eventually meets a demonic spirit, Sakurako, who tells her there is a way she can be reunited with her love. So she murders the entire class!
Most of the class moves onto the afterlife, but of the students that remain, Ooshiro is trapped there because there’s a girl still living that he likes. Instead of resorting to murder this time, though, Sakurako offers to resurrect Ooshiro on a good-hearted whim.
Unfortunately, she decides to bring him back to life as a girl instead and attaches his former penis to herself! She demands that he uses his new female body to pleasure his own cock. After all, she did bring him back to life!
This hentai has a long list of fetishes that may or may not turn people on, so there’s something for everyone in this title. It features over-the-top comedy and a plot that is easier to follow than other hentai anime of this genre.
8. Ishuzoku Reviewers
Countless diverse races, from perky fairies to oozing slimes, inhabit the world. Naturally, such a melting pot of creatures has a broad and alluring variety of brothels. With so many options to choose from, it is hard to decide with which succu-girl to have a meaningful, interpersonal experience.
Fortunately, a tight group of brave warriors has come together to enlighten the public. These perverted adventurers take it upon themselves to assess the appeal of all types of succu-girls through hands-on research. Whether it be the scorchingly hot salamanders or the udderly hu-moo-ngous cow-girls, the Yoruno Gloss reviewers leave no species behind.
Ishuzoku Reviewers seeks to answer one of the most pressing questions there is: which species is the sexiest?
The characters are not at all special, but they are as funny as hell. Just imagine yourself with your buddies reviewing brothels. What will the events be like, the situations, and the reactions? You will laugh and get excited like never before.
9. Maken-Ki!
Takeru Ooyama has started at Tenbi Academy, a co-ed private prep school that was previously all-girls. Haruko Amaya, his childhood friend, shows him around the school, and he hopes to have a life full of ogling pretty girls.
However, he discovers that the school is for students who wield crafted weapons known as Makens and possess magical and spiritual energies known as Elements. The students compete in school-sponsored combat matches to demonstrate their abilities.
While Takeru’s own ability and Maken aren’t immediately apparent, he soon finds himself surrounded by women, including Inaho Kushiya, an attractive girl who claims to be his fiancée, and Kodama Himegami, a popular blonde who claims to want to kill him.
He joins the Security Committee, which is part of the Magical Security Organization, also known as Maken-ki, which is the student council’s Leadership Committee.
This anime is truly great. It’s great for those people out there who just happen to have a passion or adore ecchi. If that’s the case, this anime’s for you.
10. Nikutai Ten’i
Kenichi and a few of his classmates stayed after school to examine a new archaeological find, a strange-looking mirror. The entire building is suddenly transported to another dimension, and a magical field surrounds it to keep them from escaping. In addition, their minds have been redirected to the bodies of other people.
Only when their sexual emotions are high are they able to switch bodies. Kenichi must figure out a way to restore normalcy before the dimension collapses.
The story is intriguing because it is not one of your typical tentacle/SM hentais. In terms of these characters becoming accustomed to different bodies at different times, the hentai gets a lot right. However, you’ll find yourself wishing that this two-episode OVA was a little longer, as it leaves some unfinished business.
And some of the characters seemed unnecessary, as they could have followed 3-4 characters instead of the 7-8 they threw together.
If you’re looking for some realistic hentai, a decent side story about true love, and some nice artwork, you should definitely check out this title.
