Synopsis :
Toru is your typical college student who has to stay
with some relatives while his mother recovers from an
illness. As luck would have it, Toru gets to share a
roof (and probably more) and go to school with a lovely
young lady named Manami. Manami is pretty, sexy, but
extremely shy. Some of the girls in school are jealous
of her, and take advantage of her good nature by
bullying her. But when Manami is pushed too far, another
personality surfaces in the form of Nami. Nami is
everything that Manami is not. She's strong, feisty, and
anything but shy. As Manami and Nami continue to
co-exist in one body, it gets increasingly hard to
maintain a balance... can the two personalities
reconcile or must one be permanently lost? But Toru
likes both Manami and Nami...

Review
Amusing
and slightly humorous, Sprite is basically the story of Manami -- a
young woman with two personalities.
As Manami, she is as gentle and defenseless as a newborn baby...
which leads jealous classmates to bully her. As Nami, however, she
is about as adept as Street Fighter's Chun-li in literally kicking
the asses of her antagonists. A flabbergasted Toru witnesses the
whole transformation, and soon Manami's personality problem becomes
his problem as well. To further complicate things, Toru develops a
liking for both Manami and Nami.
Amidst everything that unfolds, a question lurks in the back of my
mind. Are Toru and Manami related? After all, Toru is staying with
relatives... and Manami happens to be the daughter in the household.
But having seen Urara's greater-than-cousin love for Touma in
"Sakura Diaries" and Akira's romantic obsession with his sister in
"Countdown Akira", the fact that Toru and Manami may be distantly
related is really no big deal. I wonder nonetheless.
Sprite's plot isn't anything extraordinary, but Nami's outstanding
characterization makes it all worthwhile. She's tough but lovable,
fierce but funny, and naughty but nice -- which is quite a tricky
combination to pull off. Any comedy that ensues is mostly thanks to
Nami, and she keeps things moving along nicely. I daresay Manami
would be better off just assimilating the Nami personality
completely, as she comes close to being totally inept without Nami.
The art and animation are pretty good. Manami is exceptionally
pretty, and the other characters are drawn quite well. Sex-wise,
there is a lot of nudity and a few sexual scenes but most of what
you'll see are breasts and silhouettes which imply certain acts.
Nothing too graphic, but I should mention that there's a significant
number of panty shots as well. Overall, Sprite is above average.
It's admittedly more fun than a lot of other Hentai titles, but it
didn't really blow me away. "Weather Report Girl" is funnier, and
"Countdown Akira" handles the psychological aspect better.
