Does anyone recall the "Mr. Benn" cartoons? Well this is very reminiscent of them as a bowler-hatted gent leaves home on a rainy morning for his commute into town. Like ants at an ant hill, they stream about anonymously into their offices. Once "Henry" gets to his desk, though, his mind turns to sex. He fantasises about women indulging his penchant for chasing them through fields of daisies and/or Roman orgies or maybe even an afternoon with his own version of "Miss Whiplash". The same routine gets him back home after a hard day but he is now way too knackered to actually take part in any shenanigans with his sultry-sounding "beloved"! There's a fair chunk of photographic (female) nudity in here as well as quite a bit of animated naughtiness and the narration uses some quite understated and erudite language to describe the peccadilloes his very ordinariness suggests he ought not to have. It's a simple hand drawn affair that owes much to the jocular nature of the subject matter and is worth five minutes.

The adult animation subgenre is aimed at mature audiences, typically consisting of content that explores complex themes, mature storytelling, and may include explicit language, violence, sexual content, or other adult-oriented elements. Unlike traditional animation that is often associated with family-friendly or children's content, adult animation caters to grown-up viewers who appreciate more sophisticated and often darker narratives.

The raunchy comedy subgenre uses explicit, often crude and vulgar, humor to create laughter. Raunchy comedies push the boundaries of traditional comedic norms by incorporating explicit language, sexual content, and taboo subjects for comedic effect.
