Midori (1992)

aka: Shôjo tsubaki: Chika gentô gekiga

WTF, Japan? Before you decide to watch Midori I suggest you Google Suehiro Maruo, in particular his Ero Guro Nansensu paintings with safe search turned OFF. That’s what you’re going to get.
The film chronicles a young girl’s descent into a dark and disturbing world of slavery, forced eroticism, sexual depravity and more, at the hands of a selfish collective of freaks.
The colourful, almost childish animation style is at odds with the very adult nature of events. The narrative is messy but the horror of the imagery and the actions of the characters will stay with you afterwards.

I've seen real life JAV eyeball lickings so this definitely sounds intriguing.
