SynopsisHis skill with a sword is magnificent but his social skills still need a lot of work!
After many long years perfecting the art of fighting, 17-year-old Yoichi Karasuma is sent down from the remote mountains where he has been raised thinking that he's going to study some new martial arts techniques... but what he's really going to learn about are some slightly more practical things, like electrical appliances, modern clothing and, most especially, how NOT to make girls want to kill you!
Unfortunately, that last lesson is one Yoichi may not survive, as his new dojo is infested with the infernal creatures in the form of the Ikaruga sisters, and they don't really seem to understand how "proper" girls are "supposed" to behave! Will Yoichi's bushido blade be struck down by the fearsome charms of Ibuki, Ayame, Chihaya, and Kagome? Or will the equally lethal girls from the rival Tsubame school be his undoing?

Before watching this anime I thought to myself, "This is probably one of those harems ecchi shows where a lot of girls fall for the same guy." Well it was almost that.
Instead of a lot of girls there was only two, Ibuki Ikaruga and Ayame Ikaruga. They fall in love with Yoichi Karasuma. But unlike many harems this anime has a credible storyline. Unknowingly Ibuki has a fiance. After many years he has finally come to wed his belowed. That's basically the jist of it. Yoichi and the girls try to overcome obstacles and challenges that are thrown at them.
AIC is known for creating some of the best animation in the anime world and they don't disappoint with Asu no Yoichi. Color, character design and background are all animated really well. One of the bright spots in this anime is "Washizu visions" and "Tsubasa visions." These are "visions" the respective character has funny visions of what he or she believes will happen.
Every character plays a part in Asu no Yoichi. There isn't a lot of character development but interaction between each character is huge. They all have a special moment with each other. Secondary characters such as Washizu also play a big part in the anime. They all have a big part during the last few episodes.
There are many golden comedy moments in this anime. They all contribute to the enjoyment level of this anime. Asu no Yoichi is enjoyable and fun to watch. On the other hand it doesn't have many epic moments that will make you remember this anime. If you have the time this you should check this anime out.

The protagonist of the series is Karasuma Yoichi, a boy of 17 years who lived their whole lives in the mountains with his father to improve his technique for the sword. One day, Yoichi decided to go to town after his father said it was not possible to get stronger in this condition. By stepping on the town, Yoichi meets a girl of Ikaruga dojo and is received as a guest at the dojo, along with four living sisters Ikaruga.
History 8/10
A simple story made better .. Nothing unusual, a samurai who went to town for the first time and gets into a jam right away, but shows its good side right away
Art 8/10
The art ranges where the anime goes the chapters ... the city with its buildings and malls and the mountain where he has trained well done graphics, there is weak
Sound 8/10
The music for the opening and closing of the anime are well made demonstrating what is series, and music background also shows clearly what is happening without sinning in any way
Character 8/10
Well done characters each with their own way ... the main one shows the naivete of someone who does not know the city and the Sisters of the dojo also show his feminine side and their internal disputes in 'love'
Enjoyment 9/10
comedy rose well to note anime with funny scenes and helping ECHI series and its theme itself ... do not let us down and pulls a good laugh
Overall 7/10
With graphics, sound, history and good fun in the series was level at all pleasant to watch mainly for the sisters and by way of the samurai
only missed a few fights in the best level since it's an anime samurai

Lots of fun, lots of accidents, lots of punches, lots of love. Besides Keintaro is a normal Student, Yoichi is a Samurai.
I think you'll find the characters and situation to be VERY similar, so unless you have some sort of pathological fear of something in one anime or the other, you should enjoy both.
Both have harem, both have the same kind of ecchi situations and both Yoichi and Keitaro sometimes "fly" after kick by girl ;P
Has a very Love Hinarish feel to it.
Both of these series involve a dense, perverted, and slow (typical harem lead) male that goes to live in a place full of girls. In both series, all of the girls start to like the male lead for various reasons but can't bring themselves to admit their feelings.... very typical harms on both accounts.
Both feature a male who is more or less forced into a situation where he is living with a number of very different girls.
The characters in both have virtually the same personality types, as both series's feature:
- A level headed, fairly pleasant male who's your typical tsundere victum
- A bossy, violent 'head of the household', obvious love interest girl
- A grumpy girl who's involved in a love triangle with the above
- A mischevious, creative girl (one in 'Yoichi', two in 'Hina')
- A 'cute' little moe girl (these two are virtually idenitical)
Ecchi related misunderstandings and fanserivce are of the plenty in, aswell as girl on boy violence.

Both anime have harem, cute girls, fights, kantanas and kendo :D
If by some stroke of fate you actually liked Asu no Yoichi, specifically the comedic portions, then you'll also enjoy Bamboo Blade.
Both very funny and have to do somewhat with samurai. Asu no Yoichi is more focused on a boy surrounded by girls rather than focused on girls.
Deals with Samurai and martial arts related topics, along with a host of cute girls.
