Omamori Himari

If your that person that can't stand that pathetic weak main character or gets annoyed by bouncing breasts, I definitely suggest you cross this anime from your list right now. However besides that, Omamori Himari does live up to its harem and ecchi genre. Before I continue any further, just remember this is a review and not an synopsis. I have read many reviews that just gives out way too many spoilers yet a lot of people label it as helpful.

Story 7/10
The whole demon thing didn't capture me from the start. Truth be told, when I started watching episode one I didn't expect much and I almost dropped it. After finishing the series though, I told myself,"Hey! that wasn't half bad at all!" There are many ecchi harem anime that just gives an entire new meaning to 'crap', but this one was quite enjoyable.

Art 8/10
As with many other ecchi series, the art almost never pose to be a problem. With that said, you can surely enjoy the artwork of Omamori Himari.

Sound 7/10
The music was not outstanding but not bad either. Wasn't something that truly touched me or anything. However the music that plays during the climax of the story are pretty good.

Character 7/10
As with many others, almost all the cast of characters were female. But being a guy, hey I'm not complaining.

Enjoyment 8/10
If you are against ecchi harem anime, please do not flame it. Just keep it to yourself or maybe try reading the genres of each anime before you watch it. But if you are into those stuff, you could find this anime to be quite enjoyable.

Overall this anime deserves an 7/10. Unlike many other ecchi anime, the producers of Omamori Himari seemed to actually have put in effort to the storyline read more

This is stereotypical harem/ecchi anime with a bunch of cliché characters and an ending that everyone else saw million of times. That pretty much sums it up.
-Story (3/10)-
Long ago there were demons (called Ayakashi) that killed humans. Some Ayakashi weren’t evil. Himari is one of them. That Ayakashi appears on 16th birthday of our main protagonist, Yuto. She claims that she is bound by oath to protect him from the evil Ayakashi.
Sounds interesting, ka? I don't think so. The story itself is typical good versus evil with magical girls. The whole concept of good and evil ayakshi is more of a subplot for most of the series though, only playing an important role in the last 3 episodes. The other part of the story is basically Yuto building a "relationship" with Himari and being introduced to a countless amount of girls with big breasts. All these girls commonly try to seduce Yuto so it goes like this. A-b-s-o-l-u-t-e-l-y NOTHING SPECIAL and memorable.
-Animation (4/10)-
The animation itself isn't bad, but nothing made me go "wow" and nothing really impressed me. It isn’t bad, but I gave it a 4 because look at genres of this anime action and others. But where the hell are the action scenes in this anime? It’s really awfull.
-Sound (5/10)-
Nothing to talk about. The soundtrack was ok.
-Characters (1/10)-
Wow.I don’t even know what to say about characters. Really boring and dull. All characters are cliché of typical ecchi anime. There are quite many characters, but only a few are main. The only character who was ok is Himari.
-Overall (4/10)-
Summary:
+ Good humor.
+ Entertaining moments, mostly in the beginning and middle.
- Typical
- Too many (bad) characters
- Cheap looking action scenes.
- Predictable ending
If you are a hardcore ecchi fan you will like. (I am echi fan, I adore anime like Sora no otoshimono and Isekai no Seikishi Monogatari).But Omamori Himari was a real disappointment. read more
