Issho ni Training Ofuro: Bathtime with Hinako & Hiyoko

This is the best goddamn thing ever made. Here's why.

- The character development in this series is second to none. When we first met Hinako, she did not love us. Now she does - it takes a lot of work to reach this level of affection, much like any good dating sim. Except in this one you can just sit-back and watch your affection points rise.

- Excellent plot twists - especially the introduction of a new training technique "stretching the arms" and the new character Hiyoko. By the end of the series I was nearly in tears; the drama this new love triangle brings about is heart-wrenching indeed.

- Ground-breaking advice and tactics for exercising - with such tips as "don't forget breathing" and "chest stretching: has bust enhancing effects" (MAKE SURE TO DO THOSE GODDAMN CHEST STRETCHES YOU LAZY FUCK).

- The voice acting is superb. I'm being especially serious here. If you read Fate/Stay Night you probably cried like a bitch during a certain scene involving Hinako's voice actor. You know the scene. If you don't, I'll tell you right now Kadowaki Mai's voice is kawaii as shit and she needs to be in more goddamn anime. Don't even know who voices Hiyoko but neither of us care anyway. GIVE ILLYASVIEL SOME MORE ROLES. Only total pansies get tired of Hinako talking and talking and talking and never stopping.

- Aside from her excellent character development, Hinako is still fucking adorable. Don't let anyone else tell you otherwise. I mean just look at her. Jesus Christ.

- Art and animation is beyond incredible. Fluid physics, especially during the more dramatic scenes. Now that I reflect back, I must say this is truly art as it should be. If you dislike the physics here you're a pansy.

- You might notice I gave character a 9. That's because Hiyoko is a total SLUT. Disregard her completely.

Overall this is a pcool anime I'd recommend watching it with friends/family/gf whoever since it has great lessons, advice, and is just overall a very deep and well-thought out OVA. read more
