----------------------------------------
Well the story starts off with uber fanservice. Cant go less than 2 seconds without a panty shot when a girl is in the scene. Thats fine with me. But the silly part so far is how people are just fighting for no reason. Hakufu is pretty hot and stupid ^_^ good typical combo.

"Polish your abilities and kill your opponents" What kind of school is this? Whats the point of having a school where your student body count keeps getting lower if people die?

...Im not liking Koukin though he seems like the retarded "i dont want anyone to fight" kind of person. I dont know why japan is so facinated with those types of boys. At least the comedy is pretty fun, and it looks fun to watch so far ^_^


And the fanservice helps out alot. I love how the camera angle is constantly slightly below waist level. The outcome of the whole show is painfully obvious but we'll have to see how it gets there.

"What happens when we die?" I know that the ones who love us will miss us.

Even Strike Witches didn't go overboard and is fun.
And is one of my most favorite shows ever.

But this was just bland and unentertaining.
Perhaps it's not going overboard, perhaps it's just not brought together right.

In any case, this is just a series that I'm not interested in nor impressed by.
It'll just be another show I'll be finishing just to say I've finished it.

Now I'm not to say that taste is something objective, but for me, I like something in just about every anime genre in my tastes, and this show hasn't done something right in any genre. The ecchi makes me cringe, the action makes me laugh, and the comedy that results from anything isn't that funny.

Old avatar and sig retired for now.

The art is a bit of old school, but the fighting scenes cover it up a little,

I really don't know about this one. The fanservice is nice and the fights are ok, but it seems really corny.

How many panty shots?

Mangaka:Yes

I really enjoyed this first episode. The main girl is the funny airhead, the premise is basic yet intriguing, it has a nice art style and the atmosphere is also pretty good. Very charming.

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron

Back into the golden era of fan service. I’m getting all worked up. She’s ditzy, curvy and a little OP compared to the other fighters.

Great start to an anime! I love the oldies!!!
