This conclude my review of this ... masterpiece sayonara

Let me start this off by saying I am not a fan of harem genre animes in general. They're often cliche, boring, and lack interesting romance. But there's plenty of harem animes I enjoy, and even some I love. Ichigo 100 was not one of them.

Story: 3/10
This is the MOST SORRY EXCUSE OF A STORY I HAVE EVER SEEN!!!! Sao did it better. No joke. At least it had a story. Idk what Ichigo 100 did. Romance?
Think again kind sir, cuz it most certainly was not.
So we get our typical harem protagonist and the typical girls that are crazy for him. Blah blah blah, ... the usual. But the story never GOES anywhere. Just when he thinks he finally picked a girl he likes he suddenly sees one of the other girls and his feelings waver. Oh joy, my least favorite trait of the protagonist. And spoiler, it goes unresolved. And he gets none of the girls. Big whoop.
Basically here is the story:
Film enthusiast is really good at getting in compromised situations involving the panties of the female characters.
If you like that, you'll enjoy. Romance? Hmm gotta look elsewhere bud.
The most romance this anime has to offer is the relationship between Manaka (protagonist) and Toujou. It is very cute, well-developed, and has a strong building history. However she is nothing more than a girl in his harem. The reason the anime even interested me enough to give it a 6, is because I thought their relationship would progress. I wanted to give that potential a chance.


Art: 8/10
for a 2005 anime especially, the art is relatively attractive. It's pretty cute and overall I have no issue with it.


Sound: 8/10
The ops and ends are catchy and I enjoyed them a lot. The soundtrack is also pretty nice. Nothing too much standout, but it was good nontheless.


Characters: 6/10
The characters were are all pretty interesting. The problem was just that they lacked development and story progression.

Manaka: He has a strong passion for film and filming that sticks with him throughout the anime. But his dumbness ruined his character. He spent the entire anime trying to choose a girl and talking to himself about who he liked. Then it seemed he was finally waking up and making a decision, only to go back to square one the next episode. This dumb pattern filled the whole anime and wasn't even resolved in the end. He's all worried about hurting people's feelings, which is nice and all, but he'll never get anywhere in life.

Toujou: she's the mysterious, shy, and timid girl who has a passion for writing and wants to make movies with Manaka. She's the blushy, runs away when stuff gets serious type and has been in love with Manaka since very early in the series.

Nishino: she is the studious, popular idol girl who falls for Manaka after a misinterpretation in middle school. She goes to a different high school and pops in on occasion. Her relationship status with Manaka is very confusing. She is a likable character, and isn't pushed around easily by Manakas annoying ways, even though she has feelings for him.

Satsuki: she's the tsundere of the series. She's energetic, playful, and athletic. She is first cold and mean towards Manaka, but eventually falls for him too in the typical tsundere way. She becomes very aggressive with trying to get her love across. For the tsundere, she isn't terrible, I just don't like them in general.


Yui: Manakas childhood friend who basically will randomly get random ecchi moments with him. She is mostly used to fill a character space and isn't very likable or plot progressive.

The other two supporting males are typical supporting male characters. They aren't awful but none of them progress the plot any which is really stupid and sucky. With the addition of more girls in his harem, the characters are technically the same beginning to end. Satsuki isn't as tsundery and Toujou is not as shy, but romantically there's no even a moresal.


Enjoyment: 5/10
I obviously did not enjoy this anime. Simply because the romance sucked and the protagonist was an idiot. It was a pain to watch and made me bang my head into the wall so many times I probably have a concussion.
If you wanna see a stupid guy look at cute girls' panties, boi I found your anime!

Overall: 6/10
Like I said. It's the perfect example of what I hate about harem anime:
-cliche
-LOW story progression
-dumb main character
-indecision that eats up the whole anime
-LACK of romance
-end of episode teases that get erased each new episode
-ecchi overload

Its terribly formulated and progressed, and mechanics-wise deserves a 3 or 4, but it DID succeed in keeping me interested so thus the higher rating. I rate based on how much an anime interests me, so even crap can get a higher score than it deserves.

Ecchi and harem fans will love this I'm sure, but as a romance fan, this one belongs in the trash.

Read the manga. Read the manga. Read the manga.
I wish to forget what I watched. Madhouse tried to cramp a 19 volumes, 167 chapter story into a 12 episode anime with extra OVA's and it's not even complete.
The story adaptation was completely butchered.
I genuinely feel sad for the writer, for her to see the horrible adaptation of her story.

On finishing the manga, I decided I wanted to see how was it adapted as an anime. The first episode was fine, then on continuing I had a hard time watching it.

Review-
Story (3/10)
Bad adaptation of such a masterpiece.
...
Art (8/10)
The only thing I was happy about was how the character designs and animation was made better than the manga.

Sound (6/10)
The opening and ending songs initially kind of were 'trash jam material" but as the story began to disappoint, I couldn't....
Also the background music was annoying and super cringy.
As for character voices, everyone sounded like their character, but I have a critic for Tsukasa's voice, it doesn't quite fit the character.

Character (6/10)
In the end the character roles are similar to source material but the voice actor choices and story butchering choices kinda ruined it.

Enjoyment (2/10)
Initially, I was looking forward to the adaptation, but now regret it.

Overall (2/10)
Just take the time and read the manga, it's worth it.
