NAZ, a studio I never expected to come back since Hamatora.
I was very surprised to hear that this got an anime, and boy did my perverted side come into light. An anime about a virgin on his journey to step into the region of adulthood.
I feel like ecchi doesn't get the love it deserves. Of course, being an ecchi series, it's understandable. It's been done a lot and might be annoying to some, which I guess makes sense.
The story is simple. Our MC was forced to confess to a gal, Yukana. Yukana with gigantic titties decides then to tease him and then eventually, Hashiba (our

To start out, I need to establish that this is a review of the anime's dub. I'll explain why later in the review. Along with that, this will also include spoilers, although I doubt they would really change your viewing experience.
To enjoy this show, one must understand it is not meant to be taken seriously. The girls have unconventionally large breasts, and the plot is not the deepest thing in the world, but it's hilarious. I found myself sending quotes from it to my friends just because I was dying from amusement at what they'd say, especially for an American. I am ... Aug 10, 2017
Hajimete no Gal - Something Different
Why do people like ecchi series? Is it because of the boobs, the girls or the story? Personally, I think it's because it's a funnier and an easier genre to appreciate, as being a reliable and a fun combination. And there's nothing wrong with the liking of some ecchi series, including Hajimete no Gal and by that, I'm another one that thinks that ecchi doesn't get the love it deserves. This story for Hajimete no Gal, as for some others series by the same genre, appears to be simple. Our main protagonist (named Junichi) is forced by his friends to confess ... Dec 22, 2019
Wow I read some of the other reviews and people just don't know what the word comedy means, or maybe just don't know how to let loose and laugh.
Taking overall and enjoyment categories first. This is a solid 9 on comedy and enjoyment. There's plenty of gags in this movie and they're all very well done. Sight gags abound, double entendres everywhere, comic overreactions, all there. The characters are comical in and of themselves. It's all there. Just plain good fun. Characters: They are all stereotypes, while you may no people like them you'll never meet anyone quite as bad as ... Sep 13, 2017
Overall i'd give this anime a 7 which for me means it was simply an Enjoyable ride. Many of the Harsh reviews are from people that came into this anime with huge misconceptions that'd it'd be extremely "Ecchi" maybe some nudity etc and or the majority that have only seen the obnoxious "Censored" version" which takes away from a shows overall quality. That being said i watched the unscensored version and this anime is far from being very ecchi and maybe only has 1-2 episodes with anything more than a standard "panty shot". This anime has 0 real nudity so don't expect that and tbh

After watching this and reading some of the reviews I thought i would add a different perspective.
The story whilst an embellishment kinda brought up some nostalgia feels for me. There was generous helpings of panty and boob shots and some of the scenes were quite lewd but nothing unsavoury. However most of all this anime was a light hearted comedy. The plot revolves around a clueless young man who, almost by accident, starts dating a girl out of his league and ends up getting his first taste of teenage romance. Including the highs, lows and general confusion that comes along with it. I feel you ... Oct 6, 2022
I am giving this a 9 out of 10 for a few reasons. As someone who normally just watches anime for the boobs I have to say this was a nice change of pace. I felt the story was a cliche as what in Anime has basically not already been done before however I was absolutely intrigued by how the love story was written. I personally believe this Anime has one of the finest love stories ever written of the entire Ecchi/harem. There were a lot of crude jokes and strong language in it so I would say don't let your kids watch it. But

I don't know what i was expecting from this short journey, but all i can say it was beyond my imagination.
Funny, Cringe but wholesome at some points and surely i can say that a lot of slice of life animes missing the 2 elements i wrote above. Those are ''Funny and Wholesome''. For real tho, producing a slice of life anime (especially with ecchi) easier than any other genre but its harder making it better than any other genre, story is weak and it should be at some point because not everybody is Jun Maeda so i expect it to be way too mediocre. At least ... Aug 30, 2017
Let's be honest here, we all came to watch this show for the same reason...
But to be COMPLETELY honest there was a positive surprise for me after the show started running properly. Hajimete no Gal is a harem-anime, but this harem is not in the standard "Every girl is completely in love with the MC just because"-category. It's enjoyable thanks to the main characters, Junichi and Yame and the progression in their relationship, which actually does differ from the mainstream harems quite a bit. Story: 8 - For a show with not much premise and which only relies on the relationships between certain characters the show ... Sep 27, 2024
This was an amazing anime, especially the English dub. Solid 10/10, the voice actors do everything they can to elevate the script and bring their own interpretation to the characters they are playing. From Alejandro Saab voicing the MC Junichi's multiple personalities and internal monologue, to Brad Smeaton doing the best Yoda, Rob Schneider, and Arnold Schwarzenegger impressions he has as the sidekick Shinpei, the English voice acting is top notch in this one. Jamie Marchi, who voices the female lead Yukana, also does a flawless "valley girl" impression and the other gyarus all have their own distinct personalities and vocal quirks.
The episodes follow a ... Oct 3, 2017
Hajimete No Gal
Saw the cover, started drooling all over myself. I mean, half-naked anime babes strewn all over pink lace satin bed sheets was definitely a crotch jerker for me. Seeing the harem tag below the show’s descripto didn’t help things either. By then I no longer needed the pump, I was ready for a night around the town, a soirée all to myself watching oppai’s galore…or so I thought. Make no mistake, there were titties (well sorta) …and sexuality played an important part in setting up the story. However, I felt like there was more to it than the obscenity that was running rampant throughout…Was I ... Sep 5, 2017
Hajimete no Gal. Oh my sweet lord, have mercy on this lost soul for I have fallen from your grace once more.
This show is practically a generic harem. I should have dropped this long time ago if not for the relationship of Yukana and Junichi. (That's the only good thing I can get here). The show just gives you a good couple at the first 10 minutes. The next thing you know, they throw all sorts of cliche character like an overly attached Loli with boobs in the size of Fuji Mountain, a Yandere tanned bitch (this is new), a tsundere (possibly Yandere), and our ...

I can’t speak for people who watched this the sub but if you did, I have four short words for you, GO WATCH THE DUB! Holy shit this show’s story and characters were all, trash but the dub is fucking hilarious. The thing about the dub is they make it to where they know the show is trash and a joke so they use the trashiness to their advantage by making jokes you can’t make in any other show than a trash show. I mean what other series make jokes about cucks and raps about pussy. The only comparison I can see with this show

I've read some of the low reviews. These mor ons' opinions show to me only one thing. Some people truly hate fun. This shows the sad pitiable wretched situation of 10 year olds on this forum. Have respect for art, give it the score it deserves.6? Don't be reprehensible drones. All time favourite 10/10. I just can't wait for sequel. Manga is also the best. BEST ANIME/MANGA FOREVER, GO WATCH SOME MORE REGULAR PEDOPHILE ANIMES LIKE NARUTO NO BORUTO and worst anime of all time ONE PIECE & BLEACH IF YOU DON'T LIKE IT. KUDOS TO THE AUTHOR. I DON'T LIKE IT THEN COMPARES IT

You think you've seen the best harem ecchi anime? You think Monster Musume was cool? You think Sekirei was good? Well think again because this, this is the epitome of ecchi anime, want to know why? No you don't, but here you go, the MC Juchini or Zuccini whatever his name might be, he is a master of words and a slick fella that has the ability of making up hentai scenes with any kind of girl that he wants in his mind. Can you imagine having a power like that? No I can't either, that's why we have Hajimete no Gal a true masterpiece

I saw the MAL score was very low and I was very surprised but when I saw the first episode I could see why. I was kinda cringing. If you can power through the first few episodes I think you'll enjoy it. The typical harem rom-com but the Main character's male friends definitely made it very enjoyable for me. I didn't care for the others too much. The music was very good and there was one scene where there was some edm/dubsteb which was appropriate for the scene along with the typical anime piano/orchestral music. To be honest, the ecchi and fantasy scenes somewhat take

Yay, finished it! Now i should definietly write a review!
Story 7, It was good, it's about a virgin boy who wants to lose it. So she asks a gal to go out, just for sexual things. But then, h falls in love with her. Story is basic and likeable Art 9, The girls's art were outstanding, the places, the ecchi scenes... I don't give it 10 out of 10 because the boys's desigment wasn't great as the girls. But maybe it had to be like that because they are crazy, uncool, virgin, introvert kind of characters, i dunno they could be better. Sound 9, Very good, ... May 3, 2018
I was completely blown away by this series. I will wholeheartedly admit that I was drawn in by the sweet, sweet oppai, and as such, I wasn't expecting anything aside from glorious eye candy. Wow, was I foolish.
I was expecting a shallow show with even shallower characters purely designed for nothing more than sex appeal (not every show is a masterpiece, nor even tries to be). I made judgements about it before I ever watched it, and this is actually a recurring theme throughout Hajimete no Gal. If you can sit through the objectively poor first episode, it'll pay off in spades. The cast is full ... Sep 14, 2017
You know how you think some anime won't be of any interest to you and just think why you are even watching this but then you get used to it and actually enjoy watching it , well that's hajimete no gal for you .
It starts off as a typical harem making you lower your expectations but then you realize that this isn't actually a harem and that's when it gets interesting. With a cute kind of animation which you get used to by time ( at first I thought it was really lacking but after some time it came to be really cute ) it ... |
