Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan

Sakura Kusakabe, a mere junior high student, has committed a horrible crime. Or, rather, he will commit a crime—20 years into the future. The crime in question? He will prevent all women from developing past the age of 12, with immortality as an unintended side effect. As a result, the angel Dokuro Mitsukai is sent from the future as an assassin, armed with with a magical spiked bat named Excalibolg. However, rather than kill him, Dokuro wants to take a different approach. She resolves to be a constant nuisance to Sakura, in an attempt to prevent him from focusing on anything long enough to create his criminal technology.

With Dokuro going against orders, the angel Sabato is sent out to complete Dokuro's mission. Between the impulsive Dokuro—who often murders Sakura with her bat before reviving him with the magic words "Pipiru piru piru pipiru pi"—and the electric baton-wielding Sabato, Sakura's life will never be peaceful again.

I watched it with my friends in Lulea, who I visited last week. Honestly it's the goofiest thing ever and really chaotic ,but in a fun way. As long as one watches it with friends,it's good. I do not think I would ever watch this, if it weren't for them.
There is basically no story,it's just 6 10 minute episodes of chaos, characters can be fun, Sabato is the goat. It really surprised me how well is the production of such a show the animation was really good for some reason and the artstyle is the typical 2000s one.
Watch this as long as you wanna ... if u wanna see some random shit with friends, that's the guaranteed way to enjoy this show.

Mixed Feelings

what a fascinating product of the human mind.

i should probably preface this by saying i'm very much the kind of person who loves "bad" media. i'm also the kind of person who sees an insane plot summary and has to check it out, which is exactly how i ended up here. if either of these describe you, you'll probably have a good time, but if you don't care for immature absurdist humor like i do then you're better off finding something else to watch.


ANIMATION: 6/10

the animation is generally fine, but it's got some pretty glaring issues sometimes. the first episode is ... especially inconsistent, with some shots being very well animated while others felt like watching an old flash animation or something. it becomes a LOT more consistent after this (+ they obviously got more budget to begin with) but it's still pretty amusing.
with that said, the inconsistency elevated the experience, at least for me. they really knew where to put their budget vs where to cheap out for the funniest effect, and i can honestly respect it. this is especially true of the first episode, but it still applies throughout.


STORY: 7/10?

most of the time, the plot is more of a tool for the comedy than anything. if you took the jokes out, you wouldn't be left with much of a story at all, so there's really not much to critique here. but the more serious parts are still done well enough for a series like this, and the lack of real plot doesn't necessarily drag it down. the characters are also enjoyable, even if they sometimes feel one-dimensional, but i can forgive it since this is a 4-episode comedy series.


VOICE (DUB): 7.5/10

the dub isn't that great, but it's at least not-great in an enjoyable way. it's generally standard 2010 dub quality, but i think that works in this case. the dialogue is paced well, the voices match the characters, and sakura in particular had a wonderful VA; his line delivery felt believable in his circumstances while still being incredibly funny. (he's the main reason this part isn't a regular 7 lol)
as for translation, there isn't much i can say, but i at least didn't notice any particularly odd phrasing. i'll probably rewatch with subs later and update this accordingly.


HUMOR / ENJOYMENT: 8/10, YMMV

a large part of the humor revolves around sakura being repeatedly bludgeoned, just as the title suggests. he's decapitated, he's torn in half, he's completely eviscerated in every way a big spiky angelic club can eviscerate you. and he really doesn't deserve any of it, but that gap is exactly why it's meant to be funny. some of the humor also revolves around (fairly tame) fanservice, which i didn't mind, but some might find it uncomfortable since the characters are all underage.
personally, i enjoyed the comedy here, but i'm also a fan of...overreaction humor? could you call it that? the fanservice humor was hit or miss, but the misses didn't detract from my enjoyment either. a lot of the actual jokes were also quite funny, but again, your mileage may vary.

Funny

This doesn't need to be a lengthy review, this anime is bad. Was almost average because of how funny it was to begin with, no real plot just fun nonsense. That however, may be its fault. Its running gag (Sakura being killed by the bludgeoning bat and brought back to life) becomes stale very quickly and when characters aren't funny they're just being annoying. Really felt like it was dragging on towards the end, that and the OVA decided to DOUBLE DOWN on a worry I kept in the back of my mind starting this, that being its loli aspect. Every character could've been aged ... up and put in a high-school setting (at the very least). 4/10
