Kyou kara Ore wa!!

This piece of pure, exciting and truly not-so-unique, yet good take on delinquent comedy truly deserves 10/10.


Story : 7/10

This anime didn't have best of story, but it delivers a better taking on delinquency of high school boys with two new transfer student. Both of them met day before school debut with an aim to become full delinquent. And after that by many comedic scenes, they both become very well know in there area.

As a result everyday comes with new challenges. They met friends and foe, with love angels and entertain us with comedy and friendship. Though if you take Mitsuhashi as a friend, you are ... done. Not believing me, just ask Imai from Beni High.


Art : 8/10

Since this show is a '90s, art aren't like todays, but perfectly fits for enjoyment. This show have one thing that every comedy anime must have - comedic expressions. And when I say expressions belive me. From episode 1 to 10, you will be entertained with good art and funny faces.


Characters : 10/10

If I had more than 10 fav characters option in MAL free account, Mitsuhashi would have been one of them. He is fun. He plays dirty - when I say dirty it's really dirty. But it's all for the win. He is one hell of a idiot with tsundre type caring heart.

Then come Itou to complement Mitsuhashi. Itou is kinda pure hearted delinquent who love to fight fair. He has a girl to make Mitsuhashi jealous when our idiot didn't even understand he also (nearly) has one. Itou is a good character to brought Mitsuhashi full throttle. This duo cannot be complete without anyone's absence.

And then comes Beni high boss Imai and his sidekick Tanigawa. Imai always chase Mitsuhashi and bring lots of funny situations where he always dance under Mitsuhashi's thumb.

There are other good characters also. But I have to say if Mitsuhashi's heroine Riko had more role to play, then it would have been very satisfying.

Enjoyment : 10/10

I always want good things to stay forever. When I was in ep 9 and remember that it will finish in ep 10, I was disheartened. You can understand how great an comedy centric anime it is, when you just want to just wish to watch it forever.

Overall : 10/10

It is a great anime which deserves 10/10. Period.

If you're looking for a gritty and realistic look into the life of a high school delinquent in Japan then you are in the wrong place. In fact, our two main characters aren't even true delinquents. However, that doesn't stop them from gaining the reputation as the most badass duo to walk the earth as they trample over their competition with unwavering confidence, brute strength, cunning and a helluva lot help from luck and the blunders of Katsutoshi Imai. Despite its rather simple nature, Kyou kara Ore wa is an exceptional anime.

Kyou kara Ore wa is about two high schoolers who, upon moving to a ... new school decide to reinvent themselves as delinquents. To make matters more interesting, they both figure out that the other is faking from the start and stumble their way into a confrontation with their high school's delinquent gang. This is only the first of many encounters the two face as their reputation and "bad boy" personas spiral out of control. The show is primarily an episodic format, but there are often little bits of subplot that carry across the episodes. Its episodes are also longer than traditional anime episodes, likely due to it being an OVA. Although far from realistic, the story is captivating, thrilling and filled with humor. The format and pacing are also extremely well done. There are enough episodic plot points in each episode to keep things fresh and also enough overarching plot to keep you coming back episode after episode. The show contains mini story arcs where the main duo face of with new opponents and every one of these arcs is thoroughly entertaining.

This show was made in the 90's where animation technology wasn't as developed and shows were animated essentially by hand. This can result in some pretty ugly looking shows if down poorly but when a studio goes all out, the result is animation that I personally far prefer to the comparably lifeless anime being produced in mass today. Considering this shows ten episodes were slowly released over a period of 5 years, uuuhh ya I think we can say they took the time to do it right. Although not flawless the animation in this show is top notch. There are choppy bits here and there but overall the studio did a fantastic job.

The sound didn't really leave much of an impact on me. I hardly noticed the score the voice acting was pretty yelly most of the time, but decent overall and the sound effects seemed pretty mediocre. In particular the sounds of the characters punches were quite cartoony, but for me personally, it only added to the character of the show.

I love the characters in this show. In the 90's dere tropes weren't really a thing yet. I'm not saying we've got some of the most original characters ever but they do seem a lot less tired out then say, the extreme tsundere with pink twin tales. The ways in which the different personalities and quirks of the various characters slam into each other is extremely well done and adds a lot to the narrative and subplot. I could go on about the specific characters but I think it'd just be better for you to go and experience them for yourself.

It's hard not to enjoy such a well-crafted show. It has action, drama and a sprinkle of romance. I'd be tempted to rate it higher, but like I said earlier it a fairly basic show. It does a great job in every category but at the same time, I feel it falls a bit short of what could be called a "masterpiece" due to its lack of ambition. Despite the fact, that it didn't survive long enough to truly develop, and give us more time with the characters, Kyou kara Ore wa is an incredible anime that deserves more attention then it gets.

I enjoyed this anime and don't regret watching it, but am unsure if I'll remember a lot of it in a few months as it's largely carried by it's main protagonist, Mitsuhashi. Mitsuhashi is, usually, a jerk with a heart of gold, and a somewhat hyperactive one at that,. This character archetype can be rather difficult to pull off well as you a bit too often these types of characters' jerkass antics cease to be entertaining and start to become grating, but luckily Mitsuhashi doesn't fall into that. His antics, and the comedy style of the series as a whole, do start to become rather ... predictable but it's still entertaining enough. I never felt bored watching it.

His supporting cast, however, is rather bland by comparison. His best friendemy and "secondary protagonist," Itou, is cool and serves his role as the straightman to Mitsuhashi's antics well, but I didn't feel he did much of interest. The comic relief duo Imai and Tanigawa aren't too bad but Imai's antics became very predictable by the end and I also found Imai's tough idiot schtick slightly grating towards the end. The 2 female leads, Riko and Kyoko aren't bad either, but the former is a pretty standard action girl and the other is a pretty standard moral compass of sorts for Itou. This may have been intentional, as a more grounded supporting cast is likely justified so they can play of Mitsuhashi, but they all sadly feel a bit too firmly in the background.

The show has a rotating cast of antagonists throughout the series, most of which aren't too memorable. Not helping this is most of them are one-offs, so they simply don't have much a chance to make a lasting impression. I do feel one antagonist, Sagara, is an exception to this, and he is also the only one to reappear in any form beyond a cameo after his character arc. He's a pretty solid foil to Mitsuhashi, just as dirty and batshit insane but seemingly lacking the same humanity, I really would have liked to see more of him.

The story is pretty simple but told well enough. I do wish there had been more in the way of actual arcs but the largely one-off format is fine. The ending is very unfulfilling though, I suspect due to the manga it was adapting not being completed at the time the OVA ended.

On a technical level, the animation and music are pretty good by 90s standards and hasn't aged poorly or anything. The fighting scenes, in particular, still look good. The soundtrack doesn't have any tracks that really stood out to me aside from the ear worm of an ED theme that it has, which I sadly can't seem to find anywhere, but it was used well and the songs were never bad or out of place.

Overall, I'd say this is a series to watch if you have time to do so. It's nothing groundbreaking by any means but it'll likely hold your attention while you watch it and, of course, you may end up enjoying it more than I did.
