Synopsis

In response to the worsening crime rate, Japan creates Tokyo Butei High, an elite academy where "Butei" or armed detectives hone their deadly skills in hopes of becoming mercenary-like agents of justice. One particular Butei is Kinji Tooyama, an anti-social and curt sophomore dropout who was once a student of the combat-centric Assault Division. Kinji now lives a life of leisure studying logistics in order to cover up his powerful but embarrassing special ability. However, his peaceful days soon come to an end when he becomes the target of the infamous "Butei Killer," and runs into an emotional hurricane and outspoken prodigy of the highest rank, Aria Holmes Kanzaki, who saves Kinji's life and demands that he become her partner after seeing what he is truly capable of.

I don't know why many people are complaining about the AA version. I see people crying a lot about this only because it's not a sequel of the first anime.
Why would you want a sequel of the first version of this? I see people saying this is kinda 'cringe' because they're lesbians (i don't see anything wrong with it, but idk, just otakus averages being that) and ironically the first version was even more 'cringe'.

An Aria who gets shy about childish things, having a virgin protagonist and a basic trama that is even less interesting and more predectible than AA.... that's what is the first ...

Mixed Feelings
Hidan no Aria failed to live up to its potential. The series struggled to find the right balance between its ecchi/fanservice elements and the more serious aspects of its story.

On the positive side, the action sequences were generally well-animated and enjoyable to watch. The varied array of weaponry and fighting styles employed by the characters added some variety to the combat scenes. However, these exciting moments were often undercut by the show's overreliance on gratuitous fanservice and sexual humor that felt tonally jarring and out of place.

The characterization was also hit-or-miss. While some characters like Kinji had interesting backstories and arcs, many of the supporting ...

"Listen up, I have decided you should become my slave"
---- Aria

Yeah if that isn't all the warning you need not to watch this show I don't know what more I can say to help you make the decision.

Aria Kanzaki maybe the most ridiculous and ulikable character to ever grace broadcast television, and I include Eichman and Hitler in the running. She is incredibly poorly written horribly inconsistent and downright annoying. Quite literally whenever she opens her mouth she kills the show and seeing as she is the name character and one of the two primary main characters that's a real problem.

Kinchi Toyhama ...
