Synopsis

Based on the manga series by Hiromitsu Takeda, this romantic comedy is about Takeru Ohyama, a typical perverted teenage boy. His new school doesn't require entrance exams, and it just turned co-ed! Unfortunately, his dreams of a happy high school life are dashed when he finds out the school is much more than it seems. All of the students wield a special item—a Maken—to unleash their magical abilities in duels! Can Takeru find a Maken that works for him? Even while trying to fit in at a new school and dealing with all kinds of girl problems?

so good so good, almost enough tits for me personally. I had exciting expirience watchin it with my bestie while feelin myself. It made me feel so dirty it made me feel so naked. I highly recommend this 4 evrybody who likes less words and more actions, other recommendation is to NOT watch it alone.

• story is absolutely unique and totally unpredictable, i enjoyed it anyway bcs i like this genre/set-up
• the artstyle perfectly fits for the story

• the characters react to situations and events in a realistic way
• think others ...

Mixed Feelings
Watched this show with my friend and it had us dying laughing the whole way through.

The MC is sorta lame but is kinda intresting near the end. Story wise it has potential but it never really gets deep. Whole thing is just comedy and your usual fanservice.

Art style is basic, power system is basic but there is potential. This show has a ton of potential to be super deep and well thought out but I don't think they were really going for that. Animation was suprisingly good alot of the time lol, for a harem.

Recommendation: Not even worth it for the fanservice.

Maken-ki is deeply experimental at its core. The experiment being performed is whether an anime that consists entirely of the most well-worn harem cliches in the industry can somehow be far more loathsome than the sum of its parts, and in that way, and only that way, Maken-ki is a success.

This is a show without a single redeeming quality. The worst part, as it so often is with these kinds of shows, is the main character. Takeru is a pathetic creep that reeks of loser so badly that no one could get laid within 500 yards ...

Top 15 Anime Nurses: Just What the Doctor Ordered

There’s no doubt that anime nurse characters add spice to a story; their appearance in itself is fanservice. From those who we only get to see for a couple of short scenes in a series to those who stay in the spotlight throughout, here are 15 of the sexiest and most caring caretakers in anime!
