I'm guessing it's either that or her blood type, the gata can mean a lot of things, style, shape, blood type. The Kei is probably translated as "type of person". The H is probably hentai, ecchi?

The literal translation might then be: "Perverted B-type girl"?

Or I could be completely wrong.

"gata" is usually used for blood type -> "B-gata"=Blood Type B(I think) and "kei" is used for hobby/obsession(again not sure) ->"H-kei"=likes H or something like this.. it is like "akiba-kei"(akihabara otaku) or "johnny-kei"(Johnny Jimusho's fangirls in this case)

- H is the equivalent of "ecchi" in Japanese.
It could mean sex or any perverted thing.
- "B gata" means "Type B"

I had another random thought.

What if the B was in fact be possibly a pun on "bi" as in beautiful? After all Yamada does call herself a bishoujo.

In the third episode, while Yamada was waiting for Kosuda in the haunted room, she said "B gata ecchi-kei", which was translated in the CG release to "B type eroticism". Also, the way they pronounce H at the title, it definetely sound like "ecchi", and the B can mean many thing as it's coming up in the series very frequently.

Yes in Japan the B gata referes to the blood type, in Japan there is the beleif that certain blood type has certain personality.

Also in Japan they like to play with words, so I think they mean both (blood type and bust cup) because of this costume they have and if you watch the op other girls have F and really their bust is bigger also there is c, and an a for a girl ( her younger sister)

About the H they abbreviate the sound of ecchi in H since "eych" (the pronounciation of H) and ecchi is pronounced the same in japanese.

Gata (型) and Kei (系) pretty much means the similar thing; their relationship is like row and colume. She describes herself of being B Gata H Kei, since she have B cup breast size and H level of eroticism. Simple as that.

SHes a hooker, it doesnt matter.
O whait i resolve it B gata, Of B-type of girl and H Kei Of Hooker with or some guy called Kei.
Translated will mean something like this " B-Type Hooker of Kei" or maybe just for non Misconceptions " B-Type Hooker of Kei Procurer"..... IM a Genius.

Those are coalguys subs and they always Americanize things, so its probably safe to assume its not that exactly, though it doesnt rule out that its something similar

I really wish they would have explained why that was. I mean, just why does she want to do so many people when she hasn't even done it once yet? Why 100? I wanted to get to know her motives a little better I guess.

They had to censor it a bit in the anime, but in the manga her sister is a world class whore. It has something to do with Yamada being swayed by her sister's behavior, and that she thinks she has to do it with loads of guys in high school so she will have experience when shes older.

Also, the thing about this series I find completely brilliant is the fact that the sex roles are reversed. Yamada and Kosuda are similar to a regular school couple (just, you know, exaggerated for the sake of comedy), just that usually he would be the girl and she the guy.

i.e in high school there are guys that wish to screw as many girls as possible, and are jerks, like Yamada. Kosuda is like a normal girl: Its not that he doesn't want her, hes just going a little slower and isn't a man-slut.

I believe those are subs. Please dun take it as the actual meaning. Cause slut is a bit offensive to conservative countries... which I believe Japan is too.

Some people want to be an astronaut, some people want to get perfect marks, and some people want to have sex with 100 guys while in school.

Do you really need a reason?

On a base level: She knows nothing about sex, but the idea is really appealing to her, so she sets her goals absurdly high. B Gata H Kei's ridiculous premise is meant to be ironic, accentuating Yamada's awkward journey toward discovering something special with one boy in her class.

I can see why subbers have translated it as a lot of things.

Summary: 'B Gata' means 'Type B', as in blood type (blood type is commonly used in Japan a bit like star signs, I should totally find out mine >_<) But it's quite obviously referring to Yamada's cup-size.

'H Kei' means something like 'Group H' But the H is referencing 'hentai'. H in Japanese is pronounced 'ecchi' and is used to actually mean sex. (as in 'let's have ecchi!' x3)

But 'B-Type, Group-H' is a boring translation; I like 'B-cupped Slut', lmao

do they even talk about blood type during the show?

i think it makes more sense to make the B mean her breast size and the rest you all should know. after all, the title is talking about her.

it would not make sense to tell us she has b-type blood for no reason. if it does mean blood type (which i doubt), is she B positive or B negative because blood-types are not typically given without negatives or positives?

After trying to remember the meaning behind "nyannyan", a friend and I....

http://zokugo-dict.com/04e/abcd.htm - It's similar to what we Westerners would call bases.

A = kissing
B = petting/foreplay
C = sex
D = pregnancy

I'm pretty sure it means "B-type(I assume type in this case is referring to bust size, there was a scene in the anime that made me think this, I'll update it with the part when I find it) pervert/slut(since H refers to pervish things. It's all about context)".

I watched the English Subtitles version on Hulu and some where in the middle of Episode 5 Yamada says this sentence: "As it stands, far from H ["naughty"] Kei, it's just B Gata Youth Kei!". So whoever subbed this noted that the H does mean naughty. The wording of the last part of the sentence in respect to the first, gives the impression of meaning the opposite of naughty. And it seems like the B is just Yamada referring to herself in general. It could be her bust size or blood type, but it is at least certain that the B is meant to be a reference to the character Yamada in some way. The romaji "kei" means type, kind, group, or system, and considering the context that it is used I would say it means type. The romaji "gata" seems to be a phonetic variation used to soften and connect words in Japanese. So I would say that the title "B Gata H Kei" translates to "Yamada's the Naughty Type".

only watched a few episodes of this series and it was stupid funny.

however concerning the title 'B Gata H Kei' from most translation they say it is
type B style H concerning what Yamada is looking for my guess is
B = boy
H = horny

considering she is looking for a virgin boy for her first. jus putting this one out there as noone else suggested it

After reading all the comments so far, one obvious interpretation not mentioned by anybody is contained in the title of the 11th episode, "Year 2 Class H`s Christmas Eve!" and on the signs above the door to Yamada's homeroom at school, which appear at various points in the show. The characters of the show are all in "B Class" (second year HS students) and "H Group" (homeroom H).

That said, it is also obvious that the title is intended by the mangaka as a very profound pun, with multiple layers of meaning. So, all the other interpretations offered in this thread are right too.

B Gata H Kei is just a very humorous way of saying the coolest b-cup chick is ready for sex.

The B is a reference to the main character Yamada's bust size, Gata is a Romanian term for ready, the H is just an abbreviation for the word Hentai, H kei normally has to do with the word ecchi, a Japanese word for sex, and Kei is a Japanese female name, short for Keiko which can be translated to the coolest chick in the world.

On the side note most of the fun is in the k of kei since if you put two v together it will make a k which the manga author Yoko Sanri make a reference to at the end of the manga when Kosuda mention that he is in k university.
