okay so. This was a preetty stupid anime, no offense. Spoilers ahead, boy am I annoyed.
If I were 13 I would probably think its the coolest thing ever, but I am not. The art was average, the characters will be hugging one frame and standing 5 feet apart in the next frame, the jokes were overdone and so was every other line. Guys, I LIKE the power of friendship, but you do not have to pull it out every other second. ever heard anyone say "dont wear out my name"? .....clearly not. The concept is the same
it took me 3 episodes to realize that each
...
one is less than 8 minutes long (and thank the stars, I would not have lasted any longer,) and I cannot tell if the animators were desperate to reach the 7 minute mark through exposition, or desperate to cut DOWN to 7 minutes by not giving this anime an opening. In fact, most of the fights happen during the opening. And it gives me a migraine. The music is unjustifiably intense, not to mention painfully loud. And repetitive. All intense scenes have the same drum in the back, I need to punch someone. With idols singing in the back, because thats how its done yonder these parts.
the worst thing is that this anime cannot decide what it wants to be. Reading the synopsis, I was expecting a badass girl in crossdress that punches the living daylight out of hot guys. She can punch allright, but there is no bite other than that. I have seen WEEDS more aggressive than her, WEEDS!!!!!!!!
And the romantic scenes are so? These guys are bisexual as fuck, and that is the only mildly entertaining thing about them. They cannot decide if they want a bro or a boyfriend, and Hikaru is just as clueless as them. I dont even know if I should waste energy being upset that no one finds out the truth, I DONT KNOW WHAT THE TRUTH IS. I am gonna assume Hikaru is trans. or something.
Houou was the best character, and he only appeared for 10 minutes, AND we got basically no family content. Why could you not tell it wasnt your brother. Why dont you go visit him at home. DO YOU NOT KNOW SOMEONE ELSE WAS JUST ADDED TO YOUR FAMILY REGISTRY. And for everyone else, half an episode of family time riddled with only the most boring stereotypes, and that was IT!! Someone tell me the game is less painful.
I am not going to think about the fact she can most definitely date the man who has been her brother for both of their childhoods, I have exhausted all of my neurons. Or of what insufferable sheep were the supporting cast of no faces. And the characters dont ever get any developement. Oh, you want to know about blondie s past? Too bad, hes your bro and that is all. You want Hikaru (and I guess blondie) to help babysit emos 15 siblings? Too bad, they exist for exposition, and though he is shown to care for them he spends all time training in later episodes and never goes home. I am sorry, did your house burn down with them inside???? Why are they not even mentioned? I despise this lack of understanding of what makes otome actually compelling. It feels like the 4 bachelors have more chemistry with each other than they ever will Hikaru and maybe this should have been marketed as "crossdressing girl with homosexual supporting cast". Oh wait, Thats just OHSC but worse.
This anime could have been enjoyable if it didnt take itself so seriously. I need it to be far MORE demential and stupid to get any joy out. It got a good laught out of me in episode... what, 4? And that was it. A swing and a miss for everything else
And today too, a confident female character is out of my grasp
