I told myself I'd write a review for Seitokai Yakuindomo immediately after finishing it, but eh, a couple weeks later is okay, right?
Story: 6
Seitokai Yakuindomo's story is very cliché. A boy starts attending a school that used to be girls-only, he joins the student council, which has only female members--we've all heard it before etc, etc. If you're looking for epic plot and character development, look elsewhere, Seitokai Yakuindomo is good for laughs, not becoming a better human being, going on an adventure through anime, or other things like that; It's not even good for fapping. The reason I personally enjoyed Seitokai Yakuindomo was precisely
...
that. Seitokai Yakuindomo is perverted by all means, but it's in a different way than the majority of ecchi shows...It's actually funny. Throughout this 13-episode Seitokai no Ichizon lookalike, you'll actually laugh. The comedy ranges from simple comedic timing, to completely perverted jokes, to out-of-place 'wtf why is there a teddy bear with a ballgag?'. This show is a very fun watch, but I will tell you to steer clear of it if either of the following apply to you: 1) You're looking for something serious 2) You dislike anything remotely related to ecchi.
Art: 7
SYD's art is nothing amazing, but it's definitely nothing bad either. The animation is nice and flows smoothly and the characters are cute. Of course there is some censoring of certain.. objects.. but that doesn't take away from the show because you'll definitely know what they are. And it's not like there is any explicit ecchi content (as in naked people) to censor.
Sound: 7
In terms of Seiyuu, SYD has decently popular voice actors. Shino and Aria are voiced by Hikasa Youko and Satou Satoumi (the voices of Mio and Ritsu of K-On!), respectively. And, my personal favorite, Arai Satomi (Kuroko from To Aru Majutsu no Index/To Aru Kagaku no Railgun) lends her voice to the expressionless newspaper club member, Hata Ranko. There are no complaints to be made about the voice acting in SYD, and hey, I like the opening as well. Osai Girls and Boys~!
Character: 8
The characters really make the show for me here. Well maybe not the characters, but the things that they say. Shino: tall blunt school prez, Aria: tall, busty Shirley-lookalike Ojou-sama, Suzu: genius loli Nagi-lookalike with a Napoleon complex, Tsuda: generic too nice anime lead. I just gave you a good idea of the characters you will encounter when watching Seitokai Yakuindomo, I'm sure they sound pretty much as generic as possible, but if you watch the show, I think you'll find that with good, entertaining writing, even the most generic characters can become hilarious.
Also, an honourable mention to Yokoshima-sensei, she's awesome.
Enjoyment: 9
This is what made me continue to watch Seitokai Yakuindomo throughout summer 2010 season. The writing on this show is hilarious. I liked this show because I never knew what the characters were going to say next, but I knew whatever it was, it'd be funny. I laughed through every episode and you will too, as long as you don't fall into one of the 'do not watch' categories I mentioned earlier.
I recommend this show to anyone who wants something that will make them laugh, doesn't mind pervertedness, and has free time on their hands. This show isn't a total /must see/, but if you enjoyed what I said about it in my review, I recommend checking it out :)

I am a total ecchi-enthusiast, so keep in mind I might be a little in love with this show when writing my review.
Story: 10
Haha. Most people would probably shrug this show off as "Are you serious?" or "Wow, what perverts", as the synapsis makes it seem like Yamada is a total slut and that all you'll get is very intense fanservice for 12 episodes. Think KissxSis or Rosario+Vampire-esque. But B Gata H Kei is not purely fanservice, there is actually a very funny story, and when there is fanservice it's not that trashy, are-you-kidding-me kind. A girl who thinks her vagina looks weird and
...
wants 100 sex friends? Sounds good to me. But there is so much more to B Gata H Kei. A girl's quest to have sex filled with hilarious dialogue and outrageous situations. Ecchi comedy at its finest.
Art: 8
The art is pretty good. Yamada and others are well drawn and cute and backgrounds and scenery (like Kanejou's house) can be very pretty. Kosuda definitely fits the generic high school male description, and this is very refreshing in contrast to the majority of "normal" anime males with six packs, spikey blonde hair, etc. Boobs can be a bit huge in this show, but it's not disgusting and trashy because of B Gata H Kei's comedic element.
Sound: 8
The show has a decent amount of popular seiyuu including Tamura Yukari and Horie Yui as Yamada and Takeshita, respectively, so sound is nice and the voice acting isn't forced and unbelievable or anything. The OP and ED are cute to me, and will probably be cute to you too if you're a Yukarin fan :). The background music isn't made up of mellifluous symphonies or anything TENMON-esque, but it gets the job done and isn't annoying or anything. The random "B Gata H Kei~" is cute. ^^
Character: 9
YAMADA. I love Yamada so much, she'd get a 10/10 from me. Yamada is so entertaining, and her sorta tsuntsun side, though cliche, can make episodes very funny. The best part about Yamada is that she's daring, as you'll see if you watch the show. And let's face it, it's not often that you have a sex-obsessed female character in anime.
Kosuda can also have his awesome moments, though he usually fits the typical high school male role that he's supposed to fit (which is a good thing). Other characters like Takeshita, Kanejou, and Miyano often add to the comedic relief of the show and are valuable aspects to this show's comedy.
Enjoyment: >9000
I wish I could give this show an infinity in enjoyment, because that's what really makes this show a 10/10, the only 10/10 I've ever given, for me. I remember watching every episode of this show and not wanting it to end. This show is hilarious and I enjoyed it to the fullest extent. Today, 6/18/10, I finished the series and I sort of wanted to cry, because there'd be no more of this show to entertain me on a weekly basis. ): The comedy in this show is amazing, though it can still manage to be serious and/or erotic.
B Gata H Kei is an amazing watch if you just want to enjoy yourself and don't mind a little ecchi. If you're an ecchi-enthusiast like I am, I highly recommend this show, as it is probably the best, and seriously the classiest ecchi I've ever seen. I know classy ecchi sounds a little bit strange, but I promise you, this is not a Rosario + Vampire kind of ecchi with panty shots galore, but the fanservice is there where it's supposed to be, the comedy balances it out so it's not gratuitous.
If you love ecchi and comedy, you'll surely love B Gata H Kei~!
