Story: Well...it is really hard to score this for Lucky Star, since the only story there is, is some girls going to school. There is no real plot, but only random scenes out of the life of the main characters. There is no drama, no death, only comedy. Nothing else.
?/10
Characters: This is just as hard to score, but this time I will give it a try. The characters are the typical characters for a moe-show. There is the crazy one, the agressive one, the smart one and the clumsy one and all of them are cute.
We have Izumi Konata. She is the typical lazy Otaku, playing Light Novel, MMOs, console games, reading Manga and watching Anime. She has a really sarcastic humor and is the main idsentification of the show.
Hiragi Tsukasa is the clumsy one of the whole group. She breaks everything and is neither smart nor gifted in anything but being cute.
Hiragi Kagami is the contrary to here twin sister Tsukasa. She is really good in school since she is studying a lot and gets angry quickly.
Takara Miyuki is the smart one. She is really clever and knows almost everything. Still she is almost as clumsy as Tsukasa and just as kind.
6/10
Art: Lucky Star has been produced by Kyoto Animation, who had many major works, such as the almost every key adaption (Clannad, Air, Kannon 2006), K-on and the Haruhi Suzumiya franchise. The style of the show is really moe. The girls who are supposed to be 17 look as if they were still in elementary school and even the mature ones look this way. The Animation is quite good, given that this is a slice of life comedy Anime.
7/10
Sound: The sound is ok. The Soundtrack has nothing special in particular. The Opening though is even if it is really annoying one of the most addicting ones ever and I found myself listening to only this song for over an hour. The ending on the other hand is not definable, since it always is diferent and always for the purpose of comedy (sometimes it really is incredibly hillarious)
7/10
personal enjoyment: This Anime is hillarious. That's why has that much of a fanbase. It basically has no plot and no sense, but the comedy is so well done that you just have to laugh out loud. It has one problem though, and that is nothing that really gets the score down, but something that might be annoying to some. To be able to watch Lucky Star, you should have seen the whole Haruhi Suzumiya franchise (except movie), since there are so many references about it that it actually will be a lot less funny if you don't know it. Of course there are other Otaku references too, but not as siginifcant as this.
10/10
I LOVE THIS ANIME. It's official now. Lucky Star is incredibly funny, but has too many flaws to really give it full points. The plot is nothing that really is missing and I love the fact that it doesn't take Anime seriously at all. The Anime is done for those Otaku's who actually know a lot about the Otaku scene.
In total: 8/10
