Okami-san
Embodying the fairy tales of yore, Okami-San is a fun, hilarious, romantic romp. (Warning, there is a spoiler at the end of the story panel)


Story
The story centers upon a modern day club, The Otogi High School Bank, which does essentially any requested favor which in return earns the club a favor that can be cashed in at any time. This club plot seems quite over-used but Okami-san offers a unique story line where many episodes are re-telling of classic fairy tales, such as Cinderella, but with a memorable Okami-san twist. Many are quite noticeable and others are more subtle. The Romance between the main characters starts off with one sided love but both begin realizing their feelings as the show progresses. The ending although a cliffhanger, was great where it left off being a true Tsundere ending, with Ryōko not being able to express her romantic feelings.

Characters

All characters within Okami-San are quite pleasant; the side characters are lovable and the main antagonist is delightfully evil. Much like the plot, all characters are based on fairytale characters.

Ryōko Ōkami is the “Main character” within Okami-San. Beginning as a simple Tsundere, scary and tough on the outside and sweet and kind on the inside, but is later learned she has had a tough last couple of years. She originally sees Ryōshi as a weakling but later develops romantic feelings for Ryōshi.

Ryōshi is actually the “real” main character with many segments focusing on him. Ryōshi is a shy boy suffering from Ophthalmophobia, a fear of people staring at him. Ryōshi also is able to blend into the environment for he has a bland appearance. Incidentally he is deeply in love with Ryōko doing everything is his power to protect her.

Art

The Backgrounds are pleasant and the character designs are almost standard, however the character design also portrays the personality of a character. Such as Ryōshi, whose eyes are rarely shown showing his ability to blend into the environment. Many other character designs portray the fairytale character the character is based off of.

Sound

Quite standard, although the narrator’s voice frequently cuts off many of the important details due to loudness (This may be only my copy)

Overall
Okami-san is an adorable comedy that is well worth the watch
