Look through the fan service, look through the simple top layer of the story, and Senran Kagura is a fair bit deeper with a story of good turned bad to pursue power and then has thoughts of returning to the good.
Story is a solid 7/10. Yes it's a bit simplified, yes its fan service, but its very approachable and doesn't get bogged down in unnecessary detail.
Art is 9/10. This maybe a bit bias by me being a bit of a perv, but take what you will, it looks good, scenery is enjoyable and it all works.
Sound is 8/10 minimum. English dub for this is very good, and the choices for each character were spot on!
Characters are 9/10 easily. Ikagaru and Katsuragi make this anime, and their voices are perfect in every way! All characters have a back story that makes sense for where they are, and there is a good amount of development for a Fan Service.
Enjoyment and Overall 8/10. I enjoy a good Fan Service as much as the next guy, but sometimes its a bit heavy. Bearing in mind that the story is actually captivating, and the girls aren't trying to impress boys it becomes a lot more enjoyable.
If you have looked at this anime and considered it then absolutely commit and give it a go. It's not going to win any awards, but its also not going to thrown away and never looked at again after you watch it.
Shout out to Ikagaru for being the black haired modest girl that is cute as hell, and with Tipton's voice acting, PERFECTION!
