This one is a little hard to wrap my mind around. Don’t get me wrong – I was laughing like a damn maniac every episode because the things they say, or the puns they make, or the irony of the situation is just too hilarious. This anime really did make me laugh like no other one has. The only problem really is their way of doing so: sex jokes. That’s right, of every element known to man that has any comedic value sex jokes was the way they decided to go. And you know what? It was not even half bad. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants to have a good laugh. But be warned: it may be a little uncomfortable if you can't handle it. Nonetheless, its a great show. Just fantastic.
Story:
The story is very simple: boy goes to school, gets stopped by student official, is forced into joining their club, and then becomes very good friends with all the new people of the club. So essentially, he goes to school, is tagged for wearing his uniform in a sloppy manner, and then is forced into the club (in this case, the student council). Except you get much more than you thought you would. Of the three girls, Shino Amakuza is the perverted but exceptionally smart president. Aria Shichijou is the beautiful, rich ditzy girl who spaces out almost all the time, but she IS second best at school behind the president. Suzu Hagimura is super smart, the genius of the school, but is barely standing at 4 feet tall. Maybe even less. You can’t help but love the blend of characters.
Art:
This was probably the biggest flaw, as it was a big factor in why this series didn’t get a higher score. The animation was good. But that’s all. It was good. There where some parts where if you freeze frame, you see a grotesque image of facial features (nose, mouth, eyes) too far to the left, or too close together, or too far down. But when they move, it all goes back. So all in all, the animation is not bad. But I definitely think that the producers could’ve put more thought into it.
Sounds:
Ahh. The entrance was just great. Even from the first episode, the intro was very fun and childish and it just wasn’t as serious as the intro’s of most of the anime that I’ve been watching. So it was a nostalgic feeling I got from hearing the intro. And at just over a minute long, its worth it. I recommend you watch it at least once. But I gotta tell you, I watched it every chance I could.
Characters:
This is probably the best part. The characters are wayyyyy wacky, and I just couldn’t get over it. The inner machination of their minds is a complete mystery. You can’t say you like the rain, because then one says that it nicely camouflages the sound of masturbating. You can’t say you like it either, because then the other would say that you can’t safely masturbate because the rain makes it hard to hear who is approaching you. Odd? Yes. And the poor guy just cant win. What’s good is that they’re in groups. You’ve got the President and Shichijou being the perverted weirdos, and you’ve got Tsuda and Hagimura who are always combating what they say and attempting to keep the norm. They honestly all made even the perverted uncomfortable stuff watchful. I can’t tell you how hard these characters made me laugh. Schichijou is so damn adorable, because she’s rich, and thus, clueless. Not to say all people are clueless, but when you’re spacing out on the stairs for a few good minutes, then come to the realization that the school doesn’t have escalators like you’re accustomed to – yeah, that persons pretty much an idiot. The first time I saw her space out I was laughing hysterically and had to re-watch it about 5 times. I’m not a big fan of anything over ecchi unless I’m prepared for it or unless it is relevant to the story. In this case, it was relevant to the personality of the characters. They made it truly enjoyable.
Enjoyment:
I can’t tell you just how much I enjoyed this show. This show is seriously the first time I started laughing like a damn maniac. I felt like such an idiot, but I couldn’t stop. It was definitely one of the best shows I’ve seen in a long time. I honestly loved it. This is seriously recommended to someone who is MATURE. Not an age rank, but someone who can handle the amount of perverseness in here. If you’re uncomfortable with vibes or sexual innuendos, then turn away. It’s funny, but you need to be mature enough to get the jokes and know what’s meant to be funny and what isn’t.
Flaws:
The only flaw is the main plot for mostly everything: ecchi. Every episode has a perverted character in it. I’m not a huge fan of pervertedness, and so I didn’t really like the premise for the jokes, but it wasn’t all that bad. All in all, it’s a great show, recommended for anyone who wants to have a good laugh.
