1 I only managed to watch two episodes of Girls High, but that was definitely much worse than Ikki Tousen.

The problem with the Ikki Tousen anime is that it only goes up to about volume 3 of the manga, then fakes an ending. The manga is up to volume 9 in English, and who knows where in Japanese.

Uh.

I'll restate that. One problem with the Ikki Tousen anime...

2 I'm sure that many people try Girl's High because they expect something so over the top that it becomes good. It even works for some. Also, don't forget the importance of the mental frame. If you look at it sideways, Muteki Kanban Musume is the most boring show imaginable, the plot is all screwed up, and the ending is just a freaking loop-back (just how lame is that?). Or how about Bincho-tan? That one is just a cartoon for little kids!

And also, pubic hair just may be someone's fetish. You know, pocky, guns, pubic hair, what's the difference?

3 Steven, no! Don't go out there. It's death to assault that hill! I'm begging ya, let's just back off and let the arty pound it! (Or better yet, we'll take off and nuke it from orbit.)

Seriously, the first episode was merely stupid and racy. It gets FAR worse. I made it through episode 5, and regard it as second only to Dokuro-chan for "Worst Anime I've Ever Seen." Granted, there's much less blood.

I briefly touched on the first couple of episodes here, but never came back to do the full review, apparently.

Let me put it this way. If the episode where all six girls end up in a love hotel with six guys doesn't end it for you, nothing will. Did we really need to see that vibrator?

And Hatchan (Excel Saga) still has the best "eating a banana" scene, bar none.

4 "...we'll take off and nuke it from orbit."

It's the only way to be sure.
