Girls Bravo 01


Does Kawasumi Ayako never sleep? It seems she's lending her voice to everything as of late.

Anyway, this actually looks to be a cute show. It appears to be a lightweight in the story department, but that's fine. Sometimes, it's nice to just sit back and smile. And, as the title and promotional art suggests, there's cute girls - with the promise of more cute girls to come.

My only complaint, really, is that the animation seemed a little on the low-budget side. The fog in the bath scenes was particularly annoying - it seemed as if it was tacked on at the last minute simply to please the network. I don't have a problem with fog per se, but this fog looked horrible. I assume it'll be removed (or thinned, at least) for the DVD release, but sheesh.

That was the worst fog I have ever seen. Miharu is terribly, terribly generic, but what can you do? I do like Kirie a lot, though she isn't exactly a bastion of originality herself. (but damn she has nice boobs)

Don't even look for originality anymore. Don't you get it, it will never, ever happen. Everything's been used up already and set in stone. The only thing people can do nowadays is create variations of stereotypes. It's like ice cream flavors, you can only go so far before you end up with banana-toenail or something like that. Personally, I find safety in routine, and hell, I look for the same kind of characters that make me smile. Miharu is adorable, and the fact that Ayako Kawasumi voices her is an added bonus. My only complaint is that her character design looks a lot like Yuna's, from Maburaho. Can't wait for the rest of the series. It kinda looks like this book I'm writing, that's why I want to find out about the rest of the story, haha.
