High School girls is a straight forward comedy with a lot of in your face jokes about the lives of a group of girlfriends attending a high school. They don't joke about typical things that are safe for children. Rather, they take the more adult oriented ecchi route and run with it. Story (Good) The story runs in a typical sitcom style, with every "issue" solved in 30 minutes or less. Things usually start in a safe manner (like going to gym class or going karaoke), but by the end it just ends up all sexed up and wacky. Sexual innuendo's are all over this show.Thats part of this shows charm and makes it pretty entertaining (if you like that kind of stuff). Art (Decent) --- Sound (Mediocre) The art and sound is all pretty average for what its worth. Art is not too detailed but not too simplistic. It's very... AVERAGE. Although they drew the girls all cute like and hilarious, you can tell that everything else (backgrounds, static objects, etc) had less time taken to produce. The sound has typical anime comedy sounds but what helps out the most is the music in the show. It's all so very upbeat and happy, I could hear Kirameku (op song) over and over and it won't get old. Even after a year of finishing this show, I still enjoy that song as much as I did the first time heard it. Character (Good) This show doesn't have much in terms of sound, story, or art. So High School Girl's trump card to make this show remotely worth watching are the high school girls. With the lack of men in the show the girls all take center stage and make for some pretty unique moments. Particularly from all the innuendo jokes. Those moments are so wrong, its hilarious. The girls aren't even over developed as you would expect from an ecchi comedy. Rather they're all drawn like normal looking girls, which help enhance the comedy. Overall if you enjoy a good ecchi comedy that more based on situational jokes rather than blatant fanservice with a few jokes. Give this one a shot. It is definitely for anyone who enjoys a dirty joke or two. And a special note: some of the funniest jokes are at the very end after the credits.
Story: To put it bluntly, theres not much of a story that this show follows, it more or less depicts a group of girls that meet under abnormal circumstances and become friends due to that. While each episode depicts some sort of relationship within the group, there isn't any over reaching story arc. Nonetheless, each episode helps the characters become more and more enjoyable. Art: Again nothing special. There was nothing ground breaking about the character designs and backgrounds, but that wasn't what this show was aiming for. The cutesy feel that the designs give off are exactly what helps make the show. Sound: Again, aperfect fit for the show. Background and Thematic music fit well. As for the OP/ED very annoying. Its a fun jpop sound that annoyingly sticks after listening to it. Character: I've been a little rough on the show so far, but this is where it begins to shine. The quality of the characters shine though, allowing the show to truly become enjoyable. As for the series of events that these characters partake in, you can't help but sympathize with them. They just make the show that good. Overall: while this show is nothing special in the grand schemes of anime, it was enjoyable nonetheless. As for the last episode "stupidity, never ending stupidity" sums the show up fairly well. But thats what the show was all about. It was a lot of fun to watch. sadly its only a 12 ep run, If you liked Ouran high school host club or Azumanga Daioh, this should easily fit in somewhere between the two.
Joshi Kousei, also knows as high school girls. Its is utterly hilarious, if you're a girl you'll laugh even harder since you know just how it is to be a chick. Sometimes its a giving and sometimes its a curse to be a girl, and this series brings out all the funs and joys of being a highschool girl in japan. So much fun to watch and even better if you were to watch it with your girlfriends (friends that are girls). If your a dude you might not get the same humor, then again i wouldnt know since im not a guy, but ithink it'll still be funny for you. This serieries is basically just about a group of friends in an all girls school hanging out and having fun. Not much of a story line, each episode is a little random, but its mainly for the enjoyment of the comedy. The art is a tad bit older, but it delivers. Its really not that bad. And no, its not a yuri. I saw it twice, one by myself and the other with my friend, and we were cracking up. I really enjoyed this anime and hope you do too x3
High School Girls is a slice of life and comedy anime that I watched only because of someone I knew. This is also an anime I didn't think I'd finish... Eventually, I found out that I was wrong. For people that tend to go for the shounen or seinen anime (like me), this may seem boring. It's basically just about the overall average lives of a group of teen girls. But, despite lacking in action, the story and the characters are really funny. And, in my opinion, this makes up for everything. This anime isn't always lighthearted though. Some situations end up being more serious thanthe others are. I like that it's not just humor. The art isn't impressive but it looks kinda cute. It totally fits the slice of life genre. I like the effects for the more comic moments. Also, the animation's fine. There's no weird looking movements or anything like that. The opening and ending are good and fit the show very well but they're only a little memorable. The sound effects work almost perfectly. Characters are supposed to have depth... These characters don't have too much of that. They're all funny in some way and are given an overall personality that they stick with throughout the show. The fact that the characters are simple doesn't ruin the show though. Story: 9 Art: 9 Sound: 8 Character: 7 Enjoyment: 10 For an ecchi slice of life anime, it's actually pretty good. The show is memorable to some extent and it's really easy to get laughs out of it. Overall, it gets a 9.
Here's the bottom line: if you're a shoujo fanboy and like high school shows, you'll probably totally dig on High School Girls (aka Girl's High). The plot isn't original. The show follows 6 high school girls through one year (first year) of high school. Along the way we visit the Sports Fest, the Culture Fest, we go to amusement parks, sing karaoke, and even go to a love hotel! But nothing groundbreaking. The 6 girls all have different personalities, of course. We have the sweet girl, the innocent girl, the tsundere, the girl who loses her viriginity, and a couple more cutiesthrown in for good measure. I liked the fact that there are 6 girls in the main storyline instead of 3 or 4 you sometimes get with these high school shows. What makes the show good is the character development of the girls. The interaction and friendships among them work well and there are a few mild subplots that also carry interest throughout. We also have the usual male teachers leering after the girls and of course that makes for some hilarity. There is a fair amount of naughty humor and indecent situations, more than you'd see in most other HS shows. This is why I HIGHLY recommend this for fanboys. Hey, the girls are cute, the show is fun to watch, and there's pretty good repeat value too. High School Girls is a winner in my book!
While browsing titles for something with a high school setting, I stumbled upon Girl's High... Six high school girls and their misadventures, plus some ecchi? There was no reason for me not to give this a chance. Each one of the six MCs has her own personality: there's an immature one (make it two, actually), a petite one, a shy one, a mature one, and one that wants to be an actress. I must say that I liked each and every one of them; there was no MC that I hated. I really liked how the characters were created (which includes their designs), as well astheir relations. They do have their bickering, but at the end of the day, they stick together to overcome any problem they run into. A bit cliché maybe, but it still works for me. The sound is also good. I especially liked the ending theme. Why I liked this anime: while watching, I kept seeing things that I wanted to see. For example, in TV shows with a high school setting, I really like to see the antagonist: usually a rich and popular girl who plays the MC's rival. There was such a character here. Then there were some (mildly) dirty jokes, innuendos... I simply couldn't dislike that. Another good thing about Girl's High is that, unlike some similar titles, episodes don't look like each other: they explore different parts of the girl's lives. In one episode the girls have a dating party, in another they participate in the school sports fest, then they go to the swimming pool, then the culture fest... I liked the variety of stories. What about ecchi? Well, much to my misfortune, there's no nudity here; just a great amount of pantyshots, especially in the first few episodes. It's just not my thing (personally, I don't even consider anime an ecchi just because it has lots of pantyshots), and I would've liked it better if they showed us some boobs, but it's not a big complaint. At the end, I was disappointed because this anime only has one season. The last episode left some space for more episodes, but unfortunately, apart from three short OVA episodes, there's nothing more. Which is such a darn shame. To put it shortly, this anime reminded me of Azumanga (six high school girls and their everyday lives), but with more mature humor. Since I like both Azumanga and mature humor, this anime was almost bound to "buy" me. And it did. Okay, I can't say it's my new favorite thing, but it was definitely worth my time.
What can I say? This was one of the very first Animes I ever watched. I wouldn't say it was what started my love for Anime, as it was Clannad that did that, and we can all understand why. Even so, High School Girls introduced me to the types of stories Anime offers. This particular programme has many, with a variety which I love. It starts out as being quite adult orientated it seems, with adult themes and ideas. Certainly not one for the kids. As the stories progress though, there is more focus on developing the characters themselves, ratherthan pleasing the people that want a shot of underwear, something which I'm glad of. Therefore I believe the stories deserve an 8/10. They're very good. As it was my first series to watch, I got a good taste of what to expect from similar programmes. The hardcore anime fan won't like how there isn't any real storyline, it jumps from one theme to the next. The art is good, I can't speak much negativity about it. It's designed to make the series itself enjoyable, not something you gawp over how good the extra effects are. That simplicity is what I like. However the only negative I have is some of the clothing there are is a little odd. I'm talking about Kouda especially. I didn't see the point of trying to get an extra laugh out of making her clothing occasionally overly sexual. Oh well. A decent theme tune. I like it. You remember how it goes. Being knowledgeable in music I know how it can influence programmes and this tune in particular helps to emphasise the enjoyment you should get out of the show. On the in show music, you normally hear a monophonic piano melody which accompanies dialogue. It also includes fart sounds, which honestly works, again adding to the fun factor. Although, this piano melody happens too often. There could be more variety. The characters. Ah! They really nailed it! Each girl has a personality that befits their look, and they respond to situations how they should. My highlight of the series was Ogawa being taken to the love hotel, yet saving herself without even realising it because she is meant to be very innocent. It's not just one character though. Koudas flamboyance is contrasted by Ayanos shyness and daring with her boyfriend Shimotakatani. There is a lot to like about High School Girls, but the characters traits are what you have to like the most. I enjoyed the series. I really did. So much so I have rewatched it, to relive what got me into anime in the first place. The humour is enjoyable, as is the simplicity. Some animus become really complicated, but this sticks to basics which makes it fun to watch and easy to follow. That is why I give this anime 8/10 overall. For the anime newbie it is fantastic. It provides fun for 12 episodes and you will feel pleased that you watched it. However it isn't perfect, as the story is evidently very wayward (well it can be said there isn't a story in the first place. Just some girls becoming friends and then lots of subplots which really have no relation whatsoever) and that isn't really good enough for the hardcore Otaku. I can safely say though even after re watching it, there is still something about it you like. It should be terrible, but it really is one to watch, you won't regret it.
If your a teenage boy and you wanted to know the kind of conversations 14 to 15 year old girls have when the boys aren't around, boy is this anime going to scratch that itch whether you want it or not. The story of Joshi Kousei: Girl's looks at the lives of 6 teenage girls as they make the transition from middle school to high school and how they're excited and somewhat nervous about making that transition to high school. However, as they start they're first day oh high school they are constantly building up and exaggerating an unrealistic expectation on what to expect outof going to an all girl's high school with often results in a lot of great hilarity. The biggest credit I will give to this anime and watching the misadventures of 6 teenage girls as they navigate the scary reality of going to high school for the very first time is that it's incredibly funny. I can't tell you how many times this anime has had plenty of laugh out loud moments regardless if it's through visual gags, embarrassing situations, or sharp witted dialogue but the funny thing is that the humour comes from all of the 6 anime girls to varying degrees. Even though we have 6 main characters in this anime with the girls Eriko and Akira taking up the majority of the spotlight and being responsible for some of the best humour throughout the anime, but I do appreciate the fact that each of the other school girls has their moment to shine throughout this entire experience. All these silly shenanigans take place throughout typical high school settings that you'd expect out of an all girl's Japanese high school such as the first day of school, the high school physical, different sports and cultural festivals, and even a good old fashioned trip to the amusement park during summer break. I will hand it to this anime because the concept of the anime could of been really boring and incredibly clean cut while we watch a bunch of high school girls try to navigate high school but the anime goes the extra mile of tackling on topics that are not necessarily clean cut but in all actuality are topics that teen girls probably talk about to their female friends when their parents or boys are not around albeit they do it in hysterical fashion. They talk about periods, beauty tips, sex, body image, boys, getting a date, having a crush on their teacher, dealing with perverts, and dating parties which often leads into a lot of expected hilarity. They even take the time albeit not to a great detailed length that some of the girls have gone through some aspect of teenage life that many teenage girls have already experienced through adolescence. One of the female characters has already lost her virginity, one high school girl dreams of being an actress, one of the teenage girls has a boyfriend and is being unbelievable lovey dovey throughout the entire experience. Despite the anime's focus on humour throughout the many misadventures of trying to navigate an all girl's high school it does take a break about the halfway point of the anime when a meddlesome little sister of one of the 6 main female high school students goes to great lengths to sabotage the friendship that her older sister has with these 5 other girls. The little sister has issues of her own and it's up to the bigger sister to find out why she is acting this way while protecting the friendship she has with these 5 other girls. It gives the viewer a nice little break from the zany humour that you'll see throughout this anime. The biggest elephant to address in the room when it comes to this anime is the fan-service and the fan-service in this anime is really a mixed bag. It never truly goes over the line of actually showing any nudity of any sort but the fan-service definitely is there with the amount of panty shots and close ups on specific female body parts throughout this 12 episode misadventure but the fan-service is done in such a way where it's exemplified from my perception for purely comical purposes. This is definitely the case in the episode where the girls are going through their high school physical by wearing these scantily clad hospital gowns as they navigate through the school to get through each section of the high school physical before the end of the school day and another case where the girls suffer wardrobe malfunctions as they're going down the water-slide at the amusement park. I personally think the anime does an excellent job camouflaging the tame fan-service with some well placed humour without making things too uncomfortable. The plot of the anime in itself is very self contained minus the two serious episodes. You could watch the anime at any point and not really totally lost with whatever is transpiring throughout each of the episodes which gives this anime a very sit-com feel to it. It truly is about teen girls learning the ropes of getting through the first year of high school while maintaining the friendships they have with each other without getting on each other's nerves. The anime is actually animated very beautifully for 2006, it has that feel of a late 90's anime while having a nice glossy finish with regards to how the teen girls are designed. The anime has this very brief gag at the very beginning of each episode where the teen girls are dressed up as a type of anime fandom regardless if it's pirates, samurai, detectives, or part of a rock band. I really love how the teen girls are animated during the ending credits of each episode. They all have their little dance that they perform during the end credits and the way that the girls are animated while they're dancing is probably some of the best animation I seen in this anime. The music that is used in each episode is passable, but the the highlights of the music is definitely the opening and ending themes with the ending theme of Joshi Kousei being my personal favourite. I personally got my enjoyment out of this anime for having some really effective humour while tackling on topics that no boy really wants to listen. It's probably not a complete accurate representation of the things that teen girls talk about when it comes to going through high school but no matter what the characters talk about, or what playful struggles they have to endure you can be guaranteed that it's going to cause a lot of intentional humour because of it. This anime does something that often a lot of anime struggle with and that is they manage to make all the main characters in this anime completely likeable in their own little way which contributed to my overall enjoyment out of it. It's not going to blow you away, but I hope the great humour in this anime keeps you interested in watching it right to the very end.
Probing for another high school anime? How about something just to put in front of your face for awhile for background noise? Well you’re just in luck, it’s your generic high school comedy where these group of middle school girls are just entering high school. Better not expect anything out of the mundane while watching this cause you’ll be sorely misconstrue. If you’ve seen even one comedy anime you know precisely how this anime plays out already. The same old tropes with a mix of ecchi for good luck. The most creative Joshikousei: Girl's High gets is the pilot. Grimly it’s all the same pointlessness afterwards. Areyou looking for profound characters with any resemblance of character development? I think you get the picture here. Cause you better leave now cause this anime isn’t for you! When I stumbled upon Joshikousei: Girl's High I genuinely thought it was a 90’s anime, even when I first constructed this review. The reason being the lackluster art style that was dated even when it was first conceived. The animation is meager even for its time, all of it just being forgetful. I love old anime, especially anime from the 70’s and 80’s. Most anime from that time define what anime is today. But Joshikousei: Girl's High looks akin to an imitation of 90’s anime without the style. It just has aged so expeditious for a 2006 anime. Comedy is subjective and so is my feelings towards this anime’s funny moments. If you like in your face comedy and ecchi humor this is right up your alley. The comedy here is very of its time and feels like one went back to 2006. Same with the plot, it follows a group of girls and the antics of being in high school and get this, once again with a ecchi twist. There is absolutely no reason for anyone to watch this bland show. It’s the potato chip of anime, you keep consuming and it has zero nutritional value. Unless you’re like me and love empty, vacuous anime like Joshikousei: Girl's High. It’s a brainless comedy anime that has some random humorous bits every few episodes of high school girls getting into absurd situations. If your into that, go for it? I do not recommend this anime to anyone unless you seriously have nothing left to watch.
This show is so full of mature "girl talk", it was mind-blowing. However I did enjoy this show. Even though it literally did not have an ending. The character development was ok and you actually grew to like all the quarky, far from perfect girls in this show. If you want a bit of ecchi and laughs and are not to worried about getting an epic story than this ones for you.
What you see, is what you get... Joshikousei: Girl's High is what you really get when you get an Arms anime adaptation with an all girls cast in school with the typical ecchi hijinks that entails to it and LA could as EASILY have let this review out like that buuut might as well continue. Shall we? With Joshikousei: Girl's High being a very "comedic hijinks" anime well let's start there, well this is an Arms anime so right off the bat, the ecchi shows itself with the typical chest and boob shots and of course the anime uses this as comedy mostly in the main castin undress or "costumes" one way or another, again Arms anime. But for the most part the comedy revolves around the characters jabbing at one another...most of the time the comedy falling flat as the execution and buildup towards most of the"comedic hijinks" are planned out that you can see it projected a mile away. So to this end, did LA even laugh "at all" in this anime...nope. Already falling behind huh -sigh-. The characters of Joshikousei: Girl's High have a bit of development to them and LA has at least two favourite characters, one out of default the other genuine. First is Eriko Takahashi voiced Hitomi Nabatame, the ditz of the group but has times of genius, she has her moments another words but generally is paired with Yuuichirou Odagiri voiced by Mitsuaki Madono her highschool homeroom teacher...who's also a narcissistic and is generally the buttmonkey outside of Eriko's group. Next is Akari Kouda voiced by Satsuki Yukino, the "comedic one" of the group, wanting to be actress one and has a fetish of wearing "wacky costumes" which becomes a running gag throughout the anime, Yuma Suzuki voiced by Masumi Asano is the usual tomboyish girl of the group and has beef with her little sister which does become one of the ONLY serious plotlines in the entire anime. Ikue Ogawa voiced by Sawa Ishige is the naive loli of the group and is generally a satellite character to our next character Kyoko Himeji voiced by Kyouko Hikami the most sane of the group and because of that she is one LA's more genuine favourite characters in the anime with Ayano Satou voiced by Mamiko Noto being the typical shy girl of the group but actually having a boyfriend with a LOONG name in which Ayano says it OFTEN as a running gag, she's also subjected to the buttmonkey status to the rets of the group thanks to her having a boyfriend as a result, guess why LA likes Ayano?...no not because of her glasses!?, she's the buttmonkey to the rest of the group of course and thus LA can feel sorry for her more or less. So overall the characters are slim pickings in terms of good characterization but what there is, the few episodes that dedicates itself to it's characters are minimal as Joshikousei: Girl's High seems to focus on comedy over it's characters in this regard. The animation done by Arms is...expected from them, even early on in the mid-2000's (this was made in 2006). Arms animation is rather basic, even with it's fanservice of all things, with bland typical character designs (sure school girls so), bland typical backgrounding with the only thing LA could give Arms some grace would be it's comical animation because you know, "comedic ecchi anime". Overall Arms' animation was typical even in 2006, quality not withstanding because it WAS the mid-2000's (to counter this though, when this anime came out, animes like School rumble and Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu were out, soooooo) The voice cast was expected especially with the characters that were presented, LA WILL some grace at least as most of the voice actors did decently well with the characters they were given, especially from Kyouko Hikami as Himeji, Satsuki Yoshino as Kouda and Masumi Asano as Yuma and Mamiko Noto as Ayano. So decent voice cast overall, being a bit better in the animation department with what source material they were given after all. LA heard the author of Joshikousei: Girl's High, Towa Oshima being inspired by her own school experiences and with this anime, surely SOME of her experiences were exaggerated to a certain extent for comedy but LA can "kinda" get behind this statement mainly with the clique of the main cast, the fanservice parts and all...questionable at least. Joshikousei: Girl's High has it's MAJOR problems with it, namely the anime entirely focused on comedy over character thus leading to bland characterization towards most of the cast, ok production value from Arms namely the animation even in 2006 when it was released and the biggest complaint LA being the comedy is extremely predictable thus lost any chance of LA laughing even once as to how projected it is. But with it's flaws, Joshikousei: Girl's High has SOME good points namely what characters that have development, namely Yuma, Ayano and Himeji gives us the littlest bit of investment to them and the voice cast did "ok" and uhhh...that's it...hehe. Joshikousei: Girl's High is the best definition of an anime of "What you see is what you get" when your reading the synopsis of this anime, or a better statement would be..."exactly what it says on the tin". Joshikousei: Girl's High is your typical ecchi all girls cast school anime you'd see in the early to late 2000's anime you'd see and from Arms no less, with the only "claim to fame" Joshikousei: Girl's High has gotten being that it's ED getting memetic to the point of it being parodied in other animes...
This was exactly what I was looking for. I wish I’d seen this when I was 11 or 12. As an American, a raunchy female led sitcom is a rarity. One set in high school is unheard of. It’s raunchy yet not in your face lewd (a la Seven mortal Sins). It breaks the mold of the most popular, sought after, athletic, highly intelligent, student council president being the central character. I humanizes the characters by grounding them in the reality that they are not school idols. It’s funny and touching, but not preachy. No life lessons learned, no PSA at the end. I shouldnote, it’s really a slice of life show so it can get kind of boring in between gags. Sadly this anime was ten years old when I watched it and it shows in both character design and animation quality. Suffice to say it didn’t age well. Bonus points for the ending theme "incl." by meg rock and ending animation by Yasuomi Umetsu.
Girl's High is basically a slice-of-life comedy Anime that has aspects of some Ecchi, and tells the story of the everyday lives of 6 girls who are friends. Story: 6/10 As I mentioned in the opening statement, Girl's High is just another slice-of-life comedy. I guess since I am a guy, I wasn't able to relate to the characters, but it did give an insight to how a girl's life (in Japan) is like. There were scenes that made me laugh, and some made me cringe. Either way, I have a neutral opinion about this. Art: 7/10 The art kinda reminded me of the 90's style ofAnime (which is my preferred art style) and it was okay. I didn't like the scenes of fanservice, but it was alright for the most part. Sound: 10/10 The OP and ED of this Anime are very catchy tunes that are very enjoyable. In fact, the ED was a meme in Japan used for different animes a few years ago (Example would be Attack on Titan with the ED song). The instrumental version of the ED is also used in the opening scene of the episodes, and it was nice to hear the song at the beginning and end of the episodes. Either way, the sound was fitting for this anime, especially the silly music that would play in a silly moment. Character: 6/10 The characters didn't really stand out to me, they were just 6 average high school girls who had their flaws, but had personality to each and every one of them. Enjoyment: 6/10 I enjoyed about half of the things that were on here, but many scenes didn't really spark my interest. There are scenes that make you feel happy for the characters, and seeing how they all were united throughout the episodes gave a happy feeling to me. I guess it's just the message of friendship that made me happy. Overall: 6/10 This anime isn't one that stands out, but it has it's pros and cons to go with it. I would recommend this if you want to look into the lives of high school girls and see what they talk about or if you just want to watch an anime to kill time off. Overall, the best feature of this anime was the music.
I defy you to find a more generic show for the genre of girl's in high school. Even the name seems to be there to tell you "no originality here." It's the default slice of life product and honestly I didn't think I would enjoy it all that much. Did it live up to my expectations of mediocrity? Eh, kind of. There were some jokes near the beginning I thought were decently funny, as part of the setup and the character introductions. The running gag with the girl who gets into a relationship with *checks notes* Shimotakatani, was pretty funny. Perhaps it's my racist western outlookbut there's something just inherently comedic to me about a 6 or 7 syllable name being dropped whenever she has to address him. "Oh Ayano," "Oh Shimotakatani-kun." When making fun of these scenes with my brother we'd often just continue to add more syllables until we were saying "Shimonotakanatakatani-kun" or something. It was really the joke that kept us laughing through most of the rest of the show as it ran the gambit of high school anime tropes. The show veers a little into Asobi Asobase territory with it's outlandishness but I don't think any show will ever top the tone of that one, this one stays safely in trope territory for most of it's run with just those few exceptions. When those moments do come around it's all the more unexpected and adds to the comedy quite a bit. Like I mentioned above I think it's a show that'd be a lot more fun to watch with some friends and just riff on it the whole time. 7/10 better than I expected.
