Asu no Yoichi!

Asu no Yoichi is a mediocre anime that lacks a lot to be good so don't watch it but if you want to, go ahead read what you're getting into. Story It's a Harem/Ecchi anime so you shouldn't expect anything special from this, the story is about Yoichi an overpowered samurai (but that makes sense because he spent his whole life training to be the best samurai), a samurai that wants to expand his knowledge on other abilities that he doesn't know so his father sends him to a Dojo that specializes in the same ability (really?), he wants to see if they can teach him somethingnew, he gets a Harem of sisters where 2 of them are interested in him, the problem is that he has no social skills whatsoever so he doesn't know how to behave to the situations he or the sisters put him into; They stumble upon other people from other Dojos with different abilities, Yoichi beats them and, that's it, the story is dumb. Art & Sound The art is good, could have been better, but it was well animated but not smooth. The sound was good, the music and voice acting were good. Character The character development was mediocre, i liked only one of the sisters, Ayame, i also really liked Washizu he was funny with Torigaya who in every episode gets smaller and smaller (and only in the manga you will know the reason behind this apparently) every other character was just uninteresting but Yoichi was my least favorite, he was too naive. Enjoyment I really liked a lot the comedy Washizu and Torigaya had to offer, but they appeared from time to time so it was not that enyojable, Washizu was the best character (which didn't appear a lot) and i liked Ayame too, which makes them the best part of the anime, also the weak ending didn't help.

Im going to start off on a bad note because i feel that this mini series lacked a plot and has a pathetic excuse for one. HOWEVER this anime wasnt particularly bad unless you actually found the plot interesting(like i did) only to be disappointed that it was just to make the synopsis look pretty. The one thing i did enjoy the most were the characters. Each character of the ikaruga household were unique and was interesting to watch the character development of each individual in the earlier episodes. A definite reason as to why i continued to watch this anime... The comedy wasnt all as goodas it should be considering this story had little plot and a rushed climax. The "accidental" breast groping incidents were just not funny after the first and second time and the material was recycled countless times making this series not as enjoyable as it should have been. Overall it was average.

First review I’ve done- It doesn’t matter significantly of what others think about a particular anime. Everyone has their own taste, so in general, a review should be based purely on what you thought about it. Prior to watching Asu no Yoichi!I did a little research on it and came to the conclusion that it’s a harem anime. New to this kind of genre, I took the liberty of trying it and at the end I really enjoyed it. Asu no Yoichi! Is about a 17 year old samurai who has lived in a rural area for most of his life along with his father and someanimals to company him. One day his father asks him to move to the city as he can’t make him stronger and also for experience. He seizes this opportunity and starts living with 4 sisters to assist him with his training. Throughout the show the protagonist of the story Yoichi along with his acquaintances, embark on various tasks that need addressing. Storyline- 5/10 The anime lacked a strong plot, it basically went like this- Boy living in the mountains-moves to the city-has to survive in the city-train in the city-save some of his friends from enemies that aren’t even portrayed as strong compared to him. In between all this, there is plenty of romance as well as humor to keep you glued into watching it. Asu no Yoichi doesn’t really have a strong storyline, its basically a bunch of short scenarios put together to form the first season. Also it felt as if it was a little rushed towards the end but it also leaves an opening for a second season. art-8/10 The art was done pretty well and the company who made the show are used to producing shows with good quality art. Sound- 8/10 Nice selection of music for each moment. Can’t really emphasize enough for this area, as you wouldn’t tend to pay much attention to it. That said, the intro music and the end sounded all right. Character-6/10 There wasn’t much character development throughout the series. However, there was at least an episode dedicated to the main characters that explored them more thoroughly and there is a bit of interaction between one another. Also Yoichi was overpowered and unlike other typical ecchi harem anime’s, this one only has roughly 3 girls that are attracted to the protagonist. Enjoyment-9/10 Loved it so much that I practically finished it within 24 hours. What I liked the most about Asu no Yoichi! Was the humor, throughout the episodes, there is plenty of it. Overall-7/10 It’s really an anime in which you can sit back and relax too offering you some enjoyable entertainment and isn’t meant to be too serious.

To tell the truth i didn't think i will enjoy this as much i did.At first i think this will be boring,and i will probably drop it at first two episodes,but i was wrong.I liked this anime a lot,don't get me wrong it wasn't perfect,but if you like funny anime to kill some time i would recommend this one.Characters are great,and funny.But if you want some great marshal arts and fights this one is not for you.You would be just fine if you would watch one episode per night to get some laughs before going to sleep.And if you like anime I would also recommendto read manga,in my opinion it is little better that anime.
