*Contains some spoilers* I like my short anime. Many of them manage to get things done in a slither of time compared to some lengthier shows and can successfully create a good atmosphere with only 5-10 minutes per episode. Ganbare Douki-chan, whilst still pretty wholesome and sweet, personally did not quite live up to expectations. Twelve weeks of absolutely nothing. You know something feels off when an anime short such as this, feels almost like a waste of your time. The shows duration says it runs for five minutes, but we would be lucky to get HALF that amount of time spent on something that's notthe fricking ending sequence. It's no wonder nothing meaningful happens, I'm sure Douki-chan is indeed, doing her best, but she's got such a short window to work in lol. Come on, you're making a mockery out of short anime here... For the first eight weeks, we have the timid Douki-chan struggling to get her feelings across to no face senpai (you feel nothing for this dude, his whole thing is just being abashed all the time), either backing down or getting cucked by her two significantly bustier work colleagues. A frustrating and tiresome formula, you'd think some sort of development would have happened by now. Then episode nine rolls around and pretty much everything is forgiven, as we are treated to some lovely Douki-chan x Kouhai-chan yuri scenes and the main ship is swiftly forgotten, lost out at sea somewhere. Unfortunately, that ship is found again relatively quickly and it continues to play out the same regurgitated scenarios until the end of the series. To call this ecchi would be an insult to ecchi anime, there is next to nothing remotely ecchi in this series, so if that tag is what caught your attention initially (raises hand), then prepare to be disappointed. They show some skin a couple of times, that's about it folks. That's as risque as it gets. I can't help but compare this to Senpai ga Uzai Kouhai no Hanashi, a show that also aired side by side, a vastly superior full length anime also revolving around the relationship between a Senpai and Kouhai. Everything seems to fall flat in comparison especially the characters and their relationship dynamics they have going on. Just go watch that instead.

Douki-chan is an honest lady. She fell in love with hentai protagonist Douki-kun one day, now struggling to keep her feelings in check. Each and every one of her days follows her relationship with Douki-kun and the mad forces of evil who dare separate her from her beloved, namely Senpai-san and Kouhai-chan. Sometimes these days are a little raunchy. Sometimes these days are fluffy. Sometimes the odd event can happen. It's a very simple story. An honest tale with very believable circumstances and people. They make do with life, have fun, and get to where they wish to be. Whether that is with a significant other, or justa good night out. All of which looks good, like, meticulously good. Character design, animation, all that, *chef's kiss*. It is an incredibly well-made product which in turn led to optimal enjoyment other anime don't utilise as this anime did. So I recommend this one a lot. Whilst it did quickly fall into mediocrity a few times, you can't lie that for a short anime it hits well. So 9/10 sounds right.

After dozens and dozens of dull and trivial anime seasons, the time has finally come: the time when a masterpiece of jewelry, a hidden gem of animation is released the entire anime industry is shaken to its very core. The piece of work that made such a seldom thing possible is nothing other than the follow-up to the Japanese Magnum opus from 2019 (time sure flies, doesn't it?), Miru Tights. Yes, you heard it right. Everyone's favourite artist, the madman, Yom himself, is making a comeback with a new short animation series based on his unique drawings. Fallen from the sky, the guardian angel thattakes care of us during our stressful weeks, the true definition of "saving grace", "Ganbare, Douki-chan". Directed by the same man who worked on the worlwide hit, "Rent-A-Girlfriend" and not scripted by Fumiaki Maruto anymore, I was curious, but concerned about the series not being on par with Miru Tights. However, I was pleasantly surprised, since, despite in a different fashion, it delivered. Story & Characters: While Miru Tights focused more on everyday situations from different characters and scraps of connections through the storylines, Ganbare, Douki-chan hazards- and succeeds, with a single storyline that involves multiple characters. Miru Tights showed eros in a distinct way, through moments of silence, whispering and gently showing us the otherwise unshowable truth, whereas Ganbare, Douki-chan has a more light-hearted atmosphere that makes it a more relaxed, yet equally as charming, watch. The series talks about our unclearly named adults and their daily adventures in the workplace. The main girl, Douki-chan, has a crush on her co-worker, but, hindered by her insecurity and her shyness, she struggles to confess her feelings. To make 'it' even harder, two other ladies, Kouhai and Senpai, who have the hots for our lucky man as well, are introduced in the anime. While Douki-chan is shy when it comes to her emotions, Kouhai is very straightforward, maybe way too much, but that's up to you. Senpai, on the other hand, is the very image of the sexy and flirty office lady everyone would fall for. You name it! All these damsels together form a charming trio that is guaranteed to keep you glued to the screen. What's to be praised when it comes to this anime and its colleague Miru Tights is its begging to differ from the stereotypical and boring mainstream Ecchi anime. While the latter ones throw the girls' dignity away for the sake of the Harem factor, Yom's superb works don't disrespect or generalise the female gender. Instead, they provide women empowerment through representations of strong ladies. Art & Music: Even though Ganbare, Douki-chan doesn't contain the multidimensionally animated tights that characterised its spiritual predecessor, it is still perfectly animated and emphasises the heart of the matter, and that's what we care about. Simple doesn't mean shallow. Rather, spontaneity can lead to the most brilliant ideas. The soundtrack is pretty straightforward and makes us focus on the visual aspect. Like Miru Tights, the series knows what we want and goes straight to the point, no opening theme is needed. However, the heartwarming ending theme pleases us with the cutest and most beautiful shots. Also, it teaches its watchers the millenary, yet always current, saying that patience is a virtue. The end can be a new start as well, and Ganbare, Douki-chan tells this by integrating other precious scenes and, on top of that, a unique background to prize the virtuous ones. Final Thoughts: "Ganbare, Douki-chan" didn't disappoint. On the contrary, it's another piece of art that gives us hope regarding the future of our beloved Japanese animation. Plus, its context can favour employment, since it gives its viewers the aim to become like Douki-kun, our hero without a mask. By giving our best into what we do, life can grant us unexpected gifts. It costantly involves its watchers through the everlasting question: can Douki-chan make her wishes come true? And we, as fellow human beings, need to support her: "Ganbare, Douki-chan!"

As one of 2021's short anime ends, we're wondering as to wtf about this anime, so: ........ Spoilers........Possible. Story: Pros: At first we're made to believe that this will be a very naughty short anime as we're presented with some ecchi that something was about to happened between Douki-Chan and Douki-kun, when we see some of Douki-chan's fanservice, but, alas.... Cons: After that, everything goes downhill as we see Douki-chan having to face some competition with Koihai-Chan for Douki-kun's affection and as it progresses Sempai-san get's into the picture, TBFH, the story itself was just tad cheesy.Verdict: 3 over 10. Art: Pros: Douki-Chan in her red underwear and the quintessential swim suit services. Cons: Not nipple flash and no fanservices from the female characters. Verdict: 7 over 10. Sound: Pros: No comment. Cons: I just don't give a fuck as to who did who , but I do hate the ending theme. Verdict: 4 Over 10. Character: Pros: Ok, we have Douki-Chan being this mediocre kind of OL, who has some romantic crush on Douki-san, we also have Kohai-Chan who is your typical office bitch and Sempai-san who is your typical office cougar and Douki-kun who is the center of attention.....The problem.... Cons: Douki-Chan like Douki-Kun but doesn't make an effort to be direct with Douki-kun, even though Douki-kun on several occasion has already express his interest on Douki-Chan, but let's not forget that Douki-kun also has some problems of his own given that he himself hasn't been totally honest about his feelings with Douki-chan as we see him allowing himself to be constantly cornered by Kohai-Chan and Sempai-san... so basically Douki-Kun can be classified as a typical harem guy with a harem that he doesn't know what to do. Verdict: 3 Over 10. Enjoyment: Pros; As usual I'll be saying that , there were some episode that were enjoyable, but.... there were some just worth skimming Cons: There were some just worth skimming and that finale, was just a big disappointment. Verdict: 6 Over 10. Overall: Verdict: 7 Over 10. Don't even think about adding a 2nd season, studio AtelierPontdarc.... Merry Christmas........

I don't watch explicitly ecchi titles all that often, because usually they have something lacking about them, be it story, sound, or something else that it's attempting to hide behind scantily-clad anime girls. However, that is not the case with Ganbare Douki-chan. This anime is a raunchy little romantic comedy that somehow feels wholesome, even with all its cleavage, upskirts, and borderline workplace harassment directed at our faceless protagonist by his three eager suitresses, one younger, one older, and one his age, all competing for his affections at every opportunity. The story is the strongest aspect of this anime, as it manages to explore thisrather complicated situation in a way that is not only relatively believable, but also fairly mature and tender, as each girl reckons with her feelings for the man that has each of their affections. The art is strong, with good character designs and subtle cues as to who's who, skillfully illustrating the aspects of the younger, older, and main girls through the way they dress, act, and hold themselves. Obviously, it is also important to consider that this is a tiddy anime at the end of the day, so if the art was bad the show itself would have a lot of trouble, too. Even so, I am impressed with the amount of nuance on display here, especially with the subtle expressions of nervous affection from the titular girl, Douki-chan. The sound is good, meeting all the basic standards of quality, though the voice work deserves particular praise, able to convey joy, hesitation, and emotional dialogue at a breath. The characters are also strong, but of them my favorites are of course the main ship, Douki-chan and Douki-kun. She deserves him the most, I believe, since the two of them reflect each other's honest, somewhat anxious, yet distinctly good-hearted attitudes about life and even the prospect of each other being in love. It is just so wholesome and grounded in such a way that is surprising from a vanishingly short ecchi title. Overall, Ganbare Douki-chan stands out among the ecchi crowd as something with a little more to offer, that I believe is well worth your time.
