Summer2010 First Ep Reviews: Mitsudomoe, Seitokai Yakuindomo, Shufuku no Campanella

So to kick off the first episode reviews are the three anime: Mitsudomoe, Seitokai Yakuindomo, and Shufuku no Campanella.  Style-wise I will be rating each anime from 1-10 as usual, perhaps with some odd ratings consisting of words over 10, which will go on to a brief on my thoughts of each first episode.


Mitsudomoe
rating: 7/10

Mitsumodoe appears to be an anime about a set of triplets, Hitoha, Mitsuba, and Futaba Marui, and their 6th grade teacher, Satoshi Yabe.  At first glance, you might just brush that off as being somewhat stereotypical or already done, see Kodomo no Jikan, however, then you find out about the three sisters' strange traits.  Hitoha reads pornographic literature, Futaba is a perverted yet super strong girl, and Mitsuba has a penchant for sadism.  All the while, Yabe is trying to cope with their complete oddity.  Personally I found this anime pretty fun and I am somewhat likely to continue since I do not see any chance of say loli tendencies, just strange comedy made stranger by little kids.  I'd say that the weirdest thing about the animation is that they look like hamsters with their teeth like that, but oh well.  The OP is a bit on the squeaky side, not to my taste but the ED is actually pretty decent and mellow.  Well, here are your pictures.  If you can't make sense of them, watch the anime and see.









Seitokai Yakuindomo
rating: 7/10

Continuing along the vein of perverted comedy, we have Seitokai Yakuindomo.  We get a pretty generic plot, guy gets thrown into a school that used to be girls only but just recently became co-ed.  We then meet the student council who promptly gets said guy, in this case Takatoshi Tsuda, to join as say...vice president on the all female student council and we continue on with the anime.  Interestingly enough, we do not see much of a chance of romance in the first episode, but who knows.  As for comedic style, it is mainly made up of short punchline type gags, which is in a sense a bit refreshing, but maybe that's just me.  The OP is kinda catchy and is definitely tailored to the anime and the ED is by angela with a more pop sound, still pretty interesting though.  Chances are pretty high that I will continue watching this one since well...I like comedy animes and this one was pretty funny, if a bit on the dirty side.








Shufuku no Campanella
rating: 3/10

So, this anime is based off of a Japanese ero game and personally, I kinda wish I didn't watch it.  I found myself wondering, why do people like things like this?  Oh and another note, I will note put up pictures for anything I rate below 5/10 because it's a waste of my time.  Well, I suppose you want an actual review.  Meh, I'm too lazy to do one.  Plus, it appears that even my computer doesn't like it.  I can't open the file anymore apparently.  Divine intervention perhaps? and no I am not a religious person.  Anyways, if you want an actual review head over to animenewsnetwork.com where you will see equally bleh reviews.  With that, that's all for this post, stay tuned for more reviews in the coming days.
