    This special series are only 10mins/each. They're totally not story related and- oh, wait! They have no story at all! It's just 6 characters from Maken-Ki! teaching you body excercises (1girl/episode) and its just bunch of uncensored pantyshots, cleavage shots and in the end topless shots. If you were raging out from ridiculously high censore in Maken-Ki! then you can have your time here but this specials are on the border with hentai...

    Pros: +Cute anime girls +Everything's a fanservice shot +Decent animation loops and good stills +You don't have to pay attention because there's no story Cons: -There are only six episodes These specials do exactly what they set out to do. Each episode is just a compilation of fanservice shots of one of the girls. This is generally what's done with blu-ray specials for ecchi shows like this. If you watched this show purely for the fanservice—or if you just want more than what the show gave—these are worth a watch or two or more because they bring even more sexuality into an already sexualized cast.
