User partysmores (Score: 6/10):
Glad to know I'm not the only person who's heard of this! I found this series while roaming Viki.com. It seemed to be very unpopular, with the only comment being a person asking if the show was for kids or adults. Lucky for me, it was English subbed...not a masterpiece, but glad I found it STORY: 6/10: It may not be something totally unique (parody anime are everywhere nowadays), but it's still a fun poke to the stomach at crazy otakus. ART: 4/10: One of the problems in the series is the fact that what could be a kids show is weighed down by unnecessary, detailed nudity.The art itself is decent, but really, why fan service and nudity on a cast that seems wacky but innocent?nnSOUND: 8/10: There is some fairly good music sprinkled throughout the series.nnCHARACTER: 7/10: Our main girl here is a crazy otaku who spends all of her time watching anime and cosplaying, which is certainly a lot of fun to see. The supporting characters are also fun.nnENJOYMENT: 7/10: I enjoyed watching this series and was considering subtitling it for other languages to enjoy before I remember the only things I'm fluent in are English and some basic Japanese.nnOVERALL: 6/10: Would've given 8/10 if it weren't for the unnecessary nudity.
