DESCRIPTION

It's one thing to honor your ancestors and keep old traditions alive, but there IS such a thing as taking it to a ridiculous extreme. In Kawakami City, having a samurai ancestor and enormous 'fighting spirit' isn't just an interesting fact, it's a huge part of how you end up being ranked on the social totem pole. That, in turn, rolls over into the school curriculum. Fortunately, that's something the local kids like Yamato Naoe have learned to deal with by forming into small 'bands,' (that's the samurai type, NOT music). However, while the delicate sexual balance of Yamato's group seemed fine when there were three girls and four boys, the sudden addition of two MORE girls starts to send everything spinning out of control!

Majikoi: an anime adaption that fails to live up to the amazing visual novels that are its source material.
I love Majikoi. The vn has to be among one my absolute favourites alongside the Grisaia trilogy and any game made by Eushully (sadly none of those will ever get an anime adaption). Anyways, the anime for Majikoi was just... disappointing. They really failed to capture much of the art style of the visual novel, nor did they attempt to follow the story really. Someone told me the anime is set somewhere between the first game and Majikoi S, the well-regarded sequel. I suppose that allows for some creative liberty, but the anime fails to capture any of what makes the games so good. For example, yes, the main character, Yamato, is a bit of a pervert, but the anime just takes it to the extreme and has him straight up unzip his paints in front of one of the female characters. This never would happen in the game. Indeed, Yamato may make some snide comments about some of the friends he has, but he is constantly fending off the advances of Shiina and having to deal with Momoyo's... shall we say, direct form of tough love. Overall, it was disappointment. If you truly want to enjoy the Majikoi franchise to the fullest extent, play both the games. They're both long, feature tons of hilarious and touching moments. You'll really learn to appreciate the backstory for characters like Wanko (one of the character's nickname), Shiina, Yukie, Chris and Momoyo. The soundtrack is amazing and the story is hilarious. You'll be laughing basically the whole game long. And if you enjoy it, be sure to check out it's very well received sequel Majikoi S, as well as the 'A' series, which is a series of fan discs for the games and feature more routes. (The games literally read Majikoi A-1, Majikoi A-2). In summary, I would say, don't bother watching the anime for Majikoi. Save yourself the trouble and play the games instead. If you do end up watching the anime, prepare to cringe a lot.

I reviewed how great the adaption of Little Busters! was a few weeks ago, so I figured since I play a lot of visual novels, might as well start rating their anime adaption. So far, it's 1 great adaption and one that is very disappointing. I do not know which anime adaption of a visual novel I will review or when I even have the time to write them, but I hope my reviews are informative and give an honest reflection of how good the anime adaption of the given visual novel is. I think I'll return to reviewing more games by Key, including Re:Write, Air, Kanon (both series) and eventually Clannad. I think going by studio is much more useful for those reading reviews since it allows them to get a general understanding of how I compare the anime adaptions of visual novels created by a specific developer. Until next time.
