Kampfer

[Rodney]

But he's not embarassed about the being a girl part but rather the random stuff he's put through

Considering the amount of embarrassing situation he's put through, it makes sense that the few moment he is in a normal situation he seems not embarrassed.

Anyway, the genderbending is only an intrument to create embarrassing situation which lasts longer on screen than a few minutes (example : a guy is usually kicked-out quickly from a bath-house, even in a harem anime) and offer pleasing visual of girl on girl, kissing or eating pocky.

I can understand you expected more from it Nikkou, but I'm afraid the powerfull sociological statement about gender roles, human relationship and the meaning of life I was hoping for will have to be found somewhere else.

Anyway, what did you think about Sakura's seduction scene while watching the fireworks, I found it amasing how they created fear and a sense of something wrong with very few actor movement. It was quite scary.

(( she makes 'girl' sound like 'weak prey', yet Natsuru get powers only by being a girl, how paradoxal ))

I'm pretty sure Eirien wants to ban all people who enjoy Kampfer...so...*looks over the thread*

[Mitera Nikkou]

Don't look at me. I'm just taking what I can get of a rare commodity. Sucks it had to be roped together with the harem genre, though, but eh.

[Queen Octavia]

Goodbye, cruel forums!

*Exeunt left with a Kampfer DVD in hand*

;p

On the topic of things which haven't been said about it, I'm quite fond of the song at the end. I don't normally go for the catchy, but this one ensnared me!

....wow Nikkou is going to hate Episode 11.

[Lioconvoy]

I enjoy only the Manga, the Anime is pretty much trash.

Wish I could read the two Light Novels I have.

[Alexis]

...seriouly it will cause a Nikkou Frenzy..

[Lioconvoy]

It that as bad as 10? Cause despite the "plot" ten was pretty bad.

11 has slightly more plot. But ti also has Fanservice power up and the most harem anime love speech ever.

Episode 12 looks like it will be even worse.

[Lioconvoy]

Again, I hate the Anime....

[Alexis]

Again, I hate the Anime....

I think its a pacing issue vs actually having a different story. I think all the parts are going to show up in the Manga(including the fan service) its just better paced.

[Lioconvoy]

We'll see. The whole Bra issue was faster in the Manga, and it was an extra. Some of the other things if they are in the Manga may not be as big.

As I said I think its a pacing issue rather than they completely rewrote it.. so fanservice powerup is probably in there as is the reason why there can't be male Kampfer... and the choice.

[Mitera Nikkou]

...seriouly it will cause a Nikkou Frenzy..

*Halfway through the episode*

Ah, clear skies...~

*The final part of the battle*

...

Must resist...

*After the battle*

...

...

*I proceed to bang my head against the wall until I slip into a coma*

My main problem with episode eleven was how terribly abrupt the fight scenes were. The whole show in general is rather abrupt. But that battle royale was just painfully short. The scenes where everyone switched to kampfer form were really good though. The part where they powered up wasn't though.
