Review of Gushing over Magical Girls

Ah yes, the magical girl genre. A genre so wholesome and beloved, from classics like Cardcaptor Sakura to Madoka Magica. There's no way such a cute and wholesome genre can be hentaified, right? Well, Gushing Over Magical Girls is NOT your typical magical girl show if you didn't understand that bit. From the start, it lets you know that this is going to be vastly different than any other magical girl anime you've ever seen, and that's because this one is a fan service anime, and they let you know because it's ramped up by 10. Now, I'm a huge fan of the whole magical girlgenre, and it has been done very well in all of its different takes. You have the classic Sailor Moon, then you have shows like Magical Girl Site which represent the dark side of magical girls very well. There are also comedy takes, cute takes; basically, this genre has it all. And here comes Gushing Over Magical Girls, coming to do the never-before-done take on what this supposedly cute genre is about: ecchi and well, just basically fucking hentai, and I'm just like, "Wow." I'm like, "Wow," in the sense that this is as crazy as Inukai's Dog from last year, but this is 10 times worse.. but better at the same time.

This show follows Hiiragi Utena, and she's obsessed with magical girls in her town and wants to become one. One day, some Kyubey clone shows up in front of her and fulfills her wish of becoming a magical girl... except she's not; she's the one who goes against the magical girls. She obviously can't bring herself to kill them or really harm them that much because, you know, she adores them. So she does the second-best thing... sexually assaults them. I mean, this show has every hentai trope in the books, from vines, tentacles, you name it. Hell, there are even some unique ones poured in there here and there.

I will say the downside of this show is that these are kids... like MIDDLE SCHOOL KIDS... nope, not even your normal high schoolers from anime, middle schoolers. So anybody who's an adult watching this realizes this shit is over the top and weird. This is for, I guess, younglings, but still, I don't think they're supposed to be watching this at that age either. But it's still like, you should have made them adults instead of doing stuff like this because it's like when you're an adult, and you're seeing stuff like this, it's not that good. Though this is more of a show where you just laugh at how stupid it is and NOT to well, whatever you do to hentai.

And hell, if the AT-X/Reward version that's out for the masses is THIS wild, I could only imagine what Asahi Production has in store for the Blu-ray... and speaking of Asahi Production, the people behind the anime, the animation is actually really good. That's the upside about this; the animation actually looks really good. Onto why and how Japan allows and likes making stuff like this whenever we get fan service like this with minors... it's whatever, though.

But yeah, overall, what a way to start the year, man. We had three ecchi anime just this season alone, and this one is just the KING and epitome of degeneracy. Hell, man, I don't know how you top this. Safe to say that Gushing Over Magical Girls will be forever remembered as an insane anime; I don't even know how it passes as one and not a hentai. This show is just dumb fun to watch to pass the time, and maybe watch it with the whole family; maybe they'll like it or something, lol.
