Review of AHO-GIRL
Oh man, where do I begin with this review because honestly, I do not know. Aho girl is something. Like I watched it because I was just curious about it. I mean an anime where the girl is stupid like EXTREMELY stupid and a childhood friend who has to deal with her. Sounds interesting at least. You can picture some crazy antics happening. I would have to say that this anime is mediocre at best. It is a comedy anime but the comedy it exhibits, are like one-liners and mainly has to do with something about love or sex. Or heck its both atthe same time. I guess it is okay to use those things a couple of times but to me, after a while, it got kind of old and cringey. I don't remember if I actually laughed a lot while watching this anime (mainly because I had to put off finishing this anime for a while because I was busy with school. Like I started during the summer but didn't actually finish it until December.)
STORY
Well, the whole premise of the story is that it is about a girl who is a complete and utter idiot and her childhood friend that has to deal with her. They are in high school and they meet other people and all that.
So because of a premise like that, you would imagine that there would be some weird antics that they get into. Well the antics they get into are in fact weird but they surpass weird. Like for me, it got cringey. Again tying with the fact that they used one-liners and jokes about sex and love. Another thing is that the anime relies a lot on intense movements (I guess that is how I can describe it) And at times it can be in your face. I don't know how to really describe it.
That is all I got to say. The story is meh. I mean every episode is divided into four parts and each part is dedicated to a different type of story so yeah...
CHARACTERS
Oh boy... Okay, I would have to say, the characters that I liked were Akuru (the childhood friend), Ruri (Akutsu's little sister), Sayaka (their classmate) and Dog. My ultimate favorite being Dog. Everyone else I thought was okay or I just didn't like them as much.
The main character Yoshiko, I will say right now, I did not like her that much. I mean okay she is a complete idiot (I mean the title is called Aho girl so yeah...). Actually, she surpasses the level of complete idiot. She makes complete idiots look smarter. Like she is so stupid, I am so surprised at how she is able to live for so long. Like how in the world did you get into high school??
Like I know she is supposed to be the gag character. The character that makes the jokes. She is designed to be the stupid character so that she can administer the jokes. But the things that she says and does, at first are like completely outrageous (well they are always outrageous) but it just gets to the point where I am cringing. I am just cringing at everything that she does.
I will give it to her that at some points that she makes a point. Like about how there is a limit to how pure a person can be in a relationship. I would have to admit she had a point. At some point, you have to do things like hold hands and kiss. Those "unpure" things. But other than that... honestly, I don't know.
And can I just say, am I the only one that feels very bad for Akuru? I mean he had to deal with Yoshiko's shizz for the longest time. I just felt bad for him to be honest. And I liked it whenever he punched or hurt Yoshiko. Because honestly if I had to deal with someone like that, I would probably do what he did. Like seriously.
ART
Art was okay. Nothing really special to be honest. Character designs were generic in my opinion. Nothing really stood out from the characters visually.
SOUND
Nothing really special about it. The score was eh. It was okay. Not bad but not that great either.
ENJOYMENT
Did I enjoy this anime? At some parts I did but others not really. Majority of the time I was either cringing, or I was just like meh. Just meh.
That is basically how I can describe my enjoyment. Meh. This anime was meh. To be honest, I was like pushing through to finish the last few episodes. And now I can say I have watched Aho girl.
