Review of Majikoi: Oh! Samurai Girls
"Damn it I'm so useless" Naoe, Yamato If you like seriously absurd comedies you might like this. Samurai Girls opens with a giant samurai era style battle, that's apparently how the school settles disputes. It's an absolutely hilarious send up of a couple of genres. It does an excellent job of roping you in. Unfortunately it's head and shoulders above everything that follows. It really should have been the final episode of the series and it would have actually been a better ending then the one it did have. After that first episode you get a bunch of garbage episodes that go no placetry to be funny and fail. They do flesh out the characters a bit unfortunately I wound up disliking almost all of them. I wound up disliking over powered girl, strategist guy, takes a lot of shit girl, perverted girl, perverted guy, stuck up princess girl, about the only one I didn't mind was comic relief German gir and Mtsukaze the talking horse keychain (Yes I can't remember their names)
After failing at comedy for a bit, Samurai girls shifts to some sort of fighting genre / commentary on Japanese politics. Not only isn't it funny anymore it's boring as hell. Imagine if Richard Spencer and Bernie Sanders decided to make cameos in spies like us to deliver policy positions, Nahh strike that, that would be hilarious and this stuff wasn't.
Then it ends. And if you actually care by that time well it's a miracle, but the ending will burn that out of you.
TL:DR Not fun, not enjoyable, too annoying to keep on in the background.
