THAT Animeblog

Yuri….Mariya and Shion yuri = awesome.

Man, Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru (gosh, such a long name) is really good, if only it can make its name shorter and easier for poor impzie to remember it. I mean, what’s wrong during this fall season. The summer season has generally been rather kind to me, having rather short names such as Aria, Bokura ga ita, Zero no Tsukaima and all the simple titles that can be easily remembered. Now, we have a dozen anime with names that are begging me not to remember them at any costs.

Oh well, anyway, I really like most of the characters in this series. Kana is cute. Mariya is just flirty hot. Shion is pretty upper class cuteness. Mizuho is just….wrong. That is because she he is really cute as a guy but he is more of an androgyous character.

Read on!

Episode summary

The first scene starts with Mizuho coming down to class and realises the existence of Shion, the black haired girl that had gone Gokigenyo on him while he walked past. As Mizuho opened his pencil box, he noticed a giraffe eraser that was planted by Mariya and started being sad as it was cute without any good usage. Shion then offered and exchanged their erasers. Mizuho was starting to think that Shion was a really high class lady that was really beautiful and a student that everyone would admire.

Mizuho then went to the toilet, rushing in to see if there was no one in the toilet. He could not control it anymore as he did his business. As he came out, Shion mentioned that he had left his zipper on as he checked. The scene was cut as we see Shion and Mizuho in a small clearing in a garden, as Mizuho was caught speechless as Shion revealed that she knew that he was a guy. Mizuho tried to explain the situation but he knew that the secret was out. Mariya came over and realized that Shion knew all about it and was shocked.

However, Shion said that she would not speak a word about it. Then they went on some drama to say how Mizuho was in fact bullying them, making Mizuho go all confused. They were simply joking, as they said that the environment in the school prevented her from enjoying herself with harmless jokes and she felt that she would be good friends with Mizuho. The population already realized that Mizuho and Shion were very close friends as they ate together with Kana and Yukari.

It was now time for the people to change for basketball lessons for P.E as Mizuho started blushing after seeing everyone in various forms of undress. As Mariya noticed, she started to feel Mizuho all around his chest (fake, remember) and he was starting to blush immensely from the touch. Shion also joined in. As they got out to the court, Mizuho was thinking about how breasts will really feel under the touch and started saying that he was thinking pervertly. The ball came to him as he dribbled well and got the basketball into the net. He was then shocked as it seemed that he was being too robust but everyone swooned and said that he was not only good in studies and looks, but also on sports.

News came around and he was mentioned by Kana, Mariya, Shion and Yukari that she should be an “elder”, a student that gets the admiration of everyone due to her all around personality and a role model for everyone. Mizuho mentioned that Shion should be one but it seemed that Shion had been retained for one year due to illness and she was in fact the elder. She always felt that she had let down everyone as she went to hospital soon after being elder.

As they came down, they met up with the student president of the school, and Mariya and her had a nice bitching session. It seemed that she was a bit annoyed at Mizuho’s rumors of being elder, as it seemed that she would be the one getting it if no one else was contesting the post. She also felt that Mizuho had only transfered recently and knew nothing about the school. With that, Mizuho started to think what in the world was going on.

Thoughts

Mizuho is really funny with her antics. He is still trying so hard to be a female and I really really like all the chibi forms that suddenly appear. They always make me laugh, especially with Mariya’s random chibi modes. It is fricking amusing and I think it is a big draw for me.

Other than that, a good few laughs and we realize one more girl knows about who Mizuho really is. I mean, i really wonder how he can keep the padding on all the time without it deforming whatsoever. Oh well, we would not know how and I clearly do not want to know as well.

All in all, funny stuff and I enjoy it, even thought it can be a bit ecchi at times. However, what is a school anime with a trap-san as a main lead without any ecchi? That will be really darn cute. Light hearted humor works, this might be a big success if it continues on its nice path.
