Girls Bravo 8/10

Since Girls Bravo is essentially a fan-service anime this is going to be a fan-service kind of review BUT to prevent unwanted nudity from blemishing your reputations, the GOOD pictures can only be seen by clicking the BORING pictures.

Girls Bravo ran for 24 episodes during 2004 and 2005. There are some good visuals here with pretty nice backgrounds and a lot of nice animation. The amount of jiggle in this show is impressive and luckily the character designs are really great. This is of course a must for a show that's pretty much wall to wall fan-service. The music is very good with some nice guitar, piano, and harp pieces and not much synth. The OP and ED change after episode 11 and while the first two don't really stand out I really like the second OP but the second ED isn't a real improvement. The VAs are very good and Miharu and Koyomi are stand outs.

Yukinari Sasaki is a shrimpy little high school student who's been picked on by girls so much that he's developed an allergic reaction to them. Enter Miharu, she's a cheery, ditzy, pink haired girl from the planet Seiren which is near Earth but unseen, though the residents of Seiren can see the Earth in their sky. She's been watching Yukinari her whole life through the water of her bathtub and one day he gets warped through his tub and into hers. It turns out that Miharu is the one girl Yukinari isn't allergic to and she likes him from the start so things begin looking up for him. Unfortunately he must quickly return home since he's being pursued by hoards of women (since there are few men on Seiren). He gets home but accidentally brings Miharu with him and the fan-service gets into high gear.

The various other girls are:

Kirie Kojima - Yukinari's childhood friend and of the busty, violent, tomboy variety. She REALLY likes Yukinari but can never admit it. She's usually on the receiving end of Kazuharu Fukuyama's sexual harassment and fantasies. He's the local perverted rich boy.

Koyomi Nanaka - She and a little girl named Tomoka come from Seiren to get Miharu. She's terrified of boys and cries a lot.

Lisa Fukuyama - She's Kazuharu's younger sister and studies black magic. She's a lonely girl who sets her eyes on Yukinari after he matches her dream man shown in her fortune telling.

Most of the episodes are just silliness with some excuse to strip the girls, have them jiggle around or both. There are some somewhat quiet episodes, each of the girls has one, so you get to know the characters a little more but who cares!? The series has an ending where Miharu gets abducted by the leaders of Seiren and it's pretty good but this show is about the comedy and the fan-service. Every episode starts with a shower/bath scene! The heroic amount of service really sells this show and the sexual humour is very good. Highly recommended if you like naked anime girls! Here are some more pictures!
