Aoharu x Kikanjū

Note: Since the anime is still ongoing my ratings and what I think about the anime might change once the anime is completed. But here is what I personally think about it soo far.

Summary: 

The story follows the main character Tachibana Hotaru, who has the appearance of a boy but is actually a girl (not much of a spoiler as it's explained in the first 5 mins of the first episode or so). Hotaru then moves into a new apartment and encounters one of her neighbours Masamune Matsouka. Her friend explains that she spent her money because of a host who turns out to be none other than her neighbour Masamune Matsouka. After losing a battle with him and completly trashing the host club Tachibana finds herself in Matsouka's debt and the only way she can repay that debt is to play Survival Games.

Characters: 8/10

Main:

Tachibana Hotaru: Hotaru is a high school girl who likes to fight for justice and acts like a knight in shining armour who dwells against evil. At first she was sceptical about playing in the Survival Games, but then later on she finds out she quite enjoys it.

Masamune Matsouka:  Matsouka is a host and is portrayed as a cheerful guy, later on in the story we find that he has a fear of someone and that he too has his dark moments. He is also the leader of Toy☆GunGun

Yukimura Tooru: Yukimura is a manga artist (adult manga artist) who’s a pervert but quite loyal to Matsouka, Yukimura is quite protective over Matsouka as he doesn’t want to see his close friend get hurt again. He is the sniper for Toy☆GunGun

Supporting Characters:

Akabane Ichi: She is a member of Team Hoshishiro who have been 4 time TGC Champions and is the sniper of the team.




Fujimoto Takatora: Fujimoto is from Team Hoshishiro and is nicknamed the "Assault Destroyer" because of his ability to wield a heavy minigun as well as being known to destroy his enemy easily before they can even shoot. Like Yukimura he is protective over Midori and is seen as a scary person but he in fact is quite sweet and loving.

Midori Nagamasa: Midori is first introduced as a sort of gentleman and is quite kind to others, but he seems to have sort of bipolar moods where one minute he's nice and the next minute he takes on a slightly sadistic attitude especially towards Matsouka. He is also the leader of Team Hoshishiro




Yajima  Kanae: She is Hotaru's friend and is aware that she is indeed a girl.

Art: 10/10

The art is quite refreshing and nice, I love the style of it and the scenarios also work well with the characters.

Story: 8/10

The story is quite simple Tachibana finds herself playing Survival games with team Toy☆GunGun and is constantly mistaken for a guy even by her team mates. The only problem she’s facing is that she can’t tell them that she’s a girl, why? Because no girls are allowed in Toy☆GunGun. 

Sound: 9/10

The sound effects used in the anime fit quite well with the action and get you immersed into the world that the anime takes place in, Sometimes it even puts you on the edge of your seat and make you want to join in the action.

I also enjoy the opening song "The Bravest Destiny" sung by the main characters themselves, although with an anime like this I would expect a JRock song, but I still quite enjoy it and sing along.

Enjoyment: 9/10

Overall: 8.5/10
