Himegoto (TV)

Genres: comedy, romance
Themes: cross dressing

Plot Summary: A story about a cute high school boy forced to cross dress in a school where more than a few boys cross dress. Traps everywhere. In easy, 5-minute doses.
----------------------------------

I couldn't find a forum thread on this anime so I thought I'd start this one. Is anyone besides me willing to admit they are watching this? It is actually pretty amusing at least once per episode and if you like that kind of fan service it serves up a fair amount.

CR link.

Episode 8: Wait, he's spoiler[learned to enjoy it]? Uh oh.

yes, I am watching this. It's incredibly stupid, but it's only a couple minutes long, and mildly amusing.

I'm watching it too. Thought there really isn't that much to say about it.

Traps are the best. Although I wasn't expecting those crotch shots.

I've been watching this too. But like what was just said there really isn't much to talk about in the show. I'm just glad that so far it has been able to remain humorous so far. I had thought that the whole trap concept was gonna get played out rather quickly, but they have been doing a good job with it.

Lol, the troll OP song was funny.

Ah this show....
It's only 4 minutes but I bet to that trap, every minute feels like an eternity.

We get those kind of shots all the time of girls so I guess its only fair. Even with that I have to wonder exactly who exactly is the target market for this. Girls like this? Gay guys maybe? Guys who want to be submissive? Straight guys who will get turned on by pretty much anything? Who knows -- it's still funny somehow.

Thanks to whomever fixed up my opening post.

All Otokono manga(/anime, but this is the only one its genre) are aimed at the male audience. Its even defined(the genre) that way.

Anyone who likes cute boys.

The audience mostly lies in bi men, but there are girls into it as well, I think the author of Himegoto is actually a chick. In any case I see girls reblogging the ecchi shots of this show a lot on Tumblr.

And...uh, yeah. I don't think I need to state if I'm watching this or not.

Episode 11

Until the bit of fan service I nearly completely lost track of which characters were boys dressing as girls. I think this show is at its nadir -- pretty much exhausted its limited subject.

I think it was until recently that most girls in the show were actually guys, I was kind of surprised in the other episode there was more than the 3 we usually see.

Oh man I forgot about this show since my computer busted... I think I have a whole 9 minutes to catch up on... (these thing are like 3-4 minutes)

One thing I have been wondering... is if that maid that hangs around the Morals Committee "chick" (I think that's right) is also a trap or a true blue female.
