These harem plot lines have just become shameless.

Sadly part of me still wants to watch it.

You're not alone..."completionists" like me finish it without thinking otherwise even though I feel "guilty" about watching such shows. Though there are still some good harem shows being produced, but this one is just too much and too weird. What's even sadder is "Lelouch" plays the lead role.

I have to admit that I love ridiculous anime (Excel Saga FTW!) and Akikan! isn't really much of an exception. I'm a little sorry to say I really do hope they make a second season. Sekirei (it's like Poke'mon with giant boobs, actually rather good givin' the premise) got a second season so I don't see why Akikan wouldn't. ...Also I have a bit of a fanboy crush on Najimi Tenkuji Embarassed

One of the unwritten rules of anime: there's always a hot springs episode. Confused

This wouldn't bother me at if the women in the show were 18 or even older, but I bet they aren't.

This is why I usually don't tell people I am into anime, too much of this garbage and not enough intelligent series. Sickning if you ask me.

This show was good until episode 6. It was hilariously stupid, but also hilarious, period. Perverted Lelouch made me lol every time, and I liked how with all his sex jokes, there was absolutely no fanservice. However, then there was a pool episode, and then it was a SRS ROMANCE. If it continued to not take itself seriously, it would have been great.

Really? It's because of show like these is why I tell people that I'm into anime... I mean the majority I know, all think that anime is just for little kids, and usually when I tell people I'm into anime they automatically assume I'm a narutard, (Which I"m not, I hate that show) And I like to prove them wrong by showing them an episode of Strike Witches or Ikki Tousen... To show them that not ALL anime fans are narutards... Cool
