Momo Kyun Sword (TV)

Plot Summary: Momoko is a beautiful young sword fighter who was born inside a peach (momo in Japanese). She lives with her constant companions—the dog god Inugami, the monkey god Sarugami, and the pheasant god Kijigami—in a peaceful paradise. However, a demon army led by devil king invades the paradise and steals the precious treasure that protects Momoko's land. To retrieve the treasure and save the people, Momoko embarks on a great adventure with her three companions.

Episode 1:
Eh, I was not very impressed with this. There were a lot of fan service. They spoiler[did introduce the majority of the characters] though and some action scenes were alright. I wonder who the strongest among those girls is though...maybe we'll see as more episodes are aired.

On another note, the fantasy atmosphere was tolerable I guess.

This is classified as fantasy.
I would not agree that it's only that.
All girls, prevy animals and lots of big boobs.
The girls seems to bespoiler[ shinobi] or something though.
Skipping this..

Episode 1

Wow, it is not often I can say this with such certainty, but that was actually so bad that it was kind of good. So many problems from fan service thrust into the audience's face, terrible/cliché dialogue, and things that don't quite make sense. Like spoiler[wood destroying a boulder], the divine people spoiler[being terrible for their job], and her getting embarrassed about her looks at times looks when she seems to dress incredibly skimpy.

This was laughably bad, and I am getting a little sick of the Peach thing in anime, yet some parts seemed strangely more genuine, I might actually watch more if I am up to nothing. Also one part with a boob bounce got me snickering for just how bad, it reminded me of some of the terrible things that came from independent boob bouncing physics of Dead Or Alive.

Fanservice show of the season is here. The censorship ruins it but they have to make money with the bd/dvd version. The story so far is very straightforward and it's disappointing how easily the Celestial Maidens lost to the big ogre. Anyways the show should improve with more characters joining.

That's exactly what I was thinking as the episode came to a close. The jiggle physics were a tad ridiculous at times... It seems they've replaced Momoko's and the others chest muscles with elastic bands. May aswell use them as a weapon instead. Rolling Eyes

Momoko also has the best/worst outfit I have seen in a while, depending how you look at it. I do like Ayana as a VA though, so I'll guess I'll stick with the show for the meantime.

Ep1 -

I'm going to pass on the rest of this one. I was considering just waiting for uncensored boobs but I don't think that's my entire problem. I just don't care about the cast and story. I'm not a fan of Japanese legends anyway so the Momotaro thing isn't winning any points with me and Momo getting all embarrassed when her outfit was wrecked was kind of boring since they're already hanging out.

well, this is exactly what I thought it would be, stupid. However, I'm totally ok with that, since I did find it amusing. I think I can keep watching

Not absolutely horrible, but in no way good. I like my fanservice a little smarter, and drawn better.

Plus, what is up with the bright rash on top of the breasts?
My first drop of this season.
