Minami Ke - Why? The first season was so good...

by feal8720. February 2011 18:02

Hello again,

Let's continue with another review of a popular manga and anime that got well three anime season adaptation (had quite a success so I may even think that a fourth one may appear sooner or later).

It's name is "Minami Ke" and it's a slice of life comedy written by Koharu Sakuraba.

Minami KeMinami Ke

Let's start with a "synopsis" :

There are three of the Minami sisters: Haruka, Kana and Chiaki, who have an average life. The girls only have each other to depend on and help each other get through everything from love confessions to cooking.

Yes, I quoted the word synopsis as you can't expect much story from a pure slice of life series. The single stories presented in the series are quite cute and natural, but mostly funny! (Much like what you can see in GA Geijutsuka Art Design Class)

The three sisters are all quite cute and each one of them have a particular well defined character and behaviour. The minor character (if we can call them this way) are mostly funny and nice people that you'll end up liking a lot, sometimes even more than the main ones. (The scenes with Hosaka were the most funny likely!)

My favourite character of the series is obviously the little Chiaki, her behaviour ranging from cute to rebel is very funny to watch. (and well she's voiced from Minori Chihara that I like a lot as voice)

The graphical department unfortunately isn't very good. Apart from the first season (animated from Daume) that was quite good, the others are a massive failure of epic (yes baka-raptor, epic Cool) proportions...(write down asread in his black book)

In the last two season the animation is inconsistent and sometimes very crappy, in the second they even obscured everyone except the main characters giving off a terrible feeling when watching the series.

The seiyuu in this anime are fantastic, we have like I said before Minori Chihara as Chiaki, Marina Inoue as Kana and Rina Satou as Haruka and all three do a very nice job portraying the characters.

The opening and ending songs for all three seasons are pretty catchy and I found myself rewinding multiple times when watching episodes. Tongue out

Minami Ke

Concluding, this is a nice series for everyone to watch. It is funny, it has some great characters and does not get you bored.

It is also a nice pick to let someone start up with anime due it's very simple story and high replay value (the jokes are funny even after a couple of watch)

Minami Ke

This may have been a top anime series if it wasn't for, unfortunately, that crappy studio adapting the last two season.

That's all for now

Hosaka is Boss. I even memorized the Curry Song when it aired.

That was lol, the unstripping scene while hugging a live fish in the market was fantastic too.

The other two seasons aren't that bad. The only thing that bothered me is the way they changed our lovely protagonists' hair colors. Chiaki does not look good as a blonde. Good review yet again dood.

True, the change of color is one of the thing people first notice about the two new series.
