Sep 20, 2019 Zerity Recommended At the start of this series after finishing the first episode I will admit I found it dumb and cringy, but as I kept on watching it the series grew on me in a way I never thought it would. What to me seemed to be the start of a melodramatic series became something wholesome, relatable, hilarious, and down right awesome. While watching this series each episode felt like a roller coaster. During one moment im laughing my ass off or cringing from how I felt like this before to then being in awe of what would happen next. I was felt with great ... Read more Open Gift Report
Sep 20, 2019 ACasualViewer Recommended In a season stacked with big Shonen shows, all with high production values and great advertising, alongside many sequels and the usual isekai spam, it is easy to overlook true gems. Maidens in your savage seasons is one of those easily overlooked gems. At first glance this anime looks a lot one of those basic Ecchi shows that just focuses on lewd dialogue, sex jokes, and random sexual shots of girls and boys inadvertently walking in on each other undressed. However, this show differs in that it does all of this with exceptional dialogue and execution, it is the difference between some basic otaku pandering Ecchi ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jul 27, 2019 ttmeng Not Recommended Preliminary (4/12 eps) If Mari Okada had written a Spring Awakening of high school girls that look like they're fresh out of middle school. If that isn't cringey enough, one of girls tries to make a move on their teacher. The idea and premise sounds good for the high school genre as most of the stories out there seem too wholesome, but the dialogue and character interactions are too cringeworthy and borderline overly dramatic. Neither the dialogue nor the character interactions seem believable, like the two girls who have to constantly exclaim "Tomo!" meaning true friend multiple times in one episode. I went in thinking it would have ... Read more Open Gift Report
Sep 20, 2019 Stark700 Recommended If you take a teenage soap opera, add some sex jokes, and make an anime version out of it, the result would be something similar along the lines of Araburu Kisetsu no Otome-domo yo. It goes without saying the show appears to be a clichéd romantic drama about teenagers growing up. The journey to growing up isn’t without obstacles and for the Literature Club, they learn that the hard way. While the opening minutes of the first episode doesn’t seem too unusual, the second half of the premiere may change your mind. It’s not every day we get to see a guy getting caught masturbating in ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jul 27, 2019 SegiMan Recommended Preliminary (4/12 eps) While there were only 4 episodes out at the time of writing this, I wanted to make a review to get people to give this a try. With a lot of good anime coming out this season it's easy to skip this one, but that would be a big mistake in my opinion. So lets dive into it. Story 7/10 The basic story isn't that special if you really think about it, but the way it's executed makes it special. It's about five girls in a literature club who stumble upon an erotic book and start discussing it, but they all lack experience in that regard. It ... Read more Open Gift Report
Sep 20, 2019 SingleH Mixed Feelings Mari Okada is an extremely controversial anime writer for reasons both obvious and inarguably deserved. The main complaint most everyone cites with her scripts are her characters being utterly non-relatable and overemotional. Often times their emotional reactions to certain events are outright far fetched, and moreover, they’re hyper-passionate about things no actual person would be so with. Screaming, crying, wailing, and flailing all their merry way, Okada’s characters always loose me and many other viewers because we cannot find ourselves within them at all, but while many of us feel the need to critique her writing, there was this one time I read something someone ...

Jul 28, 2019 abrzaky Recommended Preliminary (4/12 eps) Story 9 First of all I want to say that this review score is based on the animes I have been watching this season. And I do not give 10 because 10 is for perfect and there is nothing perfect in the world. (We are in the world are trying to become a perfect but we can only be close-to-perfect, not perfect itself) Read more Open Gift Report
Dec 22, 2022 RebelPanda Not Recommended When we’re young, love and sex seem larger than life—it is the most embarrassing thing imaginable. Maidens of the Savage Season captures all those emotions in the most melodramatic way possible. It skips all of that pesky build-up, the characters are stereotyped, it’s oftentimes predictable, and so what? Who cares about all that crap when it’s so damn entertaining? Melodrama is what Mari Okada is known for, Araburu Kisetsu no Otome-domo yo is no different. Anything she writes that isn’t edited heavily by a director will surely be overflowing with melodrama. She’s an ambitious writer, however, she stuffed far too many ideas into this show. ... Read more Open Gift Report
Sep 20, 2019 ExemplarCayman Recommended "It fit." Have you heard about drama anime’s lord and savior Okada Mari? Here’s a blitz version of what matters: she’s an r/raisedbynarcissists hikikomori turned acclaimed scriptwriter who keeps adapting her own life into anime scripts. And this makes her works divisive, because her life was so rough and tumultuous that sheltered middle-class snowflakes who never lived through any hardships and have no real life experience find it “overblown” or “melodramatic”. The bottom line is, she writes some of the best human drama in the medium, and Savage Maidens is the best one of her works to date. The series is a dramedy about five high-school girls ...

Sep 20, 2019 Tinybox Not Recommended Adolescence is no uncommon stomping ground in the anime world. The pairing of high school and romance isn't exactly particularly new and exciting either but fear not, Mari Okada has arrived to crank the drama into levels never before seen. On a more serious note however, the themes presented in the earlier episodes of the show actually were engaging and interesting. Sex is a touchy subject, especially in the heat of your youth. Having a positive outlook toward sex encourages a more thorough understanding of it. Araburu handled this quite appropriately when the girls were beginning to express they had thought about physical contact and intimacy. At ... Read more Open Gift Report
Sep 14, 2019 unablegoblin Not Recommended Preliminary (11/12 eps) This anime is just a mess, the story, the character, the art is a feeling mess! the color theory on this anime is throw out of the windows ( i thought it was my notebook but no) the story is so cringed the way the characters are set you have no real background story, there is no way a normal human girl would act like that I felt like was a 30 year old woman who never go to high school and maybe she never did for the one we see today. The love triangle and how one of the characters betray their friends, the ... Read more Open Gift Report
Sep 20, 2019 KANLen09 Recommended If there is ONE person to call out for this fine masterpiece of a work, it's gotta be Mari Okada. After her debut directorial flim that is Maquia: When the Promised Flower Blooms and SO MANY series compositions such as AnoHana, Hanasaku Iroha and Blast of Tempest (just to name a few), her debut manga series has not been well-hyped to a certain degree. Unbelievable, I know and understand that most of (if not everyone) is well aware of the usual shenanigans of Okada's works that always works wonders critically, in the face of absenteeism of something that doesn't click together. But on a basic ... Read more Open Gift Report
Sep 6, 2019 xGoldenDarkness Not Recommended Preliminary (6/12 eps) I'll make this review short and quick. I used to watch anime and no matter how bad they were I would finish them. I now feel my time is too precious to be spending on stuff I wont enjoy. Story: These 5 girls [except for 1] which you know nothing about all of a sudden have someone they are interested in because hey fuck it we need to force ... Read more Open Gift Report
Sep 8, 2019 1nvader Not Recommended Preliminary (10/12 eps) 2/10 reeks of School Days There's nothing else to say, really. It starts out as a comedy-drama and then becomes your typical overly dramatic drama, where every dramatic situation is a result of completely forced and illogical stupidity. Most dramas have this problem, where drama is created for the sake of creating drama, not because it makes sense. The characters make decisions that completely contradicts their earlier built-up personalities, regardless of whether you consider them thinking with their brains, or their genitals. E.g. (without spoiling much) like a high school boy suddenly wavering in his loyalty to the girl he confessed his love to, just because a ... Read more Open Gift Report
Sep 21, 2019 nanatshi Recommended i am just one form those brain dead people who enjoyed seeing everything maybe and i like this show so much because it's talk's about something that all teenagers have problem with and this thing is not knowing what is the difference between love and sex and i am too have the same problem , i just did'nt know the difference because i really watched a lot of hentai to be honest which leading to make it and what makes watching this show feels so good is that slice of life anime have a shocking moments and this is just amazing because it's really ...

Sep 20, 2019 LaLeLuLiLo Mixed Feelings Adolescence is a rather turbulent period for most people with all its conflicting thoughts and emotions. Considered too old to be treated as a child, but not old enough to be seen as an adult. An odd transitory road that many have to go through and along the way hopefully figure out who they are as they come of age. And it is that coming of age that really fascinates people and what many try to capture in their fiction. It’s a mode of story telling the begs for change and begs for development because it is what the characters are going through. Maiden of ... Read more Open Gift Report
Jul 29, 2019 Dr_Sephiroth Recommended Preliminary (4/12 eps) If a few months ago someone had told me that my favorite new series of the Summer season was going to be a slice of life series about five girls(and at least one boy) learning about sex, I would’ve raised a very puzzled eyebrow. I’ve enjoyed some very “sex educational” slice-of-life series before like Scum’s Wish or the more recent Domestic Girlfriend, but those kinds of shows had a much darker tinge that gave the innocence of their characters some engaging bit of edge. And yet, despite how innocent it is, Maidens of the Savage Season is shaping itself up to be a very mature ... Read more Open Gift Report
Sep 21, 2019 CastorKlapaucius Mixed Feelings If you were thinking this was going to be this embarrassing sexual-education type series (like Tsurezure Children which beats this show in every aspect) with a lot of humour and relatable situations then you're dead wrong. I'm not saying this should've been a hentai, that wasn't my expectation but when that charlatan Gigguk recommended this to me as an awkward shoujo about girls interested in sex, I thought it was going to be an awkward shoujo about girls interested in sex. The characters are absolutely trash. Read more Open Gift Report
Nov 3, 2022 LuketheDuke424 Mixed Feelings This anime is a very tricky subject. Anime is loved by all types of people from all walks of life, so often times the desires of the viewer can vary greatly. Araburu Kisetsu no Otome-domo yo is not like a typical shoujo anime. This show covers some seriously heavy subject material, so viewer discretion is heavily advised. That being said, for those who are open to a rather dark, intense look at the reality of the struggles of human adolescence will find one of the greatest stories ever told on the matter. This show is definitely not for everyone, but it has stories to tell ... Read more Open Gift Report
Aug 11, 2019 Ellenwitch Recommended Preliminary (6/12 eps) This was real different for me, and it may be for you. But that is what shines the most about it. That and it's realistic settings, as you can really relate to the characters, or their feelings shown thus far. It's not done over the top either. It's a well down to earth slice of life story, that really delivers in the best way possible in all honesty. The characters are all relatable as I've said. Which will add to your enjoyment, as being able to connect with a character is important, and they do this well here. Should you give it a watch? Yes! ... Read more Open Gift Report More Reviews |
