Minato Sahashi has failed the college entrance exam twice, but his life takes a lucky turn when a buxom girl falls out of the sky and lands on him...This ecchi comedy really was a great story, with high-power anime action and harem mayhem, and a dash of mystery in the blend to keep it interesting.

"Sekirei" - A Battle Royale with a Harem Twist

Story (6/10): "Sekirei" sets up an intriguing premise: a secret battle royale between super-powered beings known as "Sekirei" and their human partners. The story follows Minato Sahashi, an unlikely participant in this brutal contest, as he forms bonds with several Sekirei and strives to protect them from the ruthless organization that oversees the game. While the concept is interesting, the execution often leans heavily on fan service and harem tropes. The narrative does pick up in the later episodes, delving into the mysteries surrounding the Sekirei and their purpose, but it never fully realizes its potential.

Animation (6/10): The animation in "Sekirei" is decent, with well-choreographed action sequences that showcase the Sekirei's unique abilities. Character designs are appealing, and there's a good balance between action and slice-of-life moments. However, some viewers might find the excessive fan service distracting, as it occasionally takes precedence over the story.

Sound (6/10): The sound design in "Sekirei" is serviceable. The voice acting performances are generally solid, with the cast effectively conveying the personalities of their respective characters. The music complements the action scenes but isn't particularly memorable. The opening and ending themes are catchy and suit the series' tone.

Characters (5/10): The characters in "Sekirei" fit into well-established archetypes, which is common in harem anime. Minato is a relatable protagonist with a strong sense of justice, and his interactions with his Sekirei create some heartfelt moments. However, some of the Sekirei characters can feel one-dimensional, with their personalities often defined by their devotion to Minato. The harem aspect is a central focus, and while it provides moments of humor, it can overshadow character development.

Overall (5/10): "Sekirei" is an anime that combines elements of action, romance, and harem comedy, but it leans heavily on fan service and familiar tropes. The initial premise is intriguing, but it's not fully explored, and the story struggles to find a satisfying balance between its different genres. If you're a fan of harem anime with super-powered battles and don't mind fan service, "Sekirei" might provide some entertainment. However, it falls short of reaching its full potential. My overall score for the series is 5/10.
