This show was totally not on my radar at the beginning of the Fall 2016 season.  After a few weeks, I've heard how fun this show was so I decided to take it up.  Thank goodness I did. Story So Keijo is a sport where sexy women in bikinis try to knock off one another off a platform floating on water with nothing but their butts or boobs.  The whole premise is absolutely ridiculous but everything else that happens is what makes it.  What I didn't expect is the ridiculous amount of techniques and super powers one can do with their ass or tits.  The moves keep escalating too.  Each week I keep saying that there's no way they could top the previous episode only for them to do so. Animation For the most part this was one of the big reasons why this show is so good.  The amount of detail and effort they put into it is more than it deserves.  The one bad thing about it though is that the quality took a severe nose dive in the final episode which really sucked.  You could really tell that it's different. Sound The music they put together for the show set the atmosphere.  With the premise of the show being silly you'd thing they'd play to that.  Nope.  They make the atmosphere feel like it's life or death and presented every battle such seriousness.  Sure it clashes but it's great.  Then there's the SFX for the action.  They're just silly but they still somehow add to the hype. Characters They had a decent size cast with the lead being Kaminashi Nozomi, whose goal is to become the highest earning Keijo player ever.  There feels to be something missing to why she's like that.  Also, every other character besides her is far more developed than her like her best buddy Miyata Sayaka, who quit judo despite being a top talent to be in Keijo.  If anything, she's the most developed (not physically) character in the whole cast including an intriguing backstory.  A lot of characters in general seem to be missing any sense of motivation as well. Overall As I said earlier, the thing this show does is escalate higher than you think it will.  I made the mistake a lot to think there was no way they could top the previous episode with the crazy powers they have, along with the funny naming, but they do.  Also the show is better than it really should be given the material.  It's quite becoming a cult hit already.
