The story is average, but the anime is worth the money
|
The story basically revolves around 6 dominant school in and around Tokyo, Japan, where gangs and stables rule schools and battle each other to prove who's the king of it all. Pretty imaginative and a pop-cult adolecent fantasy if you think about it, but then again, there's a twist - they all have avatars that once belonged to legendary warriors in the Sangokushi era. The avatars give them each unique powers and fighting abilites.
Ikki Tousen - Battle Vixen is about a girl called Sonsaku Hakufu who transfers into one of the 6 dominant academies and quickly sparks unwanted trouble with her untamed power. She just so happens to be the most powerful fighter while at the same time being the most dense. She battles against some of the academies' top fighters, eventually forming an unlikely friendship with the Big 4 - a foursome of powerful fighters residing in the academy she's in - and uses her avatar to battle "evil" and perverts. There's tons of colorful characters and the episodes are mostly containing flashbacks to illurstrate the characters further.
Whether or not the show will pick up for another series is bewildering, but what you have here is a mild story anime with plenty of sexual refrences and the most unlikely protagonist in anime history. It's worth recommending if you're a fan of shows like Full Metal Panic/Fummofu/Alchemist and Gantz. Overall, this anime is entertaining and basic. It's no Cowboy Beebop or Ghost in the Shell, but if you're looking for teenage humor and martial arts, purchase this product. |
