Ikki Tousen - Legendary Fighter (Vol. 1) + Series Box description
Adapted from Yuji Shiozaki's manga Battle Vixens, Ikki-Tousen focuses on a war among Fighters, high school students who wear comma-shaped amulets that contain the souls of ancient Chinese warriors. It's a complicated and somewhat muddled set-up for a simple-minded fan service series. Hakufu comes to one of the warring schools to join her well-intended, long-suffering cousin, Koukin. Although her chest measurement is larger than her IQ, Hakufu is the reincarnation of the fiercest warrior; she jiggles her way through battles with students from her own school and others with a dim-witted good cheer. There's a mean-spiritedness to Ikki-Tosen that Real Bout High and Steel Angel Kurumi avoid. But storytelling and good taste clearly aren't the hallmarks of a series where even the title cards after commercial breaks include panty shots. (Rated 16 and older: violence, violence against women, brief nudity, risqué humor, alcohol use) --Charles Solomon |

SHE WANTS TO DEFEAT EVERYBODY
|
Hakufu Sonsaku has arrived in Kanto to find she's in her element. Academies and schools are battling to control the most territory with fighters knocking the snot out of each other not only against other schools but to establish each institution's own inner hierarchy. These young high school kids are actually the reincarnated souls of ancient Chinese warriors whose fate it is to battle through the ages. Hakufu's immediate goal is to become the top fighter at her school, and then the whole country. But after kicking a half-dozen butts she comes up against a wall in the form of Gakushyu, one of the "Big Four", a group of super-fighters that rule over the school. She'll have to unlock the soul of one of the greatest warriors of all time, Shou Haou, if she hopes to become top dog. She won't be alone. Hakufu has the help of her cousin Koukin, whose quiet reserve hides his fighting prowess and his fierce desire to protect her from others and from Hakufu's own reckless wildness.
If you're looking for Shakespearean writing, you've come to the wrong place with Ikki Tousen. This show is all about fighting and fan service, with bouncing boobs and booty and panty shots! It has more of a sexy edge to it than Tenjho Tenge, which seems to revel in violence and sadism. Ikki can be over the top with all the villains licking their weapons in their best malicious evil imitations, but overall the naivete of the main characters Hakufu and Koukin give it an innocent charm. It will be interesting to see if someone as dumb as Hakufu will be able to outwit and outfight the best fighters in the land. Overall, this first volume was brainless but entertaining. |
