Such a bad anime. Mostly Reused animations, boring dialogue, boring premise, and fanservice is crap. I was expecting to see nice ass shots, but they kept focusing on her stupidly unrealistic tits. I like breasts as well, but they shouldn't be the only thing being shown. A female body is much more than a pair of breasts.
And the voice acting is terrible, she didn't even sound like she was exerting herself. This didn't appeal to my sadistic nature of wanting to see females suffer from heavy exertion (moaning, heavy breathing, pain, and all that good stuff) during exercise.
It's just boring

What kind of fetish is that?
Honestly, this anime remains one of the strangest experiences I've ever had watching a Japanese work. I can understand the premise, but that doesn't mean I can see any quality in it.
The idea behind Issho ni Training: Training with Hinako is extremely simple: to have the character Hinako perform physical exercises while the viewer takes on the role of her training partner. In practice, however, the anime seems much more interested in serving as material for a specific niche of fetishes than in actually functioning as entertainment, comedy, or even an incentive to exercise.
What bothers me most is that the work sells itself as ecchi, but does so in the most repetitive way possible. For almost the entire time, there is only one visible character on screen, per…

Maybe we're beholding one of the best examples of experimental anime.
At first sight, this OVA may seems a boring, stupid, full of fanservice animation, sure it is, but it has a weird charm that make you forget you're watching the same three scenes of abdominals, push ups and squads. Hinako has the typical anime girl attitude, and invites you to practice with her, talks to the camera and even gives you a kiss. This is the epitome of weeb culture, the reason why this page exists, the cute-girl-doing-cute-things at is maximum.
Of course, after some time with the same scenes it becomes a bit tedious, but then, Hinako's clothes change for a really cute underwear and then for some sports clothes. The fanservice gain a new level but the anime stays far from being vulgar or an almost-hentai an…

I'm guessing this was made to encourage shut-in viewers that physically let go of themselves over time. While at most this seemed to be a decent idea as inspiration for those people, over time I came to witness the unrelenting persistence and unwavering passion to lose weight that Hinako had possessed. At first, it seemed great, we even had decent angles to encourage us even more as we went through this adventure with Hinako, but as time passed it seemed Hinako's stamina was far beyond what I had imagined, even having the ability to switch her clothes in a short amount of time and keep going made me rethink everything I ever thought about my body weight and mindset. The ED was kind of confusing and seemed unrelated to the OVA as a whole.
At the very least this OVA is a revelation, and if n…

Man, this will make you work. I watch this quite frequently to get in some exercise in during the quarantine and let me tell you, I have seen some major improvements! I have went from 320 to 316 in a month!
But that is besides the point, the slight moaning when she works out really motivates me to keep going. The boob physics are A+ some of the best I have seen honestly, It just keeps my eyes glued to the screen the entire time.
I heavily recommend this if you want to lose some weight but can't keep you're eyes away from Anime for more than 3 minutes :D

Thanks to Akidearest who mentioned this anime, I managed to watch this properly
afterwards.
Honestly I've seen way better fitness anime than this utter crap and it even doesn't have to be in the late 2000s to have such crap dialogue involving a shrieking voice of an anime girl. No offense to Mai Kadowaki who voiced the character, I honestly think she shouldn't have played a young girl in this. I know it's not her fault for being part of this but whoever was more involved in creating the anime, didn't have their heads screwed on with realistic creativity. They could've at least tried to add other characters other than Hinako because then it mightve changed people's perceptives. Same time it might not have not made any difference, it's just rubbish anyways...
Yeah just don't watch this an…

In "Training with Hinako", Hinako was once a person, but somehow, she gets sucked into the TV and gets turned into an anime character. After noticing you watching her, she is surprised since she hasn't seen an actual person in a while. So she decides to interact with you, by calling you pudgy and saying that doing some training could help the both of you.
Sitting through this, I didn't expect it to have some actual plot. I was expecting the anime to pretend that you were friends with the cute girl who would like someone to train with because she secretly has a crush on you as well as you having a crush on her, or it being a training video with the trainer being something to look at while you're using this as the laziest exercise video in existence. Instead, Training with Hinako has this w…

Issho ni Training: Training with Hinako excels in every possible category that could be used to objectively rate it's competence as a form of media and I couldn't have asked for anything better. Hinako is a Grade S waifu with tons of personality, interesting development, and a unique design.
i watched for 9 minutes and got bored
10/10 rack and wrist exercise tho
best plot that i've ever seen
is this review long enough yet ok how long does this review have to be
I'm sorry MAL for going against guidelines a bit but this OVA was terrible and a waste of time.

Today, I decided to challenge myself.
I may have got an A in P.E. class last semester, but workouts bore me to no end. I can listen to music or browse the Internet on the treadmill, but sometimes I drop my phone and that's no fun. (Pretty sure I already broke the internal recording audio thingy from dropping it too many times.)
Suddenly, I had an idea. What if I could be more motivated to exercise if a cute anime girl would do it with me? I'd known about this "Training with Hinako" OVA for quite a while, and maybe it was the answer to my prayers.
I ate my pre-workout snack (cinnamon roll flavored protein bar) and eagerly clicked "Play".
STORY (4/10):
Training with Hinako's plotline is paper-thin - a girl named Hinako gets sucked into her TV one day and becomes an anime character becau…

I won't sugarcoat it: this is the worst anime, possibly the worst video ever, that I have ever watched.
Story-1/10
Training With Hinako is basically twenty minutes of watching the character's boobs bounce. So there isn't even a story anyway. Plus, this ONA is just repeated scenes of Hinako doing excersizes and the camera always shows her boobs or butt.
Art-3/10
The only reason I did not give a 1/10 for art is because all you pervs on this site might actually enjoy it. But, the only part of the art that the animator put effort in was the jiggly of her boobies. Anyway, most of the scenes are repeated but with different outfits.
Sound-1/10
The character has this high pitched voice that is even worse than Justin Bieber. It is sooo sugary, and my ears were like bleeding. Then, half the time…

Okay, what the f*** did I even watch? And why the hell should I write my first MAL review about this one? Well, maybe to encourage and embrace the idea behind this OVA.
So first the good point, as intimated: The idea. I like it when anime is also used as a medium for education or some other useful stuff. So giving some instructions on basic muscle training is a really good idea and I must say, as someone who does also work out, that the way Hinako did her training is quite accurate, for example how you do sit ups correct (don't use everything else than your stomach muscles!) and holding the head straight while doing push ups.
But well, thats it ... unfortunately, the focus often lies on some secondary sexual characteristics rather than on more details about the training techniques itse…

I really just watched this because I was bored, but then I was left laughing when I finished it.
To be honest, I don't really know how to describe this anime. It was very... educational... in terms of physical education, that is. It was also cute in a way. The ecchi was very evident, but once you get used to it, it's just a normal workout video. Is it a comedy? Is it an H video? I don't know!
First off, let's talk about Himeko, the anime character that every otaku would love as their training partner. Well, not that I would need one, but it just seems fun to see her be fully aware that she's an anime character. She's like the Deadpool of anime.
The background music also got me to move around a little, and it eventually led me to do the workouts as well. You can't have a workout video w…

( This is my first review >w< also, sorry for my bad english )
Isshoni Training... this anime scarred me for life..
The anime revolves around a 16-year-old girl named Hinako who was once human until she was transformed into an anime character when she was in middle school. Now she stars in an exercise video that teaches the audience how to perform push-ups, sit-ups, and squats cause she basically thinks you're too fat.
It started out pretty normal, Hinako starts exercising the first few minutes, while her boobs almost fall out of her clothes. This repeats for almost 16 minutes, the same animation keeps showing, but sometimes she changes clothes, or takes off some clothes. The same goes for the looped background music, which only changes 1 time during the anime.
But then it happens..…

Since I reviewed the infamous Sleeping with Hinako, I figured I might as well review the other Hinako OVA that I've seen, Training with Hinako, just so I never have to think about it again.
Now, whereas in Sleeping with Hinako, I only saw that because I watched a reaction video to it, this one I only watched because I had heard it was really bad. While this isn't the worst thing I've seen...it definitely is one of the stupidest.
This is basically an anime version of one of those exercise videos you see - you know, one that your mom or dad has. Except it's most likely for a different "type" of exercise for certain anime fans. It's basically Hinako doing push-ups, pull-ups, etc. I actually kind of understand the existance of this, because of games like Wii Fit, Kinect Sports, etc., but tha…

Other bad anime is mentally painful, emotionally taxing. None can compare to what this affront to God does to you. After the beast was through with my mortal body, I lacked the the strength, no, the ability to move. All I could do was helplessly lie there as that demon wearing animated skin stared, proud of Its work. The only reason I still draw breath is due to the creature falling into a deep slumber, no doubt bloated on human suffering.
I am permanently scarred by that monster. A twelve count causes me to lose all ability to function. In my nightmares, It starts the thirteenth push-up and my screams finally wake me up.
You think you know fear. You haven't trained with Hinako.

Training with Hinako is obviously some kind of ecchi anime, thus I went into it with really low expectations, but to my surprise, it actually starts off somewhat unoffensive.
The story starts off with our main character Hinako, getting sucked into a TV, and then breaking the fourth wall by talking to all of the viewers, which came off super charming. However, it quickly devolves into what it really is, an ecchi tape disguised as a workout video. We are soon treated to clips of Hinako working out, and counting reps. Meanwhile, the camera is, naturally, focused on her boobs & butt.
The way they present these exercise routines in terms of the story is pretty decent in the first half, having a little dialogue before & after the workout. However, eventually this just becomes a collection of b…

((Same as Issho ni Training Ofuro: Bathtime with Hinako & Hiyoko and Issho ni Sleeping: Sleeping with Hinako))
Well, this is one of the perverted shows that sometimes come from Japan. It’s not hentai… although it really should be. The only real people who would be buying this would probably be very, very lonely men with much to much time on there hands who will wack off to cute little girls that look a bit to young.
The artwork and camera angles are only to show these strange little angles for a ‘better view of the training’… ya right. No girl in their right mind would let the camera get these angles if it was not to turn the viewer on. Now on a lighter note, yes… the artwork is beautiful, just used highly to sexualize her is all.
Her voice is annoying as well, the cutesy little high p…

Training with Hinako is basically just the same ten frames of this big-chested teenager doing push-ups in her underwear and counting aloud while crazy-ass Initial D music plays. If you like jerking off to girls doing push-ups and/or eurobeat music, this is the show for you. Hell, it's not even a bad way to learn to count in Japanese, honestly. If you want to actually get fit, though, I don't think this will really help you. That is, unless you can touch yourself and do push-ups simultaneously, in which case you're probably already in pretty good shape.
STORY: Totally non-otaku girl watching anime and eating chips gets sucked into her TV. You turn on your TV, she sees you, you make friends, she takes off her clothes and teaches you how not to be fat. Stupid? Yes. Ridiculously stupid? Yes.…

Ladies and gentlemen, this is the greatest masterpiece ever to foil this planets surface, behold Training with Hinako!.
story 10/10 : a treasure amongst treasures, the amazingly complex and developed story made monster look like a walk in the part. But the true masterwork of this anime is its absence of repetitive content. Truly amazing.
Art 10/10 : the beauty of this anime is out of this world, making the considered masterpieces of art in anime shiver before its greatness, none of them coming close to match its outstanding designs and realistic backgrounds. but the true secret of its beauty is the subtle and barely noticeable ecchi. wonderful and complex art.

OKAY- BEFORE YOU THINK THAT THE RATINGS ARE ODD- Listen to what I have to say.
I really love the "Hinako" character. The character. That's it. I kinda enjoyed the anime, but that's because I'm stupid, and enjoy stupid things. :D
Story: Too bad there's no 0 for rating, or that's what I'd rate it as. Really, it's just Hinako excersizing. Well, she talks for afew, but afew the first 5 or 10 minutes, she stops talking and just excersizes.
Art: I gave it a 7 because I like the style, but the animation part of it was really repetitive. D:
Sound: There wasn't alot of background music or anything, but Hinako's voice was cute. But mostly she was just counting while excersizing.
Character: As I stated before, I actually do like the Hinako character. So I did give her a 10.
Enjoyment: 7. Would have b…
