Screw the plot — let there be boobs!!! Big boobies. Huge boobies. Nice butt too. That's what I see in my screenshot collection for Sekirei. I'm serious too. Somehow it ended up on a list of good animes to review, so it must have been better than expected for an ecchi.
This reminds me a lot of like Fate/Stay Night, except all servants are sexy large breasted young women. And the "pact" is made with a kiss.
The bath scenes hit strong as early as episode 2.
According to the science, if you like ecchi harem shows then you will probably like Sekirei.
Except for the ending. The ending is underwhelming.

This is exactly what I expect from this kind of anime: Plot and PLOT. The music is fantastic, the voice acting is amazing, also helps that the voice of the main heroine is one of my favourites I guess xD. This is from the time when this anime were a bit more than fanservice + bunch of boring eres + stupid repetitives jokes... Yes! I'm talking about you To-Love -Ru >.<
Firsts things firsts, the plot, even if it's not incredible complicated, is compelling and simple enough, lots of waifus fighting in a battle royal with their masters... Nothing amazing but, interesting enough. Second, and incredible important... The characters can talk more than 5 minutes straight without making a stupid joke with no sense, it happens from time to time but, it's not every fucking damn 2 seconds.…

For me, this is a GOOD ecchi.I also liked the fact that the anime is not that old cliché of ecchi, demon king and everything else that we already know, but in fact this anime is not unanimous, but it does its "rice and beans" well and the anime is well conducted.
The animation is not bad, but it is not good either, this animation gives you something simple and that's it, but I must point out that episodes 11 and 12 have a completely horrible animation !!! Which for me is on the same level as the animation of naruto against pain or nanatsu.
In the end I still like the anime and only these last two episodes disappointed me (in terms of animation) otherwise I still see it as a good anime.
I hope the animation improves, because I gave seven for this first season because it really is good, b…

- May Contain Spoiler -
Battle Royale - in the current time whoever hear this word he knows what it means, the concept which is most popular. Where there are more than few players who all fight each other depending on the rules and way defined how to fight and the one who survives till the end and still stands is called the battle royale WINNER. There are many projects running using this one as their base concept but each have their own world, story, ability, skills and play concept.
Sekirei is also a story based on this concept but with a different play concept in which there are total 108 Sekireis in this world. But To awaken their true power they need to find themselves a master who is compatible with them and have to form a pact with him/her. And there is one catch point is that mor…

This review will be for both season 1, and season 2 of Sekirei as my opinion will be largely the same for both, with some slight variances.
I've just seen Sekirei for the first time, after hearing it's similar to DearS, which is one of my favorite anime despite not being anything groundbreaking. I have to say, the comparison was pretty spot on in a lot of areas. I enjoyed Sekirei a lot to be honest, and I feel bad I had to give it a 7. But I couldn't in good conscience give it an 8, as it has some glaring flaws. Looking at it critically, It's undeserving of a rating that high. That said, a lower rating does not mean I enjoyed it less.
Starting off, the animation for season 1 is incredibly inconsistent in its art style. The female characters are drawn thicker than a Snicker for the first…

I did wrote 10 when i was younger.
now im grown but i still think it decent (at least among ton of ecchi i looked when i was young)
Ladies fight with Ladies! and they have SooPer pawa! and they have Different powers
and you need gather a Harem to be cool!
and actually lose cloth in fighting
what you need else>????? btw fighting scenes are the best among thing genre.
if you are not fan of harem or ecchi or anything else you can go miss this title easily.!
btw i watched dubbed in russian so some moments could be more fun with dub.
p.s. there no season 3, so i still waiting for it...

I actually watched Sekirei in the Japanese version some time ago, and only now did I decide to re-watch it in English. So, does Sekirei still hold up? Well, let's hop on and find out, shall we?
Story
Minato Sahashi's life is forever changed when he meets a group of beautiful warrior women called Sekirei and he gets involved in a struggle to decide the most powerful Sekirei in the city. Action-harem anime aren't exactly new these days, but Sekirei does put a new spin on this concept by forcing the protagonist to make his own harem and win what is basically a battle royale, the specifics of which are never really elaborated on. All we now is that a special prize awaits the winner of the contest.
Let me be honest about this: Sekirei thrives on the outlandish and silly. Every one in a while,…

Note: This will be a review of both seasons.
Overview:
"Sekirei" is definitely not your typical harem anime. It's not even that well-known and I can't even remember exactly how I came across it, but I'm very glad that I did, as it avoids almost all of the stereotypes commonly associated with the genre. While it still has plenty of flaws and quite a few things it could do better, if you want to watch an exciting, hilarious and often touching tale about badass women fighting for the ones they love, "Sekirei" is an anime that's definitely worth your time.
Story (7.5/10):
Set in Tokyo in the year 2020 (the current present year), "Sekirei" follows two extremely different individuals: Minato Sahashi, a very smart but deeply insecure young man who's just after failing a college entrance exam fo…

If you need something to kill time watch this. It has more breast and thighs than a Popeyes family bucket. if you are vegan well there is no substitute in this show. Now the story is best described as a popeys biscuit kinda dry, but is tolerable and is able to hold you over if you are waiting on something else to do. The main character is like almost all Japanese depicted characters, if they arent outgoing they get flustered by women, yayyyyyy. With the main character out of the way the combo meal is what we are looking for in this anime. The combo is women with some wild powers and they use them to fight. There is no short of blood or anything violence, and i honestly appreciate that. Now i watched this uncensored, if you watch it censored, welll you are doing it wrong. you need to enjoy…

Robert's Too Late Reviews here for the big fight! As always I am reviewing the dubbed version though I will admit that I watched the subbed version first, and will be making small comments on differences I noticed between the two. Primarily though, we're rolling off the dub. I found the title mildly entertaining with some interesting characters, enough for a 'well if you've got nothing better' recommendation, but far from a 'Must Watch Anime' ranking. Some of the concepts are a little convoluted, and with the potential of 108 characters, some cast members get the metaphorical shaft, but it's still alright. Let's get this pact in motion!

Basically the titular Sekirei are aliens/special humans/something *else* that are found in a spaceship like place on a secret island. For reason…

Sekirei can kind of be summed up with "Highlander with Fan Service". However, that really wouldn't do it justice, since it's so much more than a typical harem or another "There Can Be Only One" story. It centers around Minato Sahashi who, after having a beautiful girl LITERALLY fall into his life, discover that he is an Ashikabi, the destined partner of this girl and others like her known as Sekirei.
Minato himself is the best male lead for a harem anime you could ask for. While being physically weak and having a tendency to crumple under pressure, he is very likable and doesn't fall to the harem trope of being a lecherous pervert or a namby pamby with a deus ex machina on stand by. He does eventually become an selfless hero who puts his girls first and himself second (yeah, I know, that'…

I think in this day and age most are too quick to judge something because of its outward appearance. Often when the average fan comes upon a show where ecchi is front and center, most shrug it off as nothing more than a titsfest with nothing of value. But look at a classic like Tenchi Muyo, or the modern day classic Highschool DxD. While both are ecchi and contain harems often fighting for a single guy's attention, both have a lot more to offer with their unique plots and set-ups. Sekirei is no different.
The story itself was somewhat unique for its time, 108 Sekirei's are loosed into the city of Tokyo to find their Ashikabi so they may compete in the Sekirei Plan, where Sekirei fight Sekirei to become the last one standing. Sekirei are lifeforms that are like humans, but are given specia…

I guess most people don't like this anime but i absolutely loved it. Honestly i would agree with the person that said its like pokemon but for adults. :p So funny but kind of true.
I would not recommend this anime to just anyone. More like to people who like ecchi anime and fanservice. Definitely not for the general public. Just by looking at the cover and Maturity Rating its meant to be for male audience members that like some nudity in anime, but not to make it hentai. A non-fanservice member will not like this of course.
I really did enjoy it and a good story. The art is good and overall my favorite.
The characters could of been introduced better or just shown in a way that would get others hooked but good anyways.

Review #5: Sekirei
Story 7/10 -- The Story is semi unique I suppose to most action harems. 108 Girls with a variety of skills and martial arts descend onto the city, not only to find each other, but to find compatible masters in which there are many. I think what makes season 1 a good story is that they make the action intense in a series that is life and death for these girls. However I felt that Minato and other masters roles are fairly underused, and the point of this battle royale seems underwhelming by the enemies claims. The dialogue was decent, but I prefer the plot and events of season 2.
Art 7/10 -- Seven Arcs actually hasn't done many works, Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha is what they are mainly known for, and there last anime series that drew any major attention was Trinity Seven…

Well the series is ok. Now this is before I watch the second season. Which is apparently where the story picks up. So lets get the negatives out of the way first. So the character design. It is ok at best. Most of the characters when they are close up look the same. It is a little annoying, but honestly did not take me out of the experience. The story is very eh at best. I mean there isn't much to go on for a harem hunger games you know? I mean I came into this series not really expecting much of the story. The characters are ok to. I mean all of the stereotypes are included in this, Tsundere that doesn't care, one he is obviously going to be with, the little crazy one, and the WAY to young one. Like I feel uncomfortable when she is on screen. However they are pretty good. Then my biggest…

So to start Sekirei is kind of like all the generic harem ecchi anime, a lot of girls with mc being only guy basically, the anime has a decent plot and all the characters are very likable except if you're like me and hate mc's with a backbone made a liquefied jell-o.
Story 6 - the story was fine, it's a ecchi harem so you're probably not here for the plot too much without it being horrible. The story was more about getting to meet the the character and a little smudge of fighting which I personally was looking forward to the fighting parts since they always tease the "main" girl always wanting to fight and yet they hardly do any fighting.
Art 8 - Very good art, usually for me the art of an anime is the make it or break it for me to watch it unless it has a great story and decent art, but…

4 minutes in, the plot has already started and fan service is already happening.
If that's not a great start, I don't know what is.
People like making fun of Minato for failing the entrance exam, not once, but twice. And his luck just seems to get worse, or is it better? It's not real clear.
The Sekirei, mostly girls with abilities who fight each other in secret. Nobody else is allowed to know, besides their partners, called Ashikabi.
There is a lot of fan service, so if you aren't into that, this probably isn't for you. It all plays into the story though and meshes well, since that's one of the paint points of it.
Musubi is adorable and sexy, she's so sweet with Minato and the romantic parts between them are really nice. A while later we meet Kusano, who definitely rivals Musubi in cu…

Sekirei has a rare plot that leaves you terrified of their situation.
One of the things that hooked me for Sekirei is how dire their circumstances are. The close bonds they develop live in the shadow of an end that there can only be one left standing. Another thing this series does an outstanding job with is the handle on the young female character. Many series hyper-sexualize young women. Sekirei doesn't make this mistake. Instead, Ku is one of the most adorable and tasteful characters you will ever meet in an anime. The MC is a loser. So, nothing special there. And the formal blonde is a bit over the top. I feel like they could have expressed her personality by turning that dial to a good 7 instead of 10. It's worth mentioning that Sekirei is loaded with great fanservice. The soundtrack…

I am going to state this as simply as possible. When I review anime, a 7 is a 70% which means the anime was average but nothing special. I noticed most people would say that was worth a 5, or a 50%, but that is an F. If an anime didn't have any obvious flaws other than being nothing special, then I don't think it failed. So please read my reviews with this in mind. This is why most of my ratings seem on the high end. If I enjoyed it enough to finish it, it should be getting a C, not any lower.
I will also be saying the exact same thing about the other season, because I watched them as though they were one.
Sekirei was one of my first anime, sadly. At the time I really enjoyed it but now, after watching a significant amount of anime, I look back with a better idea of what 'good' anime is.…

I am normally not a fan of harem animes because they typically leave the viewer without a conclusion. Sekirei was very unique to me because it presented a situation in which it was almost okay for the male MC to have a harem. Yes, most of the girls in his harem would have liked to have had him exclusively theirs, so those feelings remain. However, the status of all harem members is clear to all, and they're all better off for being in his harem--quite unique if you ask me.
Basically, this was one of the most acceptable harems I've ever seen, and wish they would continue the series. The manga is even better.
Additionally, the action scenes are pretty awesome, and the underlying plot was good.
The clincher for me was that this is a harem that seems to have actual elements of romance in…
