Ai-Mai-Mi

Introduction

Eccentric high school manga club members Ai, Mai, and Mii all share the same dream: to become brilliant artists. Despite wanting to improve their drawing skills, the girls are often derailed by absurd situations involving intricate jokes, animals, and supernatural encounters. Joined by their upperclassman Ponoka, the girls fill their days with hijinks and never suffer a dull moment. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

Qunnya

This anime is not for me. I had to endure it, i didn't enjoy it. The only moment i do say i found funny was when in episode 12(Spolier) Ponoka got eaten. This anime failed to entertain me, however if you like childish random comedy this might actually be for you! If you like this type of comedy, i want to recommend the anime "Teekyuu". I do say it even makes a better job at this type of humor. It has 9 season but fear not all episodes are short and around 2 mins! The thing i can respect about this anime is the Art style! I liked the square like objects. I wasn't though a very big fan of how the humans(anime) characters were drawn. Have a nice day/morning/evening/night!

This one is a bit different, and it's a difficult to "get" at first. There's a lot going on in the very short episodes, and it can easily seem random and ridiculous in a bad way. The problem with short episodes is that it's difficult to show everything and be funny and keep the viewer's attention all in 2 minutes. This is where Ai Mai Mii could have done better, not so much that the jokes weren't funny or that there's too much randomness. I honestly wasn't that impressed the first time I watched it, but after seeing it a few times, the characters start to make a bit more sense. Ponoka's antics particularly seem kind of random in the first few episodes, but they make a lot more sense after you see more and more of her. The art style is a bit different, which is nice. There's nothing partic…

五つの単語批評❕ Insane, hilarious, pure unmitigated joy. Footnote: Crazy comedy shorts with the distinct aroma of a passion project. This is almost certainly not what anyone expected (or asked) to run across in their anime travels, but it may be precisely what you are looking for. Expressive animation, sharp writing, and great voice acting make this well worth its (extremely short) run-time. You even get little anecdotes from the creators' lives during the end credits. It's a love letter to anime, and some of the best comedy I've ever been exposed to. In the time it took you to read this, you could have seen 2 episodes - WATCH IT

Ai Mai Mi is supposedly about three girls writing a manga, well that's what the synopsis says anyway. Throughout this brief anime they seem to be doing almost anything but writing a manga aside from a few scenes where they are depicted actually trying to make it, in fact I forgot at a few episodes in that it was supposed to be about writing a manga. However, I must forgive it because its not meant to be an outstanding anime nor one with a sound story line/plot or deep characters of any sort. Instead this is more of a parody anime if anything, with episodes being short and the content being random and nonsensical. If you are looking for something short to watch to kill time or give you a quick laugh then I think you'll enjoy this one, however if you want an anime that you can get invested i…

Story: With no real narrative, the next thing to respond to when it comes to story is the comedy, and I can admit that there were times where I laughed out loud. It's very strange, incredibly so, and that's what makes this so hilarious. A lot of people enjoy the 'cute girls doing cute things' type of anime, but I'm a big fan of 'cute girls doing absurd things in ridiculous situations' a la Nichijou, so this was right up my alley. Can't give it anything above a 5 when talking story, however, since there really isn't anything beyond the comedy. Art: As funny as it needs to be. The art is definitely a part of the hilarity, and it's definitely one of the things that help boost the score up. It's not that its proportions are a mess and therefore bad, but the fact that they are a mess makes t…

What a bizarre show. Story: There isn’t one. I’m not joking. This show goes beyond random humor, it’s surreal. There’s no real plot progression, though certain events occasionally come into play in later episodes. The show seems set in the real world somewhat, but then out of nowhere something utterly insane will happen. Due to it’s humor being focused on surprising the viewer, and each episode generally focuses on setup and delivery of one to three jokes, it doesn’t always work. Some episodes fail to entertain, while others are incredibly great. While I say it’s random humor, I don’t think it’s poor. There’s a difference between throwing random at you for no reason, and throwing carefully plotted, unexpected, and somehow….hilarious random at the user. The jokes that work are well thoug…

If you want a compelling story, logical outcomes, and good character development, then you are in the wrong place. Ai Mai Mi has none of that stuff that makes "Good" anime (In a purely subjective high-horse stance) and is completely insanity and stupidity. I loved the fla-doodle out of this show. I thought it was funny as all hell. It's absurdity made it golden. If you wanna kick back on your nearly broken swivel chair in the dark and watch a complete and utterly short simple gag-comedy anime Using a whole new line to make a point makes a review look professional trust me. unnecessary satire is satire All in all, I loved it, and if you can appreciate true craziness, you'll love it too.

So, Ai Mai Mi, a show about three schoolgirls, um, nope that's pretty much it. This show is a comedy and MUCH more importantly a slice of life centered around these schoolgirls and what they do on a daily basis (well, onscreen anyway). So how does it stack up? Here is an overview: Read below to find out the reason for this overview Story - there is none, and that's why this show succeeds in matching the genres specified Sound - fit for purpose, comical and not overdone Art - shakey character design, brilliant still life and scenery Character - couldn't be pulled off better, funny and again, fit for the show Enjoyment - don't expect a story like most people have done, watch "for the lulz" OVERALL - 8 My experience of this show was a positive one in all fairness. Mostly because I love to…

Ai Mai Mi, is a show that is apparently about three girls (Can you guess their names?) who are trying to make a manga together with no real knowledge of how to do so. At least that's what all the other synopsis' say. What it's really about is a whole lot of nothing. You heard me right absolutely nothing. Story: 2 I actually think I'm being generous here. In all actuality there really is no coherent story past the first episode. Everything after is a train wreck of randomness with barely any sense being made throughout the entire running time of about three minutes, which is actually two given the intro and the outro of each episode which are all nearly the same. The only reason I gave this a two is because I felt that if it actually kept itself on an actual plotline than there might have…

This anime has to be one of the most random anime I ever watch. Story 6/10 It was so random. Each 3 min episode it had own little storyline, but the anime as a whole didnt. I give it a 6 because even though it was random it got me interested and glued to the screen making me wonder what's gonna happened next. It also had different anime references like dragon ball z, hell girl, Shiba Inuko-san, Bakugan, at some point in the anime they went from japan to new jersey. which was pretty hilarious. Art 8/10 the art has different drawing styles to it. they would go from a kawaii drawing style to deeper more realistic, less cartoony style. i find it interesting they change the whole art with the mood that the anime is going in. Sound 8/10 I was delighted by the characters voicing actors and the…
