Heartfelt Slice of Life comedy that captures the drama and misadventures of sports teams plus the struggles of adolescence beautifully. This anime was suggested to me by a friend and while sport-themed fiction is not really my forte, I love how it addresses young love, teamwork, overcoming self-doubt and doing ones best regardless of the odds. While the main love story between Kamane and Amuro is one that is all too familiar, I nevertheless enjoyed it along with the craziness their fellow teammates bring about. The passion, outrageous hilariousness and relatable air blend together well making it a joy to watch. Whether you play/love sports or not, it's just the sort of anime to inspire, uplift and show to people that it's okay if you fall from time to time-as long as you don't give up and…

HIDDEN GEM HIDDEN GEM HIDDEN GEM... yes this anime is indeed hidden gem, you might get lured in thanks to ecchi tag, but this anime isnt good cause of its ecchi scenes, but cause of vibes it gives, I watched this while back, and we really need second season.
You might ask: why the hell did you give 10/10 to this old anime? Art in demon slayer is much better, but you gave this 10... SO I will stop you there, look how old this anime is, and than talk!
whats the point of reading this review, if you are thinking about watching it... watch it right now! You wont regret even second. To make this review longer, I prepared some final words: You will never know how good this anime is.. if you never watch it!

My favorite underachieved jewel.
Forget about the plot. It doesn't matter. In fact, it's the only part of the show distintictively lame... who cares?
It's all about the people. How they relate each other, how they think, how they feel.
They are human.
Trust me; they're neither ink over a paper nor pixels into a screen.
Human.
Take all of the ecchi characthers' design cliche one after another: ¿Whimp main characther?
¿Uninhibited gal regularly getting naked for no reason making his nose to bleed?
¿Secretly in love bossy lady always accusing him of perversion?
¿Shy-hot chick, eternally rubbed?
¿Sexually obsessed Mc's friends pack?
¿Exhibitionist and ridiculous alphomega-senpai?
You name it, you get it. You saw them before infinite times, replicating themselves with different wigs and dif…

I loved i the hinting at romance with out revolving around it and all the different characters made it quite enjoyably. the personalities played a big part for me in bringing the story together. i was very upset with the lack of effort on the ending the series ended on the wrong part. if you want to watch this or have watched this be sure to catch the end of the final episode after the credits.i think a little bit more could have been put in to the ending. other then that great anime i recommend.

I read most of the Manga before I found out they made it into an Anime.
The series follows the Manga pretty close, but it adds a lot of extra fan service and extra detail and dialogue, making the series a little more worth while.
If you like boobs popping out of swimsuits and nearly continuous panty shots, I suspect you'll love this rendition. It will highlight the ecchiness and hotness of each character, with a light love story in tow. However, the romance felt very tacked on, because you only see romance during the finale song in the last few minutes of the last episode. So if you are looking for lots of romance, this isn't the show for you.
~Story 8/10~
The story mainly involves two main characters, Amuro and Kaname, and through out the series, Amuro tries to get Kaname to swim, or a…

Despite having a nice, aesthetically pleasing, jiggly bunch of both boobs and butts and being little more than pure ecchi most of the time, this anime managed to worm its way into my heart. Think Free!, but with less gay and more comedy. Every episode is doing pretty darn well in comedy departments, it always sticks to the story at least partially and there is enough of fanservice for everyone, which is truly something to commend.
Nice summertime music and quality VA.
The characters themselves are a breath of fresh air, since most of them aren't COMPLETELY one-sided to the point where you can predict their every move and some of them have a little something secret going on on the side. The screen time most of them get is also pretty enjoyable, so if you're into finding out about the sup…

Ah, another one I watched that I shouldn't have watched, I knew I shouldn't have watched it before I watched it and during watching it I kept telling myself; "drop it, drop it, drop it". I didn't, good anime are in short supply these days so I guess I'll have to watch the bad ones instead.
There was one good scene in this anime and that scene saved it from being a 2. Instead it's a 3, which is very bad. The reason for this bad rating is that this anime was bad. Why? Let's begin with the animation. Animation is basics in anime. This anime was made in the year of 2007. The year of 2007 is not a year of the stoneage when fire had been discovered just the other day, it is the year TTGL was made, one of the best animes when it comes to animation and art that has ever been made. Don't get me wr…

One can say the story in here is not very alluring, but the comedy is a driving point for the viewers out there reading my review. By now you have already looked at the genres this anime falls under and should recognize that it is an ecchi, which means you either get great "pervertedness" or "Okay" plot, BUT surprisingly you get both! There is plenty of tease moments for the ecchi lovers and humor is bound to accompany, because we all know that a breast reference here will lead to a cleavage exposure there. Anyways, what's really great about this anime is that there is some original humor, and that's on the Japanese's standard! Its one of those anime were jokes hit hard in situations that would never occur in real life.
Of course by now there should be some "constructive" criticism and bel…

Normally, anime's with sports in it, have a good story, in this case, it's not. It's revealed later on in the show, but that actually doesn't matter, because Umisho has lots of crazy characters in it who can entertain you before you get to the actual story, lots of things happen, every episode is enjoyable.
The art is really great, it's kind of realistic, the animation is great to, sometimes there's this 3D vibe, yet it's still 2D, really great.
I enjoyed this anime... very much, and everyone who loves ecchi and a good match of fan-service, this anime if for you guys/girls. But not only for them, this is an anime which is enjoyable for anyone. Of course we still got the comedy and sports genre in it, so it's covered in anyway to be a good anime.
Overall it's a great manga, it has a nice…

Now it's time to write a review.
Story: Well, I think the story isn't really Umisho's strong point. I thought that Umisho's story is like any slice-of-life anime, without any real plot at all. Most of the sports anime I've seen have a sort of plot (like winning the olympics) and being introduced at earlier episodes. Umisho's plot revealed later on. Story: 9
Art: The art is really realistic, having some 3D yet kinda like 2D animation. I don't know how to explain it but the art is good. Art: 8
Sound: The opening and ending themes are really catchy, though serious. I expect from an Ecchi -slash- Comedy anime has that sort of "magical girl" songs, kinda like Magikano themes. Also, though they didn't put any intro songs, the op and ed themes gives that competitive feeling whenever played thr…

Writing is not my ability but with Umisho I actually wrote one. So far the best Love Story for me, doesn't contain any serious drama and romance and it does not focus on luv life! That's what I like about this anime.
With only 13 episodes I should give a 9 for the story but with Kaname and Amuro's love story and Kaname being a very lucky guy I gave a 10. The Art is Great, a 9. I gave 10 for the sound because of the Soundtrack. All the characters were fun, they're all unique (especially Amuro) and great! Overall this anime is really great for its atmosphere!

The story of Kenko Zenrakei Suieibu Umisho tells of the trials and tribulations of the Umisho Swim Team. The main plot focuses on Kaname Okiura. He is a member of the swim team, but he doesn't partake in the actual swimming. As a child he got into a swimming accident and has feared it ever since. With the arrival of Ninagawa Amuro coupled together with all of the other members of the Umisho Swim team, everything descends to chaos with much fan service. Fan service is essentially the whole point of this show. Stay away if you are easily offended by frequent panty shots and the prospect of shaving each other.
The Art style of Umisho is fairly unique with a lot of washed colours and bright landscapes. Although the backdrop is usually a pool or pool area, most scenes are very colourful and ea…
