Uhh. Hm. Alright, uh, let's just get right into it. Henkei Shoujo is one of the strangest anime I've ever seen, and centers itself around teen girls that transform into vehicles and mechs. These transformations are also meant to be erotic, but outside of a very concerning cohort of individuals, this ambition falls flat. When you get a pantyshot of a girl that's turned into a car, or titties that have transformed into naval cannons, the thing that should be grabbing your attention as the viewer is the grotesque, insanely detailed cg transformation sequences that seem to be the whole point of a given episode. To use a point of comparison, it feels like deviantart fetish stuff that was given a suspiciously high budget. That pretty much covers the story, which is essentially nothing more than…

Interesting concept I guess it's essentially anime girls transforming into vehicles in various episodes and a kitchen based machine in episode 5.
As fun and quirky as this little series is (which feels more like an animation project/short reel) it's hard to recommend it to someone who is new to anime, however I would recommend it to someone who's into anime waifus and transformers I guess, as much of a specific niche as that sounds.
Clinically the animation is done well and the sound design is really solid, music is a nice touch too and each episode is about a minute or so long.
In conclusion it's a fun little surreal romp with a niche that would appeal to anime fans who enjoy waifus and mecha fused together.

Went in completely blind, didn't even look at the episode length - 26 seconds in my jaw dropped harder than it has ever before. The only anime where I immediately re-watched the first episode after finishing it.
one of the two listed staff members is Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and the other is Erik Satie, both of whom are long dead. 10/10 for resurrecting classical composers just for this 7~ minute shit post
I've said everything there is to say, MAL won't let me upload a review that short so here's a haiku about the show:
I stayed up all night,
Searching for a masterpiece -
And this isn't it.
10/10

This is a pure work of art. Those who watch it and say its a waste of time deserve to have their time wasted. Those who would watch it and say its disappointing deserve to be let down. Those who would watch it and say the story is non existent do not deserve to experience the intricate story. Those who would watch it and say the soundtrack is soulless do not deserve to experience the immaculate soundtrack. This show brings justice to an unjust world. It is not the anime we deserved but the one we need.
It is the duty of every member of society to contribute to the furtherance of this work, to praise it, to love it, to consume it.
The only valid complaint is that there are only five episodes, for if there were only more episodes this world might be a truly just one. It would be a world w…

A truly innovative piece of art, showcasing how people change through tough transformations. Like before watching this anime I did not think it was possible to turn into a car, nor a ship nor a mech but now I am enlightened, they have shown us what most animes fail to do.
Like what other anime can you say has an anime girl that turns into a an airplane just to fetch a girl's hat? Such kindness and selflessness
has encouraged me to be a better person myself.
The way it manages to captivate the characters emotions is brilliant as well. It's like I feel the same way the character does I mean cmon. Look at gray haired girl that always watches these transformations take place! Shock, Awe, Happiness, Joy and Sadness are all shown extremely well.
My favorite story out of the main 5 was when th…

My rating is gauged significantly different than if I were to rate more typical anime. As a meme, I'm pretty sure 9/10 is spot on.
The characters are really involved in what makes these skits so... legendary?
There is simply no way to predict what comes next. Perhaps this is a hallucinogenic tribute to mecha, and in particular, to the Transformers series.
Beyond developing the notion of mechanical transfiguration, I think it is fair to say that one cannot simply guess what exactly these heroines would transmogrify into, and that adds to the beauty of it all.
The shock value was spot on. The art is unassuming, one would not expect the skits to turn the way they did given the style.
The sound, and sudden cut into the theme music of the skit really upped the ante for what an anime me…

This show is amazing it perfectly encapsulates my fantasies of girls turning into cars and planes. I find this extremely epic and would give my lung for another season but with 26 episodes and 24 minutes for every episode. (Please consider the creators of this masterpiece.)
Story(10/10): Even if having a simple story of girls just turning into machines it can still stand far above all of Shakespeare's writing. This absolute treasure of a story will make you think your favourite show was just a pile of garbage in comparison. Truly the only show I can watch in repeat for its most thought provoking and compelling story to ever be told.
Art(10/10): If I could give this show a 11 out of ten for its art I would. It has some of the most eye tearing animation I have ever seen in any anime.

I usually enjoy breaking down anime and writing reviews on them, good or bad. I feel like there's good and bad to every anime but this anime is another whole level of understanding beyond what I can handle or comprehend. It is beyond my intellect and too truly give it a score, I don't think that's possible.
What we see in the spam of 5 minutes is greater then what we see in the spam of a entire series of the Monogatari series. And if you know me, I love that series but it doesn't even compare to this show. It's like holding a candle to light the earth compare to the this anime that is like the SUN!
You get like cute girls doing cute stuff, with Meccha and you're Isekei into that world without even realizing that you're so caught up in that moment that 5 minutes feels like you've been t…

Never before have I accidentally completed an anime.
I saw it linked on YouTube, watched it, came here to find out more about it, turns out the little I watched was everything.
The content of the show itself is actually pretty good, quite enjoyable. The only reason I gave it a 7 was because it's basically a trailer for a non-existent anime. It has no story or direction, just short 1 minute skits.
That said, what you get out of it is definitely worth the time invested. It's basically 5 minutes jumping between WTF and LMAO.
Definitely recommend watching it.

This anime... this masterpiece brought tears to my eyes. It was the most emotional and beautifully crafted show that I ever experienced.
10/10 On the story, each one was masterfully created, showing very much realistic circumstances. Beautiful story, I feel like everyone could relate!
10/10 With the art, also! It had the most generic “cute girls” style ever put on an anime, and this plain character design for each anime person is put to its fullest!
100/10, The music that is carefully selected should deserve an award! It’s so most definitely not repetitive, especially during very original plot twists!
Overall, I would recommend this anime to any of those people who love to see amazing plot twists that brought me my joy and sadness, made to fit in all of the short episodes. I’m so sad…

Henkei Shoujo (2017)
The only real reason this is a 10 is that it is so damn crazy it deserves awareness. I feel for the girl in the white dress she lives in a world that is beyond weird.
Cute girls transform into weird things is the show. Gets weirder as the show goes on let's be honest. No story in any way to speak of.
Also, it should be noted even in the robot state the panties are visible. Something of a weird addition.
This is one of these shows although very short and hilarious in its own way, I do wonder how many drugs the makers were on when the made this and what the board was on when they approved it to be made.
Watch it, you will not regret this 5 minutes.

Great show. I quite enjoyed the soundtrack as well. I recognized a few beauties in the OST such as Radetsky March and Gymnopedie No.1 .
So where to start in this review?
Well, the story arc was quite compelling. I thought that it was interesting to see the deepest reaches of one's own mind whilst distraught in peril.
My favorite episode was episode 4 as it became evident that the rising action was leading to the climax.
Simply Beautiful.
Quite Amazing.
Simply Delectable
Obviously for a refined palette. 9/10 overall
The one point missing is just because there aren't enough episodes.
Waiting for season 2

I'm actually going to try to be somewhat serious about this, which is probably more than Henkei Shoujo deserves, but anyways.
I don't know why this exists. Like, I honest to god have zero idea how this happened. Mind you, I'm not complaining.
This show is one big shitpost, and I actually had a lot of fun watching it. I'm not sure how to really quantify that as a number, but I think it did everything I could've asked from a 1 minute per episode shitpost.
Surprisingly, the one joke didn't really overstay its welcome in 5 episodes. I don't know they could've pushed it much farther, but 5 total minutes was enough time to keep cracking up at the minor spins on it. The music actually works perfectly with it as well, setting a mood and then abruptly shifting it each time.
There's not really m…

(10/10) word cannot discribe this anime, but I will try my best:
This anime is sooooooo deep, every scene makes me want to cry!!!
The music "me chupa-la" is great. in portuguese "me chupa la" means: "suck me there".
The classic music in the backgroung is so wholesome.
It is very sad that this anime only has 5 episodes, pls make a movie.
The team that made this anime could work in "Vending Machine Dungeon" it would be Great no spoiler
ep 1: Great
ep 2: 666 times better than sonic the movie
ep 3: This is the best echii off all time
ep 4: This ep is Azur lane writen by God Himself
ep 5: Season finale :( 100 times better than food wars!!!
Pls season 2!!!!!

Ever want to turn into an airplane and fly away from the suffering that is life itself? Now with Henkei Shoujo, you can embark on a journey to do just that!
Story (10/10): The premise had a lot of potential. It took that potential and twisted it into a masterpiece. It was an exhilarating ride going from tragic losses to inspiring teamwork. It is truly a heartfelt experience that I have yet to see in any other show. The way the plot was presented was masterful. A lot was left unspoken which allowed the viewer to interpret it as they want. There are countless possibilities, and that is the beauty of Henkai Shoujo.
Art (10/10): One word- Breathtaking.
Sound (10/10): The music was very calming at the beginning, and it perfectly fits the scene toward the end.
Characters (10/10): Let's see..…

Ok, I know all of you serious anime watchers out there are getting your panties in a bunch over how short and meaningless this anime (If you can call it that) is. However, I'm a fairly experienced individual myself, and let me tell you. If you rate this anime as a comparison to most other anime it will most likely score extremely low. However, the point of rating anime is just to rate it based on
a combination of your personal enjoyment, and how close you think the show is to how it should be. I personally enjoyed the quick 10 or so mins. I spent watching, and I also believe it is exactly how the creators intended it to be. In my eyes this makes it a quirky random super-small anime that gets a quick laugh out of almost anyone that watches. You could compare this (if you have no imaginatio…

This is what happens when you let Micheal Bay direct anime. Straight to the point, just robots and hot girls, just like the entire Transformers movie series.
Story (10/10) - The lack of a story makes this anime a true masterpiece.
Art (10/10) - The CGI reminds me of Transformers, which reminds me of Micheal Bay, which means it's good.
Sound (1/10) - The music was recycled and soulless. Totally unlike Transformers.
Character (10/10) - The characters have no personality, just like Transformers characters. Enjoyment (10/10) - Transformers.
Overall (10/10) - Some discredit this anime for having no story, just like how they discredit the masterpiece that is Transformers: No Plot Just Robots. This 5 episode anime series whose total runtime is less than 10 minutes truly is a masterpiece. We…

This review is actually quite hard to write; quite strange for a five-episode show that total under ten minutes.
How do you judge something that doesn't aim high? When your anime is one big shitpost, how do you judge it? Well, I lied.
It's actually quite simple, actually. It's one big shitpost, and it doesn't aim to be anything but that. And it's a good stinkin' time.
Story:
There is no story.
Art:
The artwork is quite good flat animation paired with passable CGI. They fit the aesthetic well, and the lacking parts of the CGI are actually used to the advantage of the comedy.
Sound:
The sound's passable. Not much to say. The use of the main theme would get old after a while if this wasn't so short.
Character:
The designs are cool, in a "what the hell, man" kind of way.
Enjoyment &…
