If your a teenage boy and you wanted to know the kind of conversations 14 to 15 year old girls have when the boys aren't around, boy is this anime going to scratch that itch whether you want it or not. The story of Joshi Kousei: Girl's looks at the lives of 6 teenage girls as they make the transition from middle school to high school and how they're excited and somewhat nervous about making that transition to high school. However, as they start they're first day oh high school they are constantly building up and exaggerating an unrealistic expectation on what to expect out of going to an all girl's high school with often results in a lot of great hilarity.
The biggest credit I will give to this anime and watching the misadventures of 6 teenage girls as they navigate the scary reality of…

I found this anime way back in around 2019 or 2020 because of misty cronexia(Is that how it's spelled?) and it very quickly became my favourite comedy(Right up there with Grand blue and Konosuba). Although I'm a guy who has no idea what being a girl is like, I loved the humor, loved the characters and loved the setting. I remember almost tearing up while listening to the ending song of the last episode because I was sad that it was ending (Ed song is also one of my all time favourites) and I still haven't finished the manga till today because I don't want to see it end.
Maybe it's finally time to finish it for real.
In the end the humor might not appeal to everyone but if it does hit you the right way, then you might fall in love with this anime as much as I have.

I defy you to find a more generic show for the genre of girl's in high school. Even the name seems to be there to tell you "no originality here." It's the default slice of life product and honestly I didn't think I would enjoy it all that much. Did it live up to my expectations of mediocrity? Eh, kind of.
There were some jokes near the beginning I thought were decently funny, as part of the setup and the character introductions. The running gag with the girl who gets into a relationship with *checks notes* Shimotakatani, was pretty funny. Perhaps it's my racist western outlook but there's something just inherently comedic to me about a 6 or 7 syllable name being dropped whenever she has to address him. "Oh Ayano," "Oh Shimotakatani-kun." When making fun of these scenes with my brother we'…

What you see, is what you get...
Joshikousei: Girl's High is what you really get when you get an Arms anime adaptation with an all girls cast in school with the typical ecchi hijinks that entails to it and LA could as EASILY have let this review out like that buuut might as well continue. Shall we?
With Joshikousei: Girl's High being a very "comedic hijinks" anime well let's start there, well this is an Arms anime so right off the bat, the ecchi shows itself with the typical chest and boob shots and of course the anime uses this as comedy mostly in the main cast in undress or "costumes" one way or another, again Arms anime. But for the most part the comedy revolves around the characters jabbing at one another...most of the time the comedy falling flat as the execution and buildup towards…

Probing for another high school anime? How about something just to put in front of your face for awhile for background noise?
Well you’re just in luck, it’s your generic high school comedy where these group of middle school girls are just entering high school. Better not expect anything out of the mundane while watching this cause you’ll be sorely misconstrue.
If you’ve seen even one comedy anime you know precisely how this anime plays out already. The same old tropes with a mix of ecchi for good luck. The most creative Joshikousei: Girl's High gets is the pilot. Grimly it’s all the same pointlessness afterwards.
Are you looking for profound characters with any resemblance of character development? I think you get the picture here. Cause you better leave now cause this anime isn’t for…

High School Girls is a slice of life and comedy anime that I watched only because of someone I knew. This is also an anime I didn't think I'd finish... Eventually, I found out that I was wrong.
For people that tend to go for the shounen or seinen anime (like me), this may seem boring. It's basically just about the overall average lives of a group of teen girls. But, despite lacking in action, the story and the characters are really funny. And, in my opinion, this makes up for everything. This anime isn't always lighthearted though. Some situations end up being more serious than the others are. I like that it's not just humor.
The art isn't impressive but it looks kinda cute. It totally fits the slice of life genre. I like the effects for the more comic moments. Also, the animation's fine…

This was exactly what I was looking for. I wish I’d seen this when I was 11 or 12. As an American, a raunchy female led sitcom is a rarity. One set in high school is unheard of. It’s raunchy yet not in your face lewd (a la Seven mortal Sins). It breaks the mold of the most popular, sought after, athletic, highly intelligent, student council president being the central character. I humanizes the characters by grounding them in the reality that they are not school idols. It’s funny and touching, but not preachy. No life lessons learned, no PSA at the end. I should note, it’s really a slice of life show so it can get kind of boring in between gags. Sadly this anime was ten years old when I watched it and it shows in both character design and animation quality. Suffice to say it didn’t age wel…

Girl's High is basically a slice-of-life comedy Anime that has aspects of some Ecchi, and tells the story of the everyday lives of 6 girls who are friends.
Story: 6/10
As I mentioned in the opening statement, Girl's High is just another slice-of-life comedy. I guess since I am a guy, I wasn't able to relate to the characters, but it did give an insight to how a girl's life (in Japan) is like. There were scenes that made me laugh, and some made me cringe. Either way, I have a neutral opinion about this.
Art: 7/10
The art kinda reminded me of the 90's style of Anime (which is my preferred art style) and it was okay. I didn't like the scenes of fanservice, but it was alright for the most part.
Sound: 10/10
The OP and ED of this Anime are very catchy tunes that are very enjoyable. In fac…

While browsing titles for something with a high school setting, I stumbled upon Girl's High... Six high school girls and their misadventures, plus some ecchi? There was no reason for me not to give this a chance.
Each one of the six MCs has her own personality: there's an immature one (make it two, actually), a petite one, a shy one, a mature one, and one that wants to be an actress. I must say that I liked each and every one of them; there was no MC that I hated. I really liked how the characters were created (which includes their designs), as well as their relations. They do have their bickering, but at the end of the day, they stick together to overcome any problem they run into. A bit cliché maybe, but it still works for me.
The sound is also good. I especially liked the ending theme…

Joshi Kousei, also knows as high school girls. Its is utterly hilarious, if you're a girl you'll laugh even harder since you know just how it is to be a chick. Sometimes its a giving and sometimes its a curse to be a girl, and this series brings out all the funs and joys of being a highschool girl in japan. So much fun to watch and even better if you were to watch it with your girlfriends (friends that are girls). If your a dude you might not get the same humor, then again i wouldnt know since im not a guy, but i think it'll still be funny for you.
This serieries is basically just about a group of friends in an all girls school hanging out and having fun. Not much of a story line, each episode is a little random, but its mainly for the enjoyment of the comedy.
The art is a tad bit older,…

What can I say? This was one of the very first Animes I ever watched. I wouldn't say it was what started my love for Anime, as it was Clannad that did that, and we can all understand why.
Even so, High School Girls introduced me to the types of stories Anime offers. This particular programme has many, with a variety which I love. It starts out as being quite adult orientated it seems, with adult themes and ideas. Certainly not one for the kids. As the stories progress though, there is more focus on developing the characters themselves, rather than pleasing the people that want a shot of underwear, something which I'm glad of. Therefore I believe the stories deserve an 8/10. They're very good. As it was my first series to watch, I got a good taste of what to expect from similar programmes.…

Here's the bottom line: if you're a shoujo fanboy and like high school shows, you'll probably totally dig on High School Girls (aka Girl's High).
The plot isn't original. The show follows 6 high school girls through one year (first year) of high school. Along the way we visit the Sports Fest, the Culture Fest, we go to amusement parks, sing karaoke, and even go to a love hotel! But nothing groundbreaking.
The 6 girls all have different personalities, of course. We have the sweet girl, the innocent girl, the tsundere, the girl who loses her viriginity, and a couple more cuties thrown in for good measure. I liked the fact that there are 6 girls in the main storyline instead of 3 or 4 you sometimes get with these high school shows.
What makes the show good is the character development of t…

This show is so full of mature "girl talk", it was mind-blowing. However I did enjoy this show. Even though it literally did not have an ending. The character development was ok and you actually grew to like all the quarky, far from perfect girls in this show.
If you want a bit of ecchi and laughs and are not to worried about getting an epic story than this ones for you.

High School girls is a straight forward comedy with a lot of in your face jokes about the lives of a group of girlfriends attending a high school. They don't joke about typical things that are safe for children. Rather, they take the more adult oriented ecchi route and run with it.
Story (Good)
The story runs in a typical sitcom style, with every "issue" solved in 30 minutes or less. Things usually start in a safe manner (like going to gym class or going karaoke), but by the end it just ends up all sexed up and wacky. Sexual innuendo's are all over this show. Thats part of this shows charm and makes it pretty entertaining (if you like that kind of stuff).
Art (Decent) --- Sound (Mediocre)
The art and sound is all pretty average for what its worth. Art is not too detailed but not too si…

Story:
To put it bluntly, theres not much of a story that this show follows, it more or less depicts a group of girls that meet under abnormal circumstances and become friends due to that. While each episode depicts some sort of relationship within the group, there isn't any over reaching story arc. Nonetheless, each episode helps the characters become more and more enjoyable.
Art:
Again nothing special. There was nothing ground breaking about the character designs and backgrounds, but that wasn't what this show was aiming for. The cutesy feel that the designs give off are exactly what helps make the show.
Sound:
Again, a perfect fit for the show. Background and Thematic music fit well. As for the OP/ED very annoying. Its a fun jpop sound that annoyingly sticks after listening to it.
