After watching the first episode of Hyakko months and months ago, I stopped watching it entirely. Then I began anime reviews and as such, I had to watch the whole anime. Well, I watched it and here is my review.First off there are four main characters, all of which are female and are starting their first year of high school. There are plenty of "supporting characters".Here are the names of the characters:Torako Kageyama (the main, main character sand she's the orange ponytail girl in the above picture)Tatsuki Iizuka (one of the four main characters. She's the dark purple haired one in the above picture)Suzume Saotome (one of the main characters. She's the cute brunette pigtailed one)Ayumi Nonomura (one of the main characters. The blonde one in the picture)The "supporting characters":Nene Andō (the perverted bisexual chick)Ushio Makunouchi (the deliquent)Koma Kobayashi (annoying photo taking chick)Chie Suzugazaki (the blue haired chick with glasses)Inori Tsubomiya (She looks like Sadako...)Minato Ōba (looks like she's from Peach Girl)Tōma Kazamatsuri (She's a forgetful character)Shishimaru Sengoku (dude who loves Torako)Yanagi Kyōgoku (photo taking obsessed dude)Kitsune Kageyama (Torako's older step brother)Oniyuri Kageyama (Torako's older step sister)And two other little girls in elementary school. They usually show up near the end of the show in every episode. Kind of like how Lucky Star is, but it's boring and stupid.Here are my exact thoughts while I was watching the anime. (I took notes all through watching it.):My thoughts before I finished the whole series:About 5-8minutes of each episode are okay and slightly entertaining, but the rest of it is bleh.The animation is annoying. I feel like fixing it when I watch it. The chins are too pointy and so are their cheeks. Sometimes they look tall, while other times they look unproportionate and it annoyes me. And their big eyes matching the color of their hair with no pupils (except for 2 or 3 girls with pupils) are very annoying. I like that the bisexual chick (the annoying redhead) is perverted. I don't see much of that in the Anime I normally watch.I find that the main four girls that the show is about are less interesting than the "supporting characters". That's not right. I find it sad that the background characters are more fun to watch and listen to than the main characters.(Ayumi Nonomura) The petite, meaty, blonde chick is stereotypical. She's cute and girly and ditzy and a wanna be moe. That's how I percieve her. In other words, a cliche characer.(Tatsuki Iizuka) The rich, annoying, forgettable chick with purple hair, who can't seem to get Torako to leave her alone, is annoying. The only time she shows any personality is when she gets pissed off at Torako. That's about it.Torako is "fun" but highly annoying and sometimes I just want to punch her. She needs to hook up with the deliquint Ushio. Seriously. That would be so hot.My thoughts after watching the whole series:Torako is really stupid... She acts like she's in 7th grade or 8th grade.... Though I guess it makes sense; She's a highschool freshman.(Suzume Saotome) Suzu. I love her. She's quiet and her stomach is a black hole. She's adorable. She doesn't know her own strength, is not afraid of anything, and is most happy when fed. The only thing I don't like is her devotion to Torako.(Kitsune Kageyama) Torako's brother is more interesting than Torako... It's interesting also that his name is Kitsune. It suits his personality perfectly. (And we don't find out until the second to last episode that she has an older sister as well. Oh joy...)I nicknamed Inori Tsubomiya as Sadako two episodes before I saw the episode of Suzu making reference to Inori looking like Sadako. I found it ironic.(Minato Ōba) The Peach Girl chick is very annoying. All of them are very annoying. I don't like this anime. It's very annoying times infinite.Peach girl acts like a wanna be moe. It's terrible and not even close to funny. It's just... stupid... like this whole series. I really don't like it. And even many parts of this series makes me think that the creators of this anime are "trying" to copy Lucky Star. It's pathetic.(Nene Andō) The red headed, perverted bisexual chick is so annoying that I want to punch her in the face. I do appreciate the idea of having a perverted bisexual chick. I've never seen that in an anime before. However, they did such a horrid job on this character that they failed beyond failure in making her a likeable character like most perverted characters are in most anime that I've watched. It's pathetic. Everything about this anime is pathetic times infinity to the nth power.I find that I have a hard time remembering the names of these characters. There's too many and they are all annoying and stupid.Torako tries so hard to be funny, which is why she fails so horribly that it's pathetic.And then in one stupid episode they dressed up the peach girl chick as a playboy bunny.*my feelings so far: Kill me now... How do I make a noose?.... I've been contemplating suicide due to this awful anime.*It's ridiculous. I truly can't stand Torako.And then there is that little bit of "wanna be" romance that is only there for like 30minites of the whole series between some brunette dude and Torako. Though, the annoying brat doesn't have a clue that this dude is crushing on her like she's his lifeline. She doesn't even know him!! She doesn't know he exists!! It's such a tragic one sided love... wait, it's not tragic. It's stupid!!!!It's a giant Lucky Star rip off.Every single character is a rip off of Lucky Star.There is also belated drama between Torako and her older siblings. If it were actually shown throughout the series, it would be good drama, but it's at the second to last episode instead, so I can't fully enjoy it like I want to. B.S.The only part that I really like is that in the last episode there is a small silly yuri moment. That's as good as this piece of B.S. anime gets./end my thoughts while watching the anime.I forgot to mention something! The voice acting is crap as well.So, all in all, this anime is crap. If I could, I'd give it a zero rating. Unfortunately, I can only use the numbers 1-5. So, it gets a one.Sincerely,Kararu-chan
