alright, I saw that there was no review for this, and decided I should post something. The story of this is.... I mean, eh. I can see what they were trying to do with it, but it's just executed... not very well for the most part. I liked the arc of the crazy teacher who wasn't a teacher and how it ended. But other than that, it was pretty mediocre and at times, felt like it was taken right out of "r/Iam14andthisisdeep" lol.
Art is okay, nothing special, nothing bad, passable at best.
Characters were the only thing going for this imo. I mean, they weren't ... super fleshed out or anything, but they were the best thing about this whole thing. They were pretty 2D for the most part except the main character whose learning curve was deeper than the other characters.
And OMG, I hated reading this. While reading this, I realised how much important paneling is in a manga, and it's paneling was horrendous and a pain to read through. Jesus christ, I think the paneling made the experience so much worse than it should have been. Even remembering how it paneled is making me bored and annoyed.
Overall, it's not that long and if you want to read something for the sake of reading, go for it. Other than that, it's just meh and boring a lotta times. At least for me. Sayonara Beaches.

It's not a bad show by any means, but it's nothing great either. At least for me, it's a slice of life, comedy anime with a kendo setting. It can be funny at times as well. So, if you want a kendo anime with comedy and cute girls doing cute girl things, you'll like it.
I thought the writing was lazy sometimes, like the senior bully character. He was an interesting character, that could have been used better, but they showed him in start, forgot about him for 20 episodes then brought him back again randomly to create some tension, then he's gone again lol.
They ... introduced a stalker as well in the middle of the show and hyped her up like it's gonna have some big character arc, but then forgot about her and just showed her randomly in between when she stalks miya-miya. You can take her out of most of the scenes in this anime, and it still wouldn't have any impact on the show. goes to show, how useless that character was.
And there are several other nitpicks like this that just make this show...well....kinda meh.
It's not bad at all, it can be funny, but that's all it is for me.
Another issue I had was that, the teacher who is supposed to be very important and even is one of the main characters, is just showed so weak, how can I take him and his students seriously, if their teacher is shown so weak and useless most of the time lel. I thought maybe he will grow with the students, and we would actually see him be great at kendo, but nah he's weaker than his student, so that's kinda underwhelming. But yea, if you want a laugh, and wanna watch cute girls doing kendo, go for it bud, I don't give a shit. But if you want to watch a serious Kendo anime with great character progression, watch "Musashi no Ken". Jaane.

Not for everyone, but definitely for me. love this anime <3
Always found various gags throughout the show very funny and entertaining. The characters are so different and there is no shortage of them. If you like gag manga or anime, check this out. In my opinion, one of the best authors at gag comedy!
The main plot is good as well. It can keep ya hooked throughout all the way to the end. As you see many lovable characters interact with lucky man, and the ways lucky man wins with his luck every time and the reactions surrounding it is always fun to watch. ... I loved this show as a kid. I am happy that I came across this show. Great comedy by an underrated author. :)
