Nozo x Kimi: There are two kinds of anime, one which starts with a boom and then the standard falls and the other one starts with a usual way but greatly improves as the serize goes. Nozo x Kimi is the second kind of anime OVA.

Story: Two classmates live in two opposite apartment having their window facing each other. And their love, exhibitionism all happens like usual plot. The female lead is the person who blackmails the male lead and he have to do all the things, but still the anime has a amazing vibe and I totally love it. It is a ecchi anime ... and have some nude scene but as the serize progressed ecchiness decreased and story and the pace increased.

Art: The best part of NxK. There is no complain about the art at all. Its amazing, the way every thing was shown are really great.

Sound: Not great but not bad either, fair. Main two voice actor: good job.

Character: Only 3 episodes, so no character development. Kimio is your typical school boy who bumps with beautiful girls without any logical reason but he is tolerable. Nozomi character is the main attraction of NxK, literally she only knows Kimio, and she teases him, she blackmails him and she loves him a lot. She is not our typical tsundre loli but she is clam person, believes Kimio, tries everything to protect him, in a nutshell her character is great.

Enjoyment: After watching the 1st episode I was like meh, what is it? Another fan service? But after watching the other two, I was astonished. The incident may be abrupt but outcome, the scenes of Kimioi and Nozomi are very very beautiful. Yes, I enjoyed the OVA, particularly the last two episode.

Overall: I admit it is not a masterpiece but still I gave 10/10, it should not have such a low ranking, there are lot of useless anime having much better ranking. Don't drop it after watching only the first episode, try the rest two. Blackmail the guy you love with a sweet way, that's what I was looking for, after a long search I came across this OVA. Hope it will have a full length anime someday but for now I am going to read the manga. Who knows a cliche anime like this would be so good! Thanks of reading the review.

I planed to watch gosick because I love detective serize. After watching tantei gakuen q my expectation was very much about gosick as it is much higher ranked than tantei gakuen q. But I'm really disappointed.
Story: it starts with a very mysterious way, kujo a Japanese guy who is from a soldier family comes to Marguerite where he met victorique and their journey begins. The love story between a common guy and a tsundre loli. The mystrys are good. Since the background is 1924 Europe, it has a vintage feeling. All the stories has sad ending but are good enough to watch. The first part ... is really nice but the show goes downhill from the second half, specially the last 2/3 episodes are really contradictory to the rest of the episodes. Gosick is an anime which involve brain not muscle power but last few episodes are full of nonsense action and dark theme which doesn't match to the rest of the serize.
Art: pretty much average compared to a 2011 anime. The background art is detailed and nourish our eye but the character art is pretty mediocre.
Sound: good. The best part of gosick is sound. The voice actress of victorique have done a great work, it matches beautifully to her personality. Other voice artists are also good. The background music and songs are good.
Character: there was a time when the art wasn't good like today's, but had lovely stories and character design. Bitter truth is that most of today's anime has good art but fail to the other two part. There isn't enough depth of the characters. It is very difficult to good characterisation in only 24 episodes. I wish the characters will have more depth.
Enjoyment: I really enjoy most of the episodes but not the last few. It is a romantic detective anime so I had much expectation from gosick. But last few episodes ruined my enjoyment.
Overall: the ending contribute 50% to the overall rating to my opinion. Gosick fails in this part, probably ending is rushed, may have low budget or something else for bad ending. I don't know why most of the anime ending is frustrating, big potential defeated. Though it seems to be a negative review, gosick is not that bad, probably I was expecting much more from it being a high ranked anime.
Thanks for the reading.

Good shows are less popular and low ranked on MAL-this is the case of servant x service.
The background of SxS is a government office where our main protagonists work. This anime is one of the very very few anime where we can see normal life style of normal people like us. It has no supernatural, fantasy, action, meaning less fighting and the story is quite paced. Romance is the main theme of SxS and it is matured kind of romance, not high school type, where boy is running after girl or vice versa. The episodes have gotten better and better as the series progressed.
Lucy ... Yamagami, Yutaka Hasebe and Saya Miyoshi are appointed at the welfare department of the city where Taishi Ichimiya, Megumi Chihaya also work there and are their senior. Lucy is a shy, short heighted girl with huge breast, and there are some running gags regarding her breasts all over the series. Her full name is very long and its kind of wired. Her aim is to become a city officer and to meet the guy who passed her name on birth certificate and take revenge. She was bullied by others due to the wired name all along her life. Later it was revealed that it was Hasebe’s father who passed her name on birth certificate. She is often clueless about the inner meaning of the conversations and a bookwarm. Hasebe, on the other hand, is carefree type of guy; slaking off is the thing he do normally, though he is outstanding when it comes to handling customers. His hobby is to collect as many email as possible from girls. Lucy-Hasebe love relation is the prime focus of SxS. There is another love couple, Ichimiya and Chihaya; but they want to keep it a secret from others. Ichimiya is the oldest in the group and he has a sister Toko. He has the responsibility to raise her sister. Toko is suffering from brother complex and she keeps an eye on him so that no other woman, other than her, gets close to her elder brother. Chihaya is a clam girl; she is also a cosplay artist and dress designer. Chihaya and Ichimiya are in relationship for 2 years, whenever chihaya feels bored, she visits Ichimiyas house, play with Toko. Their bond is very strong but they keep distance from each other during office hours so that no one can suspect them as love birds. Chihaya wants Ichimiya to be a cool dude, who can speak romantically with her but Ichimiya is completely different. Their romance is the most realistic in SxS, even they kissed each other. Miyoshiis a college graduate and Jouji Tanaka is a banker and also school friend of Hasebe. There are hints that they may become lover in future.
There isn’t a deep, meaningful story in SxS, but does it matter? You can laugh in every 2 minutes and the jokes are not repetitive. Movies, cartoons, television serials are all about enjoyment and SxS has 10/10 on this section. There is no aim or goal of the story but it has many sub plots which is the driving force of the episodes.
Art is pretty good; it fits perfectly to the characters. The facial expressions of different characters are outstanding; this is where SxS won my heart. Sound is excellent though I didn’t like the OP.
Overall, this anime is very enjoyable, a relaxing anime where the story is about normal people. Personally I love this kind of clam anime with nice ending. If you are into office romance then SxS is a must watching.
Thank you very much for reading the review.

Please teacher is an anime every man will fantasize about it. I had watched some of the episodes in Animax long ago, and wanted to watch it because of its art and ecchi scenes. But, recently, when I watched the whole anime I was surprised! It is not all about ecchi, breasts, busty females, but a great story and much more than you expect. I am reviewing Please Teacher having a english subbed version, so, I don't know about english dubbed version.

Story:
In one line: a forbidden love story. Love between an alien who is beautiful, has perfect body, nice hair, is a teacher and ... a weak, high school boy who has low grades. They forced to marry and then they fall in love with each other. There are many twist, comedy, sadness in their relationship, and being the female protagonist the teacher of the male protagonist's school, the story gets both funny and complicated. They have to hid this fact from the rest of the world that they are husband-wife. the male lead, Kei has a disease called 'standstill' which plays a big role in this anime specially at the end. the first part is mainly comedic but second part is very very serious but still has a happy ending. There are another student teacher love story which is completely reveled in the special episode of Please Teacher. I should not tell much more about the story otherwise it will be spoiled.

Art:
Art in Please Teacher is outstanding. The characters are beautifully drawn, you will fall love with the animation. Each and every female here is very beautiful, male characters are mainly typical 'good boy' type. Specially Mizuho(female lead), Konoha (Kei's aunt), Koishi (Kei's classmate) and Hatsuho (Mizuho's mother) are very beautiful, perfect breasts, beautiful hair, perfect body that all men fantasize. The kissing scenes, ecchi scenes are just great. The background is drawn very nicely. Its almost 13 years passed after this anime was released but it can compete with any new animes in the art department. Still Mizuho is a unbelievably popular as a MILF character.

Sound:
Very very good, Japanese dub is the best according to me, if you are watching the english dub, then I can't guarantee that you will find it good. Voice acting is superb and the background music is romantic still calm, one of the best I ever heard. Opening and ending songs are very charming and melodic. The soundtrack is sometimes the main factor watching the anime, apart from art.

Character:
Good but not so unique, basic romance anime characters. But it fits perfectly to the whole environment. The feelings development between Kei and Mizuho is the basis of Please Teacher. Their argue over small things, their need for each other made the anime memorable. While other side characters have importance too. This is one of the very few animes having no filler character. Each and every character has its own magnitude. One thing should be mentioned that, most people finds the Kei character is so lame. I don't think so, because you have to remember that he may be a 18 year old boy but his mental age is 15 due to the standstill disease. In the special episode somehow I felt that Kei is much more matured.

Enjoyment:
If you are a only rom/com fan then you will be disappointed. The second part is very very serious almost without any comedy (episode 9-12) having a death which occurred at past. Personally I have enjoyed very much, finished this anime in one and a half day. We all have a crush on one of the teacher in school, we all want him/her to be our soulmate. In this anime your fantasy comes to true.

Overall:
An outstanding anime. Full of ecchiness, beautiful women, lovely storyline, comedy, sad moments, sweet ending. Please Teacher is the first preference regarding student teacher relationship in the whole anime world. I wish we had some more Kei Mizuho love making scene. It is hard to find gorgeous women like Mizuho and Hatsuho in animes. The end may feel rushed, but I highly recommend Please Teacher. You will melt with the sweetness of Please Teacher.

This is the special episodes from 1st season containing 3 episodes. The first episode is overall summary of the previous 24 episodes. I don't find that on the internet, so my review is completely depending on last 2 episodes. I consider the last 2 episodes as episode 25 and 26 of first season.
The story is outstanding, we can't blame someone if he find the story better than the main anime Ah! My goddess (TV). The story begins from the fact server down of heaven due to the 'ultimate destruction' thing. Due to this Urd become a child, Skuld become adult. Then ... two beautiful story follows. This is a side story of the main anime.
Art is same as the main anime, very very good. Little Urd is so cute and adult Skuld is so beautiful!
I have no proper adjectives to describe the sound. Is this the best background music I ever listened? The sound is as great as it was in the main anime.
Now the character, the other side of Urd and Skuld has been shown here. Two love stories which will never be able to happen again. I love this kind of episodes with some kind of character development, expression of feelings.
Enjoyment is great, a sorrow bound gladness, I don't know how to express this kind of feelings. The two episodes are so good that you will want more episode like these.
Overall it is must watching, many of you will find it better than most of the episods form main anime.
