Kemeko DX

This was a cute little show.

The storyline could have been explained better. If you did not watch the entire series ep to ep back to back you would have never even figured out the ending of the show. So for those who think it was a terrible ending, it was not it was just you really needed to pay attention.

If you want to watch the show stop here. Because I will try to explain the ending:


Even though she said that she was not the girl from 10 years ago, she was that girl, the girl he was in love with. The author left the show open so there could be another season appearently. THere was not total closure and no decision on who he would marry but it is obvious it would be her, the girl he dreamed of for t10 years in my opion.

If you really want to waste your time watch "Deamon King" now that was a horrible ending.

I watched this series sometime back and remembered it fondly. i admit i have a weakness for shows that are a little "stupid"... as in they are not meant to be taken seriously at all. And i think that's where this show might have a hard time appealing to the masses who are looking for solid story structure and real character growth. But if you're willing to just relax for bit and enjoy some absurdity, this show just might entertain.

You know, when I woke up, I was in a good mood. I wasn't sick anymore, and I found a great new anime... GA . That was a great anime with easy to love characters. It was a gem that as far as I could tell CR had just added. So when I found this one I had hoped it would be more of the same.

Nope.




I'm tempted to knock off there but I guess I should continue. This show does have elements of good. Like 1 minutes worth per episode, but you didn't come to me to hear how good it is, let's start counting the negatives shall we?

1. The main characters face. I know it seems like a small issue, but his face is red. So either he's constantly blushing or has really bad sunburn, either way, kinda weird. And its not an art thing because other male characters have normal faces. Is he supposed to be native american and the japanese are just racist? I don't get it.

2. The main character who meets him at the door. These characters are annoying and played out enough before you tack on the fact she gets angry and punches him in the face every chance she gets. And come on, those breasts are way to big for her body. Seriously, make them smaller. While your there, make the girl in pink's boobs smaller too.

3. Misaki Hayakawa - everything. ok ok ok. So everything she says, she says in this voice like she's about to cum. So I can only assume that whenever we can't see her hands she's masturbating!

4. Kemeko's design. First off, unless that thing is a bloody Tardis, there is no way she could fit in it. Secondly, wtf? It looks stupid and unweildly and like it would never be good in battle. You want to add action to a love story? Fine. More power to you. Gurren Lagaan showed us how that could be done just fine. The trick is to make your characters awesome!

Look at Angel Beats. That anime doesn't rely on giant breasts to sell itself. No it relies on violence and story. These are the two main components to any epic. Violence and story. But mainly Story! And if you hadn't noticed, even my untrained colleague gave this thing a low story ranking.

Now M.M. (wikipedia says that is the name of the girl in pink) is the only one who save this series for me. Despite her creepy attraction to Kemeko, every scene with her is gold because she actually does stuff! You get a feel for her right away and laugh at her antics. She is basically the Kamina to this series and the only one I really cared about. I nearly cried when she got back into Kemeko.

It would actually be pretty easy to fix this series. Simply cut out Hayakawa and that orange haired kid with the glasses. Change Kobayashi's face so its not red anymore, give Kemeko a decent design for a female bot (aka something sleek that matches the pilot, not the body type used as an example for an obese woman) maybe change the entrance so its a front entrance than a top. the whole bot just reeks of lazy design. Oh and cut out the girl who meets him at the front door. That or tone her back. Like way back.

All in all I would not put this anywhere high on my list, except maybe around 7 of the worst anime I've ever seen.

ED song was good though...

Oh yeah, I forgot I was going to comment on animes ending with no real ending. It seemed an issue for abe1992, so I thought I better address it. Have you seen Chobits? Remember how that was such a let down? The ending was so phoned in and made no sense. Or hellsing the TV series. Phoned in made no sense. I'm cool with an anime ending on a cliffhanger. It means their may be more somewhere down the road. After years Strike Witches finally got a second season so we know its possible. But if theirs one thing I hate more than any other anime, its an anime that rushes its ending. the ending is the best part, and except from the opening the most memorable. That's why the end of an anime should only be when the story has actually ended. Which is why Conan will never become Jimmy Kudo again. Cause he keeps getting more seasons.

OK!! overall i think this was a very good anime i enjoyed every min. I found myself watching it more and more even though it had parts that were really dumb. Anyways here is the warning if you are someone like me who WANTS AN ENDING TO THE STORY!!!!!!!!!!! I DO NOT RECOMMEND WATCHING THIS!!! It made me so mad when i found out the story does not finish even though at the end it seems like there will be a second season...... Well surprise there isn't any!!!!.... yep you heard me this story finishes with a lot of questions left unanswered...... and by that i mean nothing gets answered :/ so it sucked.... but if you are someone who just watches an anime for the heck of it and don't mind something with no closure then go for it. Overall a pretty good anime to watch for kicks, but i would have really liked this anime and would have been in my top 10 if they had finished it.

Well here is a little present i was looking around and found the manga and where it left off http://www.otakuworks.com/view/98752/kemeko-deluxe/vol-03-chp-18/read/
check it out if you want to finish the story, but that even ends without a true ending.... only read it if your really bored and want a few more laughs from the show
