Maken-Ki! Battling Venus (2011)

Okay, what can be said for Maken-Ki! Battling Venus (2011)?? I will state the obvious, if you cannot tell by looking at the cover. It is strictly for Seinen audiences.\
This was made before the western world got infected by "nazi-esk" social media woke-cancer. It is a sickness I am happy to say the East - of that time - seemed immune; and gratefully so. The show itself tried in the first two episodes to have a story but that soon gave way to the scrumptious/genius decision of fanservice. It is not a favored way to go when viewing characters who have special powers at their command, but it worked here. I have seen Seinen where the company tried to "soft-pitch" the fanservice in the show and it ended up leaving the audience frustrated and annoyed. (Ex. *That Time I was Reincarnated as a Slime*) But when the company commits to fanservice, it is a lovely thing to behold.\
The show itself is not bad for what it is. There is a boy, a harem, but they are not all trying to be his girlfriend. There is a love interest, but she is competing with two other girls only on the fear of losing the boy she can't seem to admit to liking more than just a friend. The story from there takes on episodes that center around problems that only they, as the students' self-appointed protectors, can solve.\
There are both censored and uncensored versions of the series; and it's not difficult at all to follow along. If you're a guy, you'll like it. If you're not a guy, it's probably best to "keep it moving" until you find something more your speed. lol

Hope you can enjoy! -- Bob --
