No-Rin Review — D+

Perverted antics take place at an agricultural school.

I watched this one with Classy. One of the best shows we’ve watched in a while, although I have high hopes for next season’s Penguin Empire.

As expected, it’s rather tasteless. Tons of awful jokes about breasts. Lots of men wearing tight swimsuits (ok that part was pretty good). Lots of dirty jokes involving vegetables and eggs. The worst part is the teacher, who is something like 30 years old (although she looks like she’s 10) and is therefore too old to get married and is completely worthless. Normally I just ignore this, except there were multiple entire episodes dedicated mainly to this teacher. It was excruciatingly painful to watch.

Still, aside from this it was fairly entertaining. My favorite episode as far as I can recall was when the two main girls went at it in an agricultural competition which of course ended up as a mud fight. Yes, super classy.

  • Storytelling – C – Can be funny a lot of the time, but other times it is simply awful.
  • Voice – C – Like Gin no Saji if everyone were a perverted caricature.
  • Characters – D – HATED the teacher. The rest were okay.
  • Attention Grab – B – Did keep my interest… although that may have been because I wasn’t actually paying attention and was chatting with Classy about other things half the time.
  • Production – F – Kind of awful.
  • Overall – D+

  1. The problem is, they made fun of the teacher too much.
    While I honestly think that it’s not a topic to be made fun of.
    it’s very tasteless of the author.
