*If you are planning to watch this anime, stop reading in case of spoilers*
This anime is superbly crazy, or crazily superb, depends on how you look at it. I mean, just look at the title - how hard it is to pronounce it xD
Well, here's a brief synopsis for starters:
Kuzuryuu Momoko of the Dragon clan is a girl, who trains really hard in martial arts so that she can be the strongest. However, her father told her that because she's a female, she cannot be the strongest martial artist. Then, the father told her to go and search for Inuzuka Koushi of the Dog clan, marry him and produce the strongest offspring together.
Actually, the Koushi and Momoko families are the leaders of the East and West branches of martial artists respectively. The two branches are always at odds with each other, and the fathers hope to solve this by marrying the two. However, there are other families, especially from the West, who oppose this decision, and sought to kill Koushi to prevent peace from prevailing D=
Oh, and I forgot to mention something - Koushi is totally hopeless at martial arts. In fact, he hates violence and wants to become a prosecutor in the future.
So, throw a small-sized but loud martial artist together with a cool, big-mouthed bookworm, then add some boisterous friends *hint: two girls who fell in love with Koushi*, another two guys *hint: who likes Momoko and one of the two girls respectively*, and you get an anime so hilarious that it keeps your jaw moving every minute.
In fact, the first episode was just pure hilarity, when Momoko just butted in between the Inuzuka father and son, and announced, "I am Kuzuryuu Momoko. I'm here to make babies with Koushi-dono.". The expression on his face was priceless.
Still, I personally advise that this anime be watched by older teenagers and above, for the implied ecchiness. Being someone with a single-tracked mind, Momoko won't hesitate to use any means to persuade Koushi to bed her, and that includes wrapping herself with only a towel, taking off her shirt in front of Koushi and other stuff. On the other hand, the other female martial artists are bestowed with a generous chest area, and it's kinda disturbing sometimes to see them shaking around.
Contrary to the impression you might have formed about this anime, it has its serious and touching parts too. The adoration and devotion Momoko has for Koushi (though it beats me why) is very potent, and she is always there to cheer him on even when he fails. Expect some really touching moments towards the last few episodes of the anime, where tears are abundant and words uttered are from the roots of their hearts.
The art is good too. The girls are cute, especially Momoko <3 *coughsDaddyWarrioractuallylikesIrohabetter* D= Koushi is handsome too, in a typical bishie sort of way. And the auras of the martial artists are just amazingly real. I love it the most when Momoko turns into super-deformed mode and hangs around Koushi ^_^
*End of review*
Just to add on to my list of things-to-do,
-Observe 3 days of NO SWEARING (although I broke the pledge once, thanks to a certain pangsAIpuri)
-Take care of the event "An Evening of Music: Reaching for the Stars".
Somehow, I'm still stuck as the organiser of the whole thing...I thought after the Student Council was disbanded and there was going to be another election, I won't be handling this project any more. However, the idiot who rallied so greatly for the reelection did not contest for the posts available, neither did his friends. So, until now, only 4 students contested for around 20 places. Oh well.
