Hehe^.^ This is one of the funniest/random animes I know, but its been on my mind for a few hours (Since I saw a fan drawing of "Azumanga Akatsuki (naruto) earlier today...Sorry for randomness) Anyways~ here's a review...
Genera: Humor/School
Animation 9/10 Characters 10/10 Story 8.5/10
Ohhh~ and added points for one of the cutest random openings of any anime I've seen^.^ Its gets stuck in your head.
Basically this anime covers the High School Carreer of a group of girls from freshman year to graduation. It was origenally aired in small 5 minutes mini-episodes then combining 4 together to make a full episode. The show is very cute and humorous, and the characters are pretty memorable.
Characters: -Chiyo-chan^.^: 5th grade child projidy that is advanced to high school. Is perfect at almost everything, and rich. -Tomo: Super-hyperactive, terrible student, and always driving best friend Yumi nuts. -Yumi: One of the few "serious" characters, best friends with Tomo since grade school (for some reason?). She has a serious obsession with dieting. -Sakaki: Famous in her class for being quite and cool, but actually she's quite shy. She has a hidden adoration for anything cute. She is the tallest and most developed in her class, and they are always reminding her of this... -Osaka: Not origenally called "Osaka", but she came from there, every one forgets her real name (even their teacher...). She's very... Slow, but she is my favorite character, and in my opinion what makes the show worth watching. -There are several other important characters, but these are the main ones.
Overall this isn't a fast paced anime, but it is very cute. It has no real "constructed" story line, and not much character info about their pasts. The main focus of this story is the quorky things they do in school, and their eventualy graduation^.^
