Eizouken. This was a pretty good show.

Eizouken is about a group of girls who wanted to do animation movies/videos as a club in their school—Kanamori, Asazuka, and Mizusaki aka the famous girl.

Oh boy, do I have a lot to say?

First off, the first thing I notice is the opening. Holy crap is the opening good. Seriously good opening. The music in general in Eizouken is super good! I am not going to notice it haha. Second of all, the animation is amazing. The animation is super smooth, and it is amazing how they bridge the gap between reality and imagination. Midori's imagination is always ...

I finished this show on 3/24/2020 at 2:32 pm

This show is somewhat original with the premise of animation production; other anime's that relate to this is Genshiken and A Sisters All You Need. I feel like this show is more original in what it presents and that the characters leave more of a lasting impression due to the cast being down to 3 (not including Doumeki) and how they are represented.

At first, the animation I didn't really enjoy, but I really warmed up to the idea of not having a visual masterpiece this time around due to the originality and imagination ...

Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken is a currently airing anime from renowned director Masaki Yuasa. He is well know for his outlandish styles and ability to think outside of the box to develop creative animation. He’s worked on well-known hits like Devilman: Crybaby, Ping Pong: The Animation, and Night Is Short: Walk On Girl. When he started out he was a smaller indie director and now he’s a major name in the anime industry.

Yuasa-san decided to work on this show because he found a forum post whilst searching his own name on Google. The post was from an enthusiastic fan of a lesser ...

Mixed Feelings

Eizouken ni wa Te wo Dasu na! has an unusually high willingness to delve into the specifics of anime (and animation, really) as a process, which gives it a feeling of authenticity. However, this wasn't enough to suspend my disbelief at all times, as I questioned how two school girls (tall girl does not participate in the actual grunt work) are able to develop and produce several animations in a relatively short amount of time.

The three lead characters have a fun dynamic. Tall girl's no-nonsense approach to her friends is a necessary contrast to the starry eyed idealism of the other two.

I think my ...

Two wacky schoolgirls and one teen model decide to start a ersatz video club as a face for making anime. As they rise to prominence within their school, their projects get more and more ambitious.

I really liked this one. It was quirky and very interesting in explaining how the process of animation is handled. The three main characters bounce of each other really well and getting to see them create anime is wondrous and imaginative. Each character's personality is exaggerated enough to fit this interestingly designed and rather crazy world.

Would definitely recommend to anyone who has a passing interest in animation or the process of ...

Theres so much amazing parts appear which is somehow shocking my mind. Really, i dont really get along with the work of anime world of production. But, when i see this little show with a weird art and animation, now i understand a little. Yeah, so much thing happen, i dont get it that at one glance. I trying hard, and the end, all becomes clear with the intension. I smiled, this is amazing. I never seen a masterpiece like these before with a solid story and simple like how Asakusa implemented her world of weirdest thing.

Yet, sometime it feel absurd. I dont even like ...

Boy this is a really a good anime. It's original, the art is awesome and unusual and the story is actually incredibly educational. You might just come away knowing quite a lot more about animation and anime production after watching this.

The story is about three friends who start a club to make anime. The show's strong point is the characterization of the main protagonists, Midori Asakusa, Sayaka Kanamori and Tsubame Mizusaki, who come across as real people with real interests. You quite literally enter their brainstorming and see how their ideas develop and evolve and how they problem solve and invent as they go ...

If you are reading this, you probably like anime to some extent. At the very least, you are most likely curious about it. And this show features several girls who love anime not just for its entertainment value but for its complexities and artistic value.

Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken! is essentially a love letter to anime. The appreciation of the medium is not only the plot of this show but is directly demonstrated by the animation of the show itself. However, for me personally, I just did not connect with this concept.

Story:
The plot is relatively straightforward but not the main focus of the show. The ...

Eizouken is the first television series Yuuasa has directed by himself since Devilman in 2018. Is this a worthy successor to Devilman? Let's see. This review will be split into 3 sections: art/animation, story/characters/writing, and enjoyment-to-series length-ratio.

(1) Story/Characters/Writing: 7/10
This story follows three young girls: Asakusa, Kanamori, and Mizusaki. They work together to run an amateur animation studio as a school club. Kanamori runs the studio logistics. Asakusa is the director, and Mizusaki is good at animating subtle motion. Kanamori is the most interesting charecter. She reveals herself to be much more interesting that she appears initially (greedy, rash). Mizusaki is the next most interesting: she ...

So this is my first review I ever wrote so bare with me this might be all over the place.

Eizouken is great, one of the best series of the season if you ask me and for great reason. One, this season was a bit dry, and that is kinda sad because this was the first anime season that I kept up with, and two this series is actually pretty good. I will review this in segments like everyone does so lets get started.

Story:

The story was interesting. There isn't an overarching ...

"No matter how vast the darkness, we must supply our own light"

Eizouken, is a great reminder before anything else, that this world needs the light that comes from the individuality, and harmony and coexistence.

From the very first glance at this anime, i have felt that something is different about this anime, the usage of timing, anatomy and the story telling, it's unlike anything else, it's the most sincere yet cruelest try to keep the light in the world lit.

Our three main character match up to make a motion picture or anything really, they go through history and discover the history is alive even now.

The animation ...

Art - 5/10

Animation in the history of director Masaaki and his team was never a priority, always the priority in visual terms was conceptual art. In some works, the style interacting with the proposal, even when it is not beautiful, works well because it conveys something, but I don't see much of it this time. Being a weak animation, which at times seems sloppy, a low-budget underproduction, and not quite right.

The designer characters are outdated, simple, and ugly. The “real” scenarios of the characters, on the other hand, are visually inconsistent, because in some moments the scenarios are full of details, stylish, however there is ...

Eizouken ni wa Te wo Dasu na!: Anime and its process

Continuing with another series of the winter season 2020 and continuing with the quarantine, we have one of the most artistic series so far this year and seeing what the future holds for us, it will probably have an important place among my favorite series that premiered. Being the most recent work of Masaaki Yuasa with the direction of series after having worked on the tape Ride Your Wave (2019) and the highly spoken adaptation Devilman Crybaby (2018). The series to which I dedicate this review comes to demonstrate its talents as a visual narrator ...

Keep Your Hands off Eizouken! is a show that reminded me “oh yeah, this is why I watch anime.”

I’ll try to keep this semi-brief, as I don’t want to gush too much; Eizouken and its characters stole my heart early on and never really let it go. The set-up is fairly straight-forward: three girls start an animation club at their school. However, the characters are unlike what you might find in most anime set in high school. It’s a nearly all-female cast, but if you’re expecting a CGDCT or fan-service-driven series, you will surely be disappointed.

The first thing you might notice is their appearances. ...

This anime tells the journey of three high school girls to make anime. One is a pocket rocket of imaginative powers and has great skills in background art and sound direction. Another is a passionate animator. And the third girl? Watch the anime to get your answer 😉 Together they make a fun combination and compliment each other nicely.

This anime is short, sweet, and straight to the point. No excess shenanigans or nothing. It shows us in nice detail about various aspects of the anime industry: character design, animation, attention to detail, when and why to use 3D graphics, the suitable use of sound, the ...

Though not for everyone, it is a very nice break from the usual norm

The anime has an overarching "Ghibli" feel to it, despite being simple the animation has tons of colour and fair bit of depth to it. It was the first show to draw me in not with fight scenes and a deep story, but with a simple premise.

The show talks a lot about the struggle of being an artist, while I'm not a artist, I am an writer and I can understand a lot of the themes this anime is going for.

The main character trio is also fun, three opposing personality Traits working ...

Eizouken has been a very comfy anime for me this season. The soft colours, the incredible backgrounds, and the music all make for a comforting experience with the simple story of three friends (plus alpha) making an anime.

Shirobako comparisons aside, I do like how a lot of focus is given to the business management side of things instead of just purely the animation side. For a talentless office worker such as myself, it's a lot easier to engage with the show from Kanamori's perspective.

The direction is incredible. This is my first proper Yuasa show (I did watch that weird wrestling thing he made ...
