Ichigo 100% 12 - Final

June 21st, 2005 by Gunlex

Gunlex: It seems like an odd place to end the TV series. In a way it’s a good thing that it ended. I was getting sick of seeing them desecrate the characters. This episode was an exception though. The characters in general were pretty consistent. I’d have to say Misuzu and Tsukasa were the only two characters who stayed consistent throughout the series. The brief animation shown during the ending song was nice. I’d say it’s the same quality as the first OVA. It was just too bad they couldn’t keep the same animation quality for the entire series.

My overall thoughts on this series: Don’t bother watching the anime, get the manga instead. It is far superior to the anime series. Watch the OVA if you must listen to the voices they chose for the characters. Even just watching the last episode would work too. Another thing about the series that was very disappointing are the BGM’s. The BGM’s didn’t fit the atmosphere and they sounded horrible. If they had kept the OVA’s quality throughout the series I would have enjoyed watching the series a lot more. I would have probably wanted to see more than just 12 episodes.

Gunlex: I didn’t think much of Misuzu in the manga. In the anime she looks better than most of the other girls. Usually the character animation quality just drop from time to time. I didn’t really notice that with Misuzu. Even though there was no Tsukasa in this episode, I found myself enjoying some parts of it. Yes, it’s blasphemy, I know.

Gunlex: Tsukasa with short hair again! I was expecting more time with Tsukasa this episode, but unfortunately we only had a short scene with her in it. The art in general was probably around average. In some scenes the characters looked normal, in others they looked weird. We get to see Sotomura’s sister for the first time in this episode, too bad she has that attitude and is such a minor character in the manga.

Gunlex: Finally some Tsukasa. It was unfortunate her appearance was so short in this episode. Something happened to the animation right before the beginning of the second half. The scene with Manaka and Satsuki the day after Valentines. It looked as if that scene was put together by a 12 year old. One of the best things about Ichigo 100% is how great the characters look. And they give us THIS crap? (;´д⊂)

Gunlex: There was no Tsukasa in this episode. (´Д`;) The characters looked pretty bad in this episode. It was hard to find any decent shots of the characters. When I had to resort to using Yui shots, then you know there isn’t much to expect. This episode didn’t do the manga justice at all.

Gunlex: Not much to say about the first half, it was just Satsuki and Yui. Watching the second half of this episode makes me want to strangle Manaka. Putting Tsukasa through all that, unforgiveable. I felt the animation quality was pretty bad in this episode. There were parts when the characters just looked hideous.

Gunlex: The first half revolves around Tsukasa, enough said. I thought she looked great in this episode. There’s some stuff with Satsuki in the second half, but nobody really cares for her anyways. Overall, this episode is worth watching just for the Tsukasa parts.
