Length: 24 episodes
Original Airdates: 4/07 - 9/07
Demographic: Seinen
Genres: Comedy, Satire, Slice-of-life
Plot Synopsis
Portrays the lives of several school girls attending a Japanese high school with a very loose humor tone. The main heroine is Konata Izumi, an athletic and intelligent girl who, despite these attributes, is not in a sports club, and her grades remain low. Her laziness at school is due to her love for anime and video games, and she is not interested in much else.
Personal Opinion
So I had heard of Lucky Star for quite a while actually. I just wasn't sure what I should expect. I mean it didn't have anything extravagent, i mean some anime references here and there.
And then i saw the OP. And my life would never be the same.
So if i were to ask for a plot, i would say that there isn't any. Lucky Star is the anime equivalent of a sitcom. Each episode has multiple short situations that leads to some witty comment or reference.
Now knowing me, plot-development is a MAJOR aspect of my reviews. So a show that doesn't have a plot will have a hard time to get a good review from me. However... Not only did Lucky Star managed to garner a good review from me, but it also turned me into a hopless fanboy.
At this moment i'm trying to learn the Lucky Star dance
3/4
This is a series made of pure WIN
Similar to...
- The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
Same voice actors and there are plenty of Haruhi references in Lucky Star. It's a running gag
- Minami-Ke
Haven't reviewed Minami, but from what i've seen of it, it's quite similar to Lucky Star, as in sitcom like anime
