Chu-Bra 12 END

Haruka immediately starts freaking out after she learns that Hayama is leaving. She goes on to say they aren't friends anymore and that it's the end of the underwear club... WTF? Where did all that random anger come from? I understand learning that your best friend is leaving, at that age, is a big thing, but gees talk about blow way out of proportion. So about 15 minutes of the episode is about her being butt hurt about Hayama leaving and how Komachi, Kiyono, and especially Yako can make the girls make up before Hayama leaves for good.

Because of this boring issue we are left with 5 minutes of actual good bye time. Uhhhg. At least that's something to be thankful for right? This episode was a real shitty way to end this series. Not that the series was amazing by any means but I was expecting the last episode to have a laugh or 2 in it like the rest of the series. No laughing here. Well maybe at the end about that Underwear Club  for Men club that Komachi decided to start. XD

Anyway it's never a good sign when the viewer can't wait for the show to be over. I for one am very glad it was only 12 episodes as well. The plot of the show was "unique" in a way but not a very interesting one. (At least for a girl IMO) School clubs can be fun and all but one based around panties and bras is just a little weird for me. I probably wouldn't have been part of it if it was at my school. The subplot was a little more interesting even if you had to dig through the panties to get to it. Growing up is something that everyone has done. Some grow up fast, some slowly, and honestly some never at all. It's something that everyone can relate to and think back to exactly what it was like for them. I know this show did that a little for me, but honestly isn't nothing like the memories that Hanamaru Youchien brings back to my surface. These memories are I suppose a little more depressing in a way. Where Hanamaru Youchien is full of joy and the discovery of being a kid without having to worry about these growing up problems.

The sound and animation were nothing but average to me honestly. The animation was slightly more impressive actually but not all that much. Things were drawn with cute details but I found it to be pretty fuzzy at times. The OP and ED are very forgettable and I couldn't tell you what the music was like throughout the show.

Characters are an on and off thing in Chu-Bra. Some episodes they are interesting and engaging while in others they are stupid and annoying. None of them stood out as being original which is fine and all but it would have been nice. I can't even say any left an impression on me other than Komachi. His struggle with the club, wanting to be first in the school grade wise, and plain old boy issues with panties everywhere was entertaining to watch.

Like I said in my character of the day overall for Komachi I wouldn't suggest watching this anime unless you have watched EVERYTHING else. Even if you are a fan of the genre it probably won't live up to your standards. I struggled to keep watching and boy I was glad when it was over because the enjoyment level just wasn't there for me. If anything go into this anime with no standards and you might be ok. I like panties and all cause everyone has to wear em, but I don't really need or want a 12 year old explaining why these articles of clothing are amazing.

Ladies versus Butlers! & Chu-Bra 11

Ladies versus Butlers!

Loli Pina gives Akiharu a thank you ticket for two to Aqualand for helping her out with the doujin. He walks randomly to where the face off is happening and once he realizes that they are there at the fountain too he looks as dumbfounded as ever. Harem males are always so dumb...

Randomly they end up in a classroom to discuss their views. Croissant hair starts asking lots of questions about their date even though she knows most of it already. Akiharu walks in on them again but this time the tickets are in full view. Each girl clearly wants to go but the schemer starts playing her games when a random announcement by the oh so annoying one that gives the terrible speeches tells the whole school that there will be a sports meet. yay.....

As all relationships should be in anime, this one shall be decided through school sports... Different teams. One winner. Wild rumour start to go around at what the winner will get to do along with the looser. Let the games begin.

What is that fruitcake doing?

Watching these strange games is very very weird... What the hell is with the EELS?????? Eaten later by staff??? WEIRD!

Who will win Akiharu? XD

For once this anime shocked me in a good way instead of a bad one. The opening with the Revolutionary Girl Utena reference was LOL. Lots of anime this season sure have been putting their own take on some older anime.

 

 

 

 

 

The schools cultural festival is happening and the girls of the pantsu club help out other clubs because they technically can't be a part of it on their own. The drama club is putting on a play and they want Hayama to make the costumes and the other girls in the club to be in the play as well. They have all kinds of interesting costumes to go with it too. The cafe needs some maid costumes and they ask Hayama as well to do it for them.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Trouble unfolds as the bitch teacher finds out about Kiyono's photo shoot in the magazine and wishes to shut everything down because of it. Boob teacher pleads for her to go and look at the costumes that Hayama has made before making her judgment. Surprisingly she ends up loving the costumes and actually fends off a male teacher that suddenly appears to chew Hayama out.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After that happy ending with the show able to go on. Hayama finally tells the girls that she won't be around next year because of her brothers transfer. Kiyono knew all along and spilled it to Komachi. Komachi confronts Hayama about it and she begs him not to tell the others because she wants to let them know in her own way.

Will they really move in the next episode or not that is the question. I'm thinking something will happen so they won't have to. Or she'll be able to stay behind. I'd like it if they just moved on. Less chance of a sequel that way

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh and yes there was some fanservice in this episode. Hayama just NEEDED to see Kiyono matching bra and panties. I will admit I think they are cute and would wear them myself.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Chu-Bra 07-10

We start off with Komachi trying to clasp a bra from the front. Right in between the breasts... So of course he can't do it without thinking dirty thoughts. Why does HE need to worry about clasping a bra anyway without having those dirty thoughts?

The cat was always there for Komachi but where did this monkey face come from for Yako all of a sudden? Or did I miss something.

Now Komachi starts thinking like Hayama when he sees the girls underwear in some of his classmates dirty magazine... Very odd.

We start off with boob teacher having a dream about Hayama's brother oh my! When will they (if ever) finally get together? They go to an inn on the beach to have a meeting to discuss club plans of course we all know that this won't happen and they shall play away!

The kids start to make fun of boob teacher because she is wearing her school swimsuit. She claims it's the only one she has because she doesn't go swimming very often. She told them that she shall take the name tag off it to make it a "little" more mature. Unfortunately right in the middle where her huge boobs are, it ripped. So Yako clearly decides to try and cut it up more to make it "sexy"... It's very much time to go and buy a new swimsuit.

It rains suddenly so their trip to the beach is postponed by a day. Doesn't stop them from checking out the inns hot spring though. Hair... Down their... Children of this age seriously don't act like this. I hate that a lot of males that watch anime have this weird view on women. Sure it's "funny" to put in but don't go thinking this stuff always happens when women are alone.

Komachi had his brother pack his swimsuit.... man thong. Very fitting for a brotherly prank.

Time to learn about growing boobs... Bleh whatever this ep was SO boring I'm not even going to bother with it.

Bra unclasping races... That's her big idea for the school festival... Nothing like drawing perverted unwanted attention to the pantsu club.

We briefly talk about men bras for a moment. This was good for a laugh. Boob teachers fantasies with Hayama's brother are getting funnier and funnier.

We again face the issue for girls wanting bigger boobs. I still don't get why. Some girls will try anything... Why exactly did she try to use a vacuum???

uh oh big brother is being transfered.

2 more episodes to go. Hurry up and be over please. I can't see an anime to come that will be worse than this one. I bet they'll make a season 2... I will not be watching it.

Chu-Bra 05-06

Weird brother sister action going on. I know they are close because of the death of their parents and that their weird grandma taught them to love the same things... But still it's just weird. Even the wetting of the bed after the parents died is a little weird. But then again she's a kid and I suppose these things happen. Growing up without parents can be tough for a lot of kids especially at that age.

Mizuno knows Hayama's brother from when they went to school together. She of course has a huge crush on him.

Komachi decides to visit Hayama at home to tell her that he wants to help her get the panty club going at school because he feels bad that (for some reason) he was responsible for it getting shut down to begin with. (even though he wasn't to blame). At this point Komachi is just punishing himself to be around things "womanly" that he wants nothing to do with.

The girls start thinking about falling in love, in the bathtub of course... Hayama has never felt this feeling before and for some reason it makes her sad. Oddly it makes Shiraishi Haruka very happy that she hasn't felt love before. Might she possibly be a lesbian?

Enter bitchy girl Amahara Kiyono, who wants to learn about what "real" woman pantsu are like. Meaning lingerie. Sexy panties that make men's head spin. She is in it for the feminess of panties instead of comfort. She gets into an agrument with Hayama saying that appeal to others over functionality is the best way for panties and bras to be.

We randomly had a school inspection to make sure kids are wearing the right length skirts, no makeup, no hair dye, etc. I find this odd because we never did that at our school. But I suppose in the Japanese schools it's quite normal. We never had those medical exams in school either. Then again this might just be an anime thing as well. I'll be doing some research on this for sure.

Boob teacher gives a show in front of the mirror!

It's time to learn how to make a bra with all the different parts!

Despite the awkward moments this anime seems to give me, it's a rather cute tale about growing up as a girl with "odd" interests and being looked at like you are the weird one of the flock. I still am not overly enjoying the show but at least it makes me nervously laugh sometimes.
