When they cover most of the screen it makes you feel like you can touch them with your fingers or your tongue if youre that shameless like I am. When you see a title that is equally as shameless as the perverted little fellow inside of you like Bikini Warriors your instinctive going into it will be about what you would expect. Once you get rid of the bias of looking at it as a threeminute short series and dumb fanservice youll realize that Bikini Warriors offers more than just the latter. To describe Bikini Warriors in a nutshell it is a fanservice anime that makes fun of RPG tropes specifically in JRPGs. The one other aspect that it makes fun of is itself this is where the charm of Bikini Warriors takes its form. Like much good ecchi anime whose sole purpose is to titillate its viewers it does not try to take its gimmick too far into territory that contradicts its original tone. With a threeminute episodic running time any fanservice anime of Bikini Warriors caliber fits into this running time perfectly. If this were a 24minute anime or a 12minute short the gimmick wouldve died by the 2nd episode. Three minutes is long enough for Bikini Warrior to showcase its fanservice at a better pace to the point where there are not as many jokes that seem like filler to move the plot along. 1000https://gonzonyan.files.wordpress.com/2015/09/wieyvgabwbe6boab2paw.jpg Many of the satirical jokes that come up are right on point with many mechanics and tropes that fans of RPGs love about RPGs or sometimes get annoyed by them. One example of this is a joke involving the girls selling off all of their items healing or otherwise to afford a powerful weapon to get through a dungeon only to find another in a random chest in that dungeon. There is usually one trope that is the centerfocus of each episode of which I wont spoil the rest so that interested people will be surprised going into it. While a few episodes do not hit the right notes on target most of them are a riot if you are a fellow RPG fan like myself. Now we get to our lovely cast of voluptuous ladies who are about as twodimensional as one could get from a story perspective. However I can at least set aside this negative only a little based on how Bikini Warriors does its shtick without the attempt at being serious with its premise. Going one by one the Fighter girl is probably my favorite of the four just from her gorgeous figure in that bikini and how funny her stubborn personality is by going through this fantasy RPG journey with her party members. The Mage girl is quite a fan favorite. It is my 2nd favorite considering how hilariously emotional she is at any given scenario and how her cute bikini is the stuff of legends. Surprisingly the Dark Elf girl is my least favorite considering how forgettable most of her contributions are to the comedy compared to the others. And lastly is the Paladin girl who has her fair share of decent moments but not as memorable as the Fighter and Mage. 1000https://gonzonyan.files.wordpress.com/2015/09/commiebikiniwarriors016d6a1bb3mkv154b7a05.jpg To put into perspective the good and bad of Bikini Warriors art and animation the art side of things is good but the animation is left a lot to be desired. The character designs of the girls are pretty sexy and fabulous to the eyes but it is pretty apparent that the length of the anime is synonymous with the amount of budget they spent on it. Many shots involve characters standing around with their mouths moving to lipsync the dialogue. Whats even more hilarious is how they always skip towards the tail end of a boss fight so they wouldnt have to animate as much. I realize that threeminute shorts arent enough to facilitate this amount of animation but at least make it look like youre trying and not looking lazy in animating it. I like my boob and booty shakes to have some substance thank you very much. The title itself Bikini Warriors will already be judged from just looking at the title alone. If youre an ecchi connoisseur like me then your curiosity has already peaked by the time youve read it. Others will probably thumb their nose at just the thought that someone would make something this shameless. As Ive done before I will point out that this can be a short series that someone who does not care for fanservice but loves RPGs will find something worthwhile for about 36 minutes of their lives. That is nearly as much time as watching one hentai video so what have you got to lose? Grade: B
