Kagihime Monogatari Eikyuu Alice Rondo - 01

I'm at a loss at what to call this anime so I put in the full title, while the subbers choose Kagihime (Key Princess) I'd rather call it Eikyuu Alice (Eternal Alice) as it has more revelance and sounds cooler! Now let's take a trip to Wonderland!



Once upon a time in alternate Victorian England there is a loser fanboy called Aruto. He is a bookworm and devotes most of his time scribbling away at his own 'Alice' story. It's probably a hentai manga for all we know! One day - like much harem anime, loser bumps into a Playboy bunnies cat fighting in a library. Playboy Bunny no1 wins and thrusts her big throbbing key into the bouncy cleavage of the other girl. After much voyeurism, blushing and torn clothes - Playboy bunny gets 'the secrets' of this girl onto a bit of paper! Aruto must be thinking it's his wet dreams come true!
The next day, after recovering from the previous night's excitement, Aruto goes back to school. He meets Playboy Bunny who introduces herself as Arisu Arisugawa (how original) and then we all wonder how he never noticed her before. Aruto and Arisu talk, blush and talk some more before bumping into some megane-ko's along the way. There's more glasses in this anime than in an opticians - remember to be clever, you need MEGANE! :o
It seems Aruto has a little sister names Kuraha who has a big brother complex, even rejecting her best friends advances on her! And here I was hoping that I would see some shoujo-ai. Maybe next episode!
Arisu, Aruto and Kuraha have some tea and biscuits before Kuraha takes a sissy fit and transforms into a 'Alice user' aka Playboy Bunny. Arisu, not to be outdone gets a transformation sequence that we'd all like to think was orgasmic, but infact it was craptastic! After some mindless DBZ scenes later with more key thrusting, crying and blushing..the fight is interrupted by Aruto! Arisu then decides that Playboy Bunnies needs to stick together - or they might get key-raped too!



So what is the plot? From what I gathered: Alice Users need to fight each other to gain the secrets of their heart (a page from their 'book') which then would be collected into a book called Eikyuu Alice. Aruto is interested in reading this uber secret Eikyuu Alice and therefore he has two Playboy Bunnies at his side FOR GREAT JUSTICE!
I don't know why, but for being a first episode it was severely lacking everything but music which I thought was well done. It is below average in every respect and I wouldn't recommened it for download unless you like fanservice with nothing much else.

Overall: 4/10

A key is the new sword!
