I&#8217;ve done my research and I haven&#8217;t watched any anime with substantial fan service in it since October 2005, and I can&#8217;t remember the last show I saw that prominently featured panties: I was surprised to see <i>Girls&#8217; High<\/i> is swimming in them.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>This is a ten minute promo OVA to set up the concept for the <I>Girls&#8217; High<\/I> TV series: girls about to enter a private high school, excited about the prospects in store, break into their school the day before their entrance ceremony. They are shocked and appaled to find that girls might be as messy and disgusting as boys are.<\/p>\n<p>This is a very simple set up, filled with many unashamed panty shots and a perverted &#8220;camera man&#8221;. Shots that <i>could<\/I> frame centre to give a proper framing of a character&#8217;s face instead go down, down, into the skirt region. I&#8217;m reminded of what it was like to be a mere lad of 16 or 17 and researching fan service on the internet, and writing what one might call an &#8220;uninformed critical essay&#8221; on the matter.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s fun stuff, featuring everyone&#8217;s favourite person of the moment, Noto Mamiko, as the bespectacled member of the group. It seems like I&#8217;m now watching three shows with her in it after coming down from <I>Monster<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p><i>Girls&#8217; High<\/i> is the anime that I don&#8217;t normally go for but sometimes envy those who write about it.
