First Impression: Stella Jogakuin Koutou-ka C³-bu

Stella Jogakuin Koutou-ka C³-bu focuses on the story of Yura Yamato a first year high school student who is invited to join C³ Stella Women's Academy's survival game club. The other members of the club are Karila Hatsuse the second year ace of the group, she specializes the SOCOM Mk23, Yachiyo Hinata a first year long range specialist, Sonora Kashima a third year who specializes in using dual desert eagle handguns, Rento Kirishima probably my favorite character of the group she is a first year and specializes with the AK47, finaly Honoka Mutsu a second year who is the group tactician.

I will say this before I continue I was terribly wrong I did the one thing that a reviewer should never do and blanket a show based on the director this being Masayoshi Kawajiri who's only other work was background design for Dantalian no Shoka which was by no means bad exept with little directing experience i felt this would be a second rate show, oh how wrong I was. The animation screamed Studio GAINAX and the production quality was nothing less then what I would expect from Pony Canyon

The OST was done by Kotaro Nakagawa who did music from Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion, Hayate the Combat Butler, Zettai Karen Children (OVA), and Zettai Karen Children: The Unlimited - Hyōbu Kyōsuke. The opening was also amazing with the VA voiced aspects along with the changing openings made it a sight to behold.


The characters were enjoyable and added a feel to the anime that is hard to find in the current anime listings. Along with the characters the story was very entertaining keeping me watching till the next episode and still wanting more.

All together a good anime with great staff and a entertaining story that will leave you wanting to watch more Stella Jogakuin Koutou-ka C³-bu is available to watch for american viewers on Crunchyroll with a recommendation to watch it now.
