Very good presentation of well known character archetype. The premise was a bit...peculiar! And the whole ''trying to get the stamps to get out of school'' was kinda meh if not ridiculous.
A good harem watch none the less but there are a lot better choices if you are pressed for time. For Fans

main cast
The Private Aichi Symbiosis Academy was originally a high school for high-class girls, when it became co-ed, the girls, out of fear, asked to be permitted to bring weapons to school. When that was enforced, a five-member vigilante corps-like organization called the "Supreme Five Swords" was also formed.
After many generations, the five swords eventually became a group which corrected problematic students and such the academy started proactively accepting such students in order to correct them.
Nomura Fudou was sent to that school after being part of a huge brawl, what will he do when the only options he has after enrolling are being expelled from that school too or being corrected the way the rest of the male students there were... by being forced to dress and act like girls!

One of those series where judging a book by its cover is definitely the wrong choice. I was initially a bit put off from the cross dressing portion of it until I realized the MC is not a piece of that.
Sure, there were a lot of expected outcomes in the series, but it was done tastefully. There weren't the moments where you went, "Why am I watching this?"
It's humorous, action packed, and has an interesting premise to it. Characters have depth, development, and there are plenty of moments where enjoyment simply fills the scene.
Definitely worth the watch.

Surprisingly good watch (Mark for stupid faces in this anime: 11/10). Good action + comedy + harem = pleasant, easy title. The ending was quiet strange, but didn't spoil the rest (or maybe everything was strange here? Probably! Still I ate it gladly ~;3).

Definitely an above average harem, action series. Powerful protagonist, good action and plot. The plot is split into two parts, one regarding the past and the other regarding the present. More gore than what I expected. Definite Must see for fans of harem/action :D

Nomura (male lead) attends a school where the girls are armed and guys dress up as girls... except him. The characters mesh well together, the fighting is decent and overall enjoyment is there. There isn't anything that stands out from this show, its very by the numbers, but if you're a fan of harem, action and some fanservice, give it a try.

This show was a lot of fun. A good mix of story, action, and even character development (to a point). The plot's simplistic, as it typically is with high-school-battle-action-tower-climb stories, but I think the writing was better than average. I think the only thing that really bugged me (aside from some excessive gratuitous violence toward the end) was the personality changes of most of the girls. Too many elements were omitted, making a development into a harem story just feel... forced. Decent show for its type. A fun enough watch. But maybe just a little too heavy-handed on the "you kicked my ass so now I'm in love with you!" element.

MC DOES NOT CROSS DRESS! That is the most important point, because you will miss out on an awesome series. The MC enters a school where all the men have been forced to cross dress, and the MC makes it his duty to fight the system and be his own person. Now add to the mix the MC being pretty strong in both skill and morals, you get a really enjoyable series. The real tags of the show should be Romance, Harem, Fighting, Comedy.

This is one of the few jewels we have in the echhi genre, where our main character isnt a little bitch, but instead a badass.if you are tired of your generic stuff and want to see a good ecchi anime that isnt entirely focused on fanservice, but also has some cool battles then i recommend to give this one a try, you wont be dissapointed.
And hey there are still some good waifus in it :P

To anyone reading the summary and thinking "a cross-dressing anime, I'll pass"... wait!
This summary is pretty hilarious because it doesn't mention the main thing: that the MC is the one boy who is opposed to cross-dressing.
This anime is going to be a generic harem fighting show with swords and cute girls and a somewhat badass MC. And no, he doesn't cross-dress.
I see a good future for it and the plot is heading in an interesting direction!

female, , blue eyesThis character has blue-colored eyes., drill hairAn easy way to tell if a female character in Japanese media is of high social standing is to not look for a crown or an Ermine Cape, but to look at the front of her head. Specifically, look for two long, curled locks of hair, framing the face. If she has them, she either is high class or acts like it.
Needless to say, this is pretty much mandatory for the Ojou. Some Elegant Gothic Lolitas also sport this hairstyle., ojou-sama laughA type of haughty laughter typical of rich young girls, as well as older rich women. Generally sounds like a high-pitched "OHOHOHOHOHOHO"., whipA whip is a tool designed to strike animals or people to aid guidance or exert control over them through pain compliance or fear of pain, though they can be used without pain as additional pressure aid or visual directional cue in equestrianism.

Most are designed for use on animals, but some were specifically developed for flagellation of human targets., wigA wig is a head covering made from human hair, animal hair, or synthetic fiber. It is a false hairpiece used to alter a character`s hairstyle.
If the wig is an important part of the image/appearance of a given character/guise, tag the wig color with the appropriate hair color tag. If the character wears a wig as a one-off accessory of sorts, do not tag the colour of the wig., yellow hairThe character has yellow hair. This does not map precisely to real-life blond hair.
