Yes, Pacific Specialty is an insurance company. But it's run differently than most insurance companies. For over 30 years, we've been listening a little closer.
Synopsis Hikari Hanazono has always been able to do things that normal people cannot. As a child, she assumed no one could beat her—until she met Kei Takishima. Thinking she would win, Hikari challenged him to a match. But things didn’t go as planned; she lost not once but each time she rechallenged him.
From that point on, she has sworn to best Kei at everything, ranging from academics to athletics.To achieve her goal, Hikari enrolls in the same school as Kei—Hakusenkan, a prestigious institute for the wealthy. As a pair, they hold the top two rankings in school and are among seven of the academy's best students in a class known as Special A.While Hikari treats Kei as a rival, she is completely oblivious that he harbors hidden feelings for her. Together, the members of Special A deal with competition, friendship, and just a bit of love.Written by MAL Rewrite. Overall8Story7Animation8Sound7Character8Enjoyment9Special A is primarily a Shoujo Rom/Com that starts off slow but gets better as you go. Based on the inability of Hikari to understand Kei's true feelings for most of the plot. Normal laws of physics are generally ignored by the seeming superhuman duo of Kei and Hikari, who also are both at the top of their school academically.The story isn't the most original story ever, relying on the interaction of the seven members of the Special A (SA from now on) class and not involving many other characters. While somewhat predictable, it still manages to be entertaining most of the time if notfrustrating because of the general lack of development between the main couple's relationship.
(The anime does have several minor changes in its adaptation of the manga's story)The art style is pretty normal for your typical shoujo. The character models are somewhat odd in their unusually elongated limbs, but it's nothing that should ruin the show for you. The scenery and colors are good, if nothing fantastic, and I particularly liked the animation of the romance scenes where they would employ a pastel like color scheme which enhanced the scene.The sound, much like the art, is, for the most part, good while not great. The background music appropriate and never seemed to get annoying or repetitive.
The OPs and EDs have mixed opinions. The first OP and ED didn't really go over well with me and i doubt anyone would mind skipping right over them. The second OP and ED didn't seem to be much better at first either, but surprisingly they grew on me and ended up being pretty catchy.
I don't have any complaints about the VAs, they all seemed to fit their characters and Kei and Hikari's VAs particularly were good, bringing out the same character that was seen in the manga.The Characters were developed well, with the other members of the SA getting their own spotlight at times. While the main focus is on the Kei x Hikari pairing, there are a few other pairings that show up and will get episodes developing them. Obviously, being the two main characters, Kei and Hikari are developed the most and are both likable, though you might want to strangle Hikari a few times for being as stupid/ignorant as she is. Still, she definitely has her own great moments and you should be able to mostly ignore her own shortcomings and cheer her (and Kei) on.The enjoyment varies as the series goes on, starting off somewhat weak compared to its peak later on in the anime. The comedy of the anime compared to manga is just as good if not better than the original. The romance on the other. Overall5Story3Animation6Sound5Character2Enjoyment6Special A was anything but special.
It was very cliche, but it's hard to avoid that in shoujo anime. There was nothing mind-blowing about neither the music or the art.The story is pretty basic. In all honesty, I don't really think there is such a thing as orginality, but it's up to the people writing or directing to make it seem real. We know Shakespeare based Romeo and Juliet off a book someone had already written. How many times have we heard the story of 'I must defeat him.oh, wait I just found out he loves me?' But the issue isn't whether it was originalor not, it's simply that they didn't know how to move the plot efficiently.To me, one of the most important, if not the primary, thing to a story is character.
If you have believable characters, then the audience will automatically simpathize and invest their own emotions into those characters. Yes, it is a comedy. Most of the things in the show defied the laws of physic, to say the least, but take Akira for example. The problems of her past evolving Yahiro really gives her more depth.
As compared to Hariki who mentally retarded but ended up in the S.A. They should have developed a bit more of the characters. What's the point if it's just the same thing again and again? Yes, we know she thinks of him as his rival, but wouldn't it be more interesting if she had become aware of her own feelings on her own and had to defeat him in order to prove to herself she wasn't in love? Or what if he suddenly let her win (and I'm not talking about that crap challenge with the flower) what would she have done?
Would she have realized that she probably really didn't want to win?What I'm saying is that there could have been so much more done to make them more human. Why doesn't he let her win, anyway?
Does he feel she'll love him that way?That aside, though, I really liked the less fictional aspects of the show. It wasn't TOO bad, in all honesty.
I won't watch it again, and I got bored about half way though, but hey, it had it's good parts. I can't think of any NOW, but I remember liking somethings. Overall10Story9Animation9Sound10Character10Enjoyment10Delightful anime.From the very start you are drawn in.
Hikari is not the usual clumsy, slightly dumb, female protagonist. She's a warrior basically. Learning the art of wrestling from a young age, she defeated everyone. Then she meets Kei and he is the first to defeat her. Her mission in life becomes defeating Kei in every aspect of life.Fast forward several years.They are both in High school apart of 'Special A' a class of nine students who are the top 9 in the school.
Hikari, of course, is number 2 which she hates because the number one spot is held by none other thanher arch nemesis/rival Kei. What she doesn't know is that Kei is in love with her. And so the story begins.Story: The plot line is great so far. Kei keeps his feelings hidden but several things slowly reveal to Hikari that Kei might hold deeper feelings for her. She sees him only as her rival and is oblivious to most of these cues.
They compete episode after episode with Hikari slowly realizing that there might be more to the situation than she originally believes. Not the most original plot, but with the great characterization, animation, and plot circumstances, the story becomes great!Art: I love the art in this anime. Not the best in the word but good enough. Hikari is beautiful, Kei extremely handsome.
The fight scenes are fluid. Facial expressions and everything else are so hilarious, yet cute and appropriate. I love when they do the soft animation for scenes where Kei realizes or appreciates something new about Hikari.Update. I really like the art in this anime.
Even with the stick figures (which show up every once in a while to emphasize the long length of the characters legs and works to be more comical than anything else) the characters are drawn either cutesy or very attractive. I especially like the way the eyes are drawn in this anime.Sound: Not much to say here. Fitting with the theme of the show.:) Loves it. The opening theme is cute and appropriate. I tend to like the ending theme's more tan the opening, which is also the case for me in Special A.Character: Character development is what the show is all about.
Everyone has a very unique and distinct personality. Idiosyncrasies are utilized for comic effect and works very well.Enjoyment: 10! I love this show.
I'm a connoisseur of great shoujo anime and this definitely makes my list. You will be sucked into the hilarious cuteness of the show.Overall: 10. Just watch it.
I promise you wont regret it.:).
