I feel I have to write this review because a lot of people just aren't getting it. This show is not meant to be taken seriously; it's a joke. This is not some romantic comedy where the characters drastically change and have inspirational quotes. This show is just randomness. It's like a poo poo joke that never ceases to be funny. So if you're thinking about watching this show ask yourself these questions. Do I like random acts of comedy or do I like strong plots? Do I like generic characters or do I like characters that change over time? This is just for the newcomers who I feel might be discouraged by the previous reviewers who just don't understand real comedy.

I remember watching a couple scenes out of context from Kill me baby on youtube months ago and to be fair, they were random enough to be funny. The characters were quirky and the situations were absurd, which is just what any comedy of this type needs to be succesful or at the very least enjoyable. It was immediately apparent as soon as I watched the very first episodes that I was wrong. Kill me baby is the kind of series that sets a ridiculous premise and then never lives up to it, the kind of comedy that presents itself as completely demented and over-the-top but never leaves the comfort zone of character-based jokes, the kind of experience that hypes itself to stardom but settles for mediocrity instead - It simply doesn't have enough to push the show forward. The ridiculous premise quickly degenerates into a mere gimmick due to sheer repetition of the same trite, formulaic jokes. They all play out the same way: Yasuna does something silly, she gets knocked out by the annoyed Sonya the assassin, while Agiri the ninja does something random, if she is around while that happens… you can generally predict how the joke plays out before it even starts, which is exactly as exciting as it sounds. But beyond that, three characters are simply not enough to carry a comedy show for twelve full-length episodes. Any succesful comedy series I can think of – let's say Azumanga Daioh – had a diverse enough set of side characters that prevented the show from reaching the point of stalemate and kept the show relatively fresh despite the length. At this point I wonder how Kill me Baby would have fared if it was a 3-minutes short series… as a friend of mine commented on the series: “it was tolerable back when I watched it weekly”, which is something I can honestly believe, as from my experience, the more often I watched an episode of Kill me Baby, the harder it was to pull through it and by applying that rule on a more abstract level, then you're better off not watching it at all. The opening track, "Kill Me Baby", arguably the worst opening song for a show of all time pretty much represents the show as a whole - weird at first, annoying and repetitive after you hear it once. Stay away.

Kill Me Baby is one interesting anime to watch and to review, but particularly to evolve with the characters and how you relate to their presence on each episode and the show in general, which makes it sort of slow started, but ends up being an endearing 4-koma. So, here we go: Story - 6 Look at it however you want, this is, at the end of the day, just another slapstick show about wacky schoolgirls. The story isn't anything special, and, at first it doesn't even seem to have a story per se. However it's not the same as saying it's a bad thing, because on this sort of shows, the focus isn't the story, and it's more about providing a background where the characters can show what they're worth at making us spend a good 20 mins each week. Art - 6 Not a masterpiece of detail and fluid overwhelming animation, but again, it's a show that doesn't demand such a thing, it's just, right for what the concept of KMB really is. The designs are very simple, the backgrounds have that borderline children anime watercolor innocence to it, but overall, the characters are very cute and expressive, and look chibi. Sound - 7 After an OP that sounds so irritating at the first 2 episodes but ends up getting unavoidable to listen to each week, and after an ED that was awesome since the first day i heard it and even became a popular track for remixes and loops on the internet, what's left to mention is the good job that was done on how the sound carries many of the logic and punch lines behind a huge variety of the hilarious skits along the show. In the end, while the quality of the sound isn't anything of intricate quality, we see a show where the sound plays as much of a role to make things funny as the visuals do. Character - 8 We have 2 main characters: blonde assassin/student from Russia, Sonya, and short/brown haired airhead Yasuna. Sonya keeps feeling bothered about Yasuna's uncanny will to be friends, and have fun together, and she often comes out as being an impossible to like character due to her cruelty, but which is an interesting approach on a girl which is supposed to be a cold blooded assassin. Yasuna starts the show as the merely annoying dumb girl who always ends up being a victim despite wanting to be friends so badly, however the same insistence of her that feels a bit annoying for how dumb and masochistic it seems early in the show, ends up making Yasuna an endearing character with a simple mind but a huge heart, as she always worried about Sonya and tries to straighten her way out of murderous jobs. These characters are enveloped in an actually touching undertone which never falls off from the humour priority of KMB, but is felt through each time we see Yasuna fall innocently, climaxing in the last episode which, without spoiling, actually made me cry. As the series approach an ending, i couldn't get enough of Yasuna's voice acting and preciousness and even Sonya managed to become somewhat likeable as she's slowly softened up (but not much) by her loyal classmate. Given that "Character" was the stat i gave a better rating, it's getting a bit long, but i shall hurry it up with the 3rd main/support character, and perhaps the most popular of the whole show given that many people couldn't see beyond Yasuna's early annoying masochistic antics, Agiri-san simply had, i believe, no defects (perhaps the only problem was not giving her enough air time). Agiri-san is complicated to describe, with a presence and voice that are as feeble as they are powerful, like a drowzee but aware, airheaded but smart or talented but effortless character, she was purely awesome and with a voice as memorable as Yasuna's (except, i believe most people felt captivated by Agiri from her very first appearance) and was one of the driving reasons i waited eagerly for the next episode. Always linked to wacky unexpectedly justifiable ninja techniques with a twist, Agiri often appeared as a random element of surprise, to help out Yasuna and Sonya's troubles or to aid the scenes that otherwise could become too dull. There's a 4th character that appears only on about 3 or 4 scenes and the OP, a character that seems pointless, she has no name, and her purpose in appearing is the simple joke (i believe that's the joke) that she's useless and never noticed. Enjoyment - 7 This was a show that needed your patience to win your heart because, i understand that, other than Agiri-san, it's not very compelling from the start, until Yasuna's voice and attitude get deep into your head and you get to hope Sonya's ice might be eventually melted somehow. Some early episodes had plenty of dry and dull jokes as well as some drink spilling hilarious ones, whoever with a not very favourable ratio between the two. Overall it does get much better with time because you get to know and antecipate the characters and the type of puns more and more. Personally, early on, i thought i'd end up giving a 6 at best, to this show, but i ended up connecting to the characters more than i imagined, and even got emotional in the last ep. Check it out sometime!

Overview: Remember Hetalia? The series that used stereotypical characters to represent countries and got WAY more popular in the US than it actually deserved? Imagine you took the characters Italy, Germany, and Japan and put them in a highschool by themselves. Now keep the dynamic and everything about the characters the same only change them from male to female. Lastly get rid of the few fragments of history Hetalia actually had. That is Kill me Baby! Plot and characters: 2/10 There really isn't a plot. It is just random shenanigans and the airhead Yasuna (Italy) annoying the short fused "assassin" Sonya (Germany). Sometimes the mysterious Agiri(Japan) shows up, but she doesn't really add much. Hetalia wasn't very funny or well written in the first place, but it had highly talented voice actors for the English dub. They could simply yell stupid shit and it would be funny. Unfortunately, this series has voice actors who just don't give a shit! They don't want to work on this series any more than the viewer wants to watch it! It would have at least had a few laughs if it had Patrick Seitz screaming in his terrible German accent. Animation: 2/10 It is the same moe style animation that Hetalia used with cutesy character designs and very little background art detail or animation budget. Sound: 1/10 The soundtrack gave me an ulcer. Enjoyment: 2/10 I think it may have had 1 scene that was sort of funny. This was based on a 4 panel Newspaper manga where there is only time to set up a quick and simple joke each week similar to Garfield or Dilbert. It can be quite challenging to adapt an anime from that kind of format, although Azumanga Daioh pulled it off. Overall: 2/10 This is one of those lousy anime that follow in the wake of a popular series and try to rip it off to make a quick dollar. Whenever a blockbuster movie is released, some terrible company like The Assylum or Full Moon will make a cheap ripoff like Snakes on a Train. This is like the Assylum ripoff of Axis Powers Hetalia. Be afraid! Be very afraid!

At first I when it was one of the latest shows that came out every month, Reading it’s title, I thought it was something like Another, where there are a lot of murders, Suicidal deaths and accidents… Though it didn’t turn out that way… Even so Kill me Baby is a very fun anime to watch, though some might judge it based on the animation but the show is fun… just try to watch it… some famous dubbers such as rie kugimiya is even a part of it… Kill Me Baby : Baby, Please Kill me is a fun-packed show filled with laughter that’ll make you pee is your seats! (I’m not saying I did that! XD)

I can watch this soo many times over and still giggle at the gags. Such an ingenious creation. There's no storyline just stand alone episodes follow what I presume a school year, the comedy side of things are fresh and is both cute and funny. I would highly recommend this to any audience as it pretty much covers all unless you are without any form of humor.

Kill me Baby is a slice of life comedy from 2012. It's based on an ongoing manga by Kaduho that started in 2008 and the anime was adapted by J.C. Staff. They're not exactly strangers to either slice of life or comedic works, having also done such anime as Azumanga Daioh, Hachimitsu to Clover, Potemayo, Love Stage & Nodame Cantabile. So, given that history, the worst we can expect is sub-par and the best is excellent. Then again, they could always hit a new low or high. Let's examine the series and see how it compares. Story: Yasuna is an ordinary student. Her best friend, Sonya, is an assassin. The two of them go to school and spend a lot of time together. This results in all kinds shenanigans. So, this is essentially a school comedy where the twist is that one of the characters is an assassin. The humour is based around a blend of quirky character comedy and physical humour. The biggest flaw with the comedy is definitely that some of the pay offs are really obvious. For example, there's a joke where Yasuna is telling Sonya to treat her like a dog and asks to be given a command. The first command you'd guess is probably the exact one that gets given. There are other jokes like that but, in all fairness to the series, most of them only partly rely on the pay off while partly relying on the character reactions for the humour and the reactions are usually pretty funny. The humour, in general, works quite well. The physical comedy is kind of reminiscent of the physical comedy in Azumanga Daioh. The school comedy is a bit more similar to A-Channel with every episode containing short comedic moments, usually only thinly connected to each other, broken up by transitions. In general, it is entertaining and funny stuff. Where the assassin gimmick pays off is that it allows for some different scenarios than you would normally get in this type of anime and some responses that are unique. It gives the series its own sense of identity as opposed to the usual “group of high school girls doing every day things in a quirky fashion.” Of course, different isn't necessarily good and there are certainly times when the humour here doesn't work. In addition to the aforementioned obvious jokes there are times when the physical humour goes a bit too far and crosses the line into being a bit uncomfortable. At least it doesn't take the physical humour anywhere close to the degree that Bokusatsu Tenshi did. In terms of non-comedic elements, the transitions are awful. Every episode has multiple transition screens where the lines “kill me baby” & “baby please kill me” will be spoken before moving on. It's not even the length of them that's the issue so much as it is that they're annoying. I do have to give the series some credit as well. The ending does have a fairly sweet moment that really works. Characters: This series is also different from the usual school comedy in that the cast of characters is pretty small. We have our two major characters, Yasuna and Sonya. We also have Agiri, a ninja and Unusued character, a girl who shows up on rare occasions and never interacts with the other three. The interactions between Yasuna and Sonya are a bit reminiscent of those betwixt Yomi & Tomo from Azumanga. Yasuna is the high energy, crazy one who gets into all kinds of trouble while Sonya is the more subdued one who gets dragged into the mess. Agiri is more a really laid back character who actively trolls the other two while Unused character just really wants to get involved in things but can never manage it. For comedic purposes, it works pretty well but it can be a bit much at times. Here's the thing, when you've got a really high energy character in a comedic work they can be great, but you start to grow a bit weary of their hijinks when you don't get a break from them. With Azumanga, they gave you that break by having segments that focused on other characters. You don't get that here since Yasuna and Sonya are there constantly. Art: Kill Me Baby uses even more basic art than a lot of slice of life anime. The background characters are largely indistinct white blobs. The backgrounds themselves frequently look very basic and bland. The character designs of those few characters we actually get are based around having very plain bodies with simple heads that are too large for the bodies. The animation is basically functional but nothing great. The best it gets is the dance in the ending theme tune and that's not exactly at the level of the dances from the PreCure franchise. Sound: The big weakness of the acting comes during the transitions. Every time they say the line “Baby, please kill me” they try to do it in a different, quirky way and a good ninety percent of the time it turns out to be really annoying. It's like they were trying to judge how bad they could make them before audiences started turning the program off whenever it reached one. Little did they realise that a mute button exists. That being said, our main cast does a good job. Takabe Ai, Akasaki Chinatsu, Tamura Mutsumi & Kugimiya Rie all deliver their lines very well and it really serves to make the comedy work, when the comedic moments are strong. In terms of music, the background music works nicely. I liked the ending theme tune, didn't like the opening. The problem with the opening is that, like with the transitions, it's overly fond of repeating itself and it uses a lot of spoken words. It's less a song and more people talking while loud music plays. The effect is outright obnoxious. Ho-yay: There's quite a bit. Yasuna is very enthusiastic about getting closer to Sonya. She wants them to run along the beach like a couple and there's more than one part where she very blatantly wants Sonya to touch her. I think she might be a masochist looking for Sonya to “punish” her. I also think Sonya is totally okay with that. Final Thoughts: Kill Me Baby is a pretty entertaining series. There are parts that are too obvious or otherwise don't work but, as a whole, it's bloody funny and the twist of having an assassin character does work in its favour. In the end, I give it a solid 7/10. It's a good series, in spite of its flaws. Next week I'll move on to a request I've been working at for a while, Hunter x Hunter 2011.

Kill Me Baby is a practical piece of work. Since it is merely an animation aimed at bringing 4-koma gags to life on the screens of the audience, its budget is a fraction of major shows that focus on graphical excellence, deep and intriguing plotlines, and of course character development that is well fleshed out. Nevertheless, Kill Me Baby is an anime that competently makes use of the meagre budget as well as handling the transition from 4-koma gags to an anime reasonably well. Considering that it is a comedy show, and as such aimed towards squeezing a laugh out of every person who watches it, I have to admit that KmB does a good job in that respect, but is essentially a rather flat piece of work in all other respects. However, I should clarify that that is through no fault of the anime itself. 4-koma gags do not make for a good story that can carry an anime throughout its airing. Based on its source material, we can safely conclude that KmB is not a series that attempts to develop that. It is basically a succession of animated material that is just slapped together and packaged as an anime. However, its main selling point is of course, hilarity. And I can guarantee you, hilarity definitely ensues. That being said, the anime does not have any semblance of continuity and parts of it do not make sense at all to the casual viewer. This again can be attributed to the nature of the source material. If I were to judge KmB while taking that into account, I would say that KmB is actually a game attempt by the studio to create a good anime. Not "good" in the sense of thought-provoking, loaded with heart-aching drama or having bucketfuls of fanservice, but rather that it achieves what it sets out to accomplish, which is to brighten up someone's day. Hmm... art. Now, the art of KmB is flat. Very flat. The show looks like something drawn by the moderately talented preschooler. However, one needs to remember that the show does not have excessive budget on which to blow on those gorgeous, brilliant graphics that cause people to stare, mesmerised at the screen. Thus, the art being of mediocre standard is actually forgivable in this case. The sound part is definitely mediocre. The same soundtracks are reused so often that by the time I finished the anime I could almost hum all of 'em. Mention weird songs and KmB's OP comes to mind. Honestly, I could not make heads nor tails of that song, from the animation to the lyrics. However, I feel that the ED is a significant improvement over the OP, not that it would rank in any charts. I don't believe that there's any need to talk about the characters in detail. Essentially, we have Yasuna = airhead girl, Sonya = paranoid assassin, Agiri = weird ninja and even an Unused Character just for the heck of it. Strange that they called upon Kugimiya Rie for Unused Character though. Overall, the characters are just there doing silly things for the audience's enjoyment. The voice actors were decent and were able to effectively convey the comical moments so that the mood pervades the audience. Frankly, even though its other aspects were not headed for excellence, KmB really tries very hard in trying to let the audience enjoy it through its funny, hilarious gags. In that, it has succeeded well, in fact exceeding all expectations. The main reason I had for giving KmB my rating was due to me enjoying the series so much and laughing till my sides ached. The hilarious moments will have people literally ROFL. Overall, KmB is still a decent anime. I'll say this again: its potential was severely hampered by both the funding and the original source material it had to work with. Despite that, KmB makes the most of its situation. Kudos to the people in charge for managing to eke out a thoroughly enjoyable anime from such limited resources. I'm giving it a score of 6, mainly because I enjoyed the comedic interaction between the characters as well as the truly funny gags that successfully made the anime a must-watch for people looking for a comedy anime series.

Kill Me Baby is interesting in name alone, which is what led me to watch it. The premise, however, is extremely limited and it shows. It can be argued that this is because it's a 4-koma manga adaptation, but with many studios being able to pull this off and make must see series out of them, it leaves little excuse. The idea just isn't strong enough for an anime adaptation. The art style is a typical super watered down moe slice of life style, and the animation isn't particularly good. The backgrounds are actually more interesting than the actual characters. Sound usually doesn't bother me much in a series so my opinion isn't worth its salt here. But I felt it just did the job, with the exception of the OP. I genuinely hate Kill Me Baby's OP. Characters are pretty bland. You have a ninja that's just a scam artist, the ditzy character, and the badass that's scared of stuff character. You get a feel for their interactions quickly and once you do the overused jokes get stale. I chuckled maybe once in my entire time watching Kill Me Baby. I don't think you'd be missing anything if you chose to just pass this one by without a second thought. I found the first episode to be annoying but whether I just got used to it after watching the rest or it got better I can not really be sure. It does it's job as a thing to watch, not so much to entertain.

Kill me Baby! is something I've seen called fantastic, terrible, or somewhere in between. After watching it, I have a few things of note to say about it. I'll start with the cons because I'd like to end on a good note. While the art style for the characters is very cute, the actual art itself is lacking. There are quite a few scenes where the background looks like a sketch that was never completed. Sometimes the background is in black and white even. Characters are not very interesting to me. Oribe is delightfully adorable, and so is Sonya at times, but overall they aren't really interesting. Probably the worst part about the show is that the comedy is really lacking. Most of the jokes are pretty much the same as others, and it is the reason so many people dislike this anime. Any laughing is going to come from the deliverance of the jokes (I'll note on this again), not how clever or funny the jokes actually are. Now for the pros, which I believe outweigh the cons. The art style is god damn adorable. Oribe and Sonya are so cute together! So is Agiri! I can't get over how cute this anime is. Secondly, this anime is just a great time. Even if the jokes aren't great, there isn't anything about watching it that isn't fun. I really had fun watching this. THE MUSIC. My lord the OST for this anime is really good. The OP and ED more than anything are so fun(ny). The best thing about this anime is the voice acting. Holy shit it is really, REALLY good. You can tell from the OP that the voice actors fit the characters so well. All of the voice acting here is so well done that sometimes it makes the jokes funny. Oribe has a particularly adorable voice, and without it I would not have enjoyed the show as much. In my opinion, the VA carry this anime. So overall the show is a lot of fun, but it isn't fantastic. A lot is lacking in the comedy department, but I think the voice acting carries this anime enough for me to recommend it. Just don't be surprised if you don't enjoy it, because many people REALLY dislike this show, and for understandable reasons.

SPOLIERS—- May Include spoilers Introduction -Make the kill me,and make me your baby! Its a random anime! Kill me baby is a short 13 episode Anime made by J.C. Staff during spring of 2012.If you want a random anime that doesnt take it self seriously then this is the anime for you. Content-The anime contains 13 episode along with several short speical episodes that count as one episode itself (OVA).As far as the genre it its a comedic slice of life that can get very random and will not feature a plot whatsoever,instead it uses the basic settings it gives the viewers as the base for the each episode.This is also a SFW anime with mild cartoonish violence and little to no swearing. The whole anime itself reminds me of saturday morning cartoons,simple and fun to watch. Plot- The anime itself doesnt really have a plot,think of it as the simspons or a comedic sitcom,where it uses the basic settings of the show to make every episode possible.With that being said the setting its a typical high school with two main characters who fit the typical 90s cartoon style AKA the cheerful, and dimwitted character(yasuna) along side with the grumpy,and smart character(sonya).This works for this kind of anime,because it doesnt take it self seriously in anyway,if the anime was a plot driven, realstic drama then yes it would fail. Yasuna is the main character here,she is the typical high school girl..well she is unique by being being silly and loud,while sonya the blonde haired girl is a hitman who happens to attend school,obviosuly this anime just pokes fun at the ideas and never gets serious,you will never see a gun being pulled or anyone get killed,so the anime knows its limits.Yasuna often bugs sonya with any little thing she can come up with,such as playing hide and seek or playing a word game.This is where the anime often gets it punchlines from,where it always ends up as sonya being fed up and ends up hurting yasuna,followed by the classic quote of “sonya you’re so mean waaaa” There is also a ninja character who is really just another high school girl being a troll and messing around,often tricking yasuna and sonya with her magic tricks(illusions) many people say she makes the anime what it is,and i agree with that,she is an excellent character all on her own. Then we have unused character,i have no idea why is she even in the anime,she is useless.The creators barely give her screen time,it would have been nice if she became a main character as well and she redeems her self..but it doesnt happen. Music/voice- The music is pretty simple and goes along well with the cheerful nature of this anime,and includes many japanese elements as well which is a plus. The opening song is pretty cute and well done as it includes the voices from the anime,while the end credits have a catchy dance music which is enjoyable as wel. Now this may be a surprise but i recommend watching this in english DUB,the voices are very well done.the voice acting is never monotone and the english voices sound very similar to the japanese ones,so if you enjoy watching animes dubbed then go for it.The english voice helped put the nail on the coffin for giving me that old comedic cartoon vibe. Animation/Art- this is a comedic anime,so perhaps the best animation isnt needed but it looks cheap and old,and for a short anime they could of done better…again its just a comedic anime so it doesnt nessarily need it. The art style is cute and goes well with the cheerful nature of the anime,reminds me of lucky star and yuyushiki. Appeal- This anime is only around a year old,but the anime has been well recevied by viewers and parodies such as the end credit’s dancing was done in yuru yuri so the appeal is there,and it is a likeable anime without a doubt. Final opinion -Kill me baby was a very enjoyable anime,filled with laughs and heart warming moments.However the main problem with the anime is the randomness it contains.At times the anime may have a hilarious episode while the next one may be dull and have too many missed jokes.it feels as if they tried a new idea every episode which isnt so bad,but at the same time i just wanted to skip an entire episode.Also i know this anime isnt serious but it was hard to beleive that sonya would even be yasuna’s friend after all the things she does to her(teases her way too much) other than that this anime was funny and cute so i recomemnd this for slice of life fans and ones who like random funny animes. Hope you enjoy this review Arigatou ^_^
ToshinoYoshii

Rohling
This one is not easy to rate. Art is simple, story not even there. I really liked the intro, because it's so whacky. Everyone is out of sync, video has nothing to do with the anime, i still like it. Outtro was plain compared to the intro. You can't even give spoilers here, because you there is nothing you can spoil, besides three girls just doing antics. To be honest, i don't know why i liked this. BUT when you got some drinks or had some weed it really is good for a ride. WARNING: Don't look more than two episodes at a time, your brain will meld. Again, was fun even if i don't know why, just try 1-2 episodes and see if you like it.

This anime have quite a simple plot based on the 4'koma: three schoolgirls doing cute, dummy&funny things. Actually, one of them, Oribe Yasuna, is a stereotypical schoolgirl, second, Sonya-chan, is a killer, and the third, Agiri-san, is a ninja. The whole thirteen episodes we're seeing many jokes, but, as in the everage comedy, most of them we saw somewhere. One detail near the end: "unused characther" really attracted my sympathy because she is trying to do her best and failed every time, every episode when she appears. Maybe, she was the main reason why this show got from me six, not five. In conclusion I want to say: "If you want to relax -- I recommend you "Kill Me Baby". If you want something serious -- "Kill Me Baby" is a wrong decision". 6/10.

This is an amazing anime.i can say its one of my favorite but... it doesnt mean its everyone favorite. i have a few reason why is some people dont think it is as good as i think it is. so this is my thought of this anime Story (8/10) The story is pretty boring. nothing interesting about the story , it basically about a highschool girl that have an assassin as a friend. but i know this anime is not really focused about the story.but in this anime its actually a pretty good thing because, it feel like, if you watch this anime not from the start or the first episode, you still know what is going on with the story. i'm pretty sure you can start watching in the 5th episode and still know what is going on. so, overall , the story is not that interesting Art (8/10) Some people may think that this anime have a pretty good art because its fitting with the theme of "Comedy" . but sometimes people don't like that. some people like an anime that is more realistic looking. i can see people like that hate the art of this anime. but some people think its not bad of an artstyle, it looks kinda "Boring" i should say. even some say the art is "Effortless" . its maybe because it was made in 2012 and theres anime better looking that this anime existed. but of course, some people still think that, this anime artstyle is good as an comedy anime. its simple and cute, it almost look like a chibi imo. so its pretty good Sound (9/10) The OP is pretty catchy. but, i can see people doesn't really like it because it feels like the whole lyrics for the OP is just "Kill me baby" really. but, the OP is very funny and fitting as the genres of this anime is "Comedy". The ED is very catchy and the animation of it, is, cute i should say. The ED of this anime is Very Catchy and fun to listen to. The OST is also very good! nothing much to say about the OST. So, The sound is very good! Characters (9/10) We Have here Yasuna oribe, which is possibly a highschool student and her friends, Sonya and Goshiki Agiri. Sonya as an Assassin and Agiri as an Ninja. We Have Yasuna as an easy going and foolish person with Sonya as a strong cruel person. and last Agiri as a Mature and Calm person. it made a kinda interesting little story out of these character. i still dont know how to explain it but i love these character because their personality made a great comedy anime. i love them Enjoyment (7/10) The Jokes in this anime is kinda out of places and doesnt makes sense or fitting in some scenarios. it is clever with the characters and the artstyle is very fitting to a "Comedy" anime. and the OP and the ED is also pretty funny! but the jokes is sometime. too constant and repetitive, like it need a little break and then give it more jokes. it just throw a bunch of jokes at once and it is kinda overwhelming sometimes. but the most time it is time right and it is fun to watch. some scene is hilarious, overall, this anime is pretty enjoyable. So Overall 9/10

Mega753? Yes, It's not a high budget comedy with a big plot or anything like that. It's a show to watch one or two episodes from time to time to relax and laugh a bit, it doesn't have plot at all, the episodes don't correlate with each other, it's just two main characters interacting with silly stuff with help of 3rd one that comes from time to time. It looks like a 3 minute show you know but they managed to pull it to 25minutes and for me it was entertaining, i loved the OP and ED yeah the formula it's repetitive it's Yasuna trying to make something funny and Sonya just ends up getting angry and hitting her, yeah it's simple but they apply it to some original situations and it ends up being funny, at least to me m95okFbaJOr3 The only thing i encounter a bit disturbing was that in some moments i felt as if Sonya was being too abusive with Yasuna, like she was so kind and genki and Sonya was such a cruel person y8dpfiqn7w

If you want to watch this anime waiting for a splendid story, with many fights or unusual adventures, sorry, but you will not like this series. Before starting to see this anime, it is necessary not to take it seriously. Contrary to the opening, each episode is a set of fun sketchs played in a school about two girls, one being very optimistic and other a professional killer. Even appearing, the anime has no story and all episodes have no connection. There are mostly just four characters presented throughout the plot, the people around are just "sketches", but the ones that are presented are very entertaining and captivating. The soundtrack is also good, the opening and ending of the series as well. I usually say that this anime has accomplished the only goal it offered viewers: a good, light and fun comedy to follow.

Is Kill me Baby a great comedy anime or will you be saying Baby please kill me by the end? For starters I'll just say that this is an episodic anime with no overarching plot and no storyline. So now that that is out of way Kill Me Baby is about two 'friends' in a high-school setting so nothing new there, however the characters are a bit odd as one is typical high-school girl while the other is also in the same role but is a assassin as well which leads to funny interactions between the two characters but gets a bit same like if you binge watch this with it normally starting with first character Yasuna is a normal girl who comes up with a stupid idea and then baits Sonya the assassin into it, and then by the end Sonya has reacted violently beating up Yasuna. Though aside from this I found the jokes to be well though out and played well into each episodes overall 'story' as they made me laugh at least once an episode, which makes whole anime as a whole fun to watch up until the end as there is no real ending or cliffhanger it just stops which I found to not be, all bad but felt unsatisfying by the end. As mentioned before the characters can get a bit boring, due to repetitive humour and boring character designs that even with an additional to characters that are unoriginal though with that in mind, I found characters to be highly likeable as there personalities on one hand were fun to watch, even though they are a typical stereotypes and fairy uninteresting they grow on you as time passes; this is also due to the art direction even though the designs are average; the style is cute and helps mixing in well with the tone of the show, even if the animation is okay at best but similarly the soundtrack used helps immerse you into the shows and has a similar sounding tone. Also relating to cute style there is the Opening and Ending of the show which are really cute and fun to watch though the songs used get annoying as the show progresses. Overall I believe you should watch this if you want a breather from heavy story anime as this is a relaxing show funny jokes, likeable characters and a cute art style that makes you feel released from high energy shows even though the show runs out of ideas after about 4 episodes and reuses the same ideas over and over again unless you take it slow, in which recommend you watch this every now and then instead of binge watching to get the better experience.

Kill me baby left me with… well very mixed feelings, more on the negative side. The story is about two girls, Sonya, who is an assasin that hides as a high school student and her classmate. She’s very serious and rather violent person, always hitting or torturing her classmate, Oribe Yasuna. Yasuna is stupidly optimistic and always get on Sonya’s nerves because of that. She’s very kind and good hearted tho. There’s also a third girl, Goshiki Agiri, who is a ninja and just show up sometimes. Episodes are cut in three, not related to each other segments. They are mostly based on random and gag humor. And here is my problem- the comedy. The show is so absolutely unfunny that it’s so boring to watch. I had have to watch it at 1.5 speed because I couldn’t stand this anime. The characters have just one off personalities. They didn't learn anything through the show and stayed the same till the end. Sonya is bluntly violent toward her friend and I can’t sympathize or like her. She struggles her, keep hitting her for anything or even throw knives on her. Yasuna is just too stupid for my likeness. It’s tiring seeing her causing another problems. It’s also seems like they would do better if they wouldn’t be friends. The only character that carries this show is Agiri. She sounds so done with everything the other girl does. The art style is chibi inspired. I think that is rather alright. The backgrounds are simple, but nicely done. However the animation can be really lazy sometimes. Opening and ending are the best part of this series. It’s literally made to stay in your head for the whole day. If you looking for very funny, investing comedy, better skip this anime.

Ok, I think there are some people who really need to learn the definition of the word "context". Kill Me Baby is a pure comedy series. It never wanted to be something else and it never claimed anything else. It was advertised as such. Just like any other comedy show gets advertised as such and not as a deep Psycological-Horror-Thriller with a Sci-Fi-Twist. There is no continious story going on, cause why the hell should it be. You don't criticize shows like the Simpsons for that neither do you? Every episode is seperated in 2-3 different adventures that the main characters have. The humour is a mix of crazy dialouges and situations combined with a lot of slap stick. Basically the interaction between the characters is the engine of each adventure. But what really puts this COMEDY anime over the top are the three main characters or better yet the three voice actors. The voice actors are doing an amazing job to make these characters sound as whacky as possible and going the extra retarded mile and I mean that in the most positive way. No "kawai desu", these characters are flat out savage in their manners, even tho those manners differ from character to character. Also some of the background sounds and noises are made by the three voice actors themselves which adds perfectly to the whackyness of the overall premise of the show. All in all this series is the perfect anime if you just want to relax and forget about your everyday life. Or just if you want to have some fun and laugh in general.
