Bakuon!!
ばくおん!!

Bakuon!! is a cute girls show. It has messages about friendship, moe moments, and a bit of fanservice. It is not any sort of game-changer, and doesn't have any sort of deep meaning, but that does not mean that it is not a damn good time. The best thing about this anime is that the girls are absolute bike nerds. They argue about which manufacturer makes the best bikes, and they are loyal to the point of idiocy. They talk about the specs of their bikes and enthuse over bike magazines. It's hilarious. The humor of this series is absolutely on point. Jesus Christ is a character in this anime. He tell the main character that God loves motorcycles and presents her with the holy grail. What more can I say? In short, this anime is a good time if you're looking to blow off steam or need a smile. A solid 8/10

This is entertainment. If you like motorcycles and/or chested high school girls, this is fun, enough to check at least one (1) episode. Even for people with some familiarity with the medium this could be enjoyable. The jokes aren't unfunny, the characters aren't yet that stereotypical or hateable, the animation is fine. It's very proficiently done, and although as a SoL there obviously isn't any grand story, it isn't at all disagreeable to watch start to finish and it has a little progression for the characters. It's inoffensive, but enjoyable. If I'd particulary want to recommend it, it's very good for: Around 100d, middle experience, it's fun, it's not informative, not indicative, but it's good fun entertainment.

As a rider myself, I couldn't help but laugh at every single episode in this anime, it is just hilarious. All motorcyclists out there has got to watch this series for the pure comedy. Overall, the anime was very enjoyable and I would recommend it for anyone looking for a light hearted series to watch, especially for people coming off horrible endings and such 'you know what' lol. The fun factor of this anime is doubled for motorcyclist audiences but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy it if you aren't. That's basically saying if your not a chef, you wouldn't enjoy Shokugeki or if your not a basketball player, you wouldn't enjoy KnB. So this anime is definitely for everyone. Obviously, its a school setting, the usual girls only anime with some fan service, so if your not a fan of these types then its not for you, simple as that.

This anime is highkey a super niche watch ONLY DEDICATED TO RIDERS!!! Quick review, This show is simply about cute girls doing cute things on motorcycles with a lot of jokes and references towards the bikes, so if you don't really know much about motorcycles or are expecting some crazy, in-depth character writing like Bocchi the Rock, this anime won't appeal to you. Compared to other similar shows in its genre such as Bocchi the Rock, K-On, Yuru's Camp, etc, the main selling point in Bakuon is that it focuses a lot more on its theme (the motorcycles duh), rather than character writing (good character depth and development.) There also isn't really a plot in this show, and there is a bunch of random fanservice that you'll either love or hate. That being said, if you're into motorcycles and love watching anime, this is definitely a fun watch that you should give a try. P.S this anime unironically got me into riding and buying a bike lol

Hello brothers of the Church of Bakuon!! Welcome all. On this blessed day of teen biker girl superiority we gather to discuss our best girl, all of them (but mainly frizzy). This show is ultimate anime. Do you want badass girls? Check. Do you want Jesus Christ? Check. Do you want tig ole bitties? Check. Do you want a hot springs episode? Check. Do you need transgendered representation? Check. Do you need a trap? Check. Do you need the Stig? With vagina? Check. Do you need a drunk handsy suicidal teacher? Check. Do you need to be entertained? Check. Look, this is my favorite anime. It is in all honesty at best a 6-7/10 show. But,in my heart I could never rank it this low. Waifus for days. Tomboys. Bikes (which are well rendered). And the love of biking (motor kind, not that spandex sissy kind) makes this the best use of anime ever conceived. When the west falls and we go to war I will have Onsa on the side of my truck as I ride into battle. Yamaha superiority forever.

Yes, I know. Cute girls doing cute things. Boring! I agree, such shows can indeed be tedious, but not this one. This one actually has depth to its humour, which makes the world of difference. Bakuon doesn't just focus on the cute girls, it actually goes into great detail about the ways of motorcycle enthusiasts. It mocks a bikers love of their own bike over that of all others, yet at the same time embraces how wonderful it feels to have that love. It explores both the upside and the downside of motorcycle ownership without prejudice. That honesty makes the whole thing relatable; even to those of us who have no interest in bikes. And that's an essential ingredient for any comedy to work. And what great comedy it was. There are no cheap laughs here. The jokes are extremely well thought out and it had me in stitches at times. The relentless mocking of Ducati for their lack of reliability; the shameless behaviour of dodgy backstreet dealers and garages; the delusions of Suzuki owners; these are all very real things, parodied beautifully. Yes, it has some ecchi moments, but who really cares as long as the comedy element makes you laugh? I certainly don't. I loved every minute of it. The characters worked really together. Their rivalries and friendships were excellently portrayed. All great comedies need a degree of reality and seriousness or the jokes just aren't funny. Not all writers manage to strike that balance, but the creator of this one got it spot on. 10/10 from me. A joy to watch.

I had to put an average note on every part. Because there is a huge difference on the ways I watch this anime. As a motorcycle fan, I love the precission the author drew the bikes and how exactly the love for the bikes the owners have. As a person, I F****NG loathe that underage ladies are pictured as suitable riders, and there is sexual abuse shown in one of the episodes. WTF!?!?!? I mean, if the ladies were 18 years old (or older), apart of picturing women in a way they are not ("but, you know, is just an anime, not real life!") that would be "acceptable", but the way this anime has been made seems totally wrong. The story is nothing special, the characters are average, the music is kinda cool making the anime look like funny, but... I came for the motorcycles, and I had to make an effort to continue, I don't care about the measures of underaged ladies. I guess that the target of this anime is teenage boys who like motorcycles, but there's a lot of better animes out there. If you pass on Bakoun!! you won't really regret it...

10/10 if you're motorcycle nerd, it contains soo many references that make it funny if you're in the know. It has some fun takes on silly rivalship that happens in the hobby and it's history 6/10 otherwise, without that knowledge you'd just be missing a ton of jokes or they won't be as funny without the wider context. Overall it's a slice of life anime centred around motorcycle culture. It also have literal Jesus on Bike. At least one anthropomorphised bike. Some 3D on motorcycles but IMO done pretty well, decent animation, state-required amount of boob bounce, memes for days and cute characters No real story across episodes whatsoever, this is "eat your dinner while watching it" kind of anime.
