you can skip this one to be honest I tried to keep this as spoiler free as possible!

overall score: 4

Story:

Hobbies are often a great way of meeting new people, but how could Kakeru Diachi, who collects rare juice cans, have ever suspected that he'd meet a fascinating new girl when he attempted to DRINK her? Naming her Melon, because she's got great melon... soda, Kakeru quickly learns that she's an Akikan—a beautiful girl who's also a special can created to fight other Akikans in a strange experiment to determine what kind of container is better: steel or aluminum!

Will becoming involved in this ridiculously twisted research project gone amuck complicate Kakeru's life incredibly? Of course, it will, but because Melon's steel body needs carbon dioxide to breathe, he's now stuck with her since she's too CO2 dependent! And when his wealthy, attractive, best childhood friend Najimi gets HER own aluminum Akikan, the trouble really begins! - taken from anilist

Honestly, this anime was such a disappointment for me. The premise seems pretty original, cans turn into girls its definitely something i had not seen before, however, they just turned it into a cliché girl fighting series. It was incredibly badly executed completely ignoring most of its premise.

Art:

The art style is pretty mediocre its not bad but it could be way better. Some of the hairstyles look really unnatural and the designs don’t feel very original. The colors are quite bland and the action scenes don’t have enough motion.

Sound:

The opening of the series Miracle Plan ga Dekichatta! by Charmmy Queenmatches the show well enough but doesn’t particularly stand out, it is however one of the series more redeeming features. Its an upbeat and happy song

I actually didn’t really like the ending song, it felt like it was a bit all over the place, and I personally didn’t really connect to it. It did however match the show well especially with its title Juicy Extacy by Little non

Character:

Honestly the characters to me were very bland , and not very memorable. They didn’t get anywhere enough development and almost all the characters fell into their typical arche types.

Melon the main heroine I actually found to be quite annoying especially in the beginning later on in the show her personality improved somewhat but not to a redeeming degree.

Enjoyment :

I didn’t really enjoy akikan that much, It took me a long time to finish the show and I actually felt relieved when it was finished, i found myself becoming bored so frequently and in my opinion, the only bad show is a boring one. It had a few sweet romance moment but i felt like that was the only thing keeping this entire series afloat

Overall:

Akikan is a bundle of wasted originality and typical personalities. The characters are bland and forgettable and have next to no development. I wouldn’t recommend this show personally but i wish everyone who gives it a chance regardless a better viewing experience than the one that i had.
