If you guys want to watch a cute lil rom-com about a bunch of girls discussing love and other generic rom-com tropes, then strap in because this anime is a fucking roller coaster. You'll be cheering one character on in one episode, and then wishing they were dead in the next.
The first couple of episodes were pretty enjoyable as you'd expect, girl walks in on childhood friend wanking, girl gets a glow-up, girl tries yoinking other girl's man. You know, normal stuff. But then it starts getting weird, in a good way. Love triangles, misunderstanding, botched confession, you name it. All of which wrapped up neatly in this bun of cutesy art styles, excellent voice acting and sexual undertones that hold this whole thing up.
The characters are the main driving factor for this anime. They all have their strengths and flaws and their interactions are very enjoyable to watch. However, out of all the characters presented, I found myself drawn more to the supporting cast rather than the main cast. Yamagishi (the teacher dude) was my favourite character in the entire show and his interactions with Hitoha (short black haired girl) were top notch acting.
Kazusa (general of the helmet hair army) is arguably the main character of the show. Her interaction with Izumi are real wholesome before and after
The whole love triangle aspect between
As for the other main characters I feel that Sonezaki (glasses girl) had the most growth out of the entire cast. Comparing her first appearance to her last really emphasises the amount of character development she experienced over the course of these 12 episodes. I found her as the "older sister" of the group to be very interesting, due to her knowing jack all about sex and trying to convey her botched understanding to her peers. This botched understanding eventually evolves when she gets a boyfriend and begins to learn that guys aren't that terrible.
On the contrary. Momoko (orange hair girl) was one of the most forgettable characters out of the main cast. In fact, after her arc ends I felt she was relegated to a side character at most until her other arc started up (and calling it an arc is generous). By the time she realises her feelings for
Hitoha is great. Her story line of trying to seduce her teacher is an interesting concept, seeing as it
Also Suagawara (white haired girl) is a terrible person and i fucking hate her. Easily my least favourite character in the entire anime.
Overall, O Maidens in Your Savage Season is a fantastic watch. Whether you watch it for the plot (literally) or the characters, its an enjoyable roller coaster the whole way through.
Also one of the guys is a pedophile and it ain't the teacher this time.
