Hantsu x Trash

Finally glad to see water polo get the representation it deserves. This show perfectly encapsulates the essence, the magic, the heart of the sport and I cannot recommend it enough. Everything from the incredible male physic to the main character's experience with the coach to the the way they played and especially had a care not for breasts, but for water polo was so moving. Incredibly relatable and amazing overall. Hands-down a must watch up there with the classics. Thank you so much Hood Stuidos for this incredible, enlightening experience. Any anime fan will watch this and realize how pride they are to be a ... fan of the medium.

Hantsu x Trash isn't trash, the joke is overused, but it is stale.

For an ecchi anime, which it is mostly, it had its moments for it to qualify for good ecchi. However, it was entirely that with a broken narrative. The story side of things didn't really need to exist, but it did anyway with some romance appearing in the last episode and some plot detail to do with character relationships I would imagine one would need the manga to understand, like everyone simps on the main dude for no reason. Either that I just forgot (for good reason).

Production is alright for its time, and ... there is nothing to go on about that, I liked the character design but aside from that, the anime is comparable to everything mediocre you have probably watched before. That too applies for the OST, if there was any... the ED was exotic though.

I wouldn't really recommend this, there are better out there that doesn't care and just exists to satisfy the horny (see Kagaku na Yatsura). But there is nothing really to lose here, it is just some ecchi anime that is a little distorted, but it is short and it is ecchi at the end of the day.

6/10. It will sell but it won't hold.

This 3-episode series was so bad, that not even Itou Shizuka would have saved it. Which was a huge shame, unfortunately.

This adaptation is definitely far less superior than the manga version. I do agree with a reviewer that it would have been better off as a Hentai series. As for the characters, the one I liked the best was the sexy and sultry Miyoshi Manami (voiced by Itou). The worst of the bunch was easily that brutish, sunglasses-wearing guy (I refuse to write down his name) who was a huge pervert along with some of the other creep boys from Episode 2.

Well, at least the ... main male character isn't as bad as those guys. That is the guy that I am rooting for in losing his virginity before the creeps do (unless they already lost it). Also, the other part that I liked about the anime initially was iRis' performance of Hachamecha x Strike during the ED (I don't know how to put the star in the group's name)

If you are still curious about the series, I recommend reading the manga first. That way, you will probably avoid wanting to watch the anime.

That is all.
