High School Fleet (AKA Haifuri)

@dandan550

It was extremely generic and poorly executed. Characterization was "meh" at best. Girls und Panzer did it so much better.

@firemagnet perhaps because the storyline wasn't deep as I've seen since the 1st episode. I do had nothing to say on the girls but then again this is just the season 1 so it's kinda hard to reveal every girl in the Harukaze aside the main cast for their personality... Maron was lucky to had her own episode...

@firemagnet I remember that I read somewhere that the guys behind the anime tried to make the "second GuP" with Haifuri... yet they failed completely. I mean its not a bad anime but its not that good as well... as you said, GuP did a better job in terms of characters and overall plot. Some parts in Haifuri were really forced, the plot wasn't clear and there are still many holes left in the air, but at least I can say that the battles were at least decent with the "best" episodes comming right at the end of the anime... and that kinda irked me since the vast majority of the GuP episodes were really good.

But oh well, you can't please everyone so if this show gets indeed an S2 then I'll be praying for it to be so much better than the first one, because it can totally happen unless they repeat the same mistakes or they end up making a whole new kind of mess.

I'm also kinda pissed that they didn't give the MILF a chance to shine and make a new lenged... still I love her face right at the end during the sinking scene, she was like crying out: "I AIN'T GONNA PAY FOR THAT!" XDDD

That wouldn't be cool if she take the spotlight when her students do it.

Yeah I just hope if S2 happen they'll improve it

@dandan550 Haifuri really has tons of potential to become something really good and epic, I'm pretty sure S2 will give us improvement in many aspects. Also don't you think that it would have been cooler if MILF tried to save the day, only to be caught in a pinch and then the Harekaze had to come to rescue her? WIN WIN situation for everyone XDDD

No indication of S2. I suspect the series wasn't watched enough.

@firemagnet Huh... didn't someone said in this thread before that the studio hinted something about it?

**firemagnet** · 06-27-2016, 04:07 PM

@Kranesh

Don't know.

**Leyana** · 06-28-2016, 11:34 PM

@firemagnet But they determine if a show gets a continuation based on BD sales though. Though those weren't great either.

I finished it yesterday, and i enjoyed this show, defintely.

The story was bad, the scenario simple, the explanations quite hazardous (what the hell with these "rats" !?). But the ambiance was quietful, the battle scenes were good, the characters simple but still interesting. It was restful to watch the episode each weak, since i had no exceptations about it.

Personnaly, i would definitely need this kind of anime each season.

I will miss you, Harekaze and her crew (especially Mashiro ! <3)
