Quality education from talented teachers.

 

A guy gets hit by a giant space dong.  Suddenly by the powers of Alien Science! and Magical Girl Change backdrop, he is transformed into a chick.  Lesbian Love Triangle ensues.  Two thumbs up.

Well that was an easy review, I'm taking a nap.

For those who actually want to read(yeah I don't get it either), Kashimashi is a tale of frustration.  Not just for the characters involved, but for the people that watch.  It's by no means boring if you actually pay attention, and the series has three difficultiy modes!

Normal Difficulty:  Turn off brain, laugh at stupid stock genderbender jokes.

Hard Mode:  Turn on brain, scream at every tard moment possible

V-Spec:  Fail at figuring out what's going on, nerd rage, press Z or R twice, defeat series without using Hadouken.

Kashimashi follows the antics of Osaragi Hazumu, a prettyboy manchild who suffers a common disease of anime characters.  His eyes are covered completely by hair.  Hazumu is a member(or should we say the member) of Kashima High School's Garden Club.  The story begins fairly normal. 

A boy's friends encourage him to confess his love to a girl, his childhood friend holds back her feelings, and the series girl-too-intelligent-to-associate-with-her-crappy-friends gives life advice even though she probably has panties twisted for Hazumu as well.

Sadface teims.  Kamiizumi Yasuna, Hazumu's love interest, drops the rejection bomb on him.  Being a twisted love comedy, her rejection isn't without tears that will be used later for shenanigans and drama showers. 

As his friends search for Hazumu after his rejection with girly magazines and childhood friend tears in hand, we come to the moment of truth.  Throughout the first episode, the school love comedy scenes are often interrupted by scenes of space.  Admittedly, when I first watched this years ago, the space parts were why I cared.

Sorry guys, no Gundam.  As Hazumu climbs a hill to confront his emotions for one final battle, the star ocean delivers divine retribution in the shape of a red, veiny spaceship suffering system malfunctions and explosions. 

With NASA and accurate--yet a bit awkward--English watching the space craft's descent to Earth, Hazumu become the victim of the most unlucky crash ever. 

The very front tip of Space Dong flies into his body, smack dab on the forehead no less.  Rather than having some sort of massive impact that sends Japan into a post apocalyptic shoujo CLAMP comic, the ship somehow manages to stop and simultaneously recreate Hazumu.

As a woman.

With like, boobs and stuff. 

DON'T WORRY, THE INTERNET.  If you're not already creeped out, or not already scrambling to get your own copy of Transvestite Dimensional Fortress Kashimashi, there's a page two where I vent my frustrations and whine.  Examiner.com not a blog?  Pfff watch this PAGE TWO GO!
