Kill Me Baby is an anime series derived from the manga of the same name. It’s a gag show about a young foreign-trained assassin named Sonya and her daily life with her airhead classmate, Yasuna, and a ninja from the same organization, Agiri-san. How these three interact in doing everyday things is the source of the humor in this series.
Strengths:
I would say that character interaction is the highlight of the series. Yasuna and Sonya are a comedy duo or manzai combi in Japanese. Yasuna acts the part of the fool while Sonya is the straight man, or girl. Nothing would probably happen to the show if Yasuna just kept her insane and inane ideas to himself, or Sonya not reacting, or Agiri not being her mysterious self.
I like Agiri especially. One never really
Weakness:
The gags are hit-or-miss, and if you’ve watched enough gag shows about high school girls, then you might find the jokes trite and repetitive. sometimes though, there will be a gag that will make you laugh out loud in the middle of the night as you watch the show.
Favorite Character:
Agiri-san takes the cake. I would go out on a limb and say that she saved the show for me. Her ninja techniques put Hattori Hanzo’s to shame.
Favorite Line:
Conclusion:
While Kill Me Baby is nice to watch on any given day, it doesn’t have enough to set it apart from all the shows about high school girls since Azumanga Daioh. For that craziness.
