Minato and his sexy army of Sekirei are back for more nosebleed–inducing action in this full-figured follow up to the breast action harem anime of all time!
A clandestine organization known as the MBI has issued an edict that threatens to end the lives of Minato and his luscious companions once and for all! The cutthroat organization’s Sekirei Plan will force all busty brawlers and their masters to engage in a flesh-baring fight to the finish. Only one amazing pair will be left standing when this curvaceous cavalcade of carnage has come to a conclusion. Does Minato have what it takes to survive the bombastic barrage of breast-jiggling blows coming his way in this titillating sequel? Only one thing is certain: the booby traps abound and the measurements are mesmerizing in Sekirei Pure Engagement!

The second season of Sekirei (2008), Pure Engagement (2010) combines two popular anime genres, the harem comedy and the jiggle adventure. Mild-mannered, goodhearted Minato is a ronin: despite his intelligence, he's failed the exam to get into the university of his choice--twice. He's also an "Ashikabi," a human who shares supernatural bonds with the Sekirei, extraterrestrial beings who take the form of human females with phenomenal powers (not the least of which is keeping their pneumatic figures inside their scanty costumes). All the Sekirei are pitted against each other in a deadly game orchestrated by the evil president of the all-powerful MBI Corporation, but the six who live with Minato in Maison Izumo spend the first several episodes squabbling over who's his favorite. Episode seven presents a lot of background information from season one, but by that time, viewers will have given up on the tangled but fragmentary plot. The filmmakers try to raise the stakes in the later episodes, but the characters are so shallow and silly that the attempts to convey serious emotions come across as bathos. Sekirei: Pure Engagement plays like Love, Hina restaged by Victoria's Secret. It's an inane succession of jiggle shots and fights designed to excite hormonal adolescent boys. The OVA "Two Gossip Topics" acts as a sort of bridge between the seasons, and features even more nudity and boob jokes. (Rated TV MA: risqué humor, extensive nudity, violence, violence against women, suggested lesbianism, alcohol and tobacco use) --Charles Solomon

There is the over-arching story of a city being ruthlessly controlled by a corporate Police State; not a government, but a megacorporation that soared to power after its founder discovered a hidden technology on a remote island. But there is another part to the story: that of the BONDS of LOVE that can cause people to reach so deeply, and call so urgently upon their strength in order to protect those bonds, that something BRAND NEW can emerge -- something wonderful! Even the WINGED (emerged) Sekireis are subject to all the usual frailties ... jealosy, selfishness, wickedness. But the BIRDS of LOVE, as they are called, will teach and learn about love ... as ordained by the Sekirei of Fate. As usual, the question looms: "What will prevail...

It shocked me a little at first with how much fan service was in it but it was more surprising to see an anime that came with fan service and actually still had an enjoyable story to it. I can not wait to have this added to my collection of anime that I already got 13 of 16 people found the following review helpful:  It keeps getting better, By This review is from: Sekirei 2: Pure Engagement Complete Season (Limited Edition Blu-ray/DVD Combo) (Blu-ray) Let me start by saying as expected if you have not watched the first season of this series don't even try to watch this season. That said if you did watch the first season you are most definately going to want to watch this one.Sekirei was a bit of a surprise for me. Despie how it is advertised as yet another fan fair, panty on the brain and not much else series there is a great deal more to the show then that. Yes the curse has been broken we finally have a fan service anime with a BRAIN! Underneath all of the nudity, panties and bouncing there are likable characters with real personalities not to mention a fair story line. Yes that's right this series actually has a purpose beyond fan service! But if you watched the first season you already know this, The second season here picks up a little while after the first and tasks off with a vengeance. A lot of the questions posed in the previous season are answered but enough is left out that they could make a third... Read more |
