Synopsis

Set in the 1920s, Haikara-san ga Tooru is the story of the high-spirited tomboy Benio and her relationship with a handsome half-German soldier named Shinobu. Benio is a very outgoing and athletic girl with firm ideas about being able to live her life as she wants to. When she first meets Shinobu, she dislikes him intensely, even though he manages to help her out of a series of embarrassing mishaps. She is therefore surprised when she finds out that she has been forced into an arranged marriage and that her husband-to-be is none other than Shinobu! The story then has many twists and turns, as Shinobu has to fight in the war, Benio has to wrangle with the idea of getting married, and getting along with her future in-laws and employer. Meanwhile, the great Kanto earthquake looms in the future...

It make me sad that not many people has seen this great anime Gekijouban Haikara San ga Tooru Despite being old /classic anime , It really has that historical ,comedy, drama romance that many would want to see.(okay maybe i exaggerated a little bit but it still kinda sad no one willing to do fansub on it). And fortunately i came across it and watch full episode of it with no subtitles . I'm also had seen the 2 movie that being produced last year.

Story 8/10
it sets the story at 1920 Taisho period where the country of Japan is start to modernized and west culture ...

I like historical settings, and the final phase/aftermath of world war 1 could be interesting I thought.

The opening and ending music was pleasing to the ear I think, from the rest I do not remember much. Must have been OK probably.

Some words about the graphical aspects of this animation title. Backgrounds are pretty basic, ...
