Kill La Kill

Kill La Kill, by Trigger, is a balls-to-the-wall anime bursting at the seams with all the style and high-octane action the powerhouse studio behind Gurren Lagann is known for. However, unlike Gurren Lagann serving as a celebration of mecha anime, Kill La Kill is a tongue-in-cheek deconstruction of the magical girl transformation genre of anime like Sailor Moon. Allow me to set the scene.

A high school girl named Ryuko Matoi enrolls into the prestigious authoritarian high school of Honnouji Academy. In order to unearth the identity of her father’s killer, Ryuko must battle the waves of the academy’s students powered by their experimental uniforms. Luckily Ryuko has a powerful uniform of her own. With the help of her sentient scantily-clad blood-sucking sailor uniform, Senketsu.

Kill La Kill is streaming on Huluand Crunchyroll
