REVIEW: Queen's Blade: Exiled Virgin

“Holy Cheesecake Batman!”

[Note: This review was done off the Netflix streaming release of the series, so there were no extras to evaluate]
There are guilty pleasures of all types, for some its a fattening meal, others a special book, for me and my wife, it was a bit of silly cheesecake, read on for our review of Queen's Blade: Exiled Virgin

Story 2/10

Ok so basically the story can be summed up simply, it’s the story of an all female fighting tournament where the best fighter AND most beautiful woman will become Queen, and it happens once every four years. Into this tournament comes our reluctant heroine Leina, who is trying to escape her destiny in nobility, and

That is really all the story there is to this show, there are some light subplots dealing with issues of family and loss, but for the most part the series is an excuse for a lot of fanservice and cheesecake.

My biggest complaint with the story is that there is no real growth with most of the characters, leading to a plodding pace for the story

Art 9/10

Unlike the story which is stuck in mediocrity the art is anything but, fast flowing combat, beautifully drawn, its a shame that the story cannot match the same quality. Special note has to be given to a series that spent apparently a great deal of time dealing with the bounce physics of the girls "Assets" its that kind of show, like it or hate it.

Voice Acting 6/10

Mixed bag when it comes to the voice actors, some like our hereo Leina are actually pretty well done, but by the time you have listed to the Bunny Demon [no I am not kidding] and the annoying Angel, you just might want to poke out your ears, it serviceable stuff, but not too much more.

Parental Advisory: MATURE

This show is definitely not for kids, there are constant sexual overtones, and naked breasts abound in every episode, while the violence is surprisingly non graphic, and the language is certainly nothing above PG the constant sexual overtones will be too much even for some adults, let alone kids.

Overall [Not an average] 7/10

Ok so that rating might not make a lot of sense to people, but hear me out, despite all its shorcomings storywise, and somewhat questionable material, at the end of the day it was a simply fun show to watch, kinda like a train wreck, its not going to be for everyone, but its a bit of silly fun, and if you can think of it in that capacity, you are going to love it.
