Kill Me Baby

Kill Me Baby:  C



"Baby, please kill me."

Oribe Yasuna is a regular, spazzy, slightly stupid  high school girl.  Her best friend is Sonya, a professional killer, who is also a high school girl.  They form a fairly standard manzai (idiot/straight man) pair and do the normal stuff you would expect of such a pair.  There is also their friend Agiri, who is probably a ninja.  She says she's a ninja, and has lots of ninja-type things and occasionally does things which look like ninjutsu... but mostly she just sells things.  There's also an unused character who keeps trying to get into the series itself, but it never works.

And that's really all there is to this show.  Most of the jokes end in violence toward Yasuna due to her idiocy, though occasionally Sonya gets comeuppance for her violence.  It doesn't have any story or character development to speak of, and is fairly insubstantial.

I personally didn't find it riotously funny, but I giggled a couple times, so I guess it's not that bad a series to have on in the background while you're doing something else.  I wouldn't really 'recommend' it to anyone, though.
