Back Street Girls

Basically the story is about 3 mafia men being transformed into Barbie doll idols by their psycho boss and have to live through it. However that didn't help me be interested in watching it further. I like the Gender bending genre but this one unfortunately is part of the bad ones I've watched and it's really struggling to be funny so Imma gonna avoid watching the other 9 episodes for sure...

Biggest problem with this show is the animation. A lot of anime tends to have more stilted animation, but every frame looks really good. This show however seems to take that to a bit of an extreme, where you rarely see any movement in any of the shots other than their mouths or with an effect put on the screen, effectively looking a bit more like a slide show rather than an anime. I think there are at most 5 shots throughout season 1 that didn't do this. However, for how relatively lackluster and uncanny the animation is, they didn't slack off on the writing. The characters all play off eachother really well, leading to some funny and genuine moments between them, and the premise is very interesting. For what it lacks in visual flair, it makes up for in good writing and still manages to be entertaining despite that flaw.

Here you'll find lots of good dank moments and jokes

What a weird show. The premise is so rediculous that it works. The whole shows feels like watching a train wreck but in a good way and I think that's what the show's going for. Only downside is the animation is pretty budgeted but they do a lot with a little. Voice acting is great.

Though masquerading as a crass comedy about Yakuza members turned idols by a sadistic boss, this show offers a remarkably brutal critique of the idol culture it portrays. The literal emasculation of the three Yakuza members reflects the cultural emasculation of Japan following the second world war in an attempt to downplay the war crimes of the nation. I don't think that its an accident that the mastermind if this emasculation is an American, referring likely to the US's efforts to forget Japanese warcrimes to set them up as a viable ally against the Soviets. The show also highlights the truly abhorrent conditions with its own tongue-in-cheek comedy. Such a framing device makes the expose more palpable to both local and western audiences. Acknowledging such mistreatment represents a vital beginning step for the culture of Japan. Furthermore was the representation of the rampant objectification and misogyny in both Japan at large and idol culture comes to light in the characteristic brutal satire of the Gokudolls. A large number of the 'fans' of the Gokudolls are shown to be slobbish and disgusting wastes of men. Their internal ugliness made physical. This show is a sadly overlooked and under appreciated satire, especially by those who refuse to acknowledge the problematic aspects of anime.
