Welcome to Is The Anime Finished?#
Everything you need to know before committing to an anime. Today, we are looking at Majikoi - Oh! Samurai Girls (also known as Love Me, Seriously! or Maji de Watashi ni Koi Shinasai!!).
What is Majikoi - Oh! Samurai Girls About?#
Set in Kawakami City—a place renowned for its deep dedication to samurai ancestors—fighting spirit is more than just a hobby; it is a key factor for success in school. The story follows Yamato, a second-year student at Kawakami High school, and his tight-knit group of seven friends (four boys and three girls) who have been inseparable since childhood. They share a secret base and a strong bond, but the dynamic of their close-knit circle begins to shift when two new girls join the group at the start of the new semester.
If you’re looking to dive into this world, you can watch the anime on Prime Video.
Is the Anime Really Finished?#
The anime aired from October 1, 2011, to December 17, 2011. Because this was a relatively short run, viewers who watch only the anime may find themselves wanting more. To get the most complete version of the story and a more satisfying conclusion, we highly recommend continuing with the source material.
You can buy the manga or light novel here to fill in the gaps left by the adaptation.
