Mai Tokiha and her brother Takumi believe that their new school, Fuka Academy, is a normal facility. It's actually the center of the battle against the Orphans: malevolent, alien monsters who can only be defeated by girls with HiME powers. Each HiME has a "guardian angel," a sort of half- mecha being that fights with her against the metamorphic Orphans. Naturally, Mai is a powerful HiME, although she's unaware of it. The filmmakers can't seem to decide if they're making a magical girl vs. monster adventure series or a fan-service farce. Violent battles against grotesque Orphans are juxtaposed with cleavage shots and nosebleed jokes: viewers can't tell if they're supposed to cheer or snicker. (Rated 13 and older: violence, brief nudity, risqué humor) --Charles Solomon Before coming to the Fuka Academy, all Mai Tokiha wanted was to live an ordinary high school life, but that's the last thing she's going to get. It turns out that Mai is a HiME, one of twelve girls with super-natural powers that are gathered at this school to fight the Orphans, demons that dwell around the school. A secret organization has other plans for the HiME than just demon-busting and Mai and the other HiME will have to risk something precious to protect the ones they love. Genre: Action/Sci-Fi. Review: Extremely disappointed by this - Received the case but there was no dvd. Extremely disappointed by this. Review: My-Hime is not Sailor Moon, but it's still good fun - I watched My-Hime for the first time as a Netflix rental and after finishing the entire series (all 7 discs), I decided to buy the set. If you're looking for a classic anime that will stand the test of time and challenge you (like Grave of the Fireflies, Nausicaa, etc.), My-Hime isn't it - it's not even ground-breaking in the way Sailor Moon was. But if you're in the mood for cute girls in short skirts battling evil while dealing with schoolgirl crushes (on boys and girls) with plenty of fanservice, then this is for you. Each "Hime" is different in one way or the other, but the focus remains with the central characters of Mai, Mikoto, and Natsuki. For me, I love the pairing of Shizuru and Natsuki - or ShizNat, for short and it's these two that bring me back to watching the series over and over again. The series is a fun romp and it wasn't made to be taken seriously. But on a technical note - depending on the kind of DVD player you have, some or all of the discs may not display the Japanese subtitles properly. I checked with Bandai Entertainment (when I first thought I had defective discs) and they said that in the way the discs were authored, subtitling may not work on all players and to try another player.
