[quote name="fabio"]An anime worth watching? I remember like 10 years ago Zseni posted some manga about a tyrannical student body president who ruled high school with an iron fist using super powered club presidents. Tenjou Tenji or something. Kill la Kill is the exact same setup, but asks the question what do we have to do in order to make this ridiculous concept work. The answer is to turn the ridiculousness of everything up to 11 and make the whole thing a parody of anime. So you have clothes giving the villains super powers versus the nudist rebels. Besides making fun of anime, what makes it worth watching is all the small quick visual gags peppered throughout. In that regard it's probably the closest an anime has come to Adventure Time (the 1st season, not later when it became a Tumblr cesspit). It's still only decent instead of great since even if it makes fun of anime, in the end it's still an anime :[/quote]
