The Series (2/5)

     Battle Girl High School takes place in the near future after an alien invasion by the "Irousu".   The survivors of the invasion have gone into hiding just to survive.  However, there is a training academy for young women known as Shijnugamine Girls Academy, where they learn standard academics alongside skills to battle back the alien invaders. The series follows a number of the students new and continuing as they learn their skills and fight off Irousu.

    Battle Girl High School is a 12 episode anime series with the episodes running 30 minutes in length. The series follows, not so much a single character as a group though it seems early on they try to line Miki up as the main of the show. As such the show doesn't seem to have a character to really grab on to, and the characters all seem fairly generic in the show. Battle Girl High School is an adaptation of a mobile game, and with that in mind you can see how the show could spring forth from that sort of material with the battling and skill based nature of the programming.

   The animation is standard for this sort of show. The score is decent, but largely unremarkable, and honestly, I started to forget about this one soon after I watched it last week. I wish I could recommend it, because with a title like this one, I watched it pretty quickly, but alas it was all flash, and not even much of that.

Audio/Video (4/5)

    Sentai Filmworks presents Battle Girl High School in a solid 1:78:1 1080p AVC encoded transfer. Everything here looks quite solid, colors are nice, detail is decent, and I have no real issues to report.

   Audio is handled by a Japanese DTS-HD MA 2.0 track in English. This sounds quite basic, but again fine.

Extras (1/5)

    A clean opening and closing, plus trailers

Overall

   A fairly unremarkable girls at a battle academy anime is a decent time waster, but not much more. The Blu-ray looks solid, but doesn't have many extras. RENT IT.
