Once again, I am too lazy to review my next game (which is crysis 2), so heres another anime review. I'll try to do crysis 2 by tuesday. This time we add another anime to the review archives under the all so common romance/comedy genre. Romance/comedy animes are common, and probably 5 out of 10 animes in any freaking site or list out there are romance/comedy, no joke. However, MM! is definetely one of the best there is, and is something you shouldnt miss. Seeing as this is a romance/comedy anime, many will just dismiss and move on to something else...in this case, don't. MM! is superb and I would recommend this to almost any sane anime watcher, because its just that great.
There arent much songs used in MM!, but believe me they are pretty good. There is literally only one opening, and its "Help!~Hell side~". Its godamn addictive, and they use it throughout the whole show, which is awesome. I'm usually not up for this kind of music, but "Help!~Hell side~" is simply one of the most addictive songs I have ever heard! Halfway through it changes to "Help!~Heaven side~", but I don't see the difference other than the changes in the opening animations. Either way, I think they are both have no difference and are awesome all the same. The ending is "More-more lovers!" by natusko aso, and its pretty good though. I prefer her other works like "movement of magic"," programming for non-fiction", and her famous "perfect area complete", this one isnt bad at all. Worth a listen. The final episode's ending is just a sweeter version of happy birthday...... not really exciting to listen to XD.
Rating:8.5/10
MM! receives a solid 8.5 out of 10 in my opinion. For something of this genre, it is genuinely funny and has a pretty comedic concept. Like most romance/comedy animes, it is more comedy than romance, and fear not, this show is actually really funny. There are PLENTY of laugh out loud moments and to be honest, some tense and emotional moments as well. MM! does well for something its genre, and though we have yet to see any real romance (I'm talking stuff like hatsukoi limited), the serious moments make up for it. That should be enough of a reason to watch this comedic masterpiece, because as of now, this is one of the few animes on the very top of the food chain.

| This is the gist of MM! The life of a high school boy who enjoys torture by good looking girls. |
MM! features sado tarou as the leading man, and he is one hell of a troubled young man. He may not be the dumbest guy around, but when it comes of girls, he starts to freak out big time. Tarou is a mashocist, a person who obtains pleasure through torture and physical pain. But tarou is a special mashocist...he only recieves pleasure through pain when they are inflicted by good looking girls. He can get stabbed in the stomach 50 times and still enjoy it as long as the one doing it is a sexy lady. Tarou wants to rid of his problem, since he doesnt want his first love finding out, so he joins the "2nd volunteer club". Here he meets class president Mio, who is hell bent on helping students who come to the club for help. Seeing as tarou has such a serious case of his "female mashocist" problem, mio starts to try curing him through some ridiculous methods. Mio herself is quite the beauty, so thus begins tarou's pleasure as he goes through mio's process of "curing" his problem....
MM! is a great example of a comedy show. I still don't think it fits the "romance" part pretty well, like most romance/comedy animes (there is no confession or true love being shown unlike clannad, angel beats or hatsukoi limited). However, that doesnt mean you should overlook this. With comedy levels near the standards of baka test, you will laugh your guts out when watching MM!, and its definetely one of the funniest animes up to date.
P.e.a.c.e.
