Synopsis
All Mai Tokiha wants is to get her sick younger brother settled into a new school, but then a girl washes up alongside their ferry, and a mechanical monster attacks. That's the first ten minutes of Mai-HiME, and it doesn't really slow down from there. Once Mai arrives at Fuuka Academy, she finds out she's one of a select group of female students called HiMEs, each capable of summoning massive, powerful creatures to fight monstrous entities lurking around campus. The show starts youthful and action-forward: new friendships, school life, girls discovering they have extraordinary abilities, but there's an undercurrent of something heavier building beneath it all. Don't get too comfortable with how breezy the early episodes feel. The action sequences are genuinely well-animated for a 2004 TV series, and the soundtrack does a lot of work carrying the emotional weight between fights. Sunrise clearly put care into both the choreography and the character dynamics, which makes the bonding moments feel earned rather than filler. If you came up on Puella Magi Madoka Magica and want something with a similar magical-girl-meets-dark-undertones energy but set in a more grounded school environment, this hits that space. Fans of Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha will also find the action-focused HiME system familiar. At 26 episodes, it has room to breathe and build, which it uses well.

After everything, it was so good it got me overwhelmed with tears especially what happened in the final battle i did not expect that but the feels was too good.
In my opinion they did dirty on the last 2 HiME aside from Mai and mikoto. They could have been a powerhouse against the obsidian prince. Well we know that their sacrifice was needed but still i would have good if not.
well basically this a psychiatric ward fight, The crazies are fighting one another while our heroine is getting crazier too.
My favorite Child Just got whack, i really hate this episode the amount of anger i have with mikoto to be honest.
well things are really getting weird on the HiMe Team, While Reito and Nagi are taking advantage of the situation. How will mai play this after agreeing with Nagi.
Well after all that, I'm really surprised on the manipulation and tactics they played this whole battle.
This Episode really packs a punch, The thing we don't want to happened, happened. Anger and pain really blinds people of rational thinking.
Well that was interesting, One more got revealed and there's a lot of twist happening on this episode.
The HiMe Battle finally started and we can see that there are already factions that going against each other. One wants the truth and the other one wants to protect there love ones.
this episode really did a big impact on everyone especially when a lot of things and secrets where reveled on how a HiMe can defeated.
A classic calm before the storm. I really thought this was meant to be a relaxing episode, but they just had to reveal in the last minute that they might face even more dangerous opponents. Why couldn't they have saved that for the next episode, It really keeps me curious.
This is the kind of fight scene I enjoy so much, a long one that really shows the characters' combat abilities. I do feel sorry for Alyssa because of how they treat her and use her.
This episode shows that the story is really starting to escalate. It makes me wonder what their next move will be to stop everything that's happening.
Whenever you're really enjoying something, it's usually followed by trouble or a sad moment. I already expected that. Still, I'm even more curious about what will happen next, and I'm excited to see more action.
I knew it she wasn't the enemy. The way that scene was presented just made her look like the villain. The battle scene was awesome, and the background music made it even more intense.
Is she really the culprit? If she is i didn't expect it to be her of all the characters involved. And it's a good thing Mai and Mikoto had a nice outing before something happens.
Well this episode revealed on what is expected or what i have been expecting all along, though the cool part is Mai is comfortable summoning Kagutsuchi.
I Thought this would be fanservice episode but it turns out to be a vital one. It focuses on the past of Natsuki and why she became a HiMe
this was really an eye opener, i did not expect that the price for their power and about time mai accepted why she became partners with kagutsuchi.
The story focuses more on mikoto about her history and current life, though it made me curious who is Mikoto's brother?
