Queen’s Blade 01
I started to watch the almost hentai yuri, Queen’s Blade, when it was still airing. I decided to go for it because it has like every single top notch seyuu in it, and most of them worked with yuri before, so I was sure it would have some yuri aswell. The thing is, at some point, due to having to watch for the next episode to be released, I kind of lost my interest in the series and dropped it after the fourth episode.
Then I read Yi’s review of Queen’s Blade ~Rurou no Senshi~ and decided to give the first season another try, so that I could get to the second season, too.
It starts with a cute, but evil bunny girl and Reina, fighting. And it’s soon explained what Queen’s Blade is: a tournament which takes place every four years and the winner gets to be the Queen (but who is the currently Queen, btw?). Risty – my favorite character so far – watches while they are fighting and tearing each other’s clothes off. And then, it happens. The first fetish fanservice: Reina pisses herself while being strangulated by the bunny girl! But she is soon saved by Risty – just because she remembered the girl is from a noble family and there is a reward for bringing Reina back home.
When Risty arrives at the castle to deliver Reina – after she went through bondage and stuff – we meet Reina’s two sisters: Elina, who totally has incestuous feelings for Reina, and Claudette, the all powerfull and most overpowered character so far. Claudette pays Risty the reward, but also arrests her for being e thief lol. That doesn’t matter because Risty is the totally cool type, só of course she escaped with ease. Not to mention she escaped and stole alot of things from the castle, including the family’s armour, that she gives as a gift to Reina, so she wouldn’t have her clothes ripped off again (but we know that won’t make a difference)
In the middle of it all, the evil bunny girl shows up again to kill Reina, but she is defeated in a smart way. By smart I mean that Reina blocked her nipples from ejecting pink acid milk and so she… exploded. In the end Reina goes in a journey to become strong, which is so shounen.
In the next episodes I’ll comment just the yuri moments.

The first episode seems really ridiculous but once you get past it, it’s not a bad show. Also, it has a lot of yuri.
Yeah, I’m actually enjoying it, but I think the battle scenes could’ve been better
