I guess I've been on an anime girl kick lately. Here we have Kaname Chidori from an old favorite of mine called Full Metal Panic. She's an archetype any anime fan will be familiar with: bright, cheery, and prone to sudden and vicious physical attacks on any unsuspecting male at the drop of a hat, ignited by any sexual advance no matter how slight or harmless it may be, real or imagined. A paranoid violent lunatic who should be locked in a padded room, not galavanting around having whimsical adventures without ardent police supervision.

Ok I kid, but if you've ever watched an anime you know what I'm talking about. But I think Kaname here did transcend her trope and manage to be likable, despite her penchant for unwarranted savagery towards helpless, cowering men. 

As for the show itself, personally I still love it. But like many of my old favorites it's hard to recommend to everyone. (In fact I think Cowboy Bebop is the only show I've seen that fits that bill.) FMP is more than a little on the cheesy side, even for when it was released. But I honestly think that's what they were going for on some level. The whole show has a very 80's action sort of feel, despite being released decades later. 

Seen the show? If not does this sound like something you've seen? If so let me know in the comments. :)
