My overall impression of the series was one of "meh." Don't get me wrong, It's not a bad series. It has one great character in Ohana, and a relatively simple overall story. Where the story suffers mainly stems from the lackluster supporting cast, who are often forgettable, and sometimes annoying (looking at your sorry ass Jinomaru).
However, one or two bad examples aside (*cough Yuina *cough), most characters display some level of development, and even display some memorable moments. HSI just had the rotten luck of airing in the wrong year. Had this been 2010 or 2009, we might be here arguing its the best anime of the year. Given how strong 2011 was, it makes HSI somewhat forgettable outside Ohana.
I'd say its worth a look, but don't expect to be blown away. It's good for a few luls, but not for too much more. And remember, if things aren't going your way or the way you planned, maybe you just need to fest it up more!
6/10
