she has a long long long way to go if she wants to reach the goal of 100
anyways i was surprised by the inappropriate contents(i wasn't expecting that... seriously ), but it was hilarious though. i hope this show will actually have them kiss for good instead of leaving the love hanging forever.

H Kei: H = Sex. Kei generally means mathematical theories or codified ways of doing things. B Cup Sex Theorist would be a close literal translation at the cost of sounding sensical. |

love the main 'heroine' voice cast.
Nanoha...I confess I'm imagining Nanoha from season1 whenever she(Yamada) goes on about wanting to have sex with 100 guys... Watching it right now. I don't know if I should laugh, or shake my head at how lunatic she is. Also lol @ how she thinks her private areas are weird looking... Maybe I'm getting old, but I think she's thinking too much about sex..she's only in high school :3 Spoiler for most amusing parts:

B型 = Blood Type B This is a reference to the Japanese blood type horoscopes. Type B Best traits Wild, active, doer Worst traits Selfish, irresponsible H系 This is the same -kei as used in "Akiba-kei". The implied meaning is more "someone with a strong interest in 'H' things". |

It's right in the opening. Accidentially, she might just as well have blood type B but that's clearly not what the title references. Or then again, it might reference both. Her school class letter is also B. |

For the latter, that's saying the same thing with just a little more sensical localization. To wit, a codified set of knowledge. |

Personally, I think the stuff in the intro is a bit of a red herring towards the meaning of the name. This series was a manga long before it became an anime. A joke in the anime opening does not the meaning of the name make, particularly since B型 is not used in anything I've ever come across or seen to refer to cup size. Blood type, yes. Influenza and Hepatitis, yes. But not bust or cup sizes. It's simply not read that way in Japanese.
Personally, I'd see the meaning as being the blood type, with an implied pun on her being "B-type", in reference to her being a B in various other things (including amongst other things, as already noted, class and cup size). |

The really funny part about what you said here? One way you could describe Yamada, is "a straight Kuroko Shirai." I'm in love.
My highlight character and series of the season so far. EDIT: Small tidbit; when Yamada (tries to) show off her "stats" to Kosuda, note how the writing on the paper is floating above her fingles. Ahhhh, animation errors, how you amuse me so......

Finished the first episode, and it's refreshing to see such a nice new premise (a girl collecting guys, lolwut) along with its comedy. Looking forward to meeting more characters and thus more 'rivals' for Yamada
And I don't know whether to be proud of Kosuda for proving not all men are opportunistic horny asses, or to think that he's dumb. Oh, the moral conflict... |
