Kampfer



This is Kampfer, a manga based on a light novel. The story is about Seno Natsuru, a boy who is changed into a girl when he is selected as a Kampfer. Since as a rule, all Kampfer are girls, he is unwittingly changed into a girl. Kampfer are fighters who are chosen by Moderators to fight each other, they usually have messengers in the form of deformed stuff animals (Natsuru's a disembowled tiger), which are all given to the respective Kampfer's by Sakura Kaeda, whether on purpose or not it is not known.

Natsuru is a Blue Kampfer (the thing on his wrist that marks him as a Kampfer is blue) and he is to fight a Red Kampfer. What makes it more difficult is that the Student Council Chairperson of his school, Sanguo Shizuku, is a Red Kampfer. Natsuru finds his ally in the form of Mishima Akane, a quiet librarian who becomes a loud mouth, obnoxious, violent girl when in her Kampfer form.

Kampfer are divided into three types, a Zauber(magician), a Gewehr(guns) and a Schwert (melee weapons). Kampfer who are divided are erased from existance...Shizuku is plotting a sort of rebellion against the Moderators, since she finds it meaningless to fight without proper reason. But until then, she intends to fight and defeat all Blues she sees....

Overall, Kampfer is really funny, and unlike other "girl fights" manga, it does not have too much fanservice, or at all, really... Natsuru is also in love with Sakura, but Sakura somehow falls in love with the female Natsuru (Kampfer form) and thinks the male Natsuru as his love rival... WHY DO ALL MANGA/ANIME have HOMOs OR BIs???

So anyway, here are a few scenes which I find extremely funny...
