It's a yuri anime, so it's automatically awesome... Hopefully it'll have a lot of lesbians.

"Based on a manga by Yukimaru Katsura and Satoru Akahori, serialized in Monthly Dengeki Daioh.

Hazumu confessed his love to Yasuna, but she turned down him. To ease his heartbreak, he went to Mt. Kashimayama where hed met her first. He lost his way in the mountain, and it got dark. He saw a big shooting star, and when he began to wish, he found something was wrong. It wasnt a shooting star, but it was a falling space ship. He was involved in the crash. He managed to survive by the help of the alien. However, he became a girl due to the accident during the reconstruction of his body. "

[kooshi]

Haha, this sounds like a bit like Ranma, except that he's actually stuck in a girl's body. Anxiously waiting for a subbed version.

[Kraco]

Hmm... This sounds actually interesting. To balance Kyou Kara Maou, I would actually really need one yuri series. And moreover, I have never watched one before.

Any idea of possible subbers?

[Munsu]

Doremi and Kazenokoe-Fansubs are planning on doing it if not mistaken.

[Ryllharu]

The cast is really awesome. Yui Horie, Kana Ueda, Yukari Tamura, and Masumi Asano are some of my favorites.

Looks good, and the timing isn't that bad. Its off on a fair amount of them. A lot of people probably wouldn't notice most of it. I wouldn't have if Bud hadn't said anything.

If there's anyone bothered by it enough to fix it, you can even do it yourself, the release comes with an srt.

If those other groups pick it up, I'll probably switch to them though.

The NASA part is hilarious. They speak perfectly pronounced english and still manage to make it sound incredibly awkward. Then they start to miss plurals and other various mistakes. That's the funniest engrish I've heard in a long time.

[Darknodin]

did anyone post this already???

anyways... Episode One by some group called Team Tomari (http://raspberryheaven.net/%7Eadtrw/torrents/%5BTEAM_TOMARI%5DKashimashi%201.torrent)

this is more serious than i thought it would be... but this is only the first ep (i'm actually looking for something light hearted)... and next ep seems like it'll be interesting at least...

oh and this release is just a RAW with an .srt file

[Psyke]

I believe the correct spelling should be Kashimashi, meaning noisy or loud. i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif

[Munsu]

Nope, it's Kasimasi...

It's written like that everywhere, including the official website and the episode itself.

[Darknodin]

and in the show
edit: I think

I think it's "Kashimashi" and the rest got it wrong. Although the character http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/8526/shi2yy.jpg can be pronounced as either "Shi" or "Si", it should be "Shi" in this context.

I've checked the links on this page, and apparently only Team Tomari got it right. I'm no expert in Japanese, but I've heard the word before and it was pronounced as Kashimashi. Well, it's not that important, but I'd thought I should attempt to clarify it.

Edit: I see that even the official site states that it's Kasimasi, so I guess we're gonna stick to that. But I went back and checked on my previous source, and it was pronounced as Kashimashi (http://www.projecthello.com/momusu/joshi.html), so I guess both are allowed. i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif

[Munsu]

Yeah, I had believed it was Kashimashi from the start... But, since the official sources say otherwise, I'm just gonna go with the "it has a hidden meaning" theory...

[Munsu]

Just watched the first episode, and I really liked it... A good balance between seriousness and comedy... So far I like all characters... I liked how as soon as the aliens announced the sex change Yasuna got horny... That's good foreshadowing...

[Ryllharu]

Eps 2 (Doremi-KnkF) (http://kazenokoefansubs.fansub-torrents.com/%5BKnKF-Doremi%5DKasimasi%20%7EGirl%20Meets%20Girl%7E%20-%2002%20%5B675497A5%5D.torrent)

I'm glad this series isn't going to get neglected. It's funny and we can all use a good dose of yuri now and then.

[Kraco]

The second episode was great. Pretty much the kind of comedy you could expect, considering the circumstances, but it was very good, nevertheless. So far it looks like the emphasis is on comedy, but that's not a bad thing. To be honest, if the emphasis was on lots of lesbians, this might be a more boring series, because it doesn't contain ecchi (according to Animenfo). At least I think the scenes with Hazumu's old buddy, Asuta, were some of the funniest in this episode.

[Darknodin]

YEA! This and the Measuring part! Also, I hadn't thought that the aliens would be brought back. well not this early anyways. also means that Hazumu might become a guy again. Oh and little Tomari had a STICK!!!

http://www.jennchantal.com/photos/december_25_2004/kauai0004.JPG

[Ryllharu]

I believe in the first eps the aliens said he was brought back as a girl and they couldn't reverse it. (Or probably more accurate don't want to)

[kooshi]

Haha, Asuta's reactions from Hazumu's changes were freaking hilarious. Poor guy is eventually gonna fall dead.
VERY interesting to see the aliens at the end of the episode. I was not expecting that at all..... well, I expected them to return, but not this early.

[sheva]

another sub group called GNU has pick this up as well...somebody pls let us know is there's any good...
ep1 by GNU (http://www.shockerz.net/anime/tracker/download.php/7/%5Bgnuffiehot%5DKashimashi_-_Girl_Meets_Girl_-_01%5BC7DAB63C%5D%28X264%29.avi.torrent)

[Kyuuzou]

I wonder about this show.. I haven't seen any episdoes yet, but from what I hear it's an all right show..true??? Could some1 maybe tell me a bit more about it ? O.O

[Darknodin]

guy becomes a girl. Its a comedy show, but there seems to be some deeper stuff going on. I say, its not that mature style of comedy (more like teen stuff) but with intelligence. its entertaining.

[Munsu]

Episode 3

http://kazenokoefansubs.fansub...%5B8250FD10%5D.torrent (http://kazenokoefansubs.fansub-torrents.com/%5BKnKF-Doremi%5DKasimasi%20%7EGirl%20Meets%20Girl%7E%20-%2003%20%5B8250FD10%5D.torrent)

[Kraco]

I wonder why those aliens were brought into the regular show. They don't seem to play any role at all. Well, perhaps they will at some point, but I find it hard to see how they fit in at all.

Far less comedy in this episode. According to the preview the next one will start to justify the yuri classification.

[Munsu]

Episode 4

http://kazenokoefansubs.fansub...%5B72ACE1E2%5D.torrent (http://kazenokoefansubs.fansub-torrents.com/%5BKnKF-Doremi%5DKasimasi%20%7EGirl%20Meets%20Girl%7E%20-%2004%20%5B72ACE1E2%5D.torrent)

[Kraco]

Things are certainly proceeding... A decent episode. Hazumu's ever pervert dad is responsible for much of the little comedy in this episode.

[Munsu]

I recently caught up... I'm really liking this series, better than I expected. The drama is being handled nicely.

Anyways, episodes 5 and 6 are out

http://kazenokoefansubs.fansub...%5B237FFE5B%5D.torrent (http://kazenokoefansubs.fansub-torrents.com/%5BKnKF-Doremi%5DKasimasi%20%7EGirl%20Meets%20Girl%7E%20-%2005%20%5B237FFE5B%5D.torrent)

[Kraco]

For some reason I don't much enjoy the mushy parts of this show. I do like romantic stories in general, but perhaps the slightly awkward yuri isn't quite what I'm accustomed to. However, the comedy is good. And according to the preview it looks like we might be heading again more for the field of comedy than drama. And hopefully some other comedy than just sheer slapstick.

[Munsu]

Yeah, I'm not diggin' the mushy parts either. But I blame it not on the yuri, but because we have a boy posing as a girl, which takes away the hotness, though the characters are not hot to begin with.

Next episode looks to be more comedy than anything else, a break from all the drama.

thats 7 i watched it there it is ect ect ...

[shinji3379]

does anyone know if any recent epis have come out?
i havnt seen any on the sites i check.. so just wanted to know if anyone else has...

[Kraco]

Has anybody checked out the other subbers than the Kazenokoe-Doremi alliance? Knkf-Doremi did quality work, but it looks like they are busy with other projects right now, and I'm beginning to forget this show. I might check some other subbers eventually...

[Munsu]

I don't know about GNU, but I can tell that the latest release by some random group is gonna be one of the shittiest things you'll ever see without even watching it.

[Kraco]

Heh heh. Yeah, I suppose that must be true. I wasn't thinking going out of my way quite that far, though. Maybe I'll just wait a bit longer. It's not like this series is such a hit and hot topic that I just couldn't wait for quality releases...

[RyougaZell]

I had forgotten of this series already...
After seeing this topic yesterday I browsed through animesuki and yes... no new since ep 6...
another group had upto ep 8, but did not feel like downloading from them unless Doremi drops the series...

[Munsu]

Episode 7 by KnKF-Doremi

http://kazenokoefansubs.fansub-torrents.com/%5BKnKF-Doremi%5DKasimasi%20%7EGirl%20Meets%20Girl%7E%20-%2007%20%5B43649772%5D.torrent

[Kraco]

It was a really good episode. Well, it was the traditional beach setting, but of course with this series it wasn't just swimsuit presentation.

And quite expectedly Asuta got the heartbreaking "best friend" speech...

But we certainly got back to the good old innocent Hazumu - crazed Asuta comedy.

http://img476.imageshack.us/img476/4441/hazumuasuta7qf.jpg

[Kraco]

An episode in a month is a bit on the slow side, but here's episode 8, nonetheless:

Episode 8 - KnKF-Doremi (http://kazenokoefansubs.fansub-torrents.com/%5BKnKF-Doremi%5DKasimasi%20%7EGirl%20Meets%20Girl%7E%20-%2008%20%5BD31FC584%5D.torrent)

It was a decent episode, this time with the courage test theme. It bothers me slightly that they don't undertake the extra effort of trying to come up with anything original most of the time. It's as if they are just counting on the boy-turned-into-girl main idea to carry the thing through no matter what else is happening (or not happening).

Well, fortunately Asuta and the ever pervert dad saved a few scenes. The rest were quite boring and didn't even advance the plot that much, to be honest.

[Kraco]

KazeNoKoe and Doremi made a come-back, and released two episode in two days (if somebody still remembers this series. I for sure didn't remember what had happened in the previous episodes, but it hardly mattered):

Episode 9 - KnKF - Doremi (http://kazenokoefansubs.fansub-torrents.com/%5BKnKF-Doremi%5DKasimasi%20%7EGirl%20Meets%20Girl%7E%20-%2009%20%5BC3FB815A%5D.torrent)

Episode 10 - KnKF - Doremi (http://kazenokoefansubs.fansub-torrents.com/%5BKnKF-Doremi%5DKasimasi%20%7EGirl%20Meets%20Girl%7E%20-%2010%20%5BBD937B5E%5D.torrent)

Episode 9 wasn't certainly very funny. It just had some flashbacks and tried to force Hazumu make some decisions (which didn't happen of course). Asuta was marginalized, which is kind of pity since he's the main source of humour, even if that humour starts to get old little by little. I hope they take him back or kick him out completely. Just placing him there in the background doing things that yield nothing is neither productive nor funny.

Episode 10... Ugh. All the comedy removed until only the mushy parts remained. And like I said earlier, the mushy parts in this series are hard to like unless you belong to the specific and narrow target audience (whatever that happens to be). I seriously hope it won't continue this way (although I'm afraid it will). If it does, I'm going to drop this series.

[Kraco]

I didn't mean to drop this series consciously, but somehow it seems to have happened anyway, and I never realised I had missed the last two eps, released already back in July. I only now noticed it as I was browsing through my HD thinking what I could burn away to save HD space (for whatever reason since I have plenty of empty space after buying an external one...). Anyway, I'm posting here in case somebody else here shared my fate and had already forgotten this little awkward series ever existed.

It's probably better to use the batch torrent, and just pick the episodes you are missing from inside it instead of the old individual ones:

Kasimasi 1-12 Batch - KnKF-Doremi (http://kazenokoefansubs.fansub-torrents.com/Kasimasi%20%7EGirl%20Meets%20Girl%7E%201-12%20%5BKnKF-Doremi%5D.torrent)

Edit: Gods, I had to force myself to watch these two episodes, and I could do it only with a little skipping here and there. It was zero comedy and full awkward mushy drama till the end. I guess I fell out of the target audience at some point, because I think this series would have been thirty times better if they had continued with the comedy instead of the triangle drama.

[Bucket]

I actually enjoyed the drama more than the comedy, since things were moving toward a resolution (as opposed to the wild-take "omg boobies" slapstick we've seen a million times before, although the alien guy was great). The only things that bothered me were those last two lines of dialogue. I have no idea what they're supposed to mean.

Not legendary, but a good story.

[RyougaZell]

Im waiting for the final episode (13 to be released on DVD) to burn this anime.

I can't give an opinion about the ending since... I kinda forgot about it already... LOL...
