Plot
Akikan (”Empty Can”) is the unlikely story of high school boy Kakeru Daichi, whose can of melon juice soda magically transforms into a human girl. More “akikan” girls begin appearing, each of them needing to be infused with carbon dioxide from their respective drink types to survive. The akikans were created as part of the ‘Akikan Elect’ to determine whether steel cans or aluminium cans are superior. The akikans must battle each other until only the strongest can type is left standing.
Opinion
This was an odd anime at first to watch. I mean how many anime have a can of juice turn into a person? That being said I do like those Sudden Girlfriend themed anime because of the funny wierd antics that happen. This was a lot of fun for the first few episodes. Around the middle it slows down a bit, but does pick up by the last couple episodes, and especially the last two episodes. This is yet another generic typical anime theme, but we tend to like those here because it is interesting to find those little twists that makes them different. I recommend this one only if you have a free afternoon and/or something to do while you watch it. If you do watch it let me know of what you think about the ammunition the girls use.
