upon the suggestion of a good friend, I decided this might be a good anime to watch, and he wasn't wrong. The immense creativity in this anime far surpasses what I usually expect from an animated product. its a story about a girl named Ryuko Matoi who is on a journey to find her fathers killer, armed with only half of his scissorblade. unfortunately, at the school she decides t loom in, the entire student body wears immensely powering clothes called goku uniforms. After being defeated easily, she stumbles upon a very reveling but empowering living unifrom named senketsu, and with its help and the support of an odd girl named mako, she must find out the truth about her fathers murder. just the synopsis is so ridiculous that only japan could try their hand on it.
this anime is so over-the-top, quickly paced, and well animated that it owns a place in my heart.

Being a fan of TTGL, this was a must watch for me. While it never quite reached the heights of TTGL, I can't hold it against Kill la Kill. It's a fan, action packed thrill ride that's a must see for any anime fan. It's pure unadulterated fun. The show is about a teenage girl who is looking for the murderer of her father and ends up at an academy run by a fascist student council. Students at the school, depending on their rank and club, have uniforms that grant them superhuman abilities. The the gist of it. The series has very likable characters and solid humor, though Mako can get slightly annoying at times. The animation is solid and the music is memorable. Overall the presentation is good. Some people are put off this series because of the fanservice, but trust me, it's not bad. I mean, it's not in your face, borderline erotica. It feels self aware and in on how skimpy everyone's (guys included) outfits can get. All in all, it's one of the best anime of 2013- 2014.
If you happen to like anime like Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagan or FLCL, this looks like another show for you. Quick pacing, weird(and nice) shonen parody humor and everything seems to be way over the top. Five episodes in, I am already enjoying the story, although you can clearly tell that the focus is not there.
The main selling point of this show is mostly it's animation, which, as usual with TV shows it gets a bit worse after the first episode. But it still very solid. You will find yourself pausing many times just to see clearly a chaotic shot up close. All in all, i recommend Kill La Kill, especially for fans of quick paced, weird anime like the ones i mentioned before.

This is that sort of anime that can be serious at times but shouldn't be taken seriously by the audience. Right from the first episode the show loads you with expedition and gets right into the action.
The animations is somewhat rough but impressive although some 3D models of backgrounds look bland but it shouldn't put off the viewer considering that fact that its not the reason they are watching this. The action sequences are the highlights though, they are super stylized and insane to watch.
Considering I only checked this anime out because its made by the same guys who made gurren lagann, i had really high hopes for it. But the thing is that this is not gurren lagann. its different. It doesn't take itself seriously and its more of a parody of every single anime in existence however it still manages to maintain an original story.
All in all, this type of anime is rare. Its silly and surprisingly good. Not to mention the generous amounts of fan service that the creators crammed into every scene.
Also the main character, Ryuko is totally bad ass although really cliché. But for an anime thats full of (good) clichés, its fun to watch.

I loved it. The first two episodes were quite boring, but with each episode it revealed it's true colours. The humor is great, though it has way too much perverted jokes. The plot is becomes way more complex as it goes on. The characters are memorable. There are a lot of action and overall the whole series were very fast paced. If you want something heartwarming and mindless fun to pass time, this is definitely to watch.

- TriviaHiroyuki Imaishi came up with the concept after observing the similarity between the Japanese terms "fassho" and "fasshon" ("fascism" and "fashion"), and the dual meaning of the terms "seifuku" (it means both "conquest" and "uniform") and "kiru" (it means both "to kill" and "to wear").
