Reviews

In the anime universe you can add teenage girls to any subject and make it interesting. Well, almost. Studio Ezo'la’s 2019 show uses short episodes of just twelve minutes each to tell the story of four girls “shipwrecked” onto a desert island.

What is the plot of Sounan Desu Ka?

Sounan Desu ka Plot: Four high school girls named Homare, Asuka, Mutsu, and Shion find themselves stranded on a remote deserted island when their aircraft, taking them on a school trip, crash lands. With no one around them, a sense of panic dusks upon them.

Who is Asuka in Homare?

Voiced by Hiyori Kono, Asuka is another main character of the anime who gets trapped on the island after the plane crash. Unlike Homare, she does not know much about survival but her athletic skills allow her to do several things that the other girls cannot do. Back in school, she used to be a prominent member of the basketball team and though she wishes to be the leader of the group on the island, she does not interfere when Homare tries to help others. In appearance, she has an athletic body and is usually seen with a smile on her face. She has short brown hair and deep big brown eyes.

Does Homare have survival skills?

But luckily, Homare seems to have some survival skills because of her upbringing. Being the only one who has a fair idea of what needs to be done in the situation, Homare leads the group and together, in order to survive, the girls try to do everything from setting traps to eating cicadas.

Who is Shion Kujo?

Shion Kujo. Out of all the other girls in the group, Shion Kujo is the one who struggles the most when it comes to adapting to their new life on the island. Coming from a rich family background, she is a spoilt young girl who finds it really hard to sustain herself on the limited resources available on the island.

Who is the smartest girl in Yaoi?

Mutsu Amatani. Mutsu Amatani is the smartest girl in the group who always finds a new creative way to solve a certain problem. Back in school, she was a topper and also enjoyed reading a lot of novels. Inspired by everything that she reads, she aspires to become a Yaoi writer someday.

While each of the boys gets their time to shine, it seems as if Nagisa's little "hand puppet" dance is a fan favorite. Perhaps Haru will try a bit harder to get out of his shell for next time.

3 Torture Dance

This famous boat scene is where Fugo, Mista, and Narancia first birthed the iconic "Torture Dance." To add insult to injury, Narancia begins to perform the famous dance in front of a decapitated Zucchero.

While some anime filler arcs can be dull wastes of time, there are exceptions to the rule. These shows all have filler arcs worth watching.
