RAMEN FIGHTER MIKI



Ramen Fighter Miki was created as a manga in 2002 by Jun Sadogawa. In 2006 the manga was
turned into an anime, the directer was Nobuo Tomizawa. The original name for it was
Muteki Kanban Musume, which translated means "the unbeatable delivery girl." it's also been called Noodle Fighter Miki. This anime is only found in subs, it's short with only 12 episodes.

STORY LINE:
The story is about a girl who has recently turned 20 and works in a Chinese
ramen shop with her mother. Miki works as the delivery girl for the shop, but every time
she goes to deliver, she always gets sidetracked by something simple. A lot
of other times she stops what she doing just to beat the crap out of no good punks she sees
in the streets.The story follows her adventures.

CHARACTERS
Miki Onimaru:(voiced by Hitomi Nabatame) Miki is the delivery girl for her mothers Chinese
ramen shop. A hilariously odd character. She has the mind and stubborn
attitude of a 12 year old but the strength of 20 men. This is the kind of person you don't when to piss off. She does have a sweet side... when she's drunk.

Megumi Kannazuki:(voiced by Ami Koshimizu) Megumi is the poster girl for a bakery shop
that is across the street of the Chinese ramen shop. Miki's rival and child hood
foe, she has the special talent of using chopsticks like darts.. she, like Miki, also changes her personality when drunk, becoming a crude person with the personality of a mean
drunk man.


Akihiko Ohta:(voiced by Yuichi Nakamura) Ohta is mainly just a side character but is in
a lot of scenes. He is the owner of a grocery store next to the ramen shop. He likes to
spend alot of his time at the ramen shop to hang out with Miki and her mother. he is also
obsessed with this TV show call star rangers a Power Rangers knock off.

Kankuro bishiyama:(voiced by Nobuyuki Hiyama) Kankuro is a really tough character that just
recently returned to his home town after 4 years of college and is seeking revenge against
Miki for bullying him when he was younger. He challenges Miki to a fight and loses... every day...

Tomoka Kayahara:(voiced by Kaori Mine) Ms.Kayahara is a teacher at the local high school.
she is mostly feared by the students of the school because of her frightening appearance.
at first glance everyone thinks she is a vengeful spirit, especially Megumi. When
Megumi sees her she starts to freak out and starts talking nonsense. She has a very depressed personality except when she is eating Ramen. At that time she is a happy a beautiful
women with a very cheerful attitude.


Toshiyuki:(voiced by Rokuro Naya) Toshiyuki is a vicious dog that hates Miki. Every time he
sees her he attacks without hesitation. The only person that he likes is Kankuro because
they have an understanding with each other.

ART STYLE:
A bright and colorful art style, it's fluidly animated from comdey sequences to fight scenes.You can really tell they took their time with animating, there's lots of fight scenes to keep you entertained.

OVERALL:
I thought this anime was OKAY. I was able to keep a strait face until the fifth episode. It gradually becomes funnier and your treated to a good anime if you can stand to bear it for a while. But thats the thing, you really shouldn't have to wait for your anime to get better. I began to like it more and more as I went on.my favorite character was Ms.Kayahara because she is the funniest character to me. he always scaring people by just being herself, but when she eats ramen she is as happy as a
school girl. At one point she ignored gravity and just climbed up a wall like
spider man, that kept me laughing for 10 minutes. A character that I hated though was
Miki's mother, she looks like a frog and is always beating her daughter and I don't mean
slapping her, I mean putting her face through walls. If your really out of choices at this point, it's worth picking up. But I wouldn't reccomend going out of your way. Go watch Rurouni Kenshin.

The Xtra guy.
