Summary:
A former gymnast, Aikawa Maki has turned her skills to a different way of life - street fighting. The only thing that truly makes her feel alive is violence. With amazing power and grace, she fights opponent after opponent, repeatedly demonstrating the gymnastic talent that earns her her nom de guerre, "Airmaster".
I loved the scenario this anime took place in, unlike all other fighting animes, this one has no actual trainer for anything in particular, she just earns experience through her fights and perceptive mind. Didn't like the who part near the end (spoiler so stop reading) where she has to fight to prove she is the best fighter in history.
For all those Mid air action and kicks fans . This is the anime you would like to see . A not so average high school student kicking the daylights out of neighborhood fighters and doing some of the unthinkable moves is something that is considered a must watch . The acrobatics and fighting is really good aside from some impossible moves and such but truly a must watch anime to be added in a collection . One of the best acrobatic animes I have seen so far .
...got hooked on it after the first 10 minutes...you don't see every day a girl in a miniskirt beating the crap out of a mexican wrestler guy...in mid air :))
Tony Hawk should take lessons from this chick...
Story : Good (sorry no spoilers)
Dialogue : Average - Good
Animation : Excellent (the main char. miniskirt's are aerodinamic , so are her enemies when she kicks them...)
Entertainment: Excellent (char are ok , action is good , bit of yuri , bit of fanservice...with muscles and in midair...)
another great anime. with a really good story. animation is awesome threw out the entire anime. it doesnt miss a beat. expect nothing but the best from this anime or so i've seen. but that's only if you are into action comedy tournments and a little drama. but then again it all depens on what kind of person you are and what you like, but i love it.

...a japanese highschool girl in a miniskirt?
this is an awsome anime, albeit that it slaughters the laws of physics, but if you want physics go watch a live action something-or-other. the very first episode involves Maki, the main character, jumping off a large multi-story building and kicking a luchador's (spanish maked wrestler) butt 5 different ways on the way down and then landing on her feet. theres a plot hole here and there but the rest more than makes up for it.
