I hadn't really heard anything about this anime but I ran across episode one and the summary at animenfo seemed interesting so I gave it a shot. This is a really good show! It seems fighting anime becoming popular again with shows like Airmaster and Naruto... and while the fights in ep1 of Ikkitousen are pretty tame... there's a lot of potential. The art quality is a little higher than Airmaster and I find the characters more interesting. There's also a strong portion of fanservice... the main character slips in and out of her little sundress all throughout the first fight. There's a strong story to back it up though and the show has a strong Rival Schools and Tenjou Tenge feel to it... if you're a fan of either I highly recommend this show.

That's why I keep my hands to myself.

I've only seen a couple screens from links on Rid's site, but it's still nice to see the people who did Agent Aika are still getting work. I'm assuming it's them since the art style is identical.
I'll buy it if it comes to the US. I don't have time to hunt down fansubs so I'll just watch Agent Aika again in the meantime.

Alittle off topic but speaking of Tenjou Tenge.. the manga stopped at which number currently? Man, its taking damn long for book 10 in Singapore and im wondering whether if its totally banned here.

Of all artists, why is Move in this? Their music was well suited for Initial D, but I don't think it would work here. Sigh.
Anyway, it's rare to hear a Kikuko character say "Yosha!" Ha ha ha! As for the anime itself, I will see more of this.

Yeah, pretty much. The beat fits but not the style. Which is sad considering the beat IS their style.
The first episode is like 99% of first episodes, not much happens to give you an idea of how the show will turn out, only how it might be. I wish the Real Bout High School anime had been this way, though. They didn't need to give that the side-story treatment.
