Akane Maniax English Sub & Dub

About Akane Maniax

If you are hunting for a new comedy series, Akane Maniax deserves a look (2004). The setup goes like this. At its core: Jouji Gouda is a new transfer student at Hakuryo High. He fell in love at first sight and boldly proposed to Akane Suzumiya, representative of his class, on his first day at the new school.

Beyond that: Although Akane comes across him very annoying, hot-blooded and simple-minded Jouji never gives up and would do anything to express his love towards Akane.

In a comedy series like this, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. It will appeal most to viewers who want something light between heavier series.
