About Student Council's Discretion

If you are hunting for a new comedy series, Student Council's Discretion (生徒会の一存) deserves a look (2009). The setup goes like this. The premise: The members of the learner council of Hekiyou Gakuen are chosen by a popularity vote. As a result, all the members are cute girls except for Sugisaki Ken, who studied hard to enter the council.

From there, the story features the endless chattering of the members full of parodies of "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya", "Dragon Ball", "Death Note", etc.

As a comedy title, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. Kurimu Sakurano (Mariko Honda) and Ken Sugisaki (Takashi Kondou) are two of the characters you will meet early. This one is best suited to viewers who want something light between heavier series. With 12 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.
