About Kill la Kill

Meet Kill la Kill (キルラキル), an action, comedy and ecchi anime by TRIGGER (2013). Here is the premise in a nutshell. The setup: After the murder of her father, Ryuuko Matoi has been wandering the land in search of his killer. Following her only lead—the missing half of his invention, the Scissor Blade—she arrives at the prestigious Honnouji Academy, a high school unlike any other.

Further in, the academy is ruled by the imposing and cold-hearted learner council president Satsuki Kiryuuin alongside her formidable underlings, the Elite Four. In the school's brutally competitive hierarchy, Satsuki bestows upon those at the top special clothes called "Goku Uniforms," which grant the wearer unique superhuman abilities.

As an action title, fight choreography, pacing and sound design carry much of the weight. Voice work is led by Ami Koshimizu as Ryuuko Matoi and Ryouka Yuzuki as Satsuki Kiryuuin.
