Not surprisingly, young, perennially broke Hibiki Amawa encounters some problems in his effort to pass as a female gym teacher at prestigious Seitow Sannomiya Junior High (which employs only female instructors). He narrowly escapes when the suspicious vice principal insists he undergo a physical exam, then the well-meaning director of the school sets up an omiai (a formal meeting between prospective marriage partners) with his handsome nephew. Somehow, Hibiki manages to come out on top, usually with help from his gun-toting landlady, Ba-Chan. But his students are also pulling for him, as Hibiki's kind nature is gradually winning them over. As Amawa-sensei, he helps them resolve their quarrels and overcome their insecurities. Strawberry Eggs is a very silly series, but its good-natured warmth more than compensates for the sexist jokes and unnecessary "fan service" jiggle shots. (Rated 13 and older: risqué humor, brief nudity, cartoon violence) --Charles Solomon

5.0 out of 5 stars Continuing to win me over, April 1, 2003

This review is from: Strawberry Eggs (I My Me) - Pop Quiz (Vol. 2) (DVD)

I bought the first one cause I was in the mood for something silly. And while indeed it is a silly anime about this young guy who ends up crossdressing to get a job at a prestigious private school(that only accepts females as teacher) it has a certain warmth that caught me off guard.

The character I like most is young Fuko, who is becoming more and more interested in Hibiki. (our male/transvestite lead)
This situation should provide some interesting moments in future episodes. As she herself is starting to feel unsure of herself because she has feelings for someone who she thinks is a woman.

But it's not all seriousness. This is a comedy, and a pretty naughty one at that. While there's no real sex and stuff to speak of(good thing cause it would bring down the quality) there's the 2 school girl lovers from Hibiki's appartment complex who keep trying to get a peak at the girls in skimpy gym clothes ;-) Ofcourse their plans keep getting foiled by the landlady from hell who's on Hibiki's side. A foundation for some hilarious scenes :-)

all In all highly reccomended

5.0 out of 5 stars Strawberry Eggs continues to please., November 19, 2002

Hibiki's story continues in this second disk. He starts to make mistakes causing the vice principle to question his disguise. Unlike in the first disk where you were forced to believe the impossible, here Hibiki actually panics a bit when his secret may be found out. The schoolkids continue to be quirky and fun adding to the enjoyment of the show. I'm glad I picked this series up on a whim. :)

This review is from: Strawberry Eggs (I My Me) - Pop Quiz (Vol. 2) (DVD)

This might seem hard to believe, but the three episodes within this DVD, are funnier than those in the first DVD! First, the school is having the yearly physical and Hibiki might have to have a physical too! Then, in the second lesson, the students start getting into fights. How will Hibiki handle their flaring tempers? Then, in the last lesson, the school's director tries to set Hibiki up with the perfect man!
During all this Hibiki finds out he likes bras and is starting to enjoy shopping. What is a cross-dresser to do? And does breast size REALLY matter?
The extras are great. Another art gallery and the female student roll call. High ratio of laughs per minute. While only 75 minutes, I think there is more humor packed into the second DVD than the first (as I pointed out before). IF they can keep to these high standards I will have to declare this the best cross-dressing anime series EVER!
