Girls Bravo (Japanese: GIRLSブラボー) is a bishōjo manga (2000) and anime (2004) created by Mario Kaneda (まりお金田).
It features a young male student named Yukinari Sasaki (佐々木雪成 Sasaki Yukinari) who is teased and bullied to the point that he has an almost allergic reaction to most girls, breaking out in hives whenever he comes into contact with them. One day, when he comes back from school, he falls in the bathtub and gets transported to Seiren, a mysterious world with an almost entirely female population.
The anime ran for two seasons: the first season with 11 episodes and the second season with 13 episodes. The series is usually considered a typical fan service harem anime. The TV broadcast of season 1 has become infamous due to the its relatively conservative broadcasting. Most of the objectionable content was censored with non-subtle shadowing, steam, and blatant digital editing reminiscent of the work of Photoshop amateurs. The TV broadcast of season 2 and DVD versions of both seasons did not have the censoring. The series ran mostly at very late nights.
In the U.S., the anime is published by Geneon Entertainment and the manga by TOKYOPOP. In Singapore, the manga is published by Chuang Yi.
