Kenichi is an interesting story in which it follows the training of a young boy. Kenichi Shirahama was bullied during middle school where he got the nick name “Weak Legs”. Upon entering High School he tries to change his fate and joins the school's Karate club to learn karate. But Kenichi isn’t being taught but more like being used as a human training dummy. On his way to school one day he gets knocked down by a strange girl that just transferred to his school and some interesting things start to happen to him.
A student from the Karate Club in the same grade as Kenichi, but considered an upperclassman in the club despises him because he is weak. This causes Kenichi to be challenged by the upperclassman, the loser leaves the club. This is when the things begin to get interesting for him as the transfer student – Miu Furinji it getting into a fight with some street thugs. Kenichi tries to step in and protect her only to be saved by her. After seeing her fight, he decides he want to become stronger. Miu helps him by sending him to a dojo, the Ryozanpaku which in turn takes him as there disciple to train not by one Master but six and not in one discipline but six different Martial Arts. To make matters more interesting the dojo is Miu’s home. Kenichi trains and defeats his upperclassmen only to quit the dojo. This only adds fuel to the fire, the opposite of what Kenichi wanted. Now he is seen as being strong and is targeted by many rivals. A side from having to constantly fight different people, he is tortured during training with his six masters by there unorthodox method of training. With the incredible action scene, the comedy of watching Kenichi get beat up by his masters repeatedly; his growing attraction to Miu and her repeatedly beating him up. Not to mention his sister and other characters tormenting him throughout the series. This is a very good Anime and I would recommend this to anyone that enjoys watching the little guy becoming the big guy even though that is not his goal.
