Kakyūsei

OVA and anime

Kakyūsei (下級生, Kakyūsei, lit. "Underclassmates") is a dating sim series by ELF Corporation originally created by Masato Hiruta, as a spin-off of the Dōkyūsei series. An anime OVA based on the first game, Elf-ban Kakyūsei (エルフ版　下級生, Erufuban Kakyūsei, lit. "Elf Version Underclassmates"), was created by Pink Pineapple. The title distinguishes the anime from the similarly titled but unrelated OVA series of the same title, Kakyūsei, also produced by Pink Pineapple, but earlier, in 1995. It had a TV series produced after the success of the OVA. The 14th episode of the TV series was never aired on television. A television series based on Kakyūsei 2 game was also released, as well as OVA sequels and spin-offs based on Kakyūsei 2, that were considerably more explicit than the TV version.
