Actually, that's pretty much half of it:

om·boy [tom-boi] Show IPA
noun
an energetic, sometimes boisterous girl whose behavior and pursuits, especially in games and sports, are considered more typical of boys than of girls.

tomboy
1553, "rude, boisterous boy," from Tom + boy; meaning "bold or immodest woman" is attested from 1579; that of "girl who acts like a spirited boy" is first recorded 1592.

Haven't seen that much of Hibiki to know if she likes masculine things much, but the whole Rocky/boxing thing is pretty conventionally masculine, too. So yeah, she might be the whole tomboy package.

"hot-blooded" and "alpha as [radio edit]" are traits that would traditionally be applied to guys, I'd say. =P

She also punches things.

Also, Vividred Operation was like half a year ago there would be so much work involved in proving the Himawari thing.

It's funny, I don't see the word "tomboy" really used anymore, I wonder if it's because "girls doing conventionally manly things" is more normalized than it used to be? Even if it could be better still.

That's what makes her perfect.

And in that case get wrecked, solbowz. I rest my case.

There's not really much to talk about. It was pretty unremarkable and the whole three of us that watched it had fun doing so and then we moved on to other shows.

I concede the Vividbutt point.

Also, yeah pretty much what Peytral said, plus there's Symphobutt G to give us all of our butt needs now.

Vividbutts had promise, but it got stale fast as they forgot the plot and focused on FRIENDSHIP instead.

Alas.

Alas.
... but they focused on FRIENDSHIP the whole way through. They didn't even introduce much of an actual plot until the last few episodes, so what was there to forget?

The first episode showed potential plot, what with the alone showing up. Then they kinda... forgot about them.

I dunno, maybe I was expecting more battles like in Strike Witches. Bar set to high, etc.

Battles =/= plot.

I think a better way to put it is that they set things up for more drama and action and ended up delivering more slice of life stuff than you wanted.

And even then I disagree with that considering they basically cemented the MotW format since the beginning.

I suppose. Oh well, it's come and gone, and I probably won't go back to it anytime.
