| Anime Review: Stop!! Hibari-kun! | 18 Jun 2024 | 00:44:44 | |
Meet Hibari Oozora, a fun & flirty trans girl that wears her heart on her sleeve. But don’t let that fool you, she’ll kick your ass if you try to mess with her or her crush.

In this episode, we dive into the story of Hibari Oozora, a charismatic and fearless trans girl who doesn't take any nonsense from anyone. Hibari's boldness and charm challenge societal norms with humor, heart, and some much needed violence, making her a standout character in anime history.
