This seemed like such a cute, innocent idea until I saw the pictures. Bleah.

This App definitely makes me wish I had a Android phone now! (Unfortunately, I can't upgrade my HTC HD2 phone which is pretty cool in its own right until next year!)

I bought the app to play around with; I like the concept, but Hinako's not really my type and frankly, exercise mixed with bouts of sexy fanservice seems...distracting and therefore counter-productive in the long-run.

I'd love it if some of the anime companies got on the bandwagon and made different character versions of the same kind of thing. I could imagine doing sit-ups along with Kamina or push-ups with Haruhi yelling at me. And I bet they'd do Rei and Asuka ones in a hearbeat.

Am I the only person who laughed when they saw the body pillow? No joke, my sides started hurting.

It all depends what muscles you're using.

Wow! That video was definitely creepy. Excuse me, while I try to wash that image out of my head.

That's demo video is kind of funny, partly because of the bad form of the guy working out.

That doesn't even make sense.

Then it's good he didn't do the excerises with body pillow upside-down or face-down, you probably would've ruptured something.

Yeah, I'm sure there are people that worked up a sweat with Hinako Wink .

I was going to download this for laughs but I should have known it would not be free. At 525 yen (roughly $6) it is not worth it.
