Synopsis:
Kill Me Baby is the touching story of Yasuna, a normal (?) high school girl, and Sonya, her best friend who happens to be an assassin. Unfortunately, little Sonya's trained assassin instincts often work against her and others in her daily high school life, as Yasuna's often-broken wrist can attest to. She just wanted a hug, but she ended up with a broken neck. Isn't it sad? No, it's hilarious. Not even Yasuna's intense ninja training can prepare her for the exciting adventures in this explosive 4-panel manga adaptation.

Review:
Is Kill me Baby a great comedy anime or will you be saying Baby please kill me by the end?

For starters I'll just say that this is an episodic anime with no overarching plot and no storyline. So now that that is out of way Kill Me Baby is about two 'friends' in a high-school setting so nothing new there, however the characters are a bit odd as one is typical high-school girl while the other is also in the same role but is an assassin as well which leads to funny interactions between the two characters but gets a bit same like if you binge watch this with it normally starting with first character Yasuna is a normal girl who comes up with a stupid idea and then baits Sonya the assassin into it, and then by the end Sonya has reacted violently beating up Yasuna.
Though aside from this I found the jokes to be well thought out and played well into each episodes overall 'story' as they made me laugh at least once an episode, which makes whole anime as a whole fun to watch up until the end as there is no real ending or cliff-hanger it just stops which I found to not be, all bad but felt unsatisfying by the end.    

As mentioned before the characters can get a bit boring, due to repetitive humour and boring character designs that even with an additional to characters that are unoriginal though with that in mind, I found characters to be highly likeable as their personalities on one hand were fun to watch, even though they are a typical stereotypes and fairy uninteresting they grow on you as time passes; this is also due to the art direction even though the designs are average; the style is cute and helps mixing in well with the tone of the show, even if the animation is okay at best but similarly the soundtrack used helps immerse you into the shows and has a similar sounding tone.
Also relating to cute style there is the Opening and Ending of the show which are really cute and fun to watch though the songs used get annoying as the show progresses.

Overall I believe you should watch this if you want a breather from heavy story anime as this is a relaxing show funny jokes, likeable characters and a cute art style that makes you feel released from high energy shows even though the show runs out of ideas after about 4 episodes and reuses the same ideas over and over again unless you take it slow, in which recommend you watch this every now and then instead of binge watching to get the better experience.
