天下制覇

 

Can’t be worse than poutine.

Impressions:

More characters? Really? You haven’t even used the ones that you already have. Not that I particularly want to see an arc about the female that doesn’t have drill-hair or ‘crossdress,’ or Four Eyes, but there’s still at least half a dozen other characters above and beyond them which have also been introduced and then left to rot. At least I know one of the new ones’ names, Takiko. But I only know that because they kept bloody going on about it. I wouldn’t be surprised if 5% of the episode turned out to just being about her name. She otherwise sets herself apart from everyone else by using boku. Don’t get too ambitious here on character designs, guys.

Otherwise, not much. Some might call it a setup or transition episode, but that really is no excuse for pretty much just being them shuffling around aimlessly. You can learn a valuable lesson about friendship or pride or not eating yellow snow and set greater things up, you know. Although I’m not sure what or how many ‘greater things’ this show might even have left in its pockets. Aah, how far we’ve come from orally fixated girls dressed like street walkers eviscerating magical girlfriends and then being strangled by their undead brother. In entirely the wrong direction.
