Ookami-san and Her Seven Companions #05 — Bad Touching
July 28th, 2010
And worse sounds.
Impressions:
If you like the narrator and extraneous breasts making loud noises, then good news. If you don’t… well… assume the opposite. The narrator basically talks over about 80% of the episode with Momoko’s breasts filling up at least another 2-3%. I also hope that you’re familiar with the story of Momotaro because this episode is filled with awful puns and references to it. It also almost sort of has something to do with the story too. The excessively honorifc’d and overly padded Momoko comes by to get help invading Onigashima Academy. Of course, Momoko herself talks and acts like she’s about thirty and is vaguely bisexual, so… you know… we’re not that close to the story. The constant bouncing effects whenever she moved also irritated me, but was still sweet balm in comparison to the narrator talking over the story.
Compared to past episodes, the action this time was… not so good. Lots of stills, speedlines, and other nonsense. The antagonist got formally introduced as well in a truly bizarre flashback-laden sequence that was about everything but the trauma it was inflicting followed by a generic RPG boss move of just calling off the entire plot of the dungeon school now that they reached the boss room. "You made it here. Good work! Okay, laters." That’s really it? Couldn’t he have cast Mazio once first? Or Firaga? At least the narrator shut up through it, even if the resolution of their confrontation was… uh… nonexistent. Unless this guy killed Ookami’s family or something like that, I feel like they also overshot the mark with the drama about her meeting him and going into total helpless shock. Even so, it’s hard to take a dramatic moment seriously when one side is wearing cat ears and cat boxing gloves.

Now, it couldn’t be as bad as the sound effects used for the nurse in High School of the Dead… could it?
