天下制覇

If you thought that joke was good, then just wait.

The first two episodes were broadcast back to back, though I'm unclear on the broadcast schedule from here out. It looks like everybody but Abema then takes next week off, while they get the one-week-ahead treatment, but I could be mistaken.

Impressions:

Good god, Saturdays are looking awful. This is exactly what I was afraid of when I was looking things up about it; that it would get sucked into endless explanations of stupid trivial nonsense. If anything, it was worse than expected since the 'game' was childish stupidity and the protagonist spent the entire episode repeating "I don't know what that means," so it was twenty straight minutes of obnoxious exposition. Meanwhile, he 'wins' by doing absolutely nothing. Being too confused to act or react in any way, while the idiot girl flails around and exposits herself into abruptly screaming out of nowhere, thus losing. Fantastic. Wonderful. Great characters and story you have here. 

Amazingly, it actually gets worse, but let's save that for the next episode since the other shows are still an hour out from airing and I'm feeling spicy this morning.
