Remember this show? It aired in 2009, a season before Bakemonogatari. It’s an adaptation by Jin Kobayashi of School Rumble fame. The production team is SHAFT. There’s supposed to be at least a legitimate interest for this. Mysteriously though, no … Continue reading →

夏のあらし���春夏冬中 ReviewSummer Storm! Open for BusinessSHAFT is always hit-or-miss when it comes to comedy anime titles. When they get a hit, they can knock the ball out of the ballpark. When they miss, it can be so bad sometimes as to have the bat fly out of their hands, sail into the stands, and whack multiple people in the crowd as it moves like a boomerang. Such is the case with Natsu no Arashi!

Natsu no Arashi
The second season of that Natsu no Arashi cartoon concluded a little while ago, and it had a pretty awesome last episode! In retrospect, the whole show was pretty good, but what held it back was a smattering of okay to downright dumb episodes in the middle.
Something that had me confused for a while was [...]

「君たちキウイ・パパイア・マンゴーだね。」 (Kimitachi Kiui Papai Mangoo Da ne.)
"You Guys are Kiwis, Papayas, and Mangos."
It's the return of Hajime's spicy food pranks. This time it's a "Cutie Kiwi-chan" topping out at two million scovilles, which would make it two times hotter than the hottest pepper in the world, the ghost chilli. This isn't quite the way I imagined them to conclude the second season even though it's similar to the first's, but the salt guy did get his salt!

「レーダーマン」 (Reedaa Man)
"Radarman"
"A professional manga artist and a pervert!?" Why Hajime acted so surprised about that I don't know, because those sure seem to go hand-in-hand a lot lately. I got a good chuckle from that, but this episode really shines with Kobayashi Yuu and Koshimizu Ami making guest appearances. Knowing Yuu's role as Mariya in Maria Holic, the craziness she can exude is well-suited for director Shinbou Akiyuki's works, much like it is here.

The stars magically align and Hajime has a good feeling about the return of the pretty maid girl warrior Yamazaki Kanako. As hilarious as it was seeing Kanako's reaction to the thought of that, we get another unexpected development -- a grown-up, well-endowed Jun in hotpants!

After pretty much resolving the issues between Hajime and Arashi over the last couple of episodes, I suppose it was perhaps inevitable that Natsu no Arashi would return to focusing on Jun for this latest instalment of the series.Indeed, this particular episode depicts a decidedly bizarre day for Jun - After seeing Kaya sneak into her room to mess with her alarm clock, Jun awakes late only to find
