Yes, I watched the recently aired Tamako Market, except that that watching period only lasted for the first quarter of the episode 1. I couldn’t  stand the ‘cuteness’ (moe?) that it’s too silly to the point that it’s disgusting. I haven’t felt like this since keion. I thought with Hyouka and Chuunibyou Demo Koi ga Shitai, … Continue reading »

Tamako Market, while not exactly dislodging Kyoto Animation’s very sturdy foundation and sending it gliding into the busy streets below, is nonetheless a reminder that the studio need not adhere to the formulas of four cute girls doing cute things, or a normal guy and his best friend surrounded by eccentric girls who do nothing [...]

/_\ After Chuu2Koi’s sub-par performance Kyoto returns to the ring with more moefaggotry. Or so it appeared anyway. Thankfully Tamako Market wasn’t as much of a K-ON! derivative as I would have feared. In fact it may well end up being ways better than Hyouka and Chuu2Koi for the virtue of not being an ambitious [...]

Based on its cover, this show is about sweets, a mochi shop and a plump white talking bird. After the first episode, I thought that Tamako Market started off rather decently. From a glance, this show is basically about a girl named Tamako who finds a strange talking bird. Believe it or not, the bird [...]

It’s no secret that the only reason I’m watching both Tamako Market and Sasami-San are because of the studios involved (KyoAni and Shaft). Both studios tend to take nothing stories (shut up, the Monogatari series doesn’t have an actual story) and try to raise them to the point that people sing praises of hallelujah. Tamako [...]

The title of KyoAni’s latest show, Tamako Market, seems like a straightforward affair. Tamako is the main character’s name and the market is an important part of the setting – no tricks there. But viewers with basic Japanese reading ability might notice something odd about the title (no, not the bird nested between the “ma” [...]

It’s a bit late, but first episode is here. So…what’s up with this weird bird? Sigh…I guess he’s there for the “story”. And apparently he has projector eyes >.> what is he a robot? Oh well, it gives me something to speculate about, right? Not much there so far, though…assuming he’s telling the truth, he’s [...]

  Bait and switch, huh? Impressions: For as much as the promo stuff crowed about this being the successor to K-On, it reminds me a lot more of Nichijou, mostly in the sense that I feel like I’m watching a television commercial gag that someone saw fit to turn into a full episode. Only with a [...]
