You’re looking at two arcs: Wein’s (this) and Naoko’s (to becontinued next episode). Wein’s arc is like Goldilocks: Just right. Just right for your fellow Akibaranger fan to flow himself with his super sentai feels. What surprised me here is that (1) the hero stint gets real and (2) Wakana doing a falsetto. Oh wait, I shouldn’t be surprised, because Ayahi Takagaki, who voiced Wakana, was once an Opera actress. Now go forth and make that song, Wakana! For the club! Naoko’s basically a forty-something tsundere vice principal who. like Wakana way back then,  has not moved on from Mahiru’s demise.  The next episode ought to be Naoko’s arc. It ought to be. Or else.

Apologies for not covering Tari Tari so well, blogging has to take back burner lately as I’m being forced to actually give 100% at school. But now I’m ready to go, as are the Market Rangers! So far, Wein’s internal … Continue reading →

Because I’ve been immersing myself in VN humor, I found myself appreciating the humor in this episode more than I normally would. Look out, Akibaranger, the Shoutengers are here to steal your gig! CANDY PINK, a.k.a. Wakana Sakai. SECRETLY A COMPOSER. Certain-kill: MANGO BIIIIIMMMMUUUUU! CURRY YELLOW, a.k.a. Konatsu Miyamoto. SECRETLY A SINGER. Certain-kill: CURRY PAAAAAAANCCHHHHIIIII! [...]

Well, that definitely wraps up Wein’s story. I wasn’t quite expecting him to get a real hero moment. Also, why did he have to sing in the end? Knock a guy down and randomly start singing your theme song, I guess. That’s uhh…totally normal. Other than that, the vice principal gives Wakana the generic advice [...]

Jason David Frank would be very proud of Simba right now. As I mentioned last week, I’m a Power Rangers guy, not Super Sentai since I didn’t know about them till the late 2000′s. I would have preferred Papaya Beam … Continue reading →

Well, that was amusing… I guess. The singing was just embarrassing though. In general, I’m getting tired of this show. There are only three episodes left. Where are they planning to go with it? It seems that the answer is … Continue reading →

Having agreed to it as a desperate attempt to raise the money they need in advance of the White Festival, it's time for the Choir Club to put their backs into part-time work as "superheroes". After a stuttering start underpinned by feelings of intense embarrassment, the gang soon warms to their task as "shopping mall heroes", with crowds gathering and interest growing thanks to their efforts to

Oh wow, the sentai episode was way more happening than I expected. It’s kinda fun to see them perform, but when a real crime suddenly occurs and Wien chases him so doggedly, I can’t help but to respect his passion for the idea of justice. Plus singing the thief in to submission? Priceless. Let’s not [...]

The “WestShopRangers” make their debut in the district. Their tempo and timing are off, but the improve with each performance, going up against “baddies” – the shop owners in disguise. When the vice principal takes them to task for having a job, they remind her she approved it, and keep doing it. Wakana goes back [...]

Man, Space Brothers knows how to tease. We knew last week that Mutta wasn’t selected, but they managed to go through that entire episode before we learned who did make it. Not to mention the show’s off-week, we waited a long time. And though we knew that JAXA would chose additional candidates at their discretion, [...]

Because of the e-drama involving Kokoro Connect, I decided to hold off on it until later this week. For now, the focus is on that super-hero skit while Wanaka asks for advice from the vice principal, Naoko about composing music. First of all, Wein is amazing. Although the other members looked kind of flaky at first, [...]

Finally! Only three backlog entries exist! I love how I’m productive today! Anyway, this Tari Tari episode is hilarious and lighter compared to episodes 5-8. It’s honestly a nice change of tone in the character focus episodes, assuming that this episode gives limelight to the character of Maeda, aka “Wien”. ...The post Tari Tari 09 – Turning White And Turning Red appeared first on The dere-moe Project.

This a better episode than the seventh episode. Tari Tari may not be as consistent nor progressive as the other series in this season, but it’s still a good one. It’s the second time I got this hooked to a slice-of-life series, the first time being Working’!!. It’s a given ...The post Tari Tari 08 – Worrying And Racing Ahead appeared first on The dere-moe Project.

If backlogs are bad, then how I work with my Tari Tari would be pure evil. Anyway, this episode was quite a disappointment if I count my numerous nitpicking for my anime. Thankfully it’s still not going to the path of Hanasaku Iroha. This episode marks Wakana’s start in joining ...The post Tari Tari 07 – Spinning In Circles And Losing Sight appeared first on The dere-moe Project.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, I was not able to watch episode 9. The next Tari Tari post will have 9 & 10. Oh, and WARNING: This post is enormous; your head may explode. You have been warned. With the end of Wakana’s arc, Sawa takes the spotlight. To be more precise, this episode focuses on [...]
