I’ll admit, this show is probably my favourite of the new crop that has just arrived. Hell, I watched it like four times, three times in raw. That should tell you how good it is… or that I have a huge problem.

First off, I’ll have to praise Itou Kanae’s performance. I’ve been quite… in to her lately, and her lack of presence last season was greatly felt. She has that knack of making her characters unable to get mad at for some reason, and a whole show with her as the lead, especially in a show like Hanasaku, really makes me feel great about this show. I just hope my expectations aren’t betrayed. But so far, Itou Kanae’s Ohana is really a character that I like.

Rest of the cast looks steady, and even Omigawd doesn’t sound horrible at all in Hanasaku. Then again she has like about ten lines and pretty much a third of them are the same ones, so yeah, hard to fuck that up even for her. Toyosaki’s gotten the shy type, so I don’t think we’ll hear a lot of her either, but what really threw me off was Tomoe.

Noto’s so high as Tomoe, it actually took me like ten lines before I recognized it was her at my first watch. Bear in mind, I pride myself of being able to discern her voice instantly, so this is actually quite embarrassing for me to not actually even notice it was her for like ten lines. For further proof, not even Aroduc actually noticed her and he fucking hates Noto. Still, I like that performance of hers, and I sure hope she gets a decent amount of screen time.

Anyways, Ohana’s so cute and d’aww so go watch this show already. Just, uh, try not to get in to a problem with this show like I did rewatching it four times in like three hours, herp derp.

Dog Days is the Star Driver of Zero no Tsukaima. PROVE ME WRONG.

Awesome catchphrase is awesome

Wow, this was actually not half-bad.

It’s like a weird mix of The Incredibles, City of Heroes, Call of Duty and of course, the giant advertising agency that Sunrise has become. Then again, Sunrise usually fucks up towards the late middle/end so we’ll have to see later on. At least it doesn’t seem that the bigger the company the more powerful the Hero bearing their brand is. I mean, UStream can’t be richer than Bandai or Pepsi lulz.

For a first episode, it does quite a decent job of introducing the main players, setting and story while also offering a good hook to continue watching the show and being entertaining throughout. I’ll be sticking along for the ride for a few weeks just to see how it goes and hopefully doesn’t try to be a trainwreck.

Funnily enough, the Hulu rips appeared way earlier than the Japanese raws. Wonder if this will be the trend for the show throughout the season. Seeing Hulu ads in my anime feels awkwardly weird, ahaha.
