Ok, so many of you probably have no idea what this is. Back when Gurren-Lagann ended there were a few threads on /m/ on how awesome it would be to have Kamina and Kittan as police officers in the afterlife. It was called Garhalla Vice (cause, you know, everyone in GL goes to Garhalla). Eventually people realized it’d be better to just make it all in an alternate universe, and a true /m/an stepped forward to actually draw the thing. That /m/an is captainosaka, and true to his word Double K has become a reality. View the first four pages and other promo art here. I hope this is the awesome beginning to many epic things to come.
This ED is much better, though I find it funny how Kotoko does the OP to every maid anime now.
At least the fanservice comedy here didn’t put me to sleep like Kanokon. That’s really the best thing I can say about this show now, cause everything else is just a bit meh. The set up is interesting and Maid Guy is an awesome character idea, but instead the show focuses on Naeka’s breasts most of the time. The comedy that doesn’t focus on breasts is good and hopefully they’ll focus on that, though the OP does hint at some SERIOUS PLOT later on. The animation switches between “average” and “what’s wrong with their chins?” and this from a guy who finds nothing wrong with Akagi. Some of the off-kilter proportions of Kamen no Maid Guy are truly frightening. I’m going to give this show a couple episodes because I do genially like the premise, but my attempts at actually watching fanservice comedy shows usually don’t work well. We’ll see how this goes. The ED truly is awesome, though.
It’s a fox!
I really like the feel of Wagaya no Oinari-sama. Everything about it just clicks for me. I love this kind of stuff: ancient japanese magic, shintoism, miko’s, gods, etc. Part of the reason I like Touhou so much, too. Kuu-chan is also a great main character, dripping with both sarcasm and infectious enthusiasm. As to be expected from Yukana, who manages to be completely different from C.C. while still throwing in a couple huskily sexy lines. Kou-chan is the more reserved girl, but is fun too in different ways. The hiding on the luggage rack on the train was just hilarious. I can’t wait to see how modern life affects her. Wagaya no Oinari-sama is adapted from a light novel series, and I remember a certain blogger from a while ago raving about them, which is why I watched the show in the first place. Sadly I can’t remember who it was (last time I checked that blog might of disappeared actually), but I can fully understand why they love the series now. It’s a good premise with a couple stand out characters, so it’ll be really interesting to see how things go from here.
