Strike Witches TV

As was mentioned at Minaide Hazukashii and Chizumatic, the no-pantsu part is way too prominent. We will be fortunate if it's something like the ginormous breasts of Divergence Eve. I might add, I would not like it personally even with the megatits subtracted, but let's talk in general, as an example of a solid story with a strange and disturbing visual element. Or consider the giant heads of Manabi.

Somewhat processed notes follow.

OP is sung by Yoko Ishida. Despite being happy for her getting a gig at last (I think we didn't hear her in anime since AMG TV), the song is rather uninspiring. I wish she snatched another Towa no Hana to boost her sagging career. She is a talented singer. The competition is rather tough these days, especially from up-an-coming CAPSLOCK people. I was incredilous when MAKO stole Kamichu (a Geneon production), but ELISA did a very strong job with ef... It is tough for poor Ishida-san.

It took me a while to convince myself that I see a GONZO production. The designs looked like something from J.C.Staff.

Yoshika's Mom and Grandma wear normal clothes.

The kid Sakamoto in the picture wears the insignia of Major (or something very similar to it). Umm...

Neuroi have strangely poor aim.

Japanese lessons:

  • 先生呼んでくるね (I better call a teacher, eh) -- I have a trouble using kuru/morau/ageru, since neither of languages I knew before had such a form. I continue to get by without unless it's a request, but in Japanese these forms are far more common and carry an important meaning.
  • おことわりします (No, thank you) -- Never heard this before. Another idiom.
  • ーはかせ -- Does this mean Dr. or Prof.?

Overall, I'm not sure if I should continue this. I don't see anything outstanding.

UPDATE: Crisu has a roundup at CJ's.

LATER UPDATE: Omo's take is, "Just because the premise is ludicrous doesn’t mean there’s a license to goof around."
