Kurage-hime 01-02

I meet the ghastly pall casted by Railgun by binging quickly on a variety of anime that were marked in the queue. Kurage-hime is one, selected because someone mentioned derisively how it was about "ugly nerd women" (I think it might have been Nobar, or maybe Sage).

Regrettably, the show went into suspension after 2 episodes. It feels exquisite, and may be perfect for those seeking something different from 10th thousandths pandering vehicle. But I am not enthralled with it the way I was with Oh Edo Rocket.

About the only technical problem with Kurage-hime that I noticed was how Tsukimi stands out from The Sisterhood. Even visually she suffers from receiving too much love by the character designer and artist implementors. In a sense it's normal for leads to stick out, e.g. compare the way Sadako is drawn versus Yano et.al. in Kimi ni Todoke. However in this case, in story terms, Tsukimi is supposed to blend in! It's not going to be the story of Ugly Duckling who is also Judas, right?
