This anime IMO, has to be the funniest I've ever seen. It sure didn't start out that way. I got the first episode from Newtype magazine, and it was flat out boring. But I was told that it was a lot like Excel Saga and FLCL so I bought the discs when they came out. Don't let the first episode fool you, this is some funny stuff. Especially episode 12. My hat goes off to Luci Christian, who played Sashi in the DUB. Considering she's a grown woman, she pulls off playing a 12 year old horny guy considerably well. While overall the DUB was very good, it makes more sense to watch it in Japanese, much like with Excel Saga. That way all the jokes and puns make sense. On a side note, for such an off-the-wall type of anime, there's an actual story-line. A very vague yet complex one, but a story-line non the less. Go out and see for yourself. Oh yeah, Mune-Mune is fan-service central!
