Bamboo Blade will certainly not be a huge "aaah, wow, awesome!!" show, but it will be enjoyable. The typical 7-8 rating stuff which lives by the likability (high!) of the cast. You'll see ^_^

I hope they don't overdo it with Tama-chan... the manga already grazed at the limit, and I hope the anime won't push her over the cliff.

I'm a bit shocked about MiyaMiya - they draw her entirely differently compared to the manga (where she's gorgeous and ojousama-like all by herself, not looking dense and sparkling). I'll withhold judgment until I see "dark" MiyaMiya though...

Kirino's VA is spot-on. Excellent pick, and even though she's drawn in a simplified manner, her character is fully recognizable. I want to state that in general I hate hyper-genki-positive girls, but Kirino is the exception. She's simply awesome, and I'm looking forward to seeing her counterpart, Saya, soon.

So, a solid though not amazing start. Just as expected.
