Aw, Zerozen is damn cool. Nisio-branded meta conversation is fun as ever, but can't help but feel they should cut them down a bit. The BGM totally makes eme laughs out loud. Overall a lot better than the first episode. I like the ending song this time too.

ちぇりお！

Names of the other important characters seem to be built around descriptive naming as well.
Truly, a hell for a translator.

O_O I'll say. Goodnesss. No wonder nobody wants to do it.

Hmmm... just read the comments on the Mazui Subs web site for episode one, "If episode 2 has anywhere near this level of BLAH BLAH BLAH we're dropping it."

Do you think they were being serious?

I hope not.... they did Spice&Wolf and SHnY (which both also had a lot of BLAH BLAH to use their term). Good grief, this is a Nisio work. OF COURSE, its going to have huge pieces of dialog!

Dialog-minimalist action shounen is down the hall and to the right.

Hey, it's just full of shonen jump series in this room.

SuperKnuckles · 2010-02-09, 14:03

Um... yeah... I'm getting the same cold feeling with certain jokes here like in Bakemogatari.

The way the author writes sometimes, it's like a cool kid in school rambling on thinking how cool and funny he/she is... Sometimes it is genuinely funny sometimes it falls flat on its face.

That said, thank god the dialog is shortened a bit this time.

It's around 50 minutes if i'm not mistaken so i think it's reasonable.

If you have search around you would have realize that it is 50 minutes per episode.

Thedreamer · 2010-02-09, 15:31

STILL! usually mkv are bigger, but now its so freakin huge.
1Go by hour of show ? man stop blow up DD space ;;

Daniel Lind · 2010-02-09, 15:35

Just think of it as a 24 episode series in which case every episode will be your usual ~350mb.

Oh and I reviewed my opinion on Episode 2 after watching it with subs -- my japanese is barely passable to watch Katanagatari with all its outdated language and backwards talking OH GOD THAT BACKWARDS TALKING. I'd say I was more fascinated than on episode 1.

DmonHiro · 2010-02-09, 15:40

The episode was not bad. Too much talking. Badass opponent. Also, GODMAN YOU YUKARIN!!!!! YOU'RE VOICE IS TOO ADORABLE!!!!!!!

This is very true; on top of this I also think Hosaya's doing a pretty good job as Shichika too (despite being his 2nd major role and all).

Also, Togame's line at the end = uber win.

360 x 2 = 720

Its actually about the same.
