Joshiraku

[ThereminVox]

Episode 7 was great start to finish.

One thing I've noticed with Joshiraku is that it has been very sparing with the physical comedy, but when it comes, they nail it. Great comic timing. A few weeks ago there was a scene when four of the girls were slammed into the wall, and the fifth went straight through the shōji. This week it was Kukuru's phenomenal table faceplant that cracked me up.

Is it bad that I kind of want the ceiling to randomly cave in two or three episodes from now as a nod to the third part?

[Soliloquy]

Ep 09 is probably the trippiest ever especially the third segment. It doesn't mean not losing steam one bit. I still appreciate the wordplay and talking about relevant issues. I don't know why but I just like Kigu as she slowly reveals her dark personality. Actually there are no characters I hate. They are all pretty much different and likeable.

Can't help but feeling sorry for Marie as she is constantly made of a fool and being left out but she is probably the main one that makes the show more enjoyable.

This episode was a lot easier to figure out than the others, even with my very bad Japanese. I still didn't understand a lot of things: for example, I didn't get why they were talking about children in the first sketch (and thus didn't get the punch line either). The other two were very visual, so I understood the gist of it.

I didn't get any of the cultural references, though.

Thanks again for your help with watching this brilliant show.

(Btw, there was a Shirokuma Café reference in the zoo sketch, I think.)
