The animation's less smooth here but the eccentric nature of the series and the sequence at the end tells me that this, if done right, can be a fun and insane show in the process. Paripi Koumei had a good start and much better production and consistency with that show than this first episode alone, but that show was really clean and got stale quickly in the second half to be average/kind of disappointing by the end. This episode's middle portion kind of felt boring and dragged out to me but the beginning few minutes and the massacre sequence made up for that weak portion for sure. I just loved how unforgiving those killings in this episode felt and the turf wars elements present here, although much more context is needed down the line to flesh out what on earth was actually happening here. Leave me interested and drawn in to the bizareness of this world and series, from the first few minutes and the opening choice (and vocals), to the bloody and gruesome Ranko massacre sequence to the beats of Yumechi's singing. The animation felt really stiff, especially for a premiere episode from PA Works, but I feel like the first episode accomplished what it was supposed to. Already a potential dark horse of the season. Honestly, the biggest surprise of the season yet. The OP was moe-moe kyun, but the historical ED indeed has that moe-moe kyun feel. The sudden realization on Nagomi's mind, and despite wanting to back out, there's just NO ABSOLUTE WAY she can now. And when they reach there, the both of them unexpectedly find themselves in the line of fire with Ranko being like a professional assassin killing maids left and right, even to the tune of the song's beat. The unassuming new girl that is 17-year-old Nagomi Wahira coming into 1999's Akihabara and settling into the pigsty-themed Oinky Doink Cafe with another maid (35-year-old Ranko Mannen), her dream of becoming a maid starts here under the tutelage of the cafe manager and regular Yumechi.īut, this cafe is more than meets the eye with shady characters running competitors' maid cafe, and the newbies head to Wuv-Wuv Moonbeam for an errand. Works, directed by Seishun Buta Yarou director Souichi Masui and written by a total newbie.and I have to say that this is WTF the Animation, with maids and guns a-shooting warzone.
