I noticed CR changed the subtitles from "Bag-chan" to "Kaban-chan". I'm not sure why they would.

this episode was an absolute gamechanger, nothing will be the same ever again

Yeah it was a fun ep. The foxes were cute and I was wondering if they were ever going to do a joke about the Friends' clothes.

Also the loving EPIC cerulean avalanche, I was on the edge of my seat. :rock:

*ceruleans slowly slide down mountain without actually rolling*

*music buildup except they forgot the drop and it's just awawawawa instead*

I love this silly show so much.

edit: So someone pointed out that Aya Uchida is both Mirai and Kaban's VA. If Sandstar is able to change something "that was once an animal" into a Friend, that might make it possible for Kaban to be a reborn Mirai as a Human Friend. The obvious (and rather morbid) possibility aside, since Arai-san mentions the hat was "stolen" when the eruption happened, it's possible that might have been the catalyst.


Anyway, here's some silly pictures:

Nah, it's probably the other voice on Mirai's recording. Current theory for that is that because it sounds like the VA for Serval from the game, it might be a different Serval (which would sort of hint that Kaban and Serval's meeting was somewhat fated), but Game Serval's VA is also Giraffe next week so it's possible it could be her and she has more info about Mirai. Guess we'll see!

Also Mirai and Lucky Beast are both Aya Uchida (also Kaban's VA as I mentioned a few posts back).

Man, I wish this show was better. This last episode really showed every single weakness the show has, from the literally three songs in its soundtrack to the awkward timing between both comedic and dramatic beats to the lack of any real animation. The avalanche scene had literally zero tension in it since any motion that could have shown the characters actually hurrying to save themselves happened entirely offscreen, leaving awkward pauses where action should have been, and their escape managed to feel like a huge rear end-pull because neither that run nor the skis were even shown on-screen before the instant they were needed. I bet that 80% of the entire animation budget went into those dancing penguins last episode, leaving just scraps for the actual life-threatening peril that they didn't actually convey.

The gags are good, the animals are well-characterized, and the mystery is compelling, but apart from that I have no idea why I keep watching this pile of garスッゴイィィ! たのしいぃぃぃぃ!

Though I would like to hear if any goons can reassure me this isn't going to end up the same as MLP did.

This show has a huge Japanese fanbase that primarily likes it because it's a cute show about cute weird animal girls being friends and they don't feel insecure or uncomfortable about liking it on those merits alone. I'd like to think most of the English-speaking fandom is the same way, but even if they aren't there's at least one fandom that's just going to keep appreciating it sincerely.

It won't because the MLP stuff all happened while it was airing and it seemingly all but vanished from the internet once it ended and they found something new to latch on to.

I'm not convinced that they were intending to convey life-threatening peril in the first place. I could definitely see them looking at the scene and being like "man, there's no way we can make actually this look cool and actiony without a ton of extra work" and decided to just ham it up instead. I think they pulled it off in a way that probably only this show specifically could get away with at this point. The rest of the episode was pretty great too, so it's like whatever man.

Considering what Japan has been able to do with fandoms like Touhou and Kancolle that don't have a huge depth of source material and pretty infrequent updates, I think it'll be fine. Yoshizaki mentioned they want to keep the project going anyway so I expect we'll get a dripfeed of new stuff enough for the meme/doujin wheels to continue to turn.
