WARNING! OVER SIZED LIKELY NONSENSICAL RANT AHEAD!
I got bored one day, and decided to find a mediocre anime to watch and make fun of. Kampfer already had an abridged series dedicated to it, so I looked up another show and watched Mayoineko Overrun instead.
And I still regret it to this day.
I knew it was going to be below average, but any expectation I had for the show immediately exploded with the force of a super nova when I watched a clip about the show?s high school fighting over whether the girls should wear bloomers or spats. But, being the overtly forgiving guy I am, I decided to give the show more a chance and watched the first episode. I wish to share my suffering impressions with you:
It opens up with a little girl with an annoying voice crying about not being an orphan, or something like that. Oh, and the crying girl gets a panty shot as well. Normally I would give the show the benefit of the doubt, as the girl was using her dress to wipe her tears, but this show makes fills me with so much rage and misery at its sheer badness that I?m actively looking for more reasons to hate it. After that scene we?re introduced to a pair of blue stripped panties.
How endearing!
I have to say, I am very impressed how quickly and completely the show undermines the slight attempt at drama in the previous scene. I had to give it at least a giggle, though not for the reason the animators were hoping for.
We?re then shown OP song, which is sung by a group of baby-voiced women and uses the word ?nyaa? to an obnoxious degree. It?s here that I see another thing that legitimately bugs me about this show: the character designs, specifically the girls. We have three girls shown in the OP not counting the huge boobied motherly figure-like one. One girl is a long haired Rei-clone with cat ears, and the other two are lifted wholesale from the ?Tsundere fetish clich? 101? book. They do the indignant blushing bit, their faces are perpetually scowling while still being cute and rounded; I almost expect them to only be able to say ?It?s not like I like you or anything!?, like some kind of humanoid Pokemon. On top of all that, both of them are designed very, VERY similarly to each other, to the point that the only significant difference is that one of them is short. The lack of inspiration in these designs is outright miraculous. Hell, I?ve drawn throwaway characters that are more inspired than these set of bland girls.
After the OP is over, we?re introduced to our main character, which is more accurately described as a cardboard cutout, though I personally like to think of him as a blow-up doll. Our Normal High School Student Guy?, who lives with his currently abscent sister at a cake shop, is complaining about his lady friend, literally referring to her as ?That girl with the blue stripped panties?. He says her name immediately after, Serizawa Fumino to those who actually care, but I?ll just keep calling her ?Blue Stripes? because she really doesn?t have enough personality to warrant an actual name. Anyway, our blow-up doll goes on about how Blue Stripes is a complete liar and is never honest. Now, it would have been mildly entertaining to see the girl making a thousand little white lies, but since this show sucks, we?re instead treated to a TUNSDERE MONTAGE! Filled to the brim with indignant blushing, ?humph!?s, and multiple uses of the word ?baka?. I?m glad to see the animators are being honest about how much personality their heroine has, i.e. less than a rock. Blow-up doll keeps complaining to the audience about the girl?s lies as he walks out of the door to walk to school. Blue Stripes is waiting for him and, shockingly, declares she wasn?t waiting for his with a ?humph? and an indignant blush.
?We?re now reaching the 3 minute mark?.waaaahh?.
The next scene opens up with Blue Stripes? thigh high covered legs. This single animation takes up a good 40% of the scene. We?re then introduced to one of blow-up doll?s annoying friends, who I will call ?Woman Hating Otaku Stereotype?. He is only notable because he manages to be the most detestable waste of animation in the entire show. I would love nothing more than to run this guy over with lawnmower five times. Predictably, Woman Hating Otaku Stereotype hates Blue Stripes because she?s ?3D?, and that only ?2D? girls can wear blue stripped panties and thigh highs.
?This exchange is SO stupid that it makes my head hurt. Blue Stripes punches him, I cheer, and that?s all the words I?m going to waste on that. Oh, and another one of Blow up doll?s friends show up. I?m calling him Furniture because that?s his role in this episode. After another minute of staring at Blue Stripes? thigh highs, and a quick glimpse of cat ears, the group finally makes it to school. After some Normal High School Life? scenes and some exposition from Blow-up doll about the school, we?re introduced to a loli wearing a school swimsuit?in a normal classroom. Why is she wearing a school swimsuit in a classroom? It?s because:
1. This show sucks
2. The lolicons need something to fap to.
3. Repeat reasons 1 and 2 five more time.
This girl is Umenomori Chise, who will be hereby named Otakuloli, because she?s an otaku, who happens to be a loli. Well, actually she?s just petite, but ?petite? in this context is just another way of saying ?She?s not 12! She?s really *insert ridiculous age number here*?. Like other characters similar to her, she enjoys referencing geeky things and dressing up in fetishzied clothing (like aforementioned school swimsuit). But she lacks the low confidence, introversive personality, and questionable hygiene an otaku would actually have. If she did have those things, she?d be rendered immediately unfappable, and we can?t have that in our pandering harem show, can we? Anyway, Otakuloli is really rich and has her maids set up a blind so they can dress her in the middle of the class. Tasteful!
Otakuloli starts commanding Blow-up doll to dress up as a giant super robot from a fake anime. She then goes on to commanding Blue stripes to dress up as scantily clad female character from aforementioned fake anime. Blue Stripes doesn?t take this well, and her and Otakuloli get into an argument. Blue Stripes, calls Otakuloli a baby with a middle school girl?s body, Otakuloli takes great offense to that, and Otakuloli?s maid walks from under the blind and it falls for some reason, revealing Otakuloli?s naked body. Alrighty! Lolicons, your start fapping in 3?2?!
Stuff happens; Otakuloli tearfully commands Blow-up doll to shake her hand for some reason, he does so, and Blue Stripes, in a shocking display of character depth, ?hmph?s indignantly at this. In the following scene Otakuloli is in a predictably fancy car, speaking with her maids. In a surprisingly amusing (and by ?amusing? I mean ?doesn?t make me beat my head against a wall?) scene, Otakuloli predictably asks whether her breats are small, and the maid responds with ?Yes, your chest I small and beautiful?. Otakuloli then asks her other mait whether her figure is child-like, which the other maid responds with ?Yes, your figure is like that of a fairy who has been blessed by the gods?. This may be giving the episode too much credit (i.e. ANY credit), but I found this exchange almost giggle worthy. After this, Otakuloli (I sure have been using that name a lot in the last few paragraphs), is still going on about people getting people to cosplay as her favorite super robot show characters. She says she needs someone almost as cute as her to play as the female lead when the camera cuts to a pair of bare thighs, though it?s not Blue Stripes?.
More stuff happens, there?s an important cake missing, and Woman Hating Otaku Stereotype thinks some kid stole it. The kid claims that a big human sized cat ate. The kid?s known for being a liar, but Blue Stripes claim she saw a cat as her earlier in the day and?you know what, this post has gone on long enough and it?s more detail than this show deserves so I?ll just rush through the rest of it:
Blue Stripes and the kid go looking for the cat. Otakuloli brings in the previously mentioned pair of thighs into her home, that?s predictably loaded with geek stuff, makes the thighs dress up as a ninja, and then the thighs escape. Blow-up doll and Furniture start baking another cake while Woman Hating Otaku Stereotype keeps being annoying. Some more stuff happens, which includes a miad team and a chicken, Blue Stripes has a flashback about being an orphan, Blow-up doll and Otakuloli have some bonding time, there?s a car crash, a chase scene and finally, FINALLY, we reach the end, where we learn the identity of the pair of thighs from earlier. Apparently she?s a ninja maid catgirl with red eyes, and the episode ends with the catgirl saying her first line: ?Nyaa?.
?If you couldn?t tell from the previous 1000 words, I really hate this show. I seriously never watched an anime that ticked me off so much, not even Queen?s Blade and Ultimate Girls. This show is just?ARGH! And to top it all off, My laptop screen stopped working after I watched this. This show was so bad that my own computer killed itself!
I apologize for ranting, please carry on.
