Comments on: Kamichu Review - 85/100 http://psgels.blogsome.com/2007/07/23/kamichu-review-85100/ An anime blog covering a large variety of series, both popular and underrated. Tue, 10 Nov 2009 00:15:42 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=1.5.1-alpha by: Claude http://psgels.blogsome.com/2007/07/23/kamichu-review-85100/#comment-8785 Tue, 29 Jul 2008 16:04:02 +0100 http://psgels.blogsome.com/2007/07/23/kamichu-review-85100/#comment-8785 I liked Kamichu specifically because it wasn't visually stunning. The skirts were actual skirt length and the main characters realistically portrayed, which is itself almost unheard of in an artform where the scool uniform uses a wide pleated belt as the skirt. And the subtle details of how the characters move and react was dead on, although not obvious when you're used to people bouncing off the walls on every reaction. As to the pudding, each episode is its own world and has little effect on others. Only the character development continues on. If it bothers you, remember she ended that episode sleeping off a binge of improving the school.m By the next episode, she had already woken up and fixed everything.

I don't know why people find it annoying -- it's an adorable episode, and easily the best of the first four. It captures the feel of the show perfectly, and is just so over-the-top that it makes for a highly entertaining, highly charming viewing. -Tom I just wanted to drop in and say that the pink alien episode of Kamichu was actually THE REASON I got INTO the show!

Reading your review though makes me want to watch it again. Hope it does not disappoint me for the second time.

And yes, this show goes all over the place in the first half, but I see it as a scattershot effect rather than as a sign of inconsistency. Your childhood is going to be different than mine and everyone else's, after all. And yep, anyone who can sit down to a slice of life show <i>has</i> to see Kamichu.

I know most people find that and the cats episode to be annoying, but I loved ep4. Kamichu! was an instant favorite for me from the time I hit play. I enjoy how it even shines a light on some of the silly things as well. Episode 4 is the pink alien right? I know most people find that and the cats episode to be annoying, but I loved ep4.
