because why not LMAO

when I tell you if I had seen this I would have knocked about an hour off that one mission in NTWEWY. It's the same street, I recognize it, and I am mad all over again

speaking of which

the reason I am watching this in the first place is

Kanon research!! Because someone from the Japanese fandom told me that the Variabeauties are "Paripi", which is what this anime is about (Zhuge Liang aside)

A few minutes in and I already hear one of the "Waaay!" shouts that you hear from the JPN Variabeauties, so this is already legit

NOOOOooooo

The music in ep 1 is pretty nice so far

"I'm hearing an inscrutable tootle" LMFAO

THE MANAGER IS JUST A HISTORY BUFF....

he sprints over if they're talking about three kingdoms stuff

special interest king

there were so many diff songs in just this one, are they gonna keep up this pace/ lol?!

There was a Bard on my FFXIV server standing around town playing the OP last night haha

IT'S SO CATCHY...

it really is lol

Mia is nice to see, she has more Kanon vibes than the main girl

oh she's gonna be mean huh

OOOH HER WORKING OUT SCENE.... am gay

The Stratagems

WHY DIDN'T ANYONE TELL ME EIKO'S SINGING VOICE IS 96NEKO!?

old school vocaloid fans!! watch ya boy kongming!! it's 96neko!! damn!!

trans rigs?

HE STOPPED TO GET STAR SHADES!!

It's. Party. Time.

there wasn't a whole lot to directly comment on in ep 4 but I'm glad Kongming is so good at networking

also them translating the 'ukeru' as SLAY made me laugh

THE GUY JUST RAPS ANYTHING HE OVERHEARS....

oh he has anxiety

HOW did this guy get started on rap battles anyway?

also is he wearing a Mind the Gap shirt

there's no text on it but that's what it looks like lol

Kongming why don't you be the rapper if you've got this kinda flow!!

ulcer boy IS better than him though

I'm still glad he got to perform lol

so this ep is going to be rap battle the whole way through huh? fun lol

so the stalker was in on it lol

PLOT TWIST, LESBIANS IN MY PARIPI ANIME?!

I just finished the rest of this anime!! It was a lot of fun. I cried a little during the last Underworld song when Nanamin saw Eiko and the internal screaming. Eiko just lookin at her like just you wait. and then Dreamer's lyrics are like a direct callout to her, even tho she has been workin on this the entire time

side note I was a little sad that Kabetaijin's rapping wasn't in the final version but I get it, this was Eiko's fight lol

I looked up that scene again tho and someone in the youtube comments said the fullver of that version will be on a CD. so I am content. Hopefully they bring out that version for Summer Sonia!!

CIKI CIKI BAM BAM チキチキバンバン DANCE TUTORIAL -「Ya Boy K...

Eiko×Kabe Sing and Rap Her Own Song | Ya Boy Kongmin... but seriously this scene was so cute. and rewatching it after the ending it fits the final scene even more. which is just kind of adorable cause it's like she also did for Kabetaijin what she did for Nanamin, it was just a little easier in his case

I liked this anime enough that I would rewatch it dubbed lol

just cause I wanna hear the engver of the songs

half of them are in english anyway but lmao

oh, apparently it doesn't exist

I guess because hidive has it?? do they do dubs?? no idea
