I guess I should say something more about Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi, since it's been on so long now that I've been watching a lot of repeats lately. I thought the idea for the show was kind of cool, since I'm already excited to see anything fresh with a Japanese touch, and I was already a Puffy fan (since my pal Barron got me hooked on them) with several CDs popping up on my iPod. The show was kind of a let-down at first, since the crazy episodes were just so frenetic - the first episode I watched kind of gave me a headache! I love the live segments with the real Ami and Yumi, and whenever a re-run shows up on TiVo, I always watch these parts again. The theme song is pretty cool, too, and the concert footage opening is nice. I think the little stories are getting better, at least the pacing is watchable, and they're getting a little more free with the Japanese dialog here and there (which is fun for me to figure out). The best thing they've done so far is include an actual Puffy video right in the middle of the show - it was totally unexpected, but so great! Despite my initial reaction, I guess I'll keep watching, since it can always get better.Labels: animation, life
