Joukamachi no Dandelion

Joukamachi no Dandelion – 12 (End) and Series Review

September 19, 2015Guardian EnzoUncategorizedAnime, Joukamachi no Dandelion, reviews, Series Reviews

In the end Joukamachi no Dandelion didn’t offer up too many surprises, but that’s by no means strictly a bad thing. You know, expectations are merely prejudices when you strip away all the artifice.  Did Joukamachi no Dandelion live up to mine?  Did it surpass them?  It doesn’t really matter […] Read more

It’s fitting for a series with two sets of twins to have a double episode. Shows like Joukamachi no Dandelion come along every once in a while – forever hovering on the precipice between being subsumed by cliche and satirizing it.  Sometimes it’s quite intentional (Outbreak Company is one example), […] Read more

I wouldn’t mind hearing from the cat every once in a while – why hire Hayami Sho if you aren’t going to use him? Vote Borscht, 2015. So anyway, after a whiplash-inducing quality swing the last two weeks, we got an episode here that was somewhere in the middle.  I […] Read more

Wow – is this really the same show? Happily, it seems as if last week’s ugliness was a mere aberration as opposed to the beginning of a death spiral, as Joukamachi no Dandelion rebounded with one of its best episodes this week after easily its worst.  I’ve developed a considerable […] Read more

Woof – that was a bit of a yawner… As I’ve mentioned before, anytime you have an ensemble comedy like this you’re going to have some fluctuations, because some characters will be much better than others.  And when the others dominate the spotlight you’re going to have a weak episode.  […] Read more

Things just got a bit real all of a sudden. This was a bit of a surprising episode of Joukamachi no Dandelion – not exactly shocking or anything, but a fair bit more tight-laced than the first five.  The humor was played closer to the vest, there was less of […] Read more

Girigiri seefu. It’s been a bit touch-and-go with Castle Town Dandelion but in the end, I think this series makes the cut.  And that makes me pretty happy, because I really wanted this show to work, and not just because I’d pegged it as a sleeper going into the season.  […] Read more

It’s hard to start an anime episode much better than that. OK, I was slightly hesitant after last week’s episode (which was perfectly fine, don’t get me wrong, just a step down), but I’m pretty close to committing after this one.  I found it consistently funny from start to finish, […] Read more

Just because you can talk to a dog in his own language, that doesn’t mean he has to listen. Joukamachi no Dandelion still hasn’t quite closed the sale for me.  It’s close – I get a very positive vibe from this show generally, and the sibling dynamic is especially well […] Read more

Nope – I can’t claim to be impartial. I feel irrationally pleased by how much I enjoyed the second episode of Joukamachi no Dandelion (especially the B-part) – even vindicated, as silly as that sounds.  I think I’m capable of being honest here – I’ve thrown plenty of my sleeper […] Read more
