And frankly, Onsokumaru is one annoying... thing. I can't see how
anyone would disagree with me. Much of the story, characters, and the
jokes, is... juvenile. That's a nice way of saying that it's lame.
Does that mean I'm going to hate the anime series, too? Not quite. I
still have hopes for the anime because, well, I believe, or at least
hope, that ufotable had the sense to do their own story instead of
following the manga straight. And another thing I'm hopeful about is
the casting. There's of course Mizuki Nana as Shinobu, and Kawasumi
Ayako as Kaede, but the one I'm looking forward to most is Wakamoto
Norio as Onsokumaru. As much as I don't want to think this way,
Onsokumaru character can make or break this series.
So, I close with these two words. "Go Chiyo-chichi!" Or for those
poor English only souls, "Go Chiyo-papa!"
