We then go to her grandmothers and everyone in or around the general vicinity may as well wear designer suits and Italian shoes and call themselves the mafia as they all appear just as shifty. Tamaki then meets her grandmother who lives in a large house surrounded by young people serving her every need, Tamaki must have forgotten that about her last visit I am guessing. Her grandmother then tells her she is the Tamayori Princess and she must protect the Onikirimaru and she has five guardians, and doesn’t feel the need to explain anything else. Who doesn’t love surprises?
Tamaki then meets the rest of her crew, suspicious long haired nice man Suguru, Loud mouth angry man Mahiro, emotionless sleepy man Yuuichi, pushover overly nice cute type man Shinji.
The episodes are full of fillers of Tamaki’s feelings and what the hell am I meant to do ness and battle plans repeated a few times to make sure you the viewer are dead certain as to what is going to happen the next few episodes. It could all be made easier if Tamaki’s grandmother shared the fountain of knowledge as she was once the Tamayori Princess she must have a cheat sheet to give, or she just likes putting the world at risk for the entertainment factor.
The bad guys the Logo’s with leading lady Aria along with the so originally named Eins, Zwei, Drei and Vier. Who apparently want the Onikirimaru for something and are stealing all the jewelry like crazed magpies or so it is made out, a few episodes in Aria’s paranoia about her team not obeying her commands comes to light and they just stop doing anything but sit in their mansion while Aria asks bum chest Vier to do some background checks.
While all that is happening there is a man on the phone eating food constantly and keeping watch on what the two teams and what they’re not doing. Ryou is sniffing everyone because a pet fox was not enough. There is also the so damn obvious Fiona Sensei running about the school they all conveniently go to and spying on conversations. Spoiler alert she is Vier, though I would question those who did not guess that.
I feel as if there is little I can say about the art style of the anime other than eyes and eyebrows do not grow over your hair and CGI should not be included in anime unless the anime consists of being made entirely from CGI. When the battles do not include CGI they are quite impressive and they keep you hooked to your screen and stays away from cliches.
The music in this anime is probably one of my favorites from anime this year with the opening song being incredibly catchy and well sung.It is not an opening you skip just to get to the anime.
You will like the anime if you are into slow story flow and being told as little as possible for as long as possible or you are a big fan of the reverse harem genre and having a slight fantasy setting and have ran out of the good ones to keep you entertained. The music will draw you into watching and if you’re like me the CGI blobs in the beginning will quickly chase you out again along with the predictable characters, but if you stick with it you will see some impressive fight scenes and some laughable moments.
