The problem is Keita is still stuck on his child Garo. Which is obvious from watching this. I've lived in Japan half my life, my wife is Japanese and I nor her really see the comedy aspect of this.

Then the last three or so minutes are made up of the scattered unnecessary and out of place soft core porn.

This show is garbage.

I tend to agree with you...that's why I had said:

This series is all over the place. I know it's still earlier in the game, but so far I'm confused as hell.

That is why I turned my focus to the lovely female cast members.

Well episode 7 came and went and... yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah... I'm not going to bother repeating myself.

I did like the scene when all of them were in the hot tub with Jin though.

Episode 8... oh man, episode 8.

So it starts off as a very obvious parody of J-Horror films, complete with really dark, creepy, and stylized visuals.

And then halfway through it turns into Akibaranger.

I fucking love this show. I'm almost sad that next week the plot starts getting serious.

So why is the series not just 6 episodes long? I mean, if they are waiting until episdoe 9 to start plot, and there are only 5 episodes, left, that means 2-8 were just a waste of time. There was no need to have the series be stretched it this long when they clearly had no idea what they wanted to do with it.

Well in practice it makes sense, have an episode focusing on each hero, bring them together and then face the big bad. But they just ruined it by pairing every plot related scene with either tits or random shit that wasn't funny. They could have made good use of the amount of episodes they had, if the writers had a sense of humour.

Yeah, I like comedy as much as the next guy but the show's execution makes it feel a bit juvenile.

They had an idea. They wanted to do some weird, goofy stories that give the actors a chance to be silly.

Not every episode of every show needs to be part of some kind of complex master plot.

I haven't checked out the latest episode yet but I have to say I found the previous two episodes a step up from the first lot. They still weren't all there, but the comedy bits (such as the sushi "research" and then the questionnaire thing in the following ep) came across a lot better. I just wish it would focus on either that or the fighting, because right now the two are clashing so neither are getting it quite right.
