Samurai Flamenco

I can't be the only person on BasilMarket watching Samurai Flamenco.

Or did everyone else drop it after the Guillotine Gorilla scene?

@Deciduous It's weird that I feel like that's a p natural progression for Samumenco.

Is this the one where the guy gets shot on top of the moving train?

@Yumtoast: tbh i didn't know of them before Samumenco
i feel a bit cruel wanting to kick the show for just two particularly bad episodes (out of like...5 that made the Flamenger arc), not including any animation issues (haven't paid attention). it's licensed in a bunch of places outside of Japan so maybe it won't do terribly?

@qtprincessxoxo: i was going to append some yelling about Samumenco in my PM but i'll just do it here: Alien Flamenco was unremarkable but led into the best season finale i could've hoped for and it's pretty meta. despite that, the series continues with Masayoshi becoming World President, slice-of-lifey hijinks and the show is trying to ship everybody. then you meet Goto's girlfriend and TEENAGE TERRORISTS?
read: one of the kids who beat up Masayoshi in ep1 quotes him and then a bomb explodes

RIP Manglobe

I can't remember the last series they animated that sold well.

i'd say it recovered really well between the Super PM/Universe stuff and the recent twist. kinda on the fence about Goto's deal bc it just seems really messed up and kinda dumb, but i guess they needed to do it bc his gf is inevitably related to this arc.

or he's just going to hook up w Mari, idk

That last episode about Goto's girlfriend was depressing.

Dropped it on episode 12.

Like what the hell was that, I actually might continue it because I believe there are only 22 episodes.

It was good, then it was an unfortunately lengthy sentai tribute, then it was starting to actually be about something, then [i]aliens[/i]. I haven't watched the latest two episodes yet, but I heard they're lulzy.
