SYNOPSIS
Shinichi and Taro visit Haruka’s high school as teachers for a special class that teaches the lives of various people. While the students are asked questions, Taro decides to play against the judo club and shogi club that he had challenged. Haruka asks why Taro attacks his teammates who are supposed to “accompany” him in battle. Meanwhile, Chikyuuki appears and absorbed people who did not follow the rules. Tsubasa fights Chikyuuki, but it became transparent and disappeared.
NEGATIVE
-In non-combat scenes, Kiji and Inu look ROUGH!
POSITIVE
-Saruhara’s philosophy on freedom, imagination and money is interesting
DIRECTION
-The camera whirling around Don Momotaro and Blue Knight was awesome, though it did seem as if that camera has a lower quality of video
WRITING
-Is it an inconsistency that Tarou went to the class because he lost at rock, paper, scissors. Can he lose on purpose? Doesn’t he always win? Maybe he was sick of winning? Or was it just for the plot?
GENERAL NOTES
-Haruka is slandered and mocked by the nickname Plagiarist at school
-Tarou confirms that he attacks the others to train them and says he doesn’t want hem holding him back.
REFLECTIONS
-What’s the difference between a friend and a companion?
-What makes a good companion? I guess Tarou defines it himself, right?

SCORE
Episode 7: 6/10
It was a little thin, but it was entertaining overall. The work put into the visuals for the Karate and Shoji is funyy, but it was a bit much and was that done to fill time and pad things out? Same with Saru. It felt more genuine when Tsuyoshi challenged him.
CREATOR SPOTLIGHT
