SYNOPSIS
Tsuyoshi is in charge of a store whose performance is deteriorating. Because of this, he is fired by his boss, Yamada. Unable to tell his wife Miho about it, he begins working hard on part-time jobs to make ends meet. While working, the Hitosuki, Daiki appears. Tsuyoshi, who is exhausted from not being used to hard work, is unable to fight and lets Daiki escape. Taro, who heard from Tsuyoshi that he was not feeling well and “I can’t turn my neck,” misunderstood.
DOWNS
-Tsubasa being so alienated from the others is weird
-It’s so ludicrous, it has gone to plaid with the contrivance of the team helping Tsuyoshi
-Tsuyoshi hiding his job loss from Miho
-The Cerebrans have been gone far too long. Not enough of them this time around
-Has the thread been dropped on them AND the Beastials?
–Tired: hiding info for “mystery” Wired: Layered storytelling with theme and ongoing intrigue
UPS
-The Cerebrans are back and are villains again, maybe
-Tiger Jirou is back and he and Dragon Jirou are chatting
-The team working to help a friend of a friend is sweet
-Oni Sister being “ogre joyed” was fun
–AR World version of that Hitsosuki looks cool, they even made the RIBBON menacing!
WHATS
-Why does money burn Saruhara? Is it just a joke?
-Super Sentai Maid Cafe when?
–Where is the Double Jirou story going? Are there really two of him?
SCORE
Episode 25: 6/10
The story has been stretched far too thin. The episode was just barely enough to keep me hooked. I don’t get why it is like this. Is ny of this building towards the overall narrative?
REFLECTIONS
Is Inoue working in dramatic irony?Dramatic Irony is a literary device by which the audience’s or reader’s understanding of events or individuals in a work surpasses that of its characters. Dramatic irony is a form of irony that is expressed through a work’s structure: an audience’s awareness of the situation in which a work’s characters exist differs substantially from that of the characters’, and the words and actions of the characters therefore take on a different—often contradictory—meaning for the audience than they have for the work’s characters. Dramatic irony is most often associated with the theatre, but examples of it can be found across the literary and performing arts.
