what i was forced to watch this week #38: kamisama kazoku

The lead in Kamisama Kazoku is played by Daisuke Kishio. Dude is totally in every otome game ever. Suffice to say, this is a show about wholesome boys holding hands with demure maidens. And not just any demure maidens, of course, but the ones that are so demure that the thought of hand-holding causes them to blush uncontrollably because kyaaaaaaaaaah I shouldn’t think about that it’s going too far but kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaah I want to so badly no I musn’t! But in case you still can’t quite understand what kind of show Kamisama Kazoku is:

now you can understand why this show got burned

…so obviously, this is a seinen series.

You may wonder why the last image is an obvious example of why this show got burned. The usage of the image is part joke, but part truth. The truth is in how it is an example of a sexual woman being punished. Sexual women, of course, are enemy of demure maidens everywhere. After all, how can a demure maiden, whose arsenal consists entirely of the possibility of hand-holding, compete with the allure of a mature woman when it comes to attracting that wholesome boy? You see, the sexual woman is discreet, but she will haunt your dreams.

Would I watch it even if I weren’t forced? But yeah, the last 3 episode when the evil crazy killer devil MILF shows up and starts killing everybody was all kinds of bizarre tonally after 10 episodes consisting of uncontrollable blushing over the thought of accidental kissing.

  1. lololol why do the girl and boy look like the human versions of Yin and Yang from “Yin Yang Yo!”? RIP OFF!!

    This actually sounds like something really fun to watch in fast forward. While drunk. And possibly on AC fumes (<—that's what the cool kids do these days, right? My dad told me that. Yeah, I need my 49-years-old-granola-eater-bicycle-otaku dad to tell me what cool these days. They don't call us Hikikomori for nothing! BTW, I had to google the term because I didn't know hoe many "i" and "o" it had)

  2. *whispered* Don’t tell her I said this, but I think Hinano may be trying to kill you… :P

    Seriously though, it was cute show, for what it was. They all look bad when you look back. Some worse than others, though. :)

    • Basically, the worst thing I can say about the show is that it’s really incoherent. There’s like three storylines in the show (Samatarou doesn’t want to be a God, then the baby shows up, then the killer devil MILF), and each one just abruptly ends and then a new one begins with no real kind of transitions.

  3. I saw this one as it came out, I think, so I can’t really remember much about it now. I do however remember it as “okay”, but severely overhyped. Nothing I’d watch twice.

  4. “now you can understand why this show got burned”

    Whats with this stupid phrase over and over ? Is this another shitty meme nobody actually knows about ?

  5. Yes, but what the devil does it mean? “Burned” as in tossed away, or “burned” as in burned to dvd-r? I can’t even tell whether it’s a positive meme or a negative one.

  6. burned as in burned on a CDR (back in the day we didn’t have DVD R’s :lol: ) although actually in this case this may have been on my ONE spindle of DVDR’s – the last one before I completely quit burning anime period and would just watch/delete each episode I downloaded.
