Strike Witches 501 Butai Hassin Shimasu is for me, a perfect example of a parody done right, and I'd watch more anytime soon. I couldn't think of a better art style for this anime and I'm very proud of this choice, it is very refreshing. It shouldn't be the only comedy used because it can become very predictable, and in this regard, this anime found an unexpected way to make me and my friend laugh: The art style is far from being a flaw and rather a very efficient comic thrust. Fortunately, Strike Witches' universe has a lot of variety and the characters are deep enough, the show doesn't lack in content for its length. The jokes can be overused very quickly and thus become boring. characters and their interactions, and creating absurd situation.īut sometime this sort of comedy can suffer from multiple problems that this anime avoid very successfully:
The anime use what we expect in order to make fun of every character in a certain way by exaggerating each The force of this type of comedy is that the viewers already are used to the original characters and know their traits. Strike Witches 501 Butai Hasshin Shimasu is one of these comedy spin-off, a parody of Strike Witches. Or even a barbeque would be pretty neat.Obviously before even considering watching this anime, you should, in my opinion, at least watch the first 2 season of Strike Witches.ĭespite having a pretty low score, this anime surprised me a lot and I'll explain why. That is, unless we’re finally going to see the World Witches take off as the previews have been hinting at and get the two teams together for some big mission.
Now that we’re down to the final two episodes, we’ll be getting our last check ins with each team. I know plenty of my younger looking friends can probably relate to this feeling even if they’re well into their mid twenties, but it’s a small somewhat funny bit in a sea of mediocrity and cringing. The best they had to offer would probably being one of their older officers being nineteen years old but still getting carded for buying alcohol (here the age to drink is eighteen supposedly). While the last time they were the focus was pretty chuckle worthy and got some tasteful fanservice in, it’s still pretty low on having many actual solid jokes, and sadly this episode is no exception. The other is more limited since it involves the group going to get supplies for a sick comrade since the Brave Witches recently moved to a colder location to train. It was there on the tip of my throat, I swear to god.
STRIKE WITCHES EPISODES SERIES
This was probably the funniest episode of this comedy spin-off series so far, even if I never quite got to an actual laugh. In this case, they’re pretending to put her into combat and even faking a death scene for her, much to most of the other members’ dismay. Anyway, the first half focuses on the Strike Witches using Sanya in their documentary, which I remember being covered a couple episodes ago but not to this extent. So now, I get to use two episodes worth of material to fit into 400 words instead of just one! This is definitely special for me since I get to cover an episode about both teams each for once, which also means I get to compare them much more directly in terms of comedy and how their character dynamics work! I mean, I still have very little familiarity with the Brave Witches, but hopefully that doesn’t really matter for this instance. Well, just like with the finale of How Not to Summon a Demon Lord, Funimation tried to slip Episode 9 of World Witches under the rug, but I guess realized their mistake and made sure everyone was aware of Episode 10. The 501st try getting Sanya in their doctumentary, while the 502nd try to get supplies when they’re snowed in and some of their own are sick.
