…To associate this AWESOMENESS
With this Piece of Lard!
Hence the name change
But no matter how horrible, damn AkiP had to throw in the bait that I just can’t turn away from –
teh subtext!
The Yuri Force compelled me to watch this frikkin piece of lard so I am watching this frikkin piece of lard!
Bring It On…
~
Our protag ladies and gentlemen – who always looks like she’s having constipation or some shite!
Episode one introduces ‘the girl with no name due to amnesia’ making her way to prison charged of murder! Those flashbacks of blood and knife don’t do anything for her case too. This girl with no name is Shimazaki Haruka of course.
1. TGWNN (The Girl With No Name) – Shimazaki Haruka
Just as all guilty trippers think of escaping the first chance they get, TGWNN takes the chance and bolts for the woods in hopes of escaping while the other in-laws who are busy working a sweat look on with ‘no fucks given’ looks as she passes by them.
The guards don’t even try to stop her because, lo and behold, all prisoners have this ring on their wrists that beeps when an escapee reaches a certain distance from the prison grounds and then there is the ‘line that should never be crossed’ that spells ‘DEATH’ to however gets passed but does dear TGWNN care? Nope!
But just because she doesn’t care about her miserable (and straight life – She has a fukkin boyfriend!!!!) that doesn’t mean no other gives a fuck about her. Enter…
2. Yuria Peace – Kizaki Yuria
The Cute Daruma of MajiPri who s aves TGWNN from getting blown into Kingdom-come before she crosses the line of no return!
Probably a play to her nickname and chara name in this show (Peace) she seems to be the one to peacefully bring this chaotic group on law-breakers together.
She takes quite a liking to TGWNN right from the start and many are already shipping these two together and do I blame them? Na-Uh, because I am one of them. It really doesn’t help any when the OP is obviously advertising them…
Or when they are already the source of GAY jokes in the story…
Sorry for interrupting. We will leave you two alone – Nanashi
Peace also takes over the job of team Hormone by narrating to us about the ins and outs of MajiPri and also introduces us to the factions of the house. One of them is occupied by these same girls called – Habu (Venomous Snake)
Other members of Habu are…
3. Daasu – Oba Mina
She is tiny but a crack-fire and her relationship with STFU (Uruseeyo) is kind of entertaining and one I am going to keep an eye on. The tension between them is that much sweeter when you apply it to real life where those who know of team 4 might have an idea as to what I am getting at. Minarun (Oba) is the official captain of Team 4 and even when she came back from suspension, she retained her spot as Captain. While I and many other Minaboob fans think of her as a capable Cap, many others still wish for Haru (Shimada) to be the leader, just because she was a good one while they were KKS!
That tension is brought into the fray here as well and these two have already bumped heads in episode one and the issue is yet to be settled…
which I hope comes down to exchange of fists later on.
Speaking of Shimada…
4 & 5. STFU – Shimada Haruka & Tetsuo – Abe Maria
Yes, for some reason these are are winning the couple of the series award already! They are not only protective of each other but so very protective of each other…
The way STFU is ready to kill anyone who dares hurt Testsuo…
The way that butch STFU melts and goes on her knees at the prospect of a hurt Tetsuo…
My goggles…They steam over!
Was she like, sucking on Tetsuo’s fingers there?!! (After Hannibal TGWNN bit her finger)
FFFFUUUUUU
I am so watching these two as well.
I just hope they aren’t sisters or some shit like that…Well, not that it will change anything if they keep acting like that!
Speaking of Shipping…
6. Komimi – Yagami Kumi
And
7. Trol (Nante ne) – Kimoto Kanon
Damn it, I can’t stop thinking about KataFina whenever I see these two! It’s like their GATAI is forever burned in the front of my skull!
Which won’t be surprising to you all when I say I am shipping Komimi and Trol-non already, even though there is nothing to support them other than the two occupying the same screen space so far.
Kumin is still suffering the character butchering she did in Dansu as Komimi is no different!
But what’s worse and such a blow to the gutt still is the fuckkin ‘MISO –> Nante ne’, Like WTF!!
Okay, granted Trol-non is still scary as shit with that doll of hers and her face….She just knows how to give off this fuckkin scary look. No wonder she gave Gekikara a run for her money as MISO!
Too bad she’s frikkin wasted in this series as she was already power-levelled when she got OWN’d by TGWNN along with Komimi and Nanashi IOW, her raking is below average!
Saying goodbye to a chance of seeing awesome Non and hello to some Komimi/trol-non loving!
This brings me to the last member of Team Snake…
8. Nanashi – Kawaei Rina
Her name is very well fitting because she has no substance whatsoever! It’s like the writers didn’t even try with her character. But I guess that was the point any way.
And now that she has already been used as a rag to wipe the floor, there is no chance she’s hiding some awesome character underneath that boring exterior!
Sigh!
Poor poor Rina-chan!
Hopefully she gets to meet and find some friendship in Juri-chan, who hopefully is on the rival team Mongoose!
Oh…Oh…OH!
Speaking of Rval Teams!!!!!
Thank you yee Gods!
My wish for there to be other Teams other than Snake, and thus sparing us from the horrific pain of TGWNN taking all the screen time, and hopefully introducing some major players too, there is indeed war of the factions at MajiPri. These teams include yours truly..
‘Snake’
Mongoose
Shark
To name but a few. And these teams battle it out for superiority at the prison and Snake should be at the top of that food chain, well, that is if their fearless leader…
Nobunaga
Was still around. She apparently just up and disappeared never to be seen again. So her seat is empty and obviously TGWNN is going to take it over!
Saying they should be at the top means that there is someone who is contending for the top spot and that team is…
Team Mongoose
But of course since Mongoose have snakes for breakfast, you might realise how ecstatic I was from this info dump!
Is Mayuyu teh leader? Is it Jurina? is it the other Team 4 push and best choice Iwata Karen?!! Is it Muthafuckken Sayanee with NMB memmbers?! Better yet…Is it the Old Rappappa and Kitarie (who has already appeared) a member?!!!
FFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUU
The possibilities and anticipation is fuckkin killing me!
Curses!
The acting and plot is no doubt shite but yuri and possibility of cameos is so making me want to follow this piece of lard!
Damn it all!
Episode 2…Come on!
July 17, 2012 at 23:52
English subs are out but I can’t bring myself to watch it… Should I give it a chance?
I still can’t believe they butchered our psycho-shanker Joker—I mean Miso to THAT troll-Non!
I refuse to believe it!!
WHY COULDN’T AKI-P JUST MAKE A PREQUEL ABOUT YUKO RECRUITING THE QUEENS?!!! WHYYYYYYY DAMN IT!
July 18, 2012 at 00:01
The tillion dollar question right there but really, we get what we get and if you use the best advice given about this third installment, in that just think of it as another JDrama but with AKB/SKE members in it, then you might just stand it.
once you associate it with Majisuka Gakuen, you’re done!
July 18, 2012 at 00:15
It’s hard NOT to associate it with Majisuka Gakuen when you’ve watched both seasons and the title, ‘Majisuka Gakuen’ is so blatantly obvious! >.<
If Aki-P is willing to spend more money and time in making MG3 with practically the SAME concept as season 1, if I may add, then how come he can't do the same for Mendol?!!! I'd rather want a Mendol 2 than MG3, tbh.
July 17, 2012 at 23:53
. . . . I was not expecting this. But like you put it up there, the yuri will be the only reason what I am keep watching Majisuka Prison . . . . who knows maybe it gets a lot better (i really hope so).
July 17, 2012 at 23:59
Let’s all just pray they at least stick to that and not go astray like from previous experience. Though they did do great with Nezumi/Centre!
July 18, 2012 at 01:20
Was it that difficult for you to call her Paru?
I know, i sure can’t bring myself to do it. Plus, TGWNN is so much more catchy.
I didn’t hate it, of course didn’t love it either. One thing for sure though, KUMINON
July 18, 2012 at 01:31
It’s not that, I thought her character’s name wasn’t revealed yet?
Then again, I didn’t watch the subs so maybe they did and I missed it, probably during the interrogation which I skipped through.
Is she just going to be known by her real name just like Acchan in MG?
Prolly!
July 18, 2012 at 10:56
Maji ja nee naa! I am still not impressed. Minarun alone is not enough for me to watch this, no sir! Her stare is just not killer enough… And being Shimada in here that cancels out anything else I might find interesting or whatever… But since this is similar to the Original Majisuka Gakuen I am not surprised to put in a memebr whom I can’t stand… in the first it was Oku, not Shimada… Oh well, at least you found something in this you liked BG. Not enough meat for me here…
Btw I didn’t see Mayu’s butt on any of these shots so I don’t think she will be in the rival gang or what-the-hell-is-that…
July 18, 2012 at 15:37
What if her butt was the one seated on the sofa?
July 18, 2012 at 20:07
Nah… At least I hope that she is not here… She doesn’t deserve to be put into this… something… Even though I don’t like her that much but I respect her skills and those are way too good to be vegetating in a drama like this. (But they “punished” Atsko with HanaKimi 2011 so I guess there might be a chance for Mayu to be in this one… )
Btw I know a better place for Mayu’s butt than a simple chair… khm… my lap… khm… 😛
July 18, 2012 at 16:14
I’m also gonna stick to this series….the yuri theme is quite strong..I also can sense a bit of humor by nanashi in later episode also..hopefully…it can gained my attention till the end..
kanon..still rock even with the puppet..
kumin..hopefully she with kanon..hihi..still hv fever with kataomoi finally..
nanashi..her character is nothing in here..but..it give some humor at least..especially when she look at the two doing something..XD
others..hmm..still expecting..more2x..
gonna wait for episode 2..XD
July 18, 2012 at 16:23
Yep, hoping for some Kumin x Non in later episodes too ^^
And well I guess Nanashi is the joker of the group. She does remind me of Konatsu from Gokujo too for some reason
