Review: B-Project: Koudou * Ambitious E.03
I do not even know what to say. This show, so far, feels like a complete and utter rip off of the shoujo anime Uta no Prince-Sama. Honestly, I had high expectations for this anime... don't ask me why. Although the plot line was simple, I assumed that the characters, especially the protagonist Tsubasa, would compensate for that. How wrong could I be. For the first time in ages, I was unable to watch an entire episode due to the pure lack of originality. Sorry Dustin, but I literally had only four minutes left of the episode to watch. (Dustin's Note: It's cool) I suppose I should briefly explain what B-Project: Koudou * Ambitious is about, for those of you who have been fortunate enough NOT to have found out about it. The story centres around the heroine Tsubasa - a new employee in the A&R department of a recording company called Gandala Music - and her first job overseeing the new idol unit B-Project. B-project is comprised of three idol groups: Kitakore, THRIVE, and MooNs and it is Tsubasa's job to support the idol groups with their individual projects as well as the idol unit B-Project.
Tsubasa has worked with Kitakore and THRIVE, so in episode three we finally get to see her work with the idol group MooNs. Yeah. (Sigh) Umm... hmm... so MooN's job is to partake in a commercial for children's curry? Tsubasa attempts to look out for them by making sure they do not hear the staff, on set, talking badly about them, and then at some point her phone is stolen by a monkey. You know... because that is what monkeys who live in mountains do... they steal phones. Anyway after finally catching the phone stealing money, MooNs, the production staff and Tsubasa arrive at a hot spring where they find out that the old lady following them was not the coordinator, but the one who came up with the curry roux. Surprised? No really because I am... not.
I don't think I'll be watching the rest of this anime.
