Nothing Venture Nothing Win

Want to know why I love this show much? Week by week, P.A. Works manages to do something amazing each and every episode. The value of a hard earned dollar is something that isn't preached as often as it should, and I am overjoyed that Ohana demonstrated one of the best character traits to have -- modesty.

Plus New Ending Theme This Week!

"Tearful Chef Romance"

Who saw it coming? I saw it coming. Throughout the entire episode, it would be hard to say that things didn't feel a bit too pushy at times. From Ohana's recklessness to Minchi's extremely hard head, all these things come together to make an episode that will make you want to rip your hair out. But in a good way, sort of.

"Grey Heron Rhapsody"

This past week I had an interesting conversation with a friend of mine. We were sort of arguing about our favorite shows of the season. His was Anohana and mine was Hanasaku Iroha. Can you imagine how heated that conversation got?

"Balut"

More so then any other show airing this season that I've watched, Hanasaku Iroha has successfully managed to become my number one pick. If not for the amazing cast of characters, or the stupidly funny situations, it has to be the show's ability to consistently toy with my emotions -- bringing them up and down at its whim.

"Vengeance is a Staff Meal"

I never knew it was possible for a show to extract such a powerful emotional response from me in just the second episode. Somehow, someway, Ohana is turning into my favorite character, ever. I swear, it has to be that never give up attitude that keeps grabbing my attention.
