FUNimation’s added another trailer for a show that landed last week that got caught by the holiday shenanigans as we now have a look at the new trailer for Good Luck Girl. The complete series, bringing out the thirteen episode run in bilingual form, has gotten a DVD SAVE release that brings the show out on the cheap and makes for a good stocking stuffer. Listing at $30 before any discounts, we get the two discs that include a couple fo commentaries, a video commentary, and the clean opening and closing.
Check out our review of the previous limited edition release here.
Plot concept: Ichiko gets lucky a lot. She’s rich, beautiful, smart, stacked, and better than you at everything. But there’s a reason life always goes her way: she unwittingly steals happiness energy from everyone else! Momiji – a poverty god with a freakishly huge syringe and a bunch of oddball charms – has to take Ichiko’s extra good fortune and return it to her various victims of circumstance.
Like an Adderall-raddled cat-and-mouse chase in a funhouse full of pop culture references, the spirit of shortcomings and her self-absorbed subject stick each other with jabs, gags, bizarre bets, and dirty tricks aplenty. It’s a side-splitting ride, and everyone’s seatbelt is defective. But how many blows to the ego can Ichiko take before she grows a sympathy gland and stops hogging all the happiness?
