“Tickling Priest’s Meditation Group”
What They Say:
Cute but rude! Tatami-chan is a crazy-cute heroine taking on the ghosts, spirits, and even humans residing in the Tokyo metropolitan area in the new Reiwa era! Oshikiri’s unique style is on full display in this thrilling horror-gag comedy, coming soon! This episode has Tatami heading to Karaoke Sound to experience what it’s like in the big city since they’re everywhere.
The Review:
Content: (please note that content portions of a review may contain spoilers)
After an episode involving a mixer gone horribly wrong from every perspective, this episode shifts its focus to the priest. The group has gone to the temple where the priest is for the whole get whacked thing, as they put it, and the priest has his board out and is basically absolving them of things. With the group sitting in front of him meditating and trying to find inner peace, it’s amusing to watch him trying to distract them from behind – without tickling – but unable to do so for the most part. He really wants to and even tries the tickling eventually which gets him to mete out some punishment. He’s not looking for them to purge bad thoughts but just to be available for tickling.
In Summary:
With so many shows delayed this season and so few shorts made as part of it in general, I’m really reduced to little to watch this time around as I focus on shorts overall. This show has been sliding slowly but surely from its bad status to something worse and this one just reinforces it as we don’t even get the weirdness of what we saw in the hot guy mixer before. It’s just a real drag here.
