Denpa Teki na Kanojo: Happiness Game

After the high rating that it got in part 1, obviously I was looking forward for the second installment: Happiness Game.


Like the first one, part 2 started with a scene that will definitely got your attention: a highschool boy appeared to kill himself with a knife with two of his friends witnessing the deed.

And then the same sentence keeps on repeating on the screen: I want to be happy.


The story started with Juuzawa Juu being accused of molesting in the train by a couple of highschool girls who earlier received a picture on Juuzawa in their phones. He was saved however by Hikaru, Ame's sister (who looks a lot like Senna from Bleach: Memory of Nobody, only their hair and eye colors are different).

The next day, rumors about what had happened spread throughout the entire school and Juuzawa were annoyingly harassed. Ame was spot on with her analysis. Juuzawa wasn't the only one though. Hikaru received the same kind of treatment because she helped him out. The same goes for the Student Council President, Shiraishi-san. Gradually the harassment started to get out of hands.

With the help from Ame, Juuzawa found the proprietor. The leader of the "Happiness Club" is the member of the school's student council, Ayase, also known as Kuraki. She really was one screwed up fucker. She stayed in the house with her mother corpse rotten in the living room. She was actually taking her revenge on Shiraishi-san because she was the reason his brother killed himself (a fucked up family, ne?)

And you would think that's that. However this awesome show once again blow my mind with it's unexpected ending. It was fucking delicious.

Compared to the first episode, there is less action in this one which kind of disappointing but the way they handled the problem kinda erased my trepidation a bit because it was very subtle. Great example that fighting/aggressiveness cannot always solved problems.

Like I have mentioned, besides the usual cast of Juuzawa Juu and Ame Ochibana, we have several other characters:

Madoka and Kirishima are close friends who helped Ame with this case. They are both very good at fighting too just like Ame. Kirishima might not looks like it but she is definitely one sick chick. If Madoka didn't stop her, she would have killed without restrain. Besides Ame, I really like her a lot.

Hikaru is Ame's younger sister? Anyway, she has a bit of a crush on Juuzawa I think.

Ayase or Kuraki. One fucked up shithead.

However in the end, those characters are just fillers. In the end, it was Ame and Juuzawa that truly matter =3

They are the essence of Denpa Teki na Kanojo

I am so glad that the seiyuu for Juuzawa Juu, Yoshimasa Hosoya, did not forget his habit of 'tsk'ed/clicking his tongue whenever he gets annoyed. Good job for the rest of the crew too for the consistencies of not only the character designs but the voice acting as well.

Hoy fucking shit cunt i've been waiting for this for so long i need to watch it now.

As usual, this was a tremendous success, and was especially awesome. I can't wait for the third one, but wait, here are some reasons why it was awesome:

- Madoka and Kirishima

Kirishima especially, has to be told not to kill someone in order to not kill someone. She's a crazy bitch!

- Ame Ochibana

More and more, I'm beginning to think that she is one of the most awesome characters ever made.

You know what, I'm not even going to bother...maybe I'll write a post about it.

*nods in agreement*

I was taken aback by Kirishima. She was so-so until she had her knife in that dude's mouth. I was practically drooling. If Ame wasn't so awesome, she could easily be my favorite character in the show.

btw, just what the heck is dshshrsjeyswatrjeyuh?

Too excited to type.
