I, Me, and Myself

On the topic of Ai, Mai, and Mii (the Popotan sisters), has anyone seen the nonsensically titled anime series “I My Me! Strawberry Eggs!”? I recall watching this series a few years back (both my sisters loved it), and through the years I’ve come across many other instances of the “Ai Mai Mii” names in [...]

Popotan Second Opinion

Ok, at the urging of Kabitzin I watched some episodes of Popotan. I pretty much arrived at a similar conclusion – if the producers had spent more time on plot instead of fanservice, they could have had a winner. The time travel episodes were my favorite, but unfortunately they comprise a measly percentage of the [...]

Popotan Review

Popotan is the first fully reviewed series for Sea Slugs! so I thought I should write a review of the series as a whole. Apologies for the massive Popotan spamming. Anyways, if I had to rate Popotan, I’d probably give it a 4/5. It was a very strong series overall, but I had to [...]

Popotan 10

I’m making a push to finish this series before I leave town on a business trip tomorrow. On this episode, we learn a lot more about Mare’s past. Apparently she used to be a maid for two strangely feminine, badly drawn brothers and something terrible happened to them. It had something to do with [...]

Popotan 09

Arg, I almost made it to 5 in a row before Kungfucious was able to end my tyranny! Anyway, Popotan 9 was a return to the stuff that makes this series so enjoyable. Although it started out very lighthearted (as the sisters wonder if Mai has a child out of wedlock!), don’t be fooled; [...]
