My Review of Carole and Tuesday

How did I get into this anime? I’ve been wanting to watch this anime for the longest time. It’s just that when it first came out it was in ‘Netflix jail’. And not just regular Netflix jail, “Japanese Netflix jail”. After it was finally released, I found myself caught up in other ventures like Komi-san, Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure, and Violet Evergarden. I know, I sicken myself for that.

It’s important to note that in this story, people have the capability to live on Mars and the planet is now a terraformed, human-thriving place to live. We have AI technology to thank for that. Okay, now I see the connection to Shinichiro Watanabe directing this anime. I’ve been wondering for years why the genius behind Space Dandy and Cowboy Bebop would do this.

We start the anime with a young girl named Tuesday running away from home with nothing but her guitar and the clothes on her back. She leaves her affluent family behind and ends up in the metropolis Alba City. There she meets a keyboard player named Carole. Carole has been on her own her whole life. During the day she’s at part-time jobs (that she usually gets fired from) and at night, she plays the keyboard. Carole and Tuesday’s meeting was fate. They both connected when they jammed together. After playing on a stage for a few minutes, someone recorded their surprise performance and uploaded it online. The video became a viral sensation and caught the attention a man named Gus who wants to be the girl’s manager.

Aside from seeing the misadventures of Carole and Tuesday, we occasionally see things about a famous model named Angela. She has aspirations of hitting it big in the music industry as well and goes through all kinds of trials to be on par with all the AI generated music these days. But of course, Angela isn’t the main focus of the story, Carole and Tuesday are. They don’t even meet for real until the 8th episode. But Angela who already has name-recognition feels a little threatened by the mellow melodies of Carole and Tuesday. Let’s watch these talented ladies make some music!

BETWEEN THE SUB AND THE DUB: As I said before, this was indeed nabbed by Netflix back in 2019. Sure, it’s no problem now. But count back four years and you’ve got months of pirating or waiting depending on your patience. It eventually aired and as a collective everyone moved on to the next big thing. In later years, it looked as though Sentai Filmworks licensed it as well. Is that what Sentai is going to continue doing? Are they going to take every single Netflix anime series, license it, and redub it? Legitimately asking here! They just did that to Kakegurui. If they do, for the love of God, please don’t let them redub over the songs. And thank you Netflix for not trying to butcher the songs. I always get worried when watching a musical anime that it’s going to happen. Long story short, I loved both the sub and the dub. Here’s what you might recognize these folks from.

DISLIKED CHARACTER: Mamoru Miyano or not, I don’t like Ertegun. To be fair though, there are a lot of Mamoru Miyano characters I hate. Look, the point is I don’t like this guy.

Yeah. His first couple of appearances left a nasty taste in my mouth. Even when it seems like he’s a better man with Carole and Tuesday after losing all his money, I would always be suspicious of the guy. At least with Cybelle, we never see her again after the shady shit she did. This guy, we see up until the end of the series.

SHIPPING: Tuesday sure has had her fair-share of love interests. Well, she had one. But Cybelle was too much of a stalker fan. We actually see another stalker who loved a singer too much here too. But because it’s Angela, they took care of things before she was shot on stage. The Cybelle thing kinda got crazy when she gave Tuesday a hickey and set off a booby-trap that injured her. Yeesh, this woman!

But then we see Tuesday seem a little interested in an investigative reporter named Kyle. She doesn’t have to say anything, her facial expressions and the redness of her face says it all. But one night, she was planning to give him a gift and sees him kissing another girl kinda shattered her.

Now if there’s anyone with an interesting love life that we only see a little bit of is Gus’s. Probably because of his prior marriage to Marie…who is now marrying another woman. This show is totally rep’in the LGBT+ community and I’m lovin’ it.

GUILTY PLEASURE: Yeah, I really like that Mermaid Sisters song.

Admit it to yourselves. The second you heard that song, you found yourself humming it the rest of the day.

HALFWAY POINT: Before the midway point, Carole and Tuesday made it onto the hit reality-competition show Mars Brightest. If I were to explain it, it looked like an American Idol, The Voice, America’s Got Talent mish-mash. The girls made it through to the top 8 out of over 200 contestants. But they were up against some really talented singers including several influencers plus Angela who is doing her singing debut. Their non-use of A.I.’s with their music might seem like it would cripple their chances of winning the competition, but the judges and the audience have fallen in love with the duo. It wasn’t an easy ride here. Before their semi-finals match, a disgruntled Tuesday fan set up a booby-trap that burned her arm. Cybelle was all kinds of red-flags and I pray that’s the last I see of her.

After the semis, Tuesday is kidnapped. Tuesday’s mother (Valerie Simmons) orchestrated this to bring her back home. Tuesday’s mother is a politician and in the middle of an election to become the leader of Mars and doesn’t need her “disobedient” child causing mayhem in the middle of a crucial campaign. Thankfully, Carole, Gus, and Roddy were able to break in and bust Tuesday out (with some help from Tuesday’s brother). Unfortunately for Carole and Tuesday, this bust-out happened on the day of the Mars Brightest finale and they had to hurry up to the studio to perform live. The good news was they made it in time. The bad news, they were disqualified for not being present during the broadcast. But they were allowed to perform despite being disqualified. Their performance was so moving that they were actually given a record contract.

Gus however put an end to them getting a contract from that Mars Brightest judge Catherine. Gus has been in the business a long time and would feel it would be better for the girls if they had a little more freedom when it comes to their music. And so, they all go on a journey for an elusive producer named Tobe. They lured this secret guy out and after scaring the shit out of everyone with an axe, he agreed to help the girls produce.

I know I should have put this in the sub/dub section, but I fucking love John Snyder’s voice. No one ever says anything about this guy and he plays a grizzled, old fuck better than most voice actors. But aside from that, we’ve also got Tuesday’s mother waging a war on illegal aliens in her presidential campaign, a stalker getting a little too crazy for Angela, and Ertegun being financially bankrupt.

ENDING: It’s been well established at the beginning of every episode that Carole and Tuesday were going to cause a monumental moment that will cause a seven-minute “miracle”. So, it should go without saying that the girls hit it big by the end of this series. But what do we have to look forward to before then? Angela’s agent Mr. Tao being arrested. Angela’s mother having a heart attack. Carole and Tuesday working on an album. An Angela A.I. clone. Carole’s friend detained for being an illegal alien. The Mars election. The Grammy’s. All of that happening within the final couple of episodes may seem too much, but I think it all ended quite nicely.

First, let’s get to the Angela stuff. Everyone still sees Angela as the golden child in the music industry and nearly everywhere else. Mr. Tao expanded that by creating an A.I. of Angela. His experiments do go really in depth and can get unethical. Added pressure from her mother Dahlia hasn’t helped her one bit as it just gave her severe stress. Angela ends up getting hooked on pain killers and other medications. But a sudden collapse from Dahlia changed everything. Angela learns from Dahlia that she isn’t really her mother but loves her regardless and then she dies. Angela was a wreck at this moment and still attends the Grammy’s to perform. She gets the Best New Artist award and performs…I think.

I’m not sure if she actually performed or if it was all in her head. Angela’s psychosis almost went to Perfect Blue levels. What we are sure of is that she collapsed on stage as she overdosed on painkillers. Angela’s mental state was out of control that we don’t know if she’ll ever sing again.

The Mars election has been a big thing since the halfway point. Tuesday’s mother Valerie has been climbing up in the polls with her controversial illegal immigration stances. Truth be told is that, she doesn’t really support zero tolerance deportation, that’s her campaign manager pulling those strings. Her manager is not only behind the support for deportation, but also devised a terrorist attack and blamed it on illegal immigrants. Tuesday’s brother Spenser has been trying to save his mother from making a big mistake by continuing with this election any further. Spenser thankfully wasn’t alone as he was with that journalist that Tuesday took a liking to, Kyle.

As for Carole and Tuesday, these two ladies have really been riding their luck and it’s been going pretty well for them. They were able to write the last few songs for their upcoming album, they were nominated for a Grammy, and a notable singer wants to sing with them at the award show. Crystal was a singer the girls have met once before and now she wants to perform with the duo at the Grammy’s. And it was a success!

The girls are happy here, but they can’t help but notice the state of Mars and what could become of it. Tuesday’s mother could become the leader and put in a military state. Carole may never see her friend Ezekial again. Not to mention Angela’s slight fall from grace. The duo wants to do something. They plan with their closest allies to come up with a one-night performance. Gus, Ertegun, and the rest will get in contact with people they can trust. All Carole and Tuesday have to do is write the perfect song to unite everyone who will listen. Easier said than done! Although, this series has shown that these girls were able to make lyrics and music and having it turn out successful. Will it work? We get a conclusion in the final episode for most issues surrounding this series. Valerie listens to her son and drops out of the election, but not before telling off her campaign manager. Mr. Tao got his revenge on some enemies. Tao also paid Angela a visit and gave her a little bit of closure. Both he and Angela are genetically engineered children.

And as for this special moment, many special singers came for this occasion. There were big superstars like Crystal. Past acquaintances from the Mars Brightest competition like Pytor and GGK (not Cybelle thankfully). A singer from back in the day, Flora. And even…Desmond?! I thought Desmond died! And best of all, Angela came too. It seems she’ll go back to singing for fun, like when she was a child. Carole and Tuesday brought those feelings back to Angela with their songs.

All of these artists together on one stage. This was the seven-minute miracle. This song united all who listened. And at the end, we get the message that this’ll be continued…

gasp

In your memories.

D’oh! Cock-tease! I came in thinking I was going to love this anime. I was not disappointed in that department. Netflix has a reputation for putting out hit-or-miss animes. This is definitely one of the best…after Violet Evergarden.

First, I want to talk about the music. Nowadays if the anime is a musical, the character’s seiyuu will do the singing. And that should be an expectation when I see big names like Maaya Sakamoto, Mamoru Miyano, Megumi Hayashibara, and Sumire Uesaka. But there were different singers for nearly every song. I don’t think I’ve heard this since watching NANA and I love it. Another unique thing I saw with Carole and Tuesday was that the girls did not have a spat that almost breaks up the group. We did not see that at all. These girls got along and did their music.

Next…this anime got really current with a lot of things. Yes, I know this anime is set a possible century from now…and for some reason Instagram still exists, but it can still feel relevant. Music is mostly done through A.I. influence and nowadays, it’s starting to look a lot like that. Everything is now thanks to things like A.I. generated art and Chat GPT. And of course, the big thing that stuck out at me was politics. I am in no way an expert in the subject. That wasn’t even my major in school (although coming really close to minoring in poli-sci). I’m just a regular U.S. citizen that keeps up with the news. Seeing the portion of the anime where Tuesday’s mother is talking about cracking down on illegal immigration on Mars really strikes a chord. Yeah, pretty much every administration has their way of dealing with that issue and all of them really did a really lousy job.

I’m pretty sure this anime was making a point with what the Trump administration was doing with the MICE officers. Pfft. I know this really stands for Mars Immigration and Customs Enforcement, but seeing officers wearing uniforms that say MICE on it, I couldn’t help but chuckle a bit. Another bit that was struck during Carole and Tuesday was when it came to artistic freedom. Yeah, this is another thing that I’m noticing a lot of recently. Political figures cracking down on what artists can and can’t do or make an example of. Nowadays, I’m seeing certain states ban books, songs, and other such things. Seriously, just because Miley Cyrus and Dolly Parton sing about rainbows, that needs to be banned? Tennessee, do better! And Florida, you’ve never been good. Just do the whole world a favor and drop in the ocean.

Yeah, I’m gonna stop my rambling here. This anime has been a treat and I encourage anyone who loves music to definitely check this out. Netflix has the whole series available for streaming. Now, if you don’t mind, I’m going to crack down on some Bungo Stray Dogs.

Yuuna's Past:

Having been orphaned as a newborn Yuu knows nothing about her birth parents but it is suspected amongst the nurse-maids of the orphanage she grew up in that they may have been teenage lovers not yet ready to become parents.

When she was left at the orphanage, in front of the buildings door wrapped in a blanket, the first one to find her had been the (at the time) elderly owner of the orphanage who had promptly taken her to a nearby hospital. The woman's name was Maki Kobayashi and upon taking her to the hospital the woman expressed that she hadn't known where the child came from, if there was any reports of a child born fitting her description recently (in hopes of finding a name), and to get her examined and ensure she was healthy.

After a few hours it was deemed that the girl was no more than a day or less old and there were no reports of a child being born fitting her description in that time. It was figured that the girl was likely a home birth left by the birth parents when one or potentially both thought it safest for a new mother to move. She had no name, she had no known relatives and only after Maki brought her in was any kind of birth certification made up for her. The problem that was still present though was her lack of a name.

Taking it upon herself to name and become a primary care taker for the child, Maki decided to give her a name. She chose the name Yuuna in hopes of the child growing up into a gentle and kind young woman and gave her the ladies own the last name Kobayashi in hopes of making her feel as though she was part of a family. Do to Maki being an elderly woman (pushing her last sixties at the time of finding) Yuuna had never really seen the woman as being a mother figure always referring to her as baa.

As Yuuna aged her time with her baa grew more frequent, the girl clinging to the elderly woman and only really opening up to Maki often running and hiding from other workers or those seeking to adopt. As Yuuna grew into her teenage years, Maki's health began to greatly decline and once bedridden Maki named her one child as the successor to the orphanage. Yuuna would be sure to visit Maki daily whether it was in the woman's own room in the orphanage or in the hospital when her health had reached a point of leaving her bedridden.

Maki's final day was in the early summer of Yuuna's 15th year in which the woman expressed her joy of having Yuu be the granddaughter she had always wanted but never had (her son also bearing two son's of his own). She had wished for Yuu to have a good life and to remember to always be kind, to keep seeking the good in everyone and to remain ever gentle but not let herself be taken advantage of.

Maki was the only family Yuuna had ever known, the girl not the least bit interested in finding out who her birth parents were and she often credits Maki to being the reason she is the way she is today.

From  Mahou Sensei Negima!: Shiroki Tsubasa Ala Alba episode 2 (2008)

[keepthisholykiss]

May 2021, Kageki, Ayaki Hikari’s “e to bun” translation - or - the one with all the Capulet Information

Okay here it is the Capulet version of Akachan’s e to bun column. Again blah, blah, this is a fun and casual translation (I also did this one like... particularly quickly and on 0 braincells this week so apologies for any typos that hopefully aren’t there!) also please don’t share it taking it as your own translation etc etc. Anyway please enjoy this new information on the Capulets! I’ll be sure to post the third and final edition next month whenever it is available to me. Also, later this month, I will be posting a translation of Hoshigumi’s Romeo and Juliet (2021) backstage talk from this same issue of Kageki! 

  The Situation in Verona, As I Reveal It - Ayaki Hikari

(title credited to: Iroha Reo)

Hello to all the readers of Kageki. It’s Ayaki, playing the role of Count Paris in “Romeo and Juliet” for the A Cast. This month, I would like to introduce everyone in the Capulet family and ask them the following questions:

(1) Name, (2) Family structure, (3) Is there someone they love? (4) Their favorite point.

I hope you enjoy comparing these answers with last month’s issue.

Otoha Minori: (1) Rebecca (and I like the meaning of the name) (2) Soubu Sakiho is my cousin. But he is like a little brother. (3) I love the whole Capulet family. But I really love Tybalt. (4) I live my life as Rebecca of the Capulets and am very particular about everything in my work. I have a different hairstyle for both A and B schedules so I hope you can see them!

Ooki Makoto: (1) Tigre (2) My sister, from another father, is Murasaki Rira (3) I love my sister the most (4) I’m sure you’ll be able to understand my absolute love and loyalty to my family. It’s not Tybalt’s fault, it’s all Romeo’s fault.

Hiroka Yuu: (1) Leonardo (2) From A Cast, Nijou Hana is my younger sister. From B Cast Mizuno Yuri is my sister. (3) My future love?! Montague Otosaki Itsuki (4) Leonardo means “daring lion” in Italian, so I made my hair blonde and stand up! I hope you can see the sadness I am feeling when I fight with Otosaki in front of the stage.

Murasaki Rira: (1) Sirena (from Sirens in Greek mythology) and I’m 19 years old (2) Half-brother is Ooki Makoto (3) Her brother is her love (4) The Sirens seduce people with their singing voices and lead them to their doom, but I want to do that with my dancing. I want to look different in front of Tybalt and the other Capulets during numbers like during the duel. I believe that a Capulet girl should be more feminine than a Montague girl. So I am conscious of my feminine power on a daily basis. 

Toudou Jun: (1) Theo (meaning God’s gift) (3) I have a crush on Miono Saki (4) I am very particular about my hairstyle!

Iroha Reo: (1) Squalo (3) I have a crush on Otoha Minori… (4) My name means “shark,” so I will try to stay sharp every day! Miono Saki: (1) Marta (2) I am an orphan and a childhood friend of Ouri Mao (3) Tybalt (4) I have cut off a lot of my hair for this.

Amaki Homare: (1) Basiglio (nickname Rose) (2) I am the twin of Soubu Sakiho (3) Ouri Mao and I are together and are being targeted by the Montague Minato Rihi (4) Look at my Super Saiyan-like haircut and my high speed turns!

Soubu Sakiho: (1) Mario (2) Otoha Minori is my cousin (3) I like all the girls. My favorite is Murasaki Rira. I’m not aware of my cousin’s love for anyone. (4) You should look for my lift of Hanayuki Rira!

Nanase Miki: (1) Bianca (2) Ouri Mao and I are sisters but I’m older (3) I am always running after Iroha Reo! But, of course, I love all the Capulets! (4) The moment Tybalt is stabbed, I’m trying to make the best scream to keep it realistic.

Ouri Mao: (1) Kiki (2) I am childhood friends with Miono Saki and Nanase Miki is my sister. (3) Amaki Homare (4) What I am interested in is interactions with otokoyaku! I am hoping to produce different results in both A and B patterns.

Akashi Reima (B Cast): (1) Roy (2) Yuuhi Maki is my younger brother, but we aren’t very close. (3) I like Ayazono Hina but she’s too fickle for me. (4) I’m not quick to fight, but I’m overbearing. And I take my hatred out on the Montagues.

Sakuraba Mai (A Cast): (1) Violet (2) I’m a loner with a free spirit (3) I’ll leave that to your imagination (4) I have long black hair and am trying to make my make-up shine.

Nijou Hana (A Cast): (1) Amanda (2) Hiroka Yuu is my brother (3) Sayaka Rin (4) I made my own hair mesh for the first time.

Sayaka Rin (A Cast): (1) Angelo (2) My cousin is Sakishiro Kei, like a younger brother. I am a close blood relative to Tybalt. (3) Sakuraba Mai loves me and thinks she is my girlfriend and Nijou Hana is my fiancee. (4) I love the multifaceted nature of each situation and the hidden true feelings behind everyone’s eyes.

Yuuhi Maki (B Cast): (1) Sol (meaning “sun”) (2) Childhood friends with Ayazono Hina (3) I like Juliet! I’m trying my best to be a man like Tybalt.

Ayazono Hina (B Cast): (1) Hayna (2) Sumika Amane is my sister (3) I am in love with a lot of people including Akashi Reima. I am a childhood friend of Yuuhi Maki and support his love. (4) I have a younger sister, so I’m trying to make her feel important! Sakishiro Kei (A Cast): (1) Thomas (2) Sayaka Rin is my cousin (3) Juliet (4) I have sharp bangs! Miyako Yuuna (A Cast): (1) Kianna (2) I’ve taken the liberty of setting myself as Tybalt’s younger sister. But I let him know already (laughs) (4) I am 15 years old, younger than Juliet! I am a cheerful girl that is full of energy!

Sumika Amane (B Cast): (1) Chiara (to mean “clear”) (2) Ayazono Hina is my sister (3) I like all men except Montague men (4) This is my favorite play.

Mizuno Yuri (B Cast): (1) Sophie (2) Hiroka Yuu’s younger sister (3) Count Paris (4) I am doing my best to be a Capulet woman who is strong, big-hearted, and cute! Please take a look!

There are only a few performances left! So if you can’t make it to the theatre to watch the play, please watch it on video to see how much everyone cares for their roles!

ISML 2020: Mikoto Misaka Wins Emerald Necklace

ISML 2020: Mikoto Misaka Wins Emerald Necklace Touma Kamijou Takes Emerald Pendant, Index Completes Sweep With Bracelet

By Jo-Ryan Salazar The Bedlam On Baltic Avenue December 1, 2020

On the heels of an update to its version, the Bedlam on Baltic Avenue hit a home run calling the winners of the Emerald Necklace, Pendant and Bracelet matches. You know the name, you know the legend. Winning necklaces is nothing new for Mikoto Misaka. In her bid for a historic reelection as Saimoe Prime Minister, the Railgun could do no wrong in her 4959-2490 rout of Mai Sakurajima. Yui Yuigahama was third with 1714 votes, Mashiro Shiina has 1297 votes, Rikka Takanashi had 954 votes, Rin Tohsaka had 847 votes, Ai Hayasaka had 563 votes and Misaki Shokuhou was last with 475 votes.

Misaka's presumptive partner, Touma Kamijou, finally got his pendant, winning the closest race of the round, a 4075-4034 nailbiter over Rintarou Okabe to secure the Emerald Pendant. Sakuta Azusagawa was third with 1964 votes, Yuuta Togashi was fourth with 1201 votes, Kiyotaka Ayanokouji had 963 votes to finish fifth, Shirou Emiya had 854 votes to finish sixth, Subaru Natsuki came in seventh with 576 votes and Yuzuru Otonashi was dead last with 537 votes.

Completing a signature ToAru Party sweep was Index Librorum Prohibitorum, putting the boots on loli peer Schwi Dola 4997-3410 to lay claim to the Emerald Bracelet. Iroha Isshiki was third with 2115 votes, Chika Fujiwara was fourth with 1401 votes, Eriri Spencer Sawamura was fifth with 906 votes, Nanami Aoyama was sixth with 797 votes, Utaha Kasumigaoka was seventh with 702 votes and Hina Amano was last with 544 votes.

Denied of his chance at glory the last period, Lancer, listed as a 40-1 longshot, delivered the Upset of the Round, albeit a 3919-3307 win over a dark horse in 20-1 Takashi Natsume. Kazuma Satou was third with 2053 votes, Ryuuji Takasu was fourth with 1527 votes, Saitama was fifth with 1236 votes, Yuu Otosaka was sixth with 1003 votes, Shido Itsuka was a disappointing seventh with 808 votes and Tanjiro Kamado was a flat-out embarassing last place with 738 votes in what was a shocker for the favorites as listed by the Bedlam.

Kei Shirogane inched one victory closer to succeeding future sister-in-law Kaguya Shinomiya as Speaker of the Saimoe Diet with a 4660-3315 victory over Chizuru Ichinose. Komachi Hikigaya took the Summer Seasonal four-way race with 3757 votes. Beatrice was second with 3710 votes, Echidna was third with 2159 votes and Shizuka Hiratsuka was last with 1607 votes.

Finally, in what was also considered an upset by way of the predictions, Cirno, one of the most underrated characters in the series, often overlooked by the power tandem of Reimu Hakurei and Marisa Kirisame, won the Touhou Project Saimoe Special Seat with a 3445-2538 pasting of Patchouli Knowledge. While this is considered an Upset by the Bedlam on Baltic Avenue, only one is allowed to be designated the Upset of the Round by BoBA and Lancer's victory in the Emerald Ring match carries more weight.

A series of matches involving musicians, singers and idols also took place. Yuuna Shigemura whipped past Ranko Kanzaki 3108-2291, Kanon Nakagawa prevailed over Miki Hoshii 2701-2569, Nodoka Toyohama eased past You Watanabe 3306-2949, Yui-nyan rocked Uzuki Shimamura 3457-2359, Miku Izayoi crushed Yoshiko Tsushima 3329-2577, Kotori Minami thumped Hikari Kagura 3984-1977, Nico Yazawa raced past Ranka Lee 4526-1723 and Arisa Ichigaya shot down Fumika Sagisawa 2552-2433.

Wrapping up Idol action, Sakura Minamoto defeated Miu Takigawa 2831-2387, Maki Nishikino slayed Lisa Imai 3888-2052, Ran Mitake got past Poporon 2870-2522, Honoka Kousaka drubbed Yukina Minato 3672-2342, Sayo Hikawa won a 2641-2526 snoozer over Iori Minase, Tsumugi Kotobuki pounded Chihaya Kisaragi 4389-1980, Rin Shibuya got the only win for Idolm@ster, a 3392-1917 hiding of Maya Tendou and Riko Sakurauchi salvaged a similarly shocking performance from Love Live! Sunshine!! with a 2747-2573 win over Haruka Amami.

The 2020 International Saimoe League Period continues with the Ruby Period. Vote for your favorite characters at InternationalSaimoe.com and join the ongoing debate. And keep it right here on the Bedlam on Baltic Avenue, now updated to Version 222, for continuing coverage of the 2020 International Saimoe League, the world's premier anime character competition.
