Getsuyoubi no Tawawa 2

Season 1 felt like just a few glimpses and tid-bits of a bigger story and tit-bits. The overall mood was like some light, potentially forever-ongoing (but cut way short because of episode count limits) and leading-nowhere slice-of-life 4-koma.

With the same episode number and length as season 1, I expected season 2 to have the same drawback of feeling too short and incomplete. I was pleasantly surprised. This time it follows 4 couples instead of just 2, a huge improvement. The feeling of completeness comes mainly from Maegami-chan's arc because it actually leads somewhere, but the other arcs also get to share it because of all ... the crossovers that are included this time around. This time it is definitely a finished product.

If you are a fan of the serialized manga you will find many skipped details, but also much content that goes beyond it. For example the whole of Maegami-chan's arc from the manga is included in a single episode, skipping over her development, like the reason she became student council president and rushing over her whole struggle to get the teacher. But then it goes on in the other episodes and shows us new things. The fourth couple - a cheerleader/gravure idol and her childhood friend are completely missing in the serialized manga so are a welcome addition as well.

I assume all these extra details are from the original twitter posts. I've not read them, nor even know if they are available in English anywhere at all.

I feel like the amount of focus on boobs has increased this time around, and the illusion of innocence and purity that the manga or first season somehow maintained despite the H-I-J-K-cups has been discarded. Or was I the only one deluding myself that it had any purity at all? Welp, sorry, my bad then. I guess I should stop denying that ep. 2 of season 1 specials actually happened and face the music. The original twitter drawings were nothing but ecchi boobie-girls after all, the story came second, so I should've seen all this coming.

I wonder if they have enough material for another season... I think I'd like it, even with a return to the format of season 1 - less overall story, more instant fun focus, but importantly with more episodes which the short episode duration should allow them to have.

Anime tiddies. Mommy Milkers. Sweater Cows. Bazongas. Oppai. Booba. Hummina hummina hummina awoooga. Train whistle noises. All of these are things you can say about Tawawa.

I remember watching season 1 back when it came out, and was pleasantly surprised that it got more. I love when these very short anime series manage to have continuity between episodes and kind of tell a cohesive story. While it's not a series heavy with a lot of plot, it is heavy with a lot of... "plot", if you know what I'm saying.

The plot is still pretty good, and is surprisingly wholesome considering the J-cup package it's being delivered ... in. Personally my favorite ship is the younger sister with the older friend from school. I give it a 7/10

The old animation company was so much better, the previous season at least looked and felt normal compared to this one. The art style in this one made the characters look like massive walking dolls/insects, the eyes are way too big and the faces are so round for some reason. The story is fine, what can you expect from a boobs focused 6 min episodes.


Nothing else i can say just watch it and if you don't like the art style just drop it i guess.
for some reason theres a minimum to writing a review now on mal so this text is just a ... filler as i have nothing else to say about this anime except the art style...
