No matter where she's fighting, whether on land or water, I have to admit that Botan is actually pretty tough. She may be a bit physically less skilled or powerful than some others unfortunately.

I'm sure this is one mission she won't ever forget.

Boat environment is kinda interesting but too bad Botan couldn't really stop them and had to rely on Kuruma to save her at the last second, this annoying Pino guy is dead though, well who cares about him except his partner xD

Sheeesss, watta dumb way for Pino to tackle Botan on an Zodiac, 1st of all he has a shoe knife where he could've used to stabbed Botan, next he could've just used his henchman to deal with Botan, also given that Pino was able to restrain Botan he could've have just snapped Botan's neck that would've have killed her instantly.

I must admit, I did laugh at the joke about the actual name of A Small House. But it does leave me confused about what language all the characters are speaking. Are they all speaking English (the most likely they'd all have in common) or are they all speaking Japanese?

The 3d/2d jumps are still there, but we're not as jarring this week.

Botan once again failed to defend the shard, ffs. Honestly, this is almost unbearable to watch. But at least the 'small house' joke hit me a bit. Yeah, just a bit. Already pass the half of the season. I must endure this second season of Ex-Arm. Really.

That episode preview though... I'm telling you, this show is hilariously self-aware.

Onaka suita got me, and some of the action scenes are unironically cool. The problem for me (aside from the obvious animation issue) is the pacing being kinda boring sometimes, and some of the story's gimmicks. It reminds me of Ex-Arm a bit in that sense.

The tesla shard was a creative idea, but really underdeveloped. But oh well, I guess Tesla Note was supposed to be an easygoing manga for casual reading with action and comedy from the start.

Ahhh so that's why it's "Una Casita" in subs, it wasn't some random poor choice from the translation team, ok.

Once again, then:

Hmm, A Small House translated to Spanish as "Una Casita", Japanese for "I'm hungry" (Onaka suita)? That joke was funny though, that got me.

All the players have gathered, but it's such an irony that A Small House has lots of the Shards of Tesla at their disposal and know how to use it according to the No. on that label.

On the other hand, the 3D action isn't so hot either, and so is the exposition which felt shallow. It's good learning about each and every property of each Shard, but everything else from Oliver's analysis to the somewhat long-ass stretched fight, that was a pain to watch through the 1st half.

Botan's weakness is that she gets air-headed when she's praised, and this is no exception for A Small House leveraging on that time-lapse of judgment. Lost the shard once too much, and it's really getting unbearable.

Unfortunately...we're only halfway there...

This show is just a big bruh moment.

The same issues repeat themselves several times an episode, so I honestly don't know what else to talk about other than making fun of the characters.

Elmo literally just stands there doing nothing and saying nothing. They probably cut costs by not having to animate him as much, but still, it looks really uncanny and weird.

Speaking of uncanny, both the 2D animation and the fight scenes are terrible and ugly. This episode, and the episode with the church shootout (I think it was episode 4) were the biggest indicators of this fact.

From episode 4, this show was definitely not getting anything other than a 1. But it has been fun so far for all the wrong reasons.

I could not stop crying from laughter because of how bad and good this episode is. It's amusing to see the series acknowledging and make fun of the boring aspect of exposition scenes. Though Pino was barely there, his character was fun and memorable. This is a good serious but people are too thick headed to see past the CGI.

That "Onaka Suita" pun was a prime example of as to why this is so hilarious.


Pino's "Ciao" as he burned alive was more peak corniness haha. Inb4 he returns as cyborg.

While the quality of the animation is hilarious, the way the story's treating Botan is beginning to get annoying. Seriously, can't she get a single victory? She's meant to be this badass ninja trained from birth to be the absolute best, but every time she gets in a confrontation, she ends up needing to be saved by a man (usually Kuruma). It's complete bullshit.
