If you thought Excel Saga was as insane as
anime could get
then you better brace yourself for the mentally deranged Puni Puni Poemi. If you have not
seen much anime comedy then you probably should not start with this one as it
runs at breakneck speed and does not give you the time do wonder what the hell
is going on. Of course you will be too busy wiping tears from eyes what with the
laughing you’ll be doing every two seconds, but even the most hardcore anime fan
will take sometime to get their head around the plot.
As I mentioned this is from the makers of Excel Saga and it makes no attempt to
hide this. Most of the music is the same and, like it’s predecessor, it parodies
every anime you can think of. Unlike Excel Saga though Puni Puni Poemi
does not tell you
what it is parodying and does not base entire episodes around this parody. Although the first episode does parody
Sailor Moon a lot it is a small
proportion of the episode, there is also mickey-taking of mech and rom-com
anime.
If you enjoyed Excel Saga then there is no doubt you will love Puni Puni Poemi as it is
equally as funny and trust me I mean funny! Newcomers to anime comedy may want
to look at something slightly less insane (eg. Ranma, Tenchi) or check out
Excel
Saga first which does gives you some breathing space.
