First Impressions: Uta no Prince-sama

26 JUL

I wasn't expecting that much out of this series. I could tell from the summary that it wasn't going to blow me away with amazing characters or plot. However, I wasn't expecting something so.....lame. It's actually laughably bad at times. Other times, it's just bad. The real reason I'm watching this is because of plethora of bishounens. I have my weakness but at least I can admit that this isn't good. However, something overflowing with sparkles and glitter is.......no I can't say that's a nice change of pace but it's nice to look at without much thought. However, I am serious about the laughably bad part. I mean ep. 4, she tried to find pieces of paper blown into the wind and tape it back together. I cracked up. Also, the dancing is bad. It's awkward and just bad. I am probably going to finish this because of the pretty boys and the fact that it's only one episode a week. So to wrap this up, this show has pretty boys. Bad: plot, characters, music....everything else. But pretty boys.

Like an even worse version of Hakuouki? I only watched Hakuouki for the same reason you (and now I, myself... have since finished watching ep 1 just now) are watching Uta no Prince. Hakuouki has pretty boys but the female lead as absolutely, dismally... weak? I get the same impression from the heroine of Uta no Prince... gaw' the color scheme for her eyes makes it look as if she's this empty minded chick with no clue what's going on around her. I understand making female characters that are weak and then grow stronger (something like Naruto's Sakura and the Sakura from the first 100 or so episodes of Shippuden) but Chizuro in Hakuouki was just beyond salvation in more ways than one. Haruka strikes a rather similar chord but I'll save final judgment until I get to ep 4. Cheers to all the plot pitfalls to come and the endless bevy of pretty boys that will serves as eye candy XD
