I guess I'm still no
fan of the music genre. Not that I'm expecting so much from Tari Tari but since it's slice of life anime, I
thought that I'd really like it. My first impression isn't entirely wrong but
still, I guess you can never fully judge an anime base on that first
impression. Music genre is something that can barely please me and Tari Tari has got to be one of those…
It seems that it
took me a week to watch this episode. It's not only because I was busy the
entire week but I'm getting bored with this anime. I'm not saying that it's bad
rather it's just not entirely my type. Of course I wouldn't drop my coverage of
Tari Tari for a couple of reasons so
either I'd like to hold it for now or not, I'll continue watching this.
Now for my
impression of this episode, this time around we see Sawa's childhood as she
rides Sabure probably for the first time. AND with that opening scene, it's
definitely a hint that we'll finally see some development on Sawa. I actually
feel that Sawa was never given much attention until this episode. She was
always shown as someone who always approves and support Konatsu's meddling and
she made me feel that she's a secondary character. Anyway, this episode had
shown us that there's more to her other than fatefully agreeing with Konatsu
all this time. She probably had the strongest will to actually sing in front of
a good crowd. While Konatsu was going all over her childhood music, Sawa is
still looking straight to their goal of performing at the World Music Festival.
Other than a few
Sawa developments, we also see Wakana develop a little more. Actually, more
than Konatsu, I think that this series is also focusing on Wakana and how she's
giving up on music despite her mother probably being in love with it. Despite
her decreasing interest in music (or could there be a deeper reason for it?),
she moved faster than Konatsu and asked the flower shop to take their choir
club as the group they'll support for the World Music Festival. Either Wakana
isn't really interested in music anymore or she's just trying to push it away
for some reasons, we'll definitely see her get back to it through the small
things she's doing.
In an overall look
on this episode, as obvious as it seems, I'm starting to get tired of this
series. The music isn't entirely my type but I still do like the song Wakana's
mother was humming. It's beautiful. AND I'm definitely still up for more of
Wien :3
