As they gain national prominence I am wondering if we get a plot where Sakura's family wonders why the girl on tv looks exactly like their deceased daughter.

They had a character named Light do the "Just as planned" thing. Amazing. Also I had to do this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVbZTPcTNH8

It's pretty crazy that the judges acknowledged that Lily improvised a whole new arrangement for that song on the fly, modified her outfit and arranged everything with the staff for the altered performance all in 10 minutes or so and still gave the win to her opponent. Her performance got just as much of a reaction and she had a huge disadvantage. The only explanation is that they thought they'd get backlash for not picking the established star or it was already decided he'd win. It's super scummy btw for a nationally famous performer to go to a 'japans got talent' show to compete against unknowns and local idols. What a douche.

Lily has grown more powerful than Kotaro or the concept of gendered bathrooms. Also, apparently Light has the same VA as Detective Conan.

Kaiser Mazoku posted:Did they just do a Death Note reference I'm not surprised, considering Kotaro is voiced by Mamoru Miyano What I wasn't expecting was for the kid to do it, look like a kid version of Light, say the exact same line with the evil grin, and even share Light's name

Really glad that they remembered that Lily is as much an entertainment pro as Ai or Junko, and has a purer motivation than pretty much anyone else in the group. Hell, she didn't even mind when the rival kid proved to be a little poo poo. Guess during her time she saw her share of conceited little celebrity wannabes.

8one6 posted:Lily was loving robbed! True, but she got the better reward, in a way. Don't think winning a local award with a cute song would get her the same projection as having a dance go viral. Now she ascends to join the realm of internet memes, like the Numa Numa Guy and the Roll of Rick. More powerful than we could ever imagine.

I really appreciate how that whole ending was done. First it's set up by showing how excited the kids in the audience in particular were. Then just a climbing view count and more and more people doing their own vids.

Sephyr posted:I'm cool with how they are handling it. It's there for those who want to see it, and seeded well enough to be developed further along. The whole thing has less than 20 episodes so far, there's sooo much to set up, pay off and reveal! I may be alone in this, but for the moment I am more invested in their backstory, career and zombie-ness than romance plots.

Japan loves scat music, so, makes sense it'd catch on like that. Very cute.

Legendary episode for sure. Tae's break-dancing was the hardest I've laughed this season. Also someone on reddit brought up the amazing theory that Sakura and Tae's graves are right next to each other, so maybe it was just really dark when Kotaro went grave-robbing.

Bit of a lazy way to ditch the whole debt story element, but I'll take it. Watching them simply pay it off through menial work and sound refinancing would be far less amusing. Though it would be fun if they discovered that Junko's bank account from her singer says has been earning interest all this time, but they can't retrieve the cash without giving away her identity.

Fun ep. It's nice they had a breather episode focusing on the daily lives of Saga citizens and tying up the loose ends from S1. Tae-chan was legendary today as well.Mulderman posted:

I was discussing it elsewhere, but I'm becoming more and more certain that Tae is A buddha/enlightened one. Mind empty of earthly concerns, and the universe provides for her.

So with how familiar everyone in Saga is with Franchouchou, and with how much people seem to love them there, do you all think that if they get outed/decide to reveal themselves as zombies that people would accept them if they became famous and loved enough? That's how I would want Revenge to end

I reckon it'll be an intruder who sees their zombie forms, so they wrap them up in a curtain and panic.
