猫神やおよろず

This is one of the first non-commercial works I ever really got aware of, with some of the first fanart I saw on danbooru, oh, 4-5 years ago? God has it been that long? Thought it was cute art from Ginko/Flipflops, never though we'd fast forward 4 years and it would have an anime. It's another all-star seiyuu cast, including Horie Yui and Tomatsu Haruka as the leads.

[FUNiOP]

That was alright. Not sure who it's for. It seemed pretty kid-oriented, but there were a few things that made me think otherwise. Anyway, I may watch more.

[strangefour]

Woohoo It's on Crunchyroll (http://www.crunchyroll.com/cat-god).

-Aww adorable Op with Touhou like designs.
-Dreamcast fuck yeah!
-Mayu is a bad girl. Father is henpecked.
-Segata Sanshiro!
-In japan a strangely dressed loli with a bunny backpack can buy beer?

-Anti-Binbo-kami defence forced?
-Hehehe. Arranged marriage before checking genders. Do not fight the will of the gods Mayu!
-Now we commence with the curtain fire battle!
-Bullet spam war called on account of Great Depression Binbo.
-Eyes on the road!
-Shamo makes finding sales very convenient.
-This is not beer! This is tea with sugar in it!
-Hehehe. Omelette rice is a step up. They're too poor to be affected by poverty powers. Hehehe.
-Hmm. Shamo is a Curse Maker (http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/144853/).

This show is basically what I would want out of a Touhou a anime. Cute, silly, gods. Plus animal ears.

[Fencedude]

Mayu's a hit with the ladies!

This was lots of fun, the cast is fantastic (Taketatsu Ayana ~desuwa!), and the animation is well done. Yuzu is the quintessential Horie Yui character, so <3 her as well.

I look forward to the rest of the female cast falling for Mayu, and Gonta always striking out with Yuzu.

Also, why are Binbokami always so adorable?

[sickVisionz]

I thought the first episode was only ok as far as humor goes, but I will give it two or three more to get the characters all introduced and to get into a groove where I'm LOLing more.

[TheGreenMan]

Mayu is banished from heaven.
Loli liek to get shitfaced.
So Mayu has two chicks fighting over her. Right on. Mayu...you DO NOT A HUSBAND, BUT A WIFE.
Their fathers are idiots...or knew what they were doing.
Like strangefour said...this reminds a lot of Touhou.

[HitokiriShadow]

Mayu has a wife (to be)! Sadly, Mayu isn't thrilled with the prospect. But her fiancee is!!

It was a bit jumbled, sometimes feeling a bit abrupt in its jumps from scene to scene, but that was pretty fun.

[something]

Episode 1:

- Ah yes, another seiyuu explosion anime. Tomatsu Haruka! <3 Horie Yui! Also, totally did not expect the cats to be human sized. For some reason I assumed they'd be tiny.

- Wait. Beer? Well, okay she's probably hundreds of years old but as far as he can tell... >_>
- Oh and yes, Toyosaki Aki. <3
- Hahah, she bankrupts an entire corporation in revenge for having her beer shaken up. Wait, does beer do that? I don't drink so I honestly have no idea. >_>
- Heh this is like a whole show of Toyosaki doing her "kindergarten Yui" voice.

- Sasana! Kayano Ai! Mayu's wife!!
- And another girl whon loves her! Taketatsu Ayana this time. Man, Mayu sure has a harem.
- Yuzu brings Shamo home. Shamo is so cute...
- Shamo left. Come back, Shamo!
- Of course she does.

Well that was pretty cute. Nothing amazing, but should be totally watchable.

[something]

This show is basically what I would want out of a Touhou a anime. Cute, silly, gods. Plus animal ears.
The original creator is primarily a creator of Touhou doujin works, so yeah I can see that.

[FUNiOP]

Maybe it's because there are so many really bad shows this season and this is one of the few that isn't, but I enjoyed this episode quite a bit more.

[Fencedude]

Yoshino's adorable! And I like how Mayu is quite competent when she bothers to be.

Yuzu rules these gods with an iron fist though.

Needs more Shamo.

[something]

Episode 2:

- Giant pots. They are bad for business. And traffic.
- ....And Mayu dumps it without even looking to see what it contains. It was probably full of gold.
- Yoshino! She's adorable.
- And... bad at judging the size of things. So, no gold, just something necessary to get all sakura trees blossoming. Oops.
- Don't make her cry! Bad Mayu!

- Oh, hah, the trash dude is the guy Shamo put out of business.
- Off to a huge ass landfill. But Mayu's wives arrive to help her!
- Awwww Yoshino. ;_; Don't cry! Dmanit Mayu, find that pot.
- And they do. And it's cute and stuff.

- Shinigami Yaoyorozu!
- SHAMO!! Never go away again, Shamo. <3

[strangefour]

-Mayu has a big box. *cough* And what's up with her ear garterbelt?
-In Japan they use giant jars 10 feet tall as traffic cones.
-Mike is much skinner than he was in Sketchbook Fullcolors.
-Illegal Dumping! I think I's seen that road bend in a dozen different anime. usually someone is driving a moped or car off it.
-Cherry blossom goddess has no sense of scale.
-Mayu shouldn't be getting so much of a guilt trip for an unlabeled jar. -Yoshino is at fault.

-Reimu and Marisa arrive to help search the landfill.
-It's going to turn out to be the wrong jar in the end isn't it.
-Triple Tech (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XCmXL9uiEKc)! Paper birdy bindings.
-What the? When Yoshino's making the trees bloom (17:20~ish) why is an old instrumental song who's name I can't remember playing? It's stuck in my head now taunting me.

There's a bunch of repeated action and dialog in this episode. But for comedic effect it works. Nice to know the grocery store owner lives a happier life as a trash man now. I wonder if he handles next week's mangaka's trash.

[nakimushi]

-What the? When Yoshino's making the trees bloom (17:20~ish) why is an old instrumental song who's name I can't remember playing? It's stuck in my head now taunting me.


I guess you are referring to the piano phrase between 17:20-17:25, which sounded very much like Feels So Good (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V7dg8vRDM68) (starting at 0:15 seconds) to me, but the rest of the song sounded different, so I think the composer just borrowed that part.

[strangefour]

Yes that's it! That trumpet was annoying the heck out of me during and after the episode because I couldn't find what it was and it just kept rolling around my skull. Yeah it's only a small snippet. But it's just so damn familiar it took me out of the show.

[strangefour]

-Dude I could totally do with some art assistant elves who'd draw backgrounds for me. Where can I get some?
-Now that it's done time for elven drinking!I want some plushies of these guys.
-Special issue... *elven panic*
-Oh hey, Effie's boss shows up in the manga.
-Binbo-hime you should probably pay... for... ya know what nevermind. Just don't curse me.
-Shamo is friends with the mangaka. Huh. Wasn't expecting that. How does an artist become friends with poverty incarnate? I figured she'd be a friend of Yuzu's.
-Mayu has the most important duty of all. Playing with a Game Gear!
That's a whole lot of outlets for such a small apartment in the first place.

-Garbageman no more. It's tofu boss time.
-Commence Operation: Imperishable Night.
-Oh no. The frontal assault is a failure. Even Operation: Perfect Cherry Blossom has no effect. These are crafty little special forces elves.

I hope we get to see Yukina and her familiar elves again soon. But Yukina really should have a pair of dancing bloomers with her to go with her beret.

[EmperorBrandon]

-Dude I could totally do with some art assistant elves who'd draw backgrounds for me. Where can I get some?

They're dwarves, seven dwarves, actually. I didn't realize the reference until I looked something up recently. Yukina has the kanji for "snow" in her name too, so doesn't seem to be a coincidence. This Snow White is more of a slave driver than a sweet princess, though. :)

[Fencedude]

Green Beret Dwarf Shikigami? Thats certainly...odd.

Yukina's pretty cool, and nice to see that newly introduced characters just hang around. Yoshino~~~

Mayu really is quite reliable, when she cares to be.

[ndm]

That's really cool - I totally didn't pick that up. The idea of Snow White as a demanding mangaka is a pretty novel idea.

[strangefour]

-Sega (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0y6hIABR-nU)~
-Loli on a tapir has come to steal your dreams. Baku~
-HIKARI NI NARE (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XwLg4tYvg0k)! Not.
-Caviar, foie gras, durain. 1/3 of this food is disgusting.
-Wait she's the Baku not the tapir. But Bakus (http://www.obakemono.com/obake/baku/) are ugly.

-Zettai Ryouiki kitty.
-Aww lil Yuzu with kittens.
-Mayu is over flowing with heartfelt passion to protect Yuzu from pain.
-Yuzu you need to stock things that are not priceless ancient treasures.
-Bikini beach lottery!

Sad experiences become happy memories. Uh okay sure. Dreams are funny that way. Nice to see how much Mayu cares for Yuzu's happiness.

[Fencedude]

Wow, that was actually rather touching. Mayu really cares about Yuzu a lot.

Interesting way to handle the episode, but I'm continually impressed by how serious Mayu really is.

[Suwako Moriya]

I would have liked the episode better if we didn't have the "Because we're facing tiny creatures, they'll be invincible, and we'll be stupid" moment. That was the weak part of the episode.

Yukina is kind of a cruel one, isn't she? No, her relying on the "I won't force you" strategy doesn't negate her earlier attitude.

Actually, speaking of cruel, I'm surprised Mayu hasn't snapped yet, given that people keep treating her like crap. Really, the only thing she's guilty of this episode is putting the "feather" on top of the pile.

I have to wonder. Does that often happen in Japan? I mean, I can technically run a lot more items than were shown running in that joke sequence without any problems.... Not that power outs and brown outs never happen, but those seem to be regardless of how much is running.

I wish the episode has focused more on the manga scenes. I wanted to see the next part, darn it.

[FUNiOP]

This episode was a big step up for the series. It really focused on Yuzu's tragic past and how she's grown in the present, Mayu showing how much she cares about her, and a new character who doesn't seem as caring at first, but as it turns out, does all that can be done to help Yuzu out. It was really tough seeing Mayu try to stop Yuzu from reliving her horrible memory, only to take the form of a normal meowing cat from Yuzu's point of view. It was nice to see it dig up a happy memory for Yuzu, and to see her really grow at the end there.

[strangefour]

-Thanks Gonta, for paying for everyone to go on a beach holiday.
-I curse you once again spiteful rain gods!
-Poverty can with a beach trip?
-Ceiling cat is watching them!
-Why are you still here Gonta? You payed for the trip. Your work here is done. get your man parts out of this episode.
-No inputs? This tv is unacceptable!
-Even the Boss won a beach holiday. His luck is getting better.
-Planning out manga is hard. Especially when Typhoonzilla won't cooperate.

-Thaiphood...
-Time for danmaku ping pong!
-The day is saved thanks to special one time event items in MMOs!

Gonta, say hello to your new friends Akerin and Yuuko. You are now a member of the Universe Hates Me club.

[Suwako Moriya]

Definitely a vast improvement over the previous episode. Focusing on Yuzu's problems and Mayu's caring for her was nice.

Also, while she did get some abuse there was a lot less of the Universe hating Mayu in this episode. Wait, maybe she can join that club too.

[FUNiOP]

Back to random fun after a surprisingly touching story last week. This is the second beach episode this week that wasn't a beach episode. It was also a hot springs episode that wasn't a hot springs episode (although I am surprised when there occasionally is some fanservice, since everything else seems so tame). There was ping pong and some other staples, though. Not bad, though. Just hope we get more of last week's feeling again sometime.

[something]

Episode 3:

- Oooh, Mizuhashi Kaori. As a mangaka!
- Shamooo! The manga she's reading seems pretty cute.
- Haha, Yukina has no problem ordering Shamo around. Even though everyone else is terrified of her.

- Mayu is useless!
- Heh, power consumption disaster.

Ooh, new character at the end.

[something]

Episode 4:

- Hmm who is voicing new girl... ah, Takagahi Ayahi, bringing us to 3/4ths of Sphere.
- Yumekui Yurara!
- Mayu's dream involves sleeping on Meiko's lap. =D
- Oh and I guess we have something that passes for plot: Yuzu's struggles to live up to her father's legacy as an antiques dealer. Aw you're so cute Yuzu.
- Little Yuzu!
- Zettai ryouiki!

- Damn, Mayu is getting passionate about this. Very sweet of her. She loves Yuzu~
- Little Yuzu's angry "buu buuu~" is adorable.

Very nice episode. Awww.

Next time, Yuzu in a bikini! Yay! Hopefully Yoshino too.

[FUNiOP]

Oh good, we're back to nice stories of Yuzu's past. This time, it's not too far back, as everyone looks exactly the same age, and it doesn't involve tragedies like the last one, although that particular tragedy was essentially the cause of Yuzu's determination. I can't say I care about antiques at all, but I think you could have replaced antiques with anything and it would have worked. What mattered was Yuzu's love for something she's passionate about, and her desire to honor her late parents, and to learn from the grandfather she respects, as well as to show how much she had already learned from her parents before they passed. Unfortunately, it looks like next week won't be as good, like the previous one was.

Also, the existence of gods was completely irrelevant to this episode.

[strangefour]

-Segata Sanshiro must be Mayu's grandfather.
-Speaking of grandfathers with the potential for awesome.
-Mayu likes sitting in high places. A catlike behavior I don't think she's done before.
-Pottery fakery.

-Cat gods do not forgive things like that slimeball.
-Cat god vs cat burglar. FIGHT!
-Yuzu kicks ass at shell games.

Flashback to Yuzu before she started the store is nice. Interesting that Mayu has been there longer than I thought too. But rainy day episodes always make me fell melancholy.

[Fencedude]

Way too much Gonta, not nearly enough swimsuits.

[Fencedude]

You know, Yuzu's normal outfit is strange. Its a Yukata/Kimono up top, but a dress down below. I don't know why this bothers me.

She also looked great in that simple white one-piece during the flashback. Though she also looked identical, so its hard to tell how much time has passed.

Anyway, I really like these Mayu/Yuzu focused episodes, they are always surprisingly heartfelt.

[TheGreenMan]

Wow...a serious episode with a little backstory.

Does Yuzu have an onee-chan? Who is that girl in the picture standing next to her?

[something]

Episode 5:

- blah blah bl-BIKINI YUZU!! YAY! Gimmie Yoshino too!
- ...Nooo, it's raining. ;_;
- Shamo!
- Yukina!

- GODDAMNIT! Yeah let's ave a bathing scene but spend the whole time with Gonta and the two dudes. FAIL EPISODE.
- Yuzu. As dangerous at table tennis as I'd have expected.
- Typhoon god?
- Delicious Yuzu eyecatch.

- I love how Yoshino wears her yukata.
- But damnit, what were they thinking? We get a beach episode and it's like 60% Gonta.

- Hah, Mayu saves the day.
- And gets us swimsuits! Damn Yukina is stacked. But it's over so soon.

[FUNiOP]

Ironically, this episode almost put me to sleep. Ghost story episode. One of them thinks ghost stories are the scariest things in the world, even when they're not actually scary at all. Most of them don't turn out to be scary at all. The last one seems like it's going to happen as it's being told. All very predictable stuff here. Could be worse.

[strangefour]

-Matsuri~
-Gods drink Ramune. Nice product placement.
-Poverty shows up late so she doesn't have to do any work.
-Sleepover! I doubt anyone will sleep in the nude... Well Gonta will probably try to.
-Serious Gonta is serious.
-Fall off. Spill. Heh.
-Mayu is an existential horror.
-Nam Pla ramen! Boss can't hold down any jobs can he?
-Mangaka has gone all Golgo 13 to win at the shooting gallery.
-Heh new Ending. Reminds me of playing Taiko Drum Master.

Weakest episode so far. Gonta's mom is hot. But otherwise it's just some ghost stories that are even worse ghost stories than are usually told in anime.

[Suwako Moriya]

The lack of swimsuit scenes in this episode depresses me. In fact, we need an alternate version that also let's see the girls in the bath more.

[Suwako Moriya]

Nice to get more focus on Yuzu and Mayu's relationship. I also like the fact the "villain" ended up coming to terms with them. Flashbacks are fun.

[Fencedude]

Gonta, you really are incredibly annoying. But damn your mom is hot.

Terrified Yoshino was adorable.

Also, I'd like them to spend a bit more time on Sasana and Meiko.

[Fencedude]

Seriously show, Gonta is not funny. Please cut it out.

Anyway, stuff.

[strangefour]

-Dice. Cup. D cups!
-You can have all the money! (So that's why Yuzu is so poor.) But you can't have the gamez!
-Or maybe Yuzu's shrine only collects 1 yen coins. Shizuha is such a kindly silver fox.
-NAM-PLA RAMEN!
-You fools. You are enacting a live action version of an insane japanese commercial. Leaving you blind to the goddess of poverty right behind you!
-Miser AaMaaaaZoooooon (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4so9swD1WU)!
-Protect the game memory Mayu-sama!
-Gambling has a deep connection to divinity. *nods*

-Ooh cloudy sake.
-Konozama (http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/konozama). Heh.
-Mayu Gundam (http://gundam.wikia.com/wiki/File:Box_Gundam.png)!
-Cheating without cheating...
-Poor Yuzu.

We've had more than enough Gonta in the last few episodes. Did we really need more of him so soon? Can't he get shipped off to the moon for like six episodes? His mom is one of my favorite character types though. The drunken lusty lush in a snipping kimono.

[something]

Episode 6:

Awww... really cute episode. All Mayu and Yuzu but like the dream one, it's quiet well done. Very cute. Katou was pretty reasonable for a burglar and a con, I guess. >_>

Also, before the presence of gods in society didn't seem to surprise anyone, but Mayu here was considered an anomaly. Though not enough of one to get worked up over. :sd:

[something]

Does Yuzu have an onee-chan? Who is that girl in the picture standing next to her?
Wouldn't that be her mother?

[Fencedude]

Does Yuzu have an onee-chan? Who is that girl in the picture standing next to her?
Wouldn't that be her mother?

Thats certainly what I assumed.

[EmperorBrandon]

-Konozama (http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/konozama). Heh.


Oh, I was wondering what that was referencing. Hah, amusing.

[strangefour]

-Rain. Lots of it. Raining here too. Rain earlier in the week flooded out some local towns. Hmm. I blame tsunami god.
-I miss hydrangeas.
-Yuzu's only customer returns!
-The real secret of the reddest reds in ancient pottery is human blood.

-Another flashback episode. Oh well been curious how Mayu really got here.
-Mayu's mom is scarier than a ghost story.
-AHAHAHA! Yoshino makes the cutest scared noises.
-Sakamoto? Where did your scarf go?
-G-g-g-ghost cat!

-Kotetsu. :sniffle:
-Hehe. Desperate god sales pitch.
-Aww a sad god and a sad girl sharing an umbrella. Much like an old Danboo picture (http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/892736/). (SFW image NSFW site)
-Yuzu's wish is to find her old cat Kotetsu... :cry:
-Final reunion. Much crying ensues.

-Weather cleared up time to play more of Gonta's game.

Recently losing a cat made this episode extra emotional for me. *sniffle* Damn good episode. Mayu was guilted into staying with Yuzu by a ghost cat is the best thing she ever did.

[FUNiOP]

For some reason I'm still watching this. This episode was actually a little better, though, and it looks like it may staying on this slightly higher note for the rest of it, so I guess I'll stick with it until the end. I guess at this point I probably would have anyway, even though I should have dropped it long ago.

[strangefour]

-Meanwhile on the moon; the cat gods have a demonic pikachu infestation.
-Mayu is no longer banished to earth. Mayu smells a trap. Earth is so much better anyway.
-Mayu's shrine is a status symbol.
-So much cranial trama this episode. I fear Mayu will develope a new boring personality.
-Sounds like Death of Rats (http://wiki.lspace.org/wiki/Death_of_Rats) has a large extended family.
-Mayu has leveled up (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v621/strangefour/Mayu-Level.png)!

-Aww Amane used to be an abused alley cat. :(
-Wait. Mayu just wanted to run off to the moon and now it's late evening and they are planning to go to the moon tomorrow while cooking sweet potatoes? Did we skip over a scene while Amane was daydreaming?
-It's strange not seeing Amaterasu as a dog. With fleas.
-Meiko brought munchkins from Dunkin Donuts! err wait no. That is a munchkin box. But those are not munchkins. What the hell are those "sweets"?
-Hehehe. I was just thinking we haven't seen Boss and his sidekick in a while. Nam Pla!
-To summon her you have but to speak her name. Hello Shamo!
-Holy shit it is Death of Rats.

Suddenly plot! Sorta. Classic anime misunderstanding a half heard conversation. But Amane seems nice and looks like the gods will finally get to go all Touhou on some demons next episode.

[nakimushi]

-Meiko brought munchkins from Dunkin Donuts! err wait no. That is a munchkin box. But those are not munchkins. What the hell are those "sweets"?


Ha, I guess you've never seen a Mont Blanc (http://cannelle-vanille.blogspot.com/2008/11/montblanc-and-first-chestnuts-of-season.html) before? :) It is obviously originally a French pastry, but this post is right in saying that it is also big in Japan (http://planjapan.wordpress.com/2011/04/26/mont-blanc-most-popular-cake-in-japan/).

[FUNiOP]

This episode was actually pretty good. There were plenty of amusing moments, and it left me actually wondering what would happen next, and how they would resolve this. Unfortunately, there were also plenty of bad moments as usual. Of course they had to give some time to Gonta so he could be unfunny and ruin the episode a little.

[strangefour]

-Gamegear was always a perfect fit in my hands. But it's gigantic in Mayu's tiny paws.
-It's weird to pray to your neighbors.
-Mayu, leader of the alleycat alliance. *snap*

-Mayu's future waifus fight too much.
-Bad Kuroe. Tricking Mayu into a prison. Is that why her waifus are there? is this going to become a women behind bars episode?
-Thank you Shamo for arriving and stopping Gonto's stupid story. And you brought a Dreamcast. Shamo is the best god!
-A marriage meeting! Of course.

Mayu must be rescued so that she can play games on the Dreamcast. There is only one man fit for this mission (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5xqiapi_oY&). I guess a pack of demigod girls will do in a pinch.

[FUNiOP]

Well that's all for this show. Not one I'm going to miss or remember too much, and this episode didn't change that any. It was just another mediocre episode like most of the series, other than an episode or two that turned out to be surprisingly good.

[strangefour]

-A catgirl and a witch attacking a temple? Sounds like is bullet curtain action time!
-Mayu has long hair? She's beautiful!?
-Mayu's mom! Yay magical blasting battle time! ... or a quick retreat.
-Yoshino is useless. But cutely so.
-The rescue party has be flung to Hueco Mundo.
-Shamo is the last to arrive to the party in memory of Mayu.
-Surprise tsundere Amane.
-Lord Tsukuyomi's kind of an asshole.
-Or not...
-Mayu's back. Time for omelette rice! Wait Yuzu, come back. Are you going to make food? Mayu's very hungry.
-Party on!
-Manga pinchy!

I kind of wish there had been a bit of a Touhou like fight in this episode at least. But this is a very laid back kind of show. They could have done more with the gods hanging out in a normal town setting, but this show was still fun. Definitely enjoyable. I'm gonna miss Mayu & Shamo.

[Fencedude]

Oh yeah, this show.

Anyway, damn, the Mayu/Yuzu episodes are the best. We've finally made our way back to the beginning of the show, and found out how they met.

Slightly spoiled in that Koutetsu was Katsu Anri, who's voice makes me want to punch his characters in the face (I blame this mostly on Tsuchimikado)

[Fencedude]

What is this plot shaped object that has shown up in Nekogami?

Anyway, Amane's incredibly Itou Kanae. Almost hilariously so. I like her claws, and interesting that she was once a real cat.

And Mayu again demonstrates that she's not just a lazy bum, and can be quite perceptive and sage, when she so desires.

BTW. Shamo!

[something]

Episode 7:

- Festival time. You know who Meiko and Sasana remind me of? Sakurako and Himawari from Yuru Yuri.
- Yoshino! Shamo!
- Too much Gonta early on. But his mom is hot.

Felt uneventful even by this show's standards, but it was an alright episode. Mayu needs to hurry up and threesome with Sasana and Meiko.

[Fencedude]

-Thank you Shamo for arriving and stopping Gonto's stupid story. And you brought a Dreamcast. Shamo is the best god!

Never thought I'd be happy to see a Dreamcast.

At any rate, this plot like substance continues to exist, and its still somewhat confusing to have in this show.

[Fencedude]

Goddamn. The bit with Sasana and Meiko after they got flung out of Mayu's house was amazing. Really heartfelt.

Anyway, life goes on, and we all know that Mayu's real wife is Yuzu.

[sickVisionz]

Was SEGA a part of the production committee on this series? I spotted...
- a Genesis (the same og model I had as a kid)
- a Game Gear
- a Saturn
- possibly a Nomad
- and a Dreamcast

Did anyone catch a SEGA CD or 32X?
