That Papa Show

Papa no Iukoto wo Kikinasai!  Also known as Oh, right, the whole of Wikipedia is blacked out.

A college-aged boy ends up looking after his niece and step-nieces after their parents are lost in a plane crash.  Some genuine moments of comedy and tragedy, but the storytelling is heavy-handed and it strays too close to ick territory for my liking.

Could be worse.  Knowing the Japanese, could be a lot worse.

Two little fishies out of four.  Maybe half a point more if we get to see more of the monorail.  Monorails are good.

1 I dunno, what is the system? If it's ALWEG, I'll take it, but the hanging French shit buys no favours from me. Even the Moscow-style Intamin leaves me cold.

2 Damned if I understood a word of that!

3 Pete, yes, it looks like an Alweg system.

4 Steven, they're talking about types of monorail systems.  Obscure, mega-railfan-level stuff.  Y'know, cool.
