For this week’s call of “Endings”, I want to share the Ending theme of a show I haven’t actually watched. But I love the high-tempo song “Nippon Egao Hyakkei” by Momoiro Clover Z and now that I think about it, it was also my first touchpoint ever with Rakugo (that was way before Rakugo Shinjuu and Akane-Banashi).

I guess y’all are familiar with Moon Pride by Momoiro Clover Z, but my favorite song by them is “Nippon Egao Hyakkei”, ending to the anime Joshiraku which I have never even watched. It just has such a fun energy.

Caught up with the #manga #Akane-banashi!

It's part of what is apparently a subgenre of manga based around
#rakugo, following the likes of Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu, Joshiraku, and Uchi no Shishou wa Shippo ga nai. However whereas those are respectively focused on drama, comedy, and... tanuki-fox yuri...? Akane-banashi is instead very much focused on rakugo itself mixed with a very #shounen bent. (It is, indeed, in Weekly Shounen Jump.)

It has what I feel is a fairly rough start, blazing through sections in one chapter that feel like they should have been three, but I feel like now it's hit a nice pace. Finally, I'll say I
love all the character designs---and there are a lot of them!

You know what. I'm finally going to read #joshiraku. I enjoyed the anime so much so I know I'll enjoy the manga.
It hadn't occurred to me when I first watched it, but the 3rd episode of #Joshiraku is very gender essentialist?
Episode 2 of #Joshiraku is also very good.
Hidive is streaming #Joshiraku! It's one of my favorite underappreciated #comedy #anime. The first episode is out now, with a new episode releasing each Monday. I'd love it if more people got a laugh from this show. You don't really need to know anything about rakugo for this, but if you want to learn more, Showa Genroku Rakugo Shinju is an amazing historical drama about it. The latter is on Crunchyroll. https://www.hidive.com/tv/joshiraku
