My Master Has No Tail

Uchi no Shishou wa Shippo ga Nai, or My Master Has No Tail, is one of the anime I have been following this season. And I have been loving it for 3 reasons. 1 - Mameda the Tanuki. Growing up constantly belittled by other Tanuki on her home island for working on her transformation she strived to head out to the main land and trick humans just as he father had done before her. However she is living at a changing of times in Japan’s history. Westernization and industrialization has begun, and the people do not fall for her tricks. Luckily she comes across a mysterious woman and watches her perform rakugo, a type of tradition theater/storytelling. The woman, Bunko Daikokutei, enthralls our little troublemaker and after the performer ends up saving her, Mameda makes it her goal to perform rakugo, too. And thus the journey of a goofy but sincerly determined tanuki begins. 2 - Rakugo. An old style of performance done with 1 performer (and on occasion a back up instrument or 2). Their only physical tools are a wooden block and wooden fan, both to keep the pace of the story and the audience’s attention. Beyond that it is one person on their knees performing multiple roles through the use of slight body movement and changes in tone. Tough, but getting the wanted reaction out of a crowd is a great reward. 3 - Theater. I have a bit of history with theater, so getting to learn about an old style from another country is always a treat. There have even been a few moments during my watching where my reaction is “THIS! This is what it means to be a part of theater.” After all, while a rakugo is performed by one, that one is still supported by the rest of the people on the team. Tea, pillows, accompaniment, ushers, everyone is on the same team and the shared goal is “give the audience a great experience”. So, if you like tanuki shenanigans, performing arts, or even a bit of history, then I invite you into the theater and hope you enjoy the performance. EDIT; also stick around after the credits for the shorts after each episode where Mameda explains more about the story performed in each episode.

My Master Has No Tail Volume 8 Chapter 35 Spoilers

The main character in this manga is a female tanuki named Mameda who is a Rakugoka in Osaka, Japan and the story takes place in the early 20th century in the Taisho Era.

Bunko was shocked that Shojotei Sansho could memorize Mameda's Rakugo Poem about the underworld and thought that it would be difficult for Mameda to win against her; therefore, she agreed to Yotsuya Sakutaro's marriage proposal and left a poem behind for Mameda to read. It is the same poem that Kuzunoha from Japanese Folklore left behind after her identity as a fox was discovered. Bunko is also a fox disguised as a human; so, is Bunko Kuzunoha, could she related to Kuzunoha, or she just copy Kuzunoha poem to give a hint to Mameda?

The other day I finished Mameda no Bakeru. I enjoyed my time with it.

It isn’t mind-blowingly amazing but it also doesn’t do anything awful either. I was surprised with how many stages were in the game. When I didn’t know how many there were, I kept feeling the game was going to end a bit sooner than it actually did. You certainly do get a lot of gameplay out of it though. It's at it's best when seeking out all the goodies in each stage. The hidden tanukis in particular were pretty well hidden since they’re disguised as stage objects and decorations. The collectibles get you to really see the entirety of each stage.

The graphics and characters are all nicely done; colorful and reads well even in handheld mode. Bakeru is expressive like when he’s about to fall off a ledge or gets burnt on something really hot. I also enjoyed the cute and silly enemies, although their variety wore thin before the game ended.

The controls did the job and felt Mario-like especially with how you can do a sideways somersault in much the same way as he. They seemed to have spent time making Bakeru move nicely. I had read from someone else that you should buy the run speed up candy from the shops because Bakeru’s default walk speed is a bit slow, like that of Blinx the Time Sweeper. Very late into the game I realized you can parry projectiles back at enemies. The game isn’t punishingly hard at all but knowing that might’ve made taking out the more guard-heavy enemies faster.

The henge powers were okay but I only really used the fishing rod and gun ones to dispatch hordes of enemies much faster. It’s fun to go ham on everything like this but it also made combat very trivial. I wish there could have been just a bit more uses for them all. OH, and it has some giant robot battling. Always fun to watch.

I would like to see more games with these characters but I don't know how well the game has been doing since it launched. :C

Been playing Mameda Bakeru since I’ve been looking forward to it for a while and I’m having a pretty good time all things considered! I discovered a creechure called an Unchiku and I do indeed adore them

They also tell you neat little facts! I did actually learn some things too. Apparently, June 1st is Milk Day, October 1st is Coffee day, and in the middle of them both, August 1st, is Café au Lait day. Definitely not something I’d think about often, but it’s always neat to learn something about culture.
