Maybe it's just started being more fun to make up names for her. Toyota Princess, Tomahawk Princess...
How about Topless Princess. Now THAT would make the show more interesting.
As for the "reverse harem" going on here... it's more like Snow White and her pathetic, useless, unusually tall and handsome dwarves. I would actually love to see some romance from this harem show. But I haven a feeling that's certainly not going to happen considering only one has even taken an interest in the milk jugs on the teacher and that happened so long ago that it feels like it was in another universe.

Episode 10
In this episode... the villains' leader continues punishing her underlings for misbehaving. She attributes their antsy nature to the artifacts. She's gravely mistaken. They are acting on their own because she's completely stalled what little plot this show had and has done so for no apparent reason. The Takoyaki Princess and her Merry Men continue dawdling. They're now divided into three groups: research, shrine patrol, and Takoyaki Protection Duty. Weren't these their roles from the get-go? Didn't they already try dividing themselves into groups. The Takoyaki Princess seems completely uninterested in what Government Man had to say last episode. Actually, it's like he never mentioned that he knew how she can become a full fledged Takoyaki Princess.
I have a hard time feeling anything about any of these characters or the story. Please, someone, just make it end.
Even seeing all of the guys shirtless (finally) wasn't that interesting. But watching the Hand Maid close the door on them was, by far, the best part of this whole show - aside from the intro which has beautiful animation and music.
Still painfully boring. You'd think that it would be substantially more interesting now that we're only a few episodes away from the ending.

I picked up on that, too, B-B:
Government Man: "Yeah, so basically I know how you can become the Toonami Princess (you know, the answer to the question you've been feverishly trying to research without any success) thus powering up your friends and saving world."
Our heroes: *complete indifference*
That's story-telling, folks!

Lolz - Toonami Princess~! In her dreams, maybe.
I honestly don't know what they were thinking when they made this freaking show. And, in the comments on Crunchyroll, there are a ton of screaming fan girls saying it's the best show EVAR!!!! I read one comment that said something to the extent of the following:
"I haven't watched anything since InuYasha and this is the best show since then!"
ugh.
Shoot me now.

When you'd rather go and do the dishes instead of watch this, you know something's up. Yet still, I keep watching to see if something will happen. At least Hakuoki had a vaguely interesting plot and actual blood and people dying and stuff
Inuyasha wasn't that bad I'd say this is much worse than it. That comment is pretty sad though...

I think so. Not sure why I'm still watching, except that it requires zero thought, so it's kind of like listening to the radio in the background, except with pretty pictures.
I'm still trying to figure out the purpose of the most recent pretty boy they added, other than filling the broody bad boy niche the redhead has been trying to vacate. Actually, "still trying" suggests more effort than I'm expending.
The little 4th wall breakers at the end creep me out no end.
This should either have been 6 episodes or 5 minute episodes, since that's all the plot they work through each time, once they're done repeating obvious things and angsting over them.
And...the logo of the Tamiami princess seems to be a Bloomin' Onion. oO

Kinda seems that way. Although, I gotta give the peeps behind this show credit; they manage to have kept a number of us who have big problems with it to keep watching. I don't know how they have managed to pull that trick off - subliminal messages???

The comments on Crunchyroll are comments I mostly discount. Everyone loves every show. I think they're all zombies that make comments.
The show isn't overtly stupid, like, say, The Dark Rabbit Has Seven Lives. Now, that show, I couldn't watch after a few episodes. It drove me away.
This one is just annoying in lots of little ways but we are all wondering...what is the Toonami Princess and will she ever become one and will she seriously kick butt when she does and also why is there a little girl leading a pack of rabid mages and what's up with the smallest harem-boy and why does he keep running off secretly and is he meeting with the evil people or just something else and why do I care about the white haired harem guy who never does anything but sleep oh I don't really care about him.

Episode 11
So, we still have no clue what's going on with the villains but I really appreciate them clarifying that oni = demon in Japanese. Thanks.
Government man is back. But... still no mention of how she can become the Tsundere Princess even though that was mentioned, what? Two episodes ago. Nice plot hole there.
Some more fan service, albeit very little.
And then Takuma was the demon . Oh really? Some plot twist you've got there. I love how he's had this evil lurking within him since he was a young child and is just now putting two and two together. Way to go. Way to go. Never thought to mention that to anyone? Really? That seems like something that would definitely be on the "Become A Guardian of the Takoyaki Princess" Job Application. You know, something along the lines of:
1) Name:
2) Address:
3) Do you have special powers?
4) Do you sense evil lurking inside of you? If so, please discontinue this application process.
This show. When do I get to see all the cool stuff in the intro? Or more half naked dudes/chicks? For real!
Isn't about time for someone to do... I dunno... something?

It sounded like he did. "I was told it would get stronger."
But what's more important is that no one seemed to notice that all the crucial stuff was redacted! Who did that? Do they care who did it, or even that it was done? Hell, no, not when there's some angstin' to be done!
