This is one of rare example when comedy makers put their heart in the show. At glance, I thought this show would fall apart because this low budget types of this genre usually falls flat. The poster also does a very good job of deception, since this show is not an epic battle show at all. I like the way its producer and scriptwriter (as well as the director) deliver the random jokes. This show is full of nonsense jokes and absurdity. However, unlike other hate-it-or-love-it, absurd shows like Jikou Keisatsu (also boasts the same vibe, but I still like both, though), you do not have to know Japanese puns to enjoy the jokes. Acting-wise, the actors only needed to rely on their comedic timing, and they nailed it. As a matter of fact, it takes a lot of improvisation to do Hotoke roles, as he seems forget his lines almost every time he's on screen. Funnily, it still generates unique sense of comedy. I'm giving 10 not because of its technical merit, it's for the entertainment value.
