Japanator – First Impression: Joshiraku
Japanator: "Just like Chihayafuru before it, Joshiraku focuses on something new to most foreigners. Basing its roots in mimicking a certain style of Japanese storytelling called rakugo, this show is already on a good start with its strong aim in overturning the slice-of-life genre. Taking the deadpan humor that its source material is notorious for and incorporating it into the genre creates something unique that really is different this season."
