A Certain Magical Index-tan #01 — Better Than a Tan Index

January 23rd, 2009

 

JCStaff always has the best DVD bonuses.

Impressions:

In the grand tradition of Shana-tan comes Index-tan, another miniature version of the titular heroine reenacting scenes from the show for the DVD release. It was the usual JCStaff DVD silliness. Lots of making fun of their own cliches as well as shout outs to their other series, including a sequence where Index tries to copy Shaku*** no Shana, as well as the obvious ToraDora reference. I especially enjoyed the porn music kicking in when Touma stuck his finger inside Index’s mouth. It’s also no surprise to me that Stiyl has taken over Yoshida’s role as the stalker. Sadly though, very little Mikoto, except as a the interstitials where she just gave various onomatopoeias against the normal "biri biri." I’m just impressed that MPlayer managed to cap the exact same frame of the electric jolt three times.

PS, leaving country in 20 minutes. Try not to wreck it while I’m gone. Updates will likely be a bit delayed until Mondayish.

    LOL JCStaff.

  • Anonyman says:

    That’s odd, I never noticed Index had some kind of scar or tattoo over her left eye before. Is that canon, or something Index-tan-only?

  • jeffng9 says:

    i would say only on index-tan

    MPlayer is that awesome.

  • There certainly seems to have been a lot of reuse, doesn’t there?

    (By the way, I sent you an email to your webmaster account.)

  • Keiri says:

    Agree. Unlike Shana-tan, it blatantly seemed as though they just recycled the animation and put in new sound effects. A few even looked as though they had been “magic wand” and blended into new backgrounds. Nonetheless, I’d still give J.C.Staff credit for making me laugh. d(^^ )

    Finally caught on to you, huh.

  • […] not too much – I did notice a Mikan box in the loli-teachers room in the Index-tan caps over at Tenka Seiha the other […]
