Another reason Mariko WINS

[masahi]

I just watched Action! for the first time and nearly ended up crying with laughter. Ayaka and Mariko's characters are stamdard ones for them to started out with: spoiled rich girl and tough, streetwise badboy musician. And then, they body switch! I don't know what was worse, though - Ayaka having it pointed out to her that she now has boobs, or Mariko's character being informed that she also has something new. :D

It also features (in no particular order) android Siennes, Noru as a Rock DJ whose theme tune is 'Bat out of Hell', gratuitous use of the 'Power Rangers' theme tune (I was sure my ears were deceiving me when that slipped in), and an abundance of random Christmas songs. Oh, and Izumo Aya being amazing as usual :)

I love this show. So much magic Christmas crack :D A review will follow, once I watch the 2nd act :)

I must buy this, if only for the "Bat out of Hell" theme and gratuitous use of the Power Rangers theme. Are we talking "Mighty Morphin" or "Turbo" or...?

*glances shiftily around* No, I'm not secretly a PR fangirl as well.^^

I will be adding this to The List, definitely! It sounds like much fun!

Power Rangers-wise, it was just the riff from the original opening. Since it was a 1995 show, I'm assuming it was before all the variations came out ;)
