best of 2009: #4

#4: Maria+Holic

“Dear mother in heaven…”

Also wins for 2009:

  • Best Post
  • Best Genderbender
  • Best Meido Guitar
  • Best Pajamas
  • Best Odd Couple Pairing
  • Best Dorm Manager

The blog好き effect: when a show gets better because of this blog’s discerning audience. They can see past the rough exterior of these shows and peer into the gem underneath. It’s similar to how a player fits into a system in football, much like how Wes Welker was a mediocre receiver until he made it into the Patriot’s system. Past examples of the blog好き effect include Muteki Kanban Musume, Code Geass, and Kamen on Meido Guy. And that’s definitely the case for Maria+Holic.

So this is a victory for you. Thanks to my awesome and awesomely broken readers for being different than every other anime blog and actually being able to have some fun and have some personality. Yep, you are my readers, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

  1. Best Meido ever?

  2. I though Maria was still best Meido ever.

  3. And I approve of the red color for the links over the previous white of light colored background…much improved.

  4. Not best meido: best Meido GUITAR. And best insult-hurling meido, who makes even disrespect look cute (see the ‘you’re so funny, Kanako-sama’ episode).

  5. Matsurika tongue is formidable, but as far as meidoing goes she doesn’t compare to Maria, the Hanaukyo Maids, or jasonko in a frilly apron Kogarashi. Mariya on the other hand… Best. Trap. Ever.

  6. Heh I watched this show only because of this blog. Reading about it made it sound too lulz good for me to resist. Here’s to traps and meido!

  7. Fact: Meido was also Chiri in Zetsubou-shita.

  8. And yet I still couldn’t watch past ep. 4 due to the lack of funny. Even with blogsuki assisting.
