Ridiculous..ly good?! — First Impressions: Taiso Samurai!
Hello and welcome back to First Impression Friday (totally did not just make that up right now)! It’s like I just came at you with a first impression…
Taiso Samurai – 04
「ザムライ娘。」 (Zamurai Musume.) "Samurai Daughter." Being the daughter of someone in the public limelight doesn't seem easy. Especially when said person has been the focus of negative press.
Taiso Samurai – 07
「合宿ザムライ」 (Gasshuku Zamurai) "Training Camp Samurai" Who could have guessed that Leo wasn't actually a ninja this whole time?
Taiso Samurai – 02
「どん底ザムライ」 (Donzoko Zamurai) "Rock-Bottom Samurai" In MAPPA we trust.
