From November 5, 2007 through February 12, 2008, the Writers Guild of America was on strike. What most people don’t know is that the writers were on strike in Japan too.

Warning: This show has the potential to be terrible. Don’t take this review as seriously as you normally take my objective, unbiased reviews. Warning #2: This show has boobs bouncing all over the place. If you hate boobs, Kamen no Maid Guy definitely isn’t the show for you. I’m ready to declare this the sleeper […]
