Nichijou Volume 6 is one of the weakest books in Keiichi Arawi’s series yet.
Fecchan being overly optimistic about her dropped lolly and her friend’s dropped meat bun was kinda funny in the same way Homer’s flying pig was “still good, still good!” until it wasn’t. Mr Sakamoto gets wound up by the Professor and Nano and Mio flips out after thinking Sasahara has a girlfriend in a tremendously OTT action sequence. The rigged carnival stall was also mildly amusing.
It’s not much though compared to the series’ usual higher standard of wacky comedy. Ms Nakamura’s investigations into Nano continued, Mio dreams her manga won a prize, the wood cubes fantasy is revisited and we get to see the first game of Go/Soccer – all of which was meh.
The image of the hole in the floor of the blimp with the dude hanging across it, during the wood cubes fantasy, was a nightmarish scenario though and drawn so well it still makes me feel tense just thinking about it!
Like Volume 4, the sixth book hits a lull and unfortunately fails to be as funny as other books in the series have been.
