English Dub Review: Peter Grill and the Philosopher’s Time Super Extra “Peter Grill and the World’s Strongest Little Sister”
Overview
Lucy Grill certainly has a lot of guts. Why she’ll just go berserk if she ever finds out her brother cheated on Luvellia?
Our Take
Peter’s sister Lucy Grill is the last person that Peter doesn’t want to see, and the adorable lil’ sis just had to show up at the worst possible time. Trying to hide his harem away from her is a crazy task, but letting things like underwear and items leave around surely is a red flag towards her, triggering her trauma once again.
Given how most of these “harem” stories, start, I thought it would lead to something borderline incestuous and weird but thankfully that’s not the case here, though it only makes the proceedings feel more contrived and peter more trapped with nobody to somewhat confide with outside of his servant. And knowing how irrational and violent Lucy is capable of being, It’s unclear how far the proceedings will go.
Overall, I enjoyed the comical proceedings, even if some of the horror aspects involved Lucy chasing Peter through the house complete with a reference to “The Shining”. I liked her reunion with Gobuko too, it was sweet but of course, she asked the golden question in a post-credits scene that leaves me wondering how Peter will get himself out of this one…
There's got to be some kind of twist that's going to happen with this. I don't know if they're setting up an April Fool's joke now or what's going on, but it seems too strange that they'd suddenly reverse on doing a fourth and fifth season after the show was already renewed and they were even just talking about working on those seasons like a couple months ago or something. Or maybe the two episodes yet to release will secretly somehow each be like a "season" in themselves?
