http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Tari-Tari-Complete-Collection-Blu-ray/109322/ $50 is a bit more than im comfortable with for 12 episodes but this is still wonderful and I'm very excited.
i liked sawa and wakana the most :v though i wish they had a bit more focus on wein, he had a pretty interesting story.
Konatsu was my favorite. She's just too much fun. Though I think Sawa and Wakana are stronger characters, particularly Wakana. Which is not to say that Konatsu's a weak character though, she's not. I totally agree and given what the character represented he needed to be given more time than he was. I got the sense that they had more planned for him but ran out of time. That was the biggest shortcoming of the show imo.
I liked Konatsu in the beginning, but she got kind of annoying after a while tbh. I liked her energy though, it was just a bit too much after a while. And yeah, it seemed like it was the main problem with the anime as a whole was how little 3 of the 5 characters were fleshed out. Which is why it's easy to like Sawa and Wakana compared to the others, just because we got to see more sides to them.
I mean I think all of the characters were handled wonderfully except for Wein. I think they understood which characters needed the most time and wrote appropriately. Sawa and Wakana were the two who had major arcs to go through so more time was given to them.
Still, I didn't understand why badminton was there really. He was like, left out entirely. idk, it was well done as a story and they showed what they needed to for the story, but i just would've liked more time to understand and connect with all the characters.
