The Lucky Star saga continues in very much the same fashion, so if you’ve read my review on volume two or any of the other reviewers then simply go read those and all that applies here. There, I’m done…

…Were it so easy. Actually, the third DVD is mostly more of the same which isn’t necessarily a bad thing if you loved the first two discs. If you’re new to Lucky Star, then you could simply jump into any one of the first three discs and still get the basic idea (though, it is best to start with the first DVD).

There are a couple stand out moments. Most memorable in my mind is the introduction of the employees of the local manga shop Animate. Over the top would be the simplest way of describing these stereotypical action anime characters, as explosions and special effect illuminate the screen in there attempts (and failure) to sell the heroine Konota all that they have to offer. While it’s somewhat embarrassing to watch it’s also very amusing, like watching your friend do karaoke while drunk.

Next up is what our girl Konota has been looking forward to this whole time, the comic convention Comiket! While I’ve only been to a few cons myself and none of them as massive as say Comicon (or the real life Comiket), I was able to relate to the crowd and sheer hysteria that’s usually present at conventions of this nature. And once again, the eccentric Animate gang returns with there over exaggerated brand of humor, and if you happen to know the career history of the voice actors portraying these characters it’s exceptionally hilarious.

That’s something else I’d like to expand on; the casting for the english voice over. As mentioned in my other review, many of the jokes make reference to other animes but some of them actually refer to the voice actors previous work. In the english translation they made sure to stay true to this. For example Konota is voiced by Aya Hirano in the original Japanese, who also voices Haruhi Suzumiya in the anime The Meloncaly of Haruhi Suzumiya (another recommended anime, especially if you love Lucky Star cause they reference it a lot). In the english dub Bandai made sure to cast Wendee Lee as the voice of Konota, who also dubbed the before mentioned Haruhi. It’s the finer details like this that really show that the creators (and the American licenser) truly care for there work. Ok, that’s enough of that (sorry, I’m a voice over nerd).

One more detail that stands out is the foreshadowing of characters that will be introduced in later episodes (were you wondering who all those other girls were in the intro song?). As much as I adore the main cast, it’s once these new arrivals hit the seine that Lucky Star goes from a simple shooting star to a blazing comet.

So, to reiterate what’s already been iterated, if you enjoyed the first two chances are you’ll find just as much to enjoy the third time. If you haven’t heard of Lucky Star then read some reviews or hop on wikipedia and see if it’ll fit your fancy. If you’re new to anime all together you might get some laughs, but you may be better starting off elsewhere (might I suggest Ah! My Goddess or Cowboy Bebop).
