Tanken Driland 2


While I had warmed to the first episode of Driland, this second one left a little wanting. Princess and Wellons meet up with a new member of their party, Pollons. A bumbling coward, Pollons has always wanted to be a hero. When a fairy village begs them for help, Pollons jumps at the chance, but will he and his new friends be able to deliver.

As you can imagine, what follows is cutesy outtakes and a lot of moralistic rah-rahing. I was a little disappointed. I still think this will turn out to be a cute and endearing little romp. But I can watch that later.
