Anime Sightings Old and New - Sumomomo

[wc2bmalin]

Two DID scenes spotted in a TV series called Sumomomo Momomo, a martial-arts comedy. Both scenes were brief and not very memorable. Nevertheless I'm reporting them now with the idea that it might spare someone the effort of checking should a question arise in the future.

One occurs in episode #12: a ninja girl has her arms tied behind with wire. The other occurs somewhat earlier - unfortunately I've forgotten the specific episode number (getting old really sucks); in it a girl is completely cocooned with rope in an inverted suspension. On the other hand Sumomomo is full of GID scenes, particularly in the first half.

To the best of my knowledge Sumomomo has not been licensed in the US and is unavailable on physical media or from streaming video, but it has been fansubbed.

It seems that the cocooned suspension was early in episode 12.

Maybe it's the arms behind with wire is the one where you forgot the episode number?

I just reviewed episode #12, and you're absolutely right. Guided by the episode summaries in the Sumomomo Wikipedia entry I found the ninja girl scene in the latter half of episode #15. I must have had yet another "senior moment" to get this so confused (sigh).
