In the back of my mind, I couldn’t help but interpret it as a bunch of nonsense to make pirates seem more courageous than one would believe, but given that the series is trying to redefine exactly what a “pirate” is, it wasn’t too hard to just go with the flow. I found myself stricken enough by their parent/child moment that I was willing to overlook the context of it, especially when it came to Ririka’s seemingly honorable explanation of what it means to be a pirate.

While things do look like they’re “drifting” the mini skirt way, for now we’ve been treated to a somewhat uneventful yet entertaining look at how Marika comes to terms with inheriting Bentenmaru and how her “unique” friendship with Kuroneko Chiaki develops.īetween these two sub-developments, Marika’s relationship with her mother Ririka is the more interesting one, as it manages to put a nice sentimental spin on something as unusual as learning how to fire a deadly beam gun. Instead, it’s used its title - at least for initially - as a bit of a misnomer and provided something quite different than was advertised. Unlike a series that tries to get out the door on a strong note and grab as many potential viewers as possible, Mouretsu hasn’t even flaunted its “bodacious” mini skirt pirates yet in an attempt to do so. Mouretsu Pirates is still very well in the worldbuilding process, taking things slowly and not rushing Marika into the captaincy role that we all know she’ll eventually take on, and I continue to find myself swept up in its mellow pacing - in a good way.
