I didn't particularly like it; too much didn't happen, too little decent comic relief and just seemed like more catering to moe/loli fans.

Get it?
Catering?
Hahahaa....yeah...

I'll watch a little more before I form any realy opinion and I'm sure fans of this kind of anime are happy with it, but this kind has never been my cup of tea.

Cup of tea?
Restaurant?
Get it?
OH I'M ON FIRE TODAY!!!

This was great! I will definitely follow this show when it comes out. I liked the chemistry between the characters, and the assistant manager was awesome!! (I can see this getting a massive following, hell I think this anime so far is more deserving of it then K-On!)

I'm sorry...what's so quirky about the show? Jun Fukuyama playing a perv (Akikan)? A loli with boobs (Asu no Yoichi)? The voice actors' ability to keep the stale dialogue and situations fresh will be what makes or breaks this show. There really isn't much more to say.

But I will agree with Uniju's thoughts of the pervasiveness of sexism in the entertainment industry, and how it's annoying to see it so willfully exploited in dinky-donk shows like this for laughs. But then it's the same for racism, nationalism, ethnocentrism, heteronormativity, etc. It's not really funny unless the joke is on the perpetrator.

I do agree with you on this one but then again many animes recycle things from previous ones is what I noticed....however let's see what makes this one different....perhaps the setting itself will?

Not bad, the show wouldn't be any fun or much of an anime if it wasn't populated by freaks and social morons. I'll bite & give it a few more episodes.

I honestly was hoping this was going to be a good series. This first episode kind of extinguished that hope.

I won't say that it was bad. However, I agree with those who described it as "generic" or "average". It was cute and there wasn't a point where I was falling asleep, but it hardly garnered any laughs from me and I wasn't really into the characters. So far, every character seems to have only one defining trait - Taneshima is short, Souta is a minicon, Inami is an androphobe, etc. I really, really hope there is more to them that this and it doesn't end up being the same jokes used over and over again.

From the title itself, it focus mainly on work setting. Very interesting, esp. the cast. An anime for chillaxing, just seeing how it goes on being employed. The art and stuffs is okay, this should be promising

I guess I'm in the minority.
I thought it was pretty bad.

Poplar is annoying as hell already.
Hooray for otaku pandering with annoying lolis.

And the main guy is pretty dull.
The rest of the cast was kind of interesting but I can't really picture them acting past their cardboard personalities/quirks. The humor was pretty dry too. I guess it just rubbed me the wrong way.

I'll give it one more episode.

It was definitely better than I expected. (I expected it to be in the bottom 5 this season)

It had some decent humour, although all humour seemed to be to be a little too focused on the main guys smart ass remarks... It also lacked flow IMO.

It could turn out good, or it could turn out to be way to repetitive...

Mmm... yeah...

For some reason, I can just smell the repetativness /lol did I write it right Dx/
Yeah, ther were some nice jokes here and there and I giggled but nothing really special. That tiny little thing is annoying me for some reason. I'm a "tiny senpai" too, but this is just ridiculous Dx I also can't stand the art, aside from the manager and that blond guy, they're cool.

To whoeevr said Working!! > K-ON!

ouch. You can't be serious.

If this is more than 13 episodes, I'm gonna shoot myself. Too friggin much moe, and I like moe Dx The manager cracks me up but I doubt that if they repeat it all the way, I'm gonna enjoy it as much.

enjoyed this, if its a 24ish ep series I could live with this but anything more I'd die.

If this were to be within the 12 ep range I'd drop this.

Eh, I'll definitely watch it, but I can't say if I'll like it just yet. Moe usually can't go wrong if they don't overdo it, so we'll see...

There are so many more awesome mangas out there that just awaits an anime adaption.. So why this one? ^^;

i actually thoroughly enjoyed this episode, which is rare for slice of life with me. it was fun to watch, and i'm definitely looking forward to new episodes.

also... poplar.... is fucking adorable. and the girl (whose name eludes me right now) with the violent fear of men... i'm looking forward to seeing more of her. she promises to be an interesting character.
