 |
| for one episode. I have fallen in love xD!! LOVING FOR WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT! |
| Ah so glad this series finally more then 5 mins i remember watching that one was kinda funny But this was unexpectedly good! Nyarlko is a pretty funny character and i like her alot ( and not only is she a S shes a SM! no one would enjoy getting stabbed by a fork that much lol)only problem is i feel Marshio is gonna drag this series a bit behind. but i'm all for this Can't wait for red head twin tails next week! |
 |
| This show is so self aware that it hurts. |
| "My tables-meet it is I set it down That one may smile, and smile, and be a villain." |
| Pretty good first episode :) Does anyone know how many episodes is this series going to be? 12? |
 |
| Another good surprise, so many awesome shows this season XD; great first episode, looking forward to what happens next. |
 |
| From all the 'good' comments, I was expecting a bit more. It was slightly entertaining, but that's about it. A few smiles here and there, but to whomever said this was like Seto No Hanayome, let's not exaggerate. I have that show on my favourites, and this show doesn't come close to it. |
    |
| At this rate, it might even become funny one or two iterations later. |
 |
| It was a fun episode. Well, more than I thought it would be. and I sort of heard Toshinou Kyouko on that Kurei girl... no, I'm sure it's the same VA. I wonder why she isn't credited for it. |

| I like moe and humor. Not keen on the fighting tho. I liked that erotic reference when they were in the bathroom. |
| Cute but pretty boring. |

Nachtwandler_21 said: He has the ultimate fork. You must be afraid of him!!! FEAR DAH POWA OF TEH FORK. Haha, it's actually a great comedy series. I'm glad I didn't start watching it expecting it to be serious. Would Nyarko be considered a cliché character? (Just wondering) Anyways, not an anime that will be on my priority list, but will watch when I have time. It's entertaining. I did get a few laughs from it. Nyarko is quirky, but sometimes pretty funny. :D |
| Well, my hopes for a good ol' Cthulhu show have been dashed, but at least there's comedy. Also, please keep in mind that Nyaruko is a member of the Mythos, and therefore not moe at all. It's sort of like that one VN (that I'm trying to avoid) where the MC gets in an accident and his brain registers everything as a grotesque fleshy monstrosity except this one "normal" looking girl who is actually a monster. |
| Dear Math, I'm not a therapist. Solve your own problems. Oh, and Algebra? Stop asking us to find your ex, she's NEVER coming back. |
| as a Kamen Rider Fan~ this episode is a WIN!! nyahaha |
 |
| Asumi Kana and Eri Kitamura's voices are quite distinctive so I recognized them quickly. "Nyarlathotep" a mouthful lol :) Overall the episode was very cheery and enjoyable. Forks should be considered to be dangerous weapons now. OMG pokemon parody! :DD Loving this show already! |

 Rand0mless's PokePet   Kuro the level 76 Umbreon! |
| I don't know if this is entertaining or just retarded. Maybe a bit of both. At least her voice is cute. |
 |
| Not knowing about this prior, I was hoping for a suspenseful anime like Another from the beginning, and then nyaruko opened her mouth. I was like lolwut..... and then op rolled. =_= Not what was I was expecting, but this was an amazing first ep xD Definitely gonna be my go-to brain-dead anime to watch this season xD. Moe Cthulu is moe. 5/5 |
bci110 said: icamehere said: That red head in the preview for next episode probably likes him as well. So far this show is the best show of the season right beside Upotte There's already one scene in the OP that tells you exactly that :P |
| I love the short pokemon reference xD. Also its funny the main character freaks out when she is butt naked ready to jump in the tub with him xD |
  |
| OK, I'll go along with Nyarlahotep as a high-school girl, but does she have to be both hyperactive (overclocked) and high-pitched at the same time? |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
rodac said: OK, I'll go along with Nyarlahotep as a high-school girl, but does she have to be both hyperactive (overclocked) and high-pitched at the same time? Pretty much this. There seems to be a lot of positive response to this show, but I mostly found it painful. It's just very loud and uncreatively random. I'm perfectly fine with a subversion of the Cthulhu mythos that makes it loveable, but all we've got here is a perfectly generic genki girl with a weird name and an excuse for even less development than usual slapped on. There's very few jokes on the origin and just not many jokes period. Not sure I even want to try episode 2, new characters or not. |
| Very interesting. Nyarlko is my type of character, happy go lucky, very energetic. Asumi Kana was a very wise choice, I like her voice it perfectly fits with her character. Looks like she'll be one of my favorite VAs. I won't mind if the plot's not that great as long the characters are very interesting and fun to watch. |
| Hahaha! This is cute. |
| people taking a parody show seriously? guess they couldn't take the drop in sanity points. |
DraconisMarch said: This shameless loli pedo fanserive fest is an affront to all things Lovecraft. Have fun with mindless loli ecchi, perverts. DROPPED. Lolis? Are we watching the same show? OT: Kana Asumi's voice is AMAZING, this show is really enjoyable and funny. Will keep watching. |
 |
| Wow people hating the main character needs to chill. A main character that bothers to fight back and not just go oh im being dragged around and im not going to do anything about it cause im a pussy. Other then that i love the episode, it was kinda funny , not really that mch but still enough to make me chuckle. |

Are we watching the same show? Well, Nyaruko has this loli appeal while not technically being a loli, so it's alright. Also, I shall remember DraconisMarch. If he posts in the threads for ep 2 and onward, I shall call him a "mindless loli ecchi pervert", and a hypocritical at that :) |
| I want Rambo in a mecha-suit with a laser-chainsaw gun that fires nuclear warheads, fighting the love-child of Predator, Alien, a group of Bangladeshi terrorists, and Satan. (Actually that would be a pretty sick show) - StopDropAndBowl |
| And when I thought Shakugan no Shana was gone forever, this happens. Slightly altered but still awful. Damn my luck. |
| "What are these doujinshi for adult audiences? They're outrageously indecent. Let's buy some." One of many hilarious lines. I was considering not watching anymore about half way threw but I'm glad I didn't. I'll keep watching this since it's hilarious. |
| This was a pleasant surprise. |
 |
| Our Outer God's can't be this cute! |
 |
| This is actually pretty good. Much better than expected. Good comedy and some nice action. Hope they will keep it that way. 5/5 |
 |
| Finally, a 24 minutes long version! I've been waiting for this since the announcement of the flash version. Quite a lot of focus on Nyarlko's legs, and I'm completely okay with that. Asumi Kana shines in this role as well, might be my favorite character of the season if she keeps it up. Loved the humor. The OP is catchy and the ED is cute. 5/5. Edit: I forgot to mention, but I also loved the CoC reference sanity check. Read the rulebook a just few months ago. |

| Don't mess up with the fork. XDD |
 |
| I'm not sure where to lodge this complaint, but uh, why is the name of this show dead wrong on here? The logo quite clearly says "haiyore"... |
| delightful piece of ecchi/lovecraft wonderfullness - h.p. lovecraft has been one of my all time favorite authors since my mid-teens, so this series has a special place in my heart...lots of great laughs in this - i especially loved the references to d8's and sanity points - took me back to the early '90s playing the call of cthulu role-playing game! really great to see they got to do a full length version of this, as i loved the other two short series, although i do miss some of the ridiculousness/crassness of the other versions...this should be a fun ride! i really wanna try the cthulu mythos b.l.t.!!! |

DraconisMarch said: someone has an obsession with pedophilia! personally i didn't see any here, just a fun show (how can it be pedophilia when nyarlathotep is a crawling chaos of indefinite age and planetary origin?) - and yes i am a lovecraft fan (i own all the arkham house editions in hardback), but i also have a sense of humor!This shameless loli pedo fanserive fest is an affront to all things Lovecraft. Have fun with mindless loli ecchi. DROPPED. |

| Love this anime.I think it is going to be my favorite this season. |
 |
| This anime turned out just as expected! I really liked this first episode, Nyaruko is so cute and funny. I loved the Pokemon reference by the way. |
 |
| It's great. Well i don't know how somebody could expect 'serious' anime. 6/5 raxius1230 said: She fighting the demons had charm even there she is cute!!  I rewatched this scene like 20 times already. It make me fall in love in her :D |
| I didn't have any high expectations but it was a pleasant surprise. The relationship between the characters remind me a little of manzai shows. And the references... There were only a few moments where I could actually stop laughing. Yay for moe lovecraftian monsters. Definitely want moar. |
  |
| Funny beginning, lot's of references~ |
