I noticed that the one in this anime has the new tower at the middle, which hasn't been built yet.
It seems the people who produce the anime have read Lovecraft, because otherwise they couldn't have really made references that make sense like these.


I think that at least they saw what was going on in Mythos
like including Cthugha and not some more known (like Cthulhu) is a nice touch - there is a short story of Cthugha being not so friendly with Nyarlathotep

and thus I'm looking even more to apperance of Hastur AKA Him Who Is Not to be Named (they get His/Her/It's color right so good)

Ok... Nyaruko won me over as well, I am hating Mahiro a lot because of though... While I understand he does not want to have sex with someone that he just met, but really? She saved your life, you shouldn't be trying to stab her with a fork all the time, it's irritating me.

hope he get better, and Cthuga is obviously going to fall in love with him

Most of the way through this thread, and i thought i was going to be the only person who saw the Big O reference. I thought Big O wasn't popular in Japan, though? My 1st post @ MAL and it's to say "UNKNOWABLE ELDER GODS FROM BEYOND TIME AND SPACE MAKING YAOI DRAMAS,DAFUQ?"

Hmmm... interesting, interesting. But I go for the moe-fied version anyway. :) There are still some characters to be introduced which haven't been in the flash animations.

so you would believe everything a god of deceit and manipulation would say to you? From a cynical standpoint maybe those other creatures are working under her command and just act as baits so Mahiro can be put into a false sense of security. Remember, Tentacle Monster

I really wish they would let you have more than 10 favorite characters on your list.

This show would go from an 11 to a 15 if they took out the really annoying male MC.

Laughed at how Mahiro was supposed to be auctioned off to star in a yaoi drama. And that R'lyeh is an amusement park.

Nyaruko is such a troll. Of course a mere fork is not actually going to hurt something like her, she takes it as more of a signal from Mahiro to stop messing around.

Tentacle monster? Nyaruko herself is a tentacle monster deity. And that ahoge? That's likely an actual tentacle...

Other than the Yuri scene... Nothing really entertained me...

Definitely better than episode 1, where the episode actually felt endless... this episode fly by a bit faster... Still not digging the humor... I don't find them funny.

1 more episode... if I still can't enjoy it (minus yuri), I'll drop this crap.

This anime will probably never be one of my favourites as such, but I have to say, I was grinning/laughing quite a bit during this episode so it must be doing something right! It's nice to see 'villains' messed around with like this once in a while, that quite amused me. XD

In its favour I do like how pretty the art and lighting are at times (particularly when they were on their way to that place whose name I can't remember :P), and that they refrain from giving all the girls over-sized breasts just for the heck of it. Considering that even moe anime like Girls und Panzer do this for the majority of their characters, it's quite refreshing, and actually the fanservice didn't really suffer for it. :P My only real gripe is that Mahiro seems a bit too much of a killjoy towards Nyarko, hopefully they've loosened him up a bit in future episodes.

So yeah, I'll perhaps watch the next episode soon. It's nothing mind-blowing but it's so daft that I can't really give it up. :)

I'll be honest, I wasn't Cthuko's voice to be Miyu Matsuki. She looks like she'd have the voice of Rie. The episode was okay but I hope they tone down Nyaruko's infatuation with Mahiro otherwise it'll get old real fast.

At first since when does CQC involves grenade ? Meh why not ? Quite the yuri scene we got there, Cthuko is just as bold as Nyaruko i guess, nice transformation and win ! Nyaruko don't leave, Mahiro looked sad for once ( only a bit thought ) but she's back, nice ending.

So much yuri \(^.^)/ Glad they cut down on the annoying "I am blah blah blah" a bit. Many references I got, many I didn't get and many I completely missed this episode - I loved it. This show just seems like one big parody to me, whether it's Cthulhu or Kamen Rider xD

Honestly, Nyarko...an Old One and you're acting monogamous?
For shame, rejecting someone who's obviously completely devoted to you. Also, quit channelling Mikoto. You don't even have the same VA.

I sense an OT3 coming on, and it's not even the third ep yet. Gotta be a record for me. I just hope Kūko doesn't turn into another Zigzag/Kuroko...

Nyaruko-san. hon, don't think she cares. as she said so herself. you seemed to be liking the affection she was giving. naughty alien.

And wtf is Mahiro's prob-- Tsundere. in yaoi. i think he'd definitely be the uke.

Kuuko wants Nyaruko, but Mahiro's in the way. Too bad Nodens couldn't sell him off.
Nyaruko's staying so she can kick more ass with her Space CQC Enhancer.

Goddamnit Mahiro! Just accept Nyaruko love already! These Cthulhu tentacle, imagine all the possibilities... ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
That Nyaruko and Cthuko action was pretty damn hot too. She shouldn't have stopped, for the sake of our libido.

They are not actual humans, to start with.
They are shapeshifting alien deities from outer space.
With power like that, do you really think it's impossible for them to adopt a baby?
