Looks like this is another short. It's only about 5 minutes but the artwork looks nice. It introduced the majority of the guys so....expect them to make appearances from here and out. The girls really like one of them too.....

I really liked it! It's a pity it's only 5 minutes per episode. Hope I can play the game soon too, since the story seems interesting. I always love Utako Yukihiro's designs, so I'll be looking forward the next episodes! *O*

I didn't look at the time length so I'm surprised that its just 5 minutes.

Decent first episode. Could be better if its was full length.

Same same. And the VAs too. The art is really pretty and cute.

IshiKai's character, I like. Didn't realize it would be 5 minutes only either, but that's fine for me since I ended up picking up way too many anime this season.

5 minutes?
Wasn't expecting that. Still, I picked up just because.

Let's see how a reverse harem works.

The rich purple-haired girl ( Tsubaki Sannomiya / 三ノ宮 椿 ) intentionally called
Sayuri "sayori", which is a kind of fish. That was so mean.

Here is the anime version of the "sayori" fish:
http://www.bonkoi.com/images/story/01/img02.jpg

If you want to see what a real-life "sayori" looks like, search on Google Images
for any of these names:

サヨリ

細魚
針魚
English name: Japanese halfbeak
Scientific name: Hyporhamphus sajori

The anime version of the fish is good, but not perfectly realistic. The actual
"sayori" looks very strange. It has an extremely long "needle" growing straight
out of its lower "lip" (if fish have lips).

I love Sayuri and her comical friend Ran Mochizuki (望月蘭):
http://www.bonkoi.com/images/story/01/img01.jpg

I hate the three rich snobby girls. Tsubaki Sannomiya is standing in the middle.
http://www.bonkoi.com/images/story/01/img03.jpg

I can see that the six male characters are all extremely good-looking, but I am
more interested in this series for the "food-service" and "eye-candy".

Sayuri doesn't have time for romance, but I think romance will make time for her. :3

All I could think about was the VA for the Purple Haired Yoshinosuke, because his voice sounded familiar so I looked him up, and realized he plays Yoshino Yusuke in Clannad...found it interesting that their names are similar...at least in Romanji

Here are how those two names are written in Japanese:

In Romaji: Suzumi Yoshinosuke
In Hiragana: すずみ よしのすけ
In Kanji: 涼 芳之助

In Romaji: Yoshino Yuusuke
In Hiragana: よしの ゆうすけ
In Kanji: 芳野 祐介

The only commonality that I can see is that both names share the character
芳 ("yoshi"). When read with other pronunciations, 芳 can mean "fragrant" or
"good". When 芳 is pronounced "yoshi", that is its "nanori reading". Such
readings are found almost exclusively in Japanese personal names.

I am not sure, but I think that in the past, 芳 used to sometimes also carry the
meaning of "virtuous" or "having a good reputation". So it would be a natural
character to use as part of a person's given name. Looking at it that way,
"Yoshinosuke" (芳之助) would mean "virtuous helper". But for the surname
"Yoshino" (芳野), where 野 means "a field", it would only make sense that it
means "fragrant field".

First rule of fight club, don't spread your legs get into a romantic relationship with the teachers. This should be common sense, no? But considering the demographic of this, she's going to essentially get wet in a relationship with not one, but all the teachers, and pork them isn't she? So much for the cooking. The only muffins those teachers are going to be buttering, looks to be just the students, seeing as Japan is the place where teachers can freely pork their students, and not go to jail for it. Oh, and let's throw in a "bad-boy" into the mix as well, just for good measure.

I suppose that is the very nature of harems and reverse-harems. Dropped.

HUH. Is this episode just 5 minutes long.. or is every episode going to be like this?
Anyway; I quite like the art. I like the fact that each character is very colorful. XD
I am excited about the fact that there's finally a harem which evolves around a GIRL instead of a guy. But the guys seem so UNATTRACTIVE. The red-haired guy seemed ok, but the rest of them are just......... NO THANKS.

If you want to see another anime series where a girl is surrounded by a bunch of
handsome guys, you might want to have a look at Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge.

Uta no Prince-sama, Brothers Conflict, Hakuouki, Amnesia, Kamigami no Asobi, Diabolik Lovers are some I remember right now (all based from games).

Well, for a first episode this was okay. Rich girl is annoying, but the main chara's friend looks cool (lol @ her swooning while the teachers introduced themselves).
About the bishies, my favorite so far is Aoi. I didn't liked Gilbert very much, the ginger and the other one are fine. Looking forward to next episode.

Yes, and plenty more if we go further back. And there's even another one this season. (Fantasy one, can't remember the name.)

I quite liked it but it just felt like a brief introduction/trailer more than an actual episode. Hopefully the running time won't feel like such a problem once we are more familiar with the characters.

Akatsuki no Yona? I'm not watching it but from what I've heard it fits the definition.
