Osric, very well said.

Throughout this episode I mainly thought I should have dropped it at the third. Well, I'll continue it, but the whole cast and plot seems badly written to me. The narrator could be great, not in the least because Arai is doing a great job, but the lines are boring.

What the hell is the truck driver doing? He's driving too fast to stop at the pedestrian crossing despite seeing pedestrians nearby with intention on crossing the street, he misses the red light and then honks as if to tell the girl he's going to kill her in a moment. He's not even trying to avoid her or do something to save her, no, he honks. Genius driver.

And Tarou looks strangely good in a maid uniform.


And on the edge of sanity I stumble and fall.

<Insert obligatory rage at the narrator here>
I'm getting tired of hearing that voice the first thing that happens every episode =3=

That's one hell of a hit from the batter anyway.
And that's one hell of a lighter Yukime-san had.
And that's some really derp reasoning Otsuu had.
And a pretty derp episode overall. >.>
And of course, way too much stupid narrator.

This was a really simple episode. It's just..Otsuu being Morino's maid. Really, is there going to be a plot soon? I'm only watching now because the characters have good designs and are interesting enough for me to continue watching. I'm really not sure what direction this show wants to go in at this point...

The guys in maid outfits saved this episode from mediocrity.

They failed epically at trying to give Otsuu a deep background. In my eyes, she's still a flat character -- mildly interesting, but still two-dimensional at best. Her whole history shown this episode felt like they jammed it down my throat. It was too contrived, cliche, and completely out-of-place within the episode.

Otherwise, it was pretty decent but nothing spectacular. I think Osric pretty much summed up my thoughts.

Probably. Not that she was introduced as an important character "worthy" of significant character development to begin with. As a result, trying to make her seem all deep and special by using a tragic history made it seem very forced. The writers took the whole thing way too seriously, so it all fell flat on its face. They should have just kept her as a weird - but fun - Maid Type character.

They basically gave her a tragic past, introduced, and killed off a bro in 23 seconds.

Hear, hear. Though it was sad, it was also forced.

But like I thought, the narrator grew on me xP

Great episode!!

Ryoushi's aunt is totally win!!

And Ryouko fan-girling int the bookstore is stellar!!

This show is fun, I'm appreciating the bg stories. They are a little cheesy, but still good.

And, Ringo is genius!! I love it when she smirks.

Looking forward to more.

nice pics haha!!!

anyways the episode is great!!
I'm learning to ignore the narrator who talked again after shutting up last episode...
well I would still miss her if she would be removed but she needs to talk less...

finally I was able to see Ryouko in a maid outfit

Plot is slowly going _______
in the first episode I think the anime had a plot now it's just fillers(I think so...)
but I like the episode, I get to enjoy the show without thinking, no complicated plot, loopholes backstory, etc.

deserves 5/5

and to those who does not like the anime and keep on criticizing it, just drop the anime and we would have a win win situation, you don't see a crappy anime and the anime has no negative comments(well less)

I sympathise with what you're saying, I really do. I remember thinking the same thing on many an occasion. But for my part, in this case, I haven't dropped yet because I remember watching the first episode and, well, liking it. It looked like a fun little ride even if it didn't smack of tremendous originality. And hey, it had Kuroko narrating it; after a little initial shock, I decided I quite liked that. But after a good start, future episodes, and particularly this episode, frankly disappointed. It could just be a dip at the beginning before the show gets good in my eyes again; that's what I'm hoping for. But in the mean time I feel at rights to express my disappointment and, as a courtesy, explain why I'm disappointed.

It's cute. That's all I can really say about it. Nothing special. Certainly not living up to the quality of humor that was shown in the first episode, but we'll see where it's going.

It's falling into a lot of the same traps that most anime comedies get into, and frankly, it has always confused me. Why do they always seem to get sentimental at inappropriate times? It just feels like the entire show grinds to a halt just so we can develop the stories of characters we're not likely to care anything about.

With that said, I still do enjoy it. But then again, I think that might be partially because I have a weakness for tough girls with a soft interior. That sort of story always grabs my interest.

The episode was alright, but what direction exactly is this show going? Is there some kind of plot, or does it remain as loose bits of comedy and DEEP drama (LOL)?


I don't expect a specific story line or a major plot from this anime. It doesn't look it will have such a thing. Probably all the episodes are gonna be consumed by small events happening.

An kind of getting used of the whole silliness, the narrator way of telling events and the way of this show. I didn't like much the first 2 episodes but i find this last episodes to be better.

I am not sure why but I am enjoying this series. I find the silent attraction between Ryouko and Ryoushi to be very cute, done much better than similar relationships between main characters (Mayoi Neko Overrun comes to mind) I enjoy how Ryoushi is a complete badass on the inside, and I am glad that they recognized this in the scene between Yukime, Ringo, and Ryouko.

I’m loving the English dub to this. The narrator’s comments are just hilarious. It’s like watching a show with someone else, which always makes it better. Without the narrator, this show wouldn’t be nearly as funny.

This episode was beautiful.

The author (Yuki) was pretty cool as well, I hope she appears more often.

Also, I'm liking how one character is explained per episode. Everyone is usually involved in some way anyway so it's a win-win situation :).

Also, love how the narration really compliments the series, it gives me Kyon/Haruhi vibes ^^.

This episode was awesome too. But that dam' narrator is so annoying. We know that we are seeing Otsuu at 10 years old and not Mrs. Christmas... it is annoying to hear the obvious this.

Darn it, I clicked the wrong vote! I was going for the 5 out of 5 option but accidentally clicked 1 out of 5, oh well. I actually enjoyed this episode. Otsuu keeping Ryoushi up for 2 days straight must have been tiring, that's why Otsuu got sick because sleep deprivation can do a lot of damage to your body than you may think if you're not careful. I'm really surprised Ryoushi didn't get sick. I loved the little maid skit with all of the characters, that was cute.

Nice storytelling, which has the character of Otsuu already known to all, but never investigated.
Who knows where it will get the plot, I still do not know.
The drawings are beautiful with their Character Design but have some ups and downs during the story, decent animations.
I wonder if all these secondary characters shown so far, will have another chance to be reviewed in another episode, it would be interesting.
