Well, I'm glad that the story contines and I kind of like this season's animation, much better than the last one.

I though that Fujioka would be happy to see Kana. But I guess not.

Great first episode for me. The ending was just hilarious. Fujioka opens the door and Kana is standing there, then he just casually closes it. Lol, so great.

Awesome start, altough I was surprised it starts with onsen. However it was good, and sometimes scared the hell out of me (old-man-glasses suddenly appear). And also funny as hell.

What happened to my Minami-ke!? I did not like the OP or ED. My biggest complaint is the animation; the colors are all wrong! The fanservice was also unexpected. I didn't mind it too much, but I just hope they don't use it too often like they did in this episode.

I will continue with the series only because the most important thing was still there, Minami-ke's humor. The confusion at the onsen was funny; however, the rest of the episode lacked in the humor. I'm hoping this may just have been a bad start.

I didn't even know they switched studios until I read the thread. I knew there was something wrong with chiaki's hair. There was something off with all the chracters in general (except for maybe Mako-chan).

They added a kitchen? I thought the kitchen was tiny...

I loved the new OP and ED. Highlight of the episode was when Kana and Fujioka stumbled upon each other in the baths... couldn't stop laughing there! xD

The new art is really weird for me. :/
I liked the simple art style of the first series. Lets just hope the comedy portion picks up in latter episodes.

What the hell happened to Minami-Ke???
It isn't cute anymore - it's just normal.
And I didn't find any comedy in the first ep :(

I enjoyed the first episode but the different animation I didn't think was a cute but it was still an pretty good episode. I have to say the first opening was better than this one, but this episode was pretty funny.

Both the OP and ED were awesome! However it didn't felt as funny as the first one, oh well probably it'll get funnier in the later episodes.

I really enjoyed this actually. After hearing how bad the other seasons were, I purposely waited a few months so that I wouldn't constantly be comparing this and the first season.

It wasn't OMGLOL funny, but I got a few chuckles here and there and it was entertaining to watch. I can't say I ever thought the first season was laugh out loud funny either, so maybe it's just me.

No to just wait until Hosaka shows up. Then it will be a party.

I actually liked the animation of the first Minami-ke series better than this one, it seems like the facial expressions in this one are a lot less detailed.
Anyways this episode wasn't as funny as I was hoping but the scene where Fujioka gets mixed up with the baths was pretty funny.


This was exactly what I was gonna say. I never noticed the hair style that Chiaki had in the first series, but I don't like the one in this series (how it's blonde then purple-ish at the ends)

I like the OP and ED just as well as the old ones, they're both amazing imo. This just looks way cooler, but the other OP fitted in better imo. The new art style is a lot more modern, but the faces just look off now, perhaps it's something that I'll get used to in a while.
I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page.

It was okay. A couple of good jokes here and there. That cross-dressing thing has really caused all kinds of problems for Mako and Touma.

And what's with everyone mentioning "fanservice"? I didn't notice any.

Oh, you mean characters were naked in multiple scenes? Well, if I get to see characters being naked, but without seeing any actual nudity, to me it's not fanservice; it's teasing and it pisses me off big time.

I respect your opinion as long as you respect mine.

Whoa what the hell happend to their Hair colour. It's kinda wierd now.
This Episode wasn't that bad, i mean that confusion caused by Touma and Makoto was funny.
Mako-Chan is cute and funny as usual.

What a depressing new year xD

Mako and Touma, they can be a successful duo manzai if they want xD
So Kana can get embarassed too huh

Poor Uchida
Why you left her alone, Kana? :(
Also, she's way too good.. Everyone must thought "she won't come" and she did

I agree! Don't imitate everything you see!
Bakayarooo~ xD

I fell bored, and the OP and ED seems out of place for a comedy show.

Why art in TV-2 are so different?

^this.

Can't say I am surprised, but this season has seemed to have lost its magic in more ways than one from the 1st season. Only watched 1 ep though, maybe it will get better.

I might just have low standards when it comes to slice of life because I enjoyed this episode, but it seems that wasn’t the same for the majority of the people that watched this. Granted I wish the animation was better but you can’t really do anything about that.

Despite being made only a year apart, Minami-ke Okawari is much more animated. A different studio produced the second season, but the style of comedy is still roughly the same. It's strange seeing the blacked out unnamed characters, and the opening seems out of place for the show. Also, I noticed that the clomp of hair on Chiaki's head is used akin to a sentient ahoge.

The opening song is not as chaotic (and funny) as the first season. The animation can be creepy and out of place at times. Sometimes even more creepy, in terms of how the movement of characters and their facial expressions.

Studio change, eh.
The opening and ending doesn't feel like this is comedy anime. I think the song is for the serious one.
I'm having a bit of a hard time remembering the character because the art change.
