IT's Rin~! slap on a band aid on her then shes Riko! lol

sadly i wasn't expecting much from this so i can't say i was disappointed the comedy fell flat not sure if some of it was because of the subs or not...maybe it will get better? just felt the pacing was kinda all over the place too.


least the art nice,however the MC pointy eyes and bushy browns annoyed the hell out of me

watching this episode was like having a déjà-vu: same boring character stereotypes(ugh) with such an uninspired and overused setting ..not worth my time.

I felt exactly this. I couldn't go through with the episode. Didn't feel funny at all and was very, typical... to say the least. Dropped as well.

ok first episode. But i did burst out laughing when Fumi mention her uncle
Gomez. My last name is Gomez so thats the reason ^.^


Can anybody explain why that joke is funny? Was there something additional in the
original Japanese? It just seemed so random.


I don't think there is anything funny with it but i laughed because like i said, my name is Gomez.

Mao from GJ-bu strikes back! :)

Anyway, it was kinda cool and I like their chara design, bits of nice fanservice also. But that guy is really talking fast, I had to hit stop button several times during watching this. And sometimes it was funny, sometimes it wasn't, let's hope this gets better as we get to know other characters. Ending cafe romance was well done though.

Kudos to FFF who did marvellous work with translating this, including all those letters and texts.

Had some really funny moments this one. Laughed a lot, definitely my type of humor. The MC does indeed not rise above the crowd, but maybe that's intended to highlight the strong characters of the three girls even more?

Well that was boring. Not very funny for a "comedy".

The date at the end was somewhat cute. I doubt I'll watch another episode.

Not a terrible start but yeah, pretty dull. I didn't find this funny.

Characters are run-of-the-mill. It's hard to be original these days but 'cliched' character traits can still be done well. Sadly, it is not the case here.

I wasn't completely bored or anything so I think I'll continue. I guess I just misjudged this show as I didn't think it would rely so much on the comedy aspect. I was expecting a little something else...

I watch the FFF version and it's a lot more coherent. It's still really boring though.. felt like they were rambling on and on about topic that's uninteresting. At least similar anime like GJ-bu or Seitokai no Ichizon always had something interesting going on.

Well it's watchable only for the fan service. Ikumi reminds me of Riko from Kiss x Sis, their design is awfully similar. This is also the only chance to listen to Rena Maeda this season.

Why is "Ecchi" in the genres? There wasn't anything ecchi, there was a little bit of fanservice when they played with the water balloons but I don't think that's enough to have it marked as ecchi.

Anyways, good episode =)

Oh! Another generic bland romcom with your casual normal guy that nobody cares about!

I must admit, I dig ponytail and flat-chested girl so... Yeah, I'm terribly ashamed of myself.

And that glasses girl... I don't think I can handle her... I can't stand character that go all thesaurus and shit. I just can't see if I'm getting bullshitted at or she's saying something true.

Well, probably end up dropping this show.

I think it was correct to label it as "Ecchi" just to be on the safe side.

There is no sharp borderline between Ecchi and non-Ecchi. However, if
parents bought the Blu-ray for their teenage children based on checking
that it was classified as non-Ecchi, I think there is a good chance that
they would be concerned by the water balloon scene. For one thing,
the bras were very clearly showing. In addition, there was the grabbing
aspect. It went a bit beyond usual "Fanservice".

I do respect bigzzcobzz's point of view that it should be classified as
non-Ecchi "Fanservice". However, I think that in situations that are
right on the borderline between Ecchi and non-Ecchi, the safe thing is
to label it as Ecchi. After all, we anime fans don't want to have a
negative backlash from parents who are ignorant of anime.

I really tried, but I couldn't even get through this first episode. It felt so bland, boring, and lacking in any redeeming features that would make me want to continue watching this. Eccentric cute girls doing ecchi things is not enough to keep me entertained, especially when it feels like I've already seen this type of thing a million times already. This is the 17th title I've started watching for the summer season and the first to be dropped. Hell, I'd rather watch a clearly bad train wreck anime than this boring show.

There's definitely some laughs in this anime. The only problem I have is if the main character was a bit more... I don't know. It's only the first episode and it definitely had the Gj-bu feeling at the start, I almost dropped it. Depending on where things go from here, I may drop it.

I have a feeling that this could possibly turn into a good romance, but again, harem anime's usually are pretty bland on the romance and usually end with the main character getting nowhere.

I don't know why but I didn't enjoy Gj-bu as much as episode 1, although I did drop it after about 5 episodes. =P Might get back into it.
I believe that unless you know for sure that you don't like a concept, you should keep exploring it. Whether it be characteristics of people or a genre of some sort, you never know if you don't like it until you've seen quality work corresponding to that genre. Keep exploring until you've found something you enjoy, or something of quality. Then you know what's bad, what's good, and what isn't for you.

Rino sounds so much like Accel World's Kuroyukihime, the episode felt slow and the comedy wasn't as strong as I thought it'd be, but it is the first episode so I'll see how it continues.

not exactly hilarious, nor or is exciting.

Pretty mild humor and ecchi element.

I think I can burn time with this when I'm bored.

Except Seitokai no Ichizon is at least twice as funny in comparison.

As pleased as I am by Mao appearing as a figurine, the male character here compared to GJ-Bu is really bland. Kyoro had his own quirks and humorous moments, but here.... No comments.

Not really my cup of tea. I was slightly amused by the water balloon fight, but apart from that, nothing was really capturing.

You got that out of her too?
The 3 main girls remind me of: Homura Akemi, Rin Natsume, and Yuu Naruse (WataMote).
although on 2nd thought sports-chan would be more like Wanko from Majikoi.
Hyper, cheery, airhead, cute but sorely outclassed...yeah that's Kazuko right there.

When I saw Mao in the opening minutes I thought "ooh is this going to be like GJ-bu?" Alas, tis not. Comedy fell flat. The male character was dull...really dull. Kyoro looked average but he was funny.
Maybe the jokes were lost in translation? I can only understand a bit of Japanese but even I can tell it was poorly translated. Props to the subbers' efforts though. I'll wait for another subbing group to pick this up. Will re-watch but if it's not much different from this one then this will probably be the first drop of the season.

The dude isn't the funny one. He's the straight man. And also: Mao FTW! I totally caught that, made me want to watch it, I just have an easier going attitude about the show.

Pre-OP sequence was enough to turn me off from this anime. Meh voice acting, unpleasant character design and probably lame character cliches. It's nice that some shows need only 4 minutes to prove themselves uninteresting instead of couple of episodes.

Episode not bad, other production studio Feel that will not shine for epic quality and originality to the nth degree, but in the end it is not boring.
Slow to understand, the first episode is drawn and animated well.
I look forward to the next episode to decide whether to follow him.
For now, my vote is 6/10!
