This was pretty funny! I laughed quite a bit :D It was very enjoyable. Any show with a villain firing lasers from his penis is just pure win, lol!

LOL that was so frickin funny. XD

Wow watching this really reminded me of Hayate no Gotoku... i mean like the font style, the shiritori during the eyecatch...
well they're both from Synergy SP.. :P

Gonna expect much fun in later episodes...
It's been a long time since I've watched a brighter themed shonen action/comedy anime. :D

BTW, I knew I heard that voice from somewhere...
OMG Kaoru's voice is Hirano Aya!!! <3
plus, Aoi is Shiraishi Ryoko (Hayate's voice)!!! :)

It was a bit all over the place but I guess that's normal for introduction episodes. Doesn't seem like a bad one.

The initial settings seems very different from the manga version though. The guys from Pandra already shows up.
Mussle Ookama's ray (which surprisingly, pink) and the choice of his CV left me laughing.
But not so satisfied with Kaoru's cast, although it might just be a personal preference.

Same folk from Hayate no Gotoku ?

By the way, how many years has it goes since Ghost Sweeper Mikami ?

It should remind you of Hayate no Gotoku!, because it's directed by the same person, Kawaguchi Keichiro.

Also Moetan. Also Getsuman to Heiki Miina.

err... no, she's the one described as having body of a girl, and the mentality of an "ero jijii"

the tsundere chara is the teleporter from Osaka, the one voiced by Hayate's seiyuu :)

indeed, it only took 10 seconds for me to notice that. But I like how they still kept it quite original and damn funny.

And I loved that perverted girl.
I bet we will get a lot of jokes from her in the future too.

This is like the spiritual successor to Hayate no Gotoku, except not nearly as good. Same director, same studio. It shows hints of promise, so I'll most likely keep up for at least a few more episodes before making a final decision.

yeah me too XD i was like..."is that haruhi speaking? @_@" *checks seiyuus for show* "ZOMG IT IS! XD" wow coming from watching to-love ru, kanokon and rosario+vampire(i know they shouldn't be compared to this one but bear with me XD) i was surprised to see a slew of panty-shot moments and..no panty shot.

that was refreshing for a change. to be able to inject green jokes in the show with almost no fanservice takes a lot of win to perform, and that is just what this show does. plus hirano aya's role as a pervert cracks me up XD

hirano quotes FTW!

Which proven my worries when I first saw the cast list.
In the end, she used her "Konata" image. Well, not the "Haruhi" image, but still one of the two.

That's a totally subjective matter though.

Supposedly, the ray changes objects' density, making them harder. Which is kind of ironic seeing the way Kaoru (and everyone else later on) beats him ^^;

Heh, I started watching this as I enjoyed The Unlimited - Hyōbu Kyōsuke quite a bit so far.

Oh the animation is a bit weaker but much more humorous. It's also a bit lighthearted compared to the original. Oh God, the antagonist in this episode was just wrong in so many ways. Pleasant episode so far and the children are so cute :P

Nice to see Kyosuke at the end of the episode as well.

Haha. This reminded me of how FSN was more lighthearted than its prequel F/Zero. Anyway, I'm looking forward to finish this anime and proceed for the more serious badass sequel.

Totally different from The Unlimited but good in its own way. And best of all, I can marathon it during the spring break.

Sort of funny, but a weak first episode. Good introduction to the girls I guess, but as much as I like Muscle as a character, unless he's using a rocket launcher or surface-to-air missiles, he's not really a very good combatant... lol... smh

Not bad, but by far one of the weakest episodes in this series. Not really good to start an anime with one of these, it turns people away before the meat and potatoes - I considered dropping it after a couple of the first episodes the first time I watched this ...which would've been a mistake ;)
