| Never read the manga, so I'm completely new to this. Loved it, might end up being my favorite show of the season. Can't wait for the next episode. |
| awesome start :) |

llamaben said: I came into the anime with extremely high expectations, but this episode even surpassed them. With only 25 episodes, I thought the pace may be a little fast, but the pace was done perfectly - felt really nice and slow, while covering 57 pages. As a manga reader, I found that the voices fit quite well, which is quite rare for a first impression. Not only that, it would be extremely hard to find a better OP for the series, and the ED is well above average as well. The insert OP (not really sure what to call it) was also great, as was the BGM. The story itself is only just getting started, but the manga is really well done, and if the anime sticks to the manga there's no doubt the story will be very interesting. My only complaint so far would be the animation, which felt a little low budget. By no means was it terrible, but could have been better... Oh well, I don't really care too much about animation anyway. Basically, IMO everything was perfect except for the animation. I should never have expected any less from Kenichi Kasai, who really brings out the best in any adaption he does, and is definitely my all time favourite director. I'm starting this off at 10/10, which is obviously a first for me... I think you have said everything I was going to say. And I completely agree about the animation value. Something about it seems off to me. Can't quite put my finger on it yet. But as you, I couldn't care less about the animation. My only complaint however is the opening. I was expecting something that would get you hyped up for the episode. but instead, we have some lovie dovie genetic love song. Overall. Fairly well done. Was a little skeptical at first but now, i'm pleased with the outcome. |

| Wow, I need to begin to read this manga (I was planing to before this but there are exams). |
| Miho looks prettier in the anime! *joy* |
| So nice seeing this series in animation. The Super Hero Legend opening at the beginning was awesome! I hope they make a fake opening for Crow too! But these Engrish subs are terrible. No matter, I already know what's going on anyway. |
 |
| I think it's not too hasty to say this show's gonna be good :) I was waiting for this anime, and i'm glad it met my expectations ^^ I'm looking forward to the rest! (I already wanna watch the next ep so bad!) I like the references to Dragon Ball and One Piece :D I'm glad i didn't read the manga, so that i could enjoy the anime more~ It's gonna be fun =) |
| One word: Icrappedmypantsattheawesomeness. |
 |
| Wonderful first episode! Kaya's VA is a bit annoying, but hopefully that will change. I can't wait to see some Eiji action. Takagi is so much more taller than Mashiro in the anime than the manga! I really liked both the OP and the ED. I though it was great that they showed the OP for Mashiro's uncle's anime. Caught me off guard too, though just for a bit :P |
p r o f i l e đź‘€ |
| I liked it :D They got the feel of the manga right. :D cant wait to see all the epic faces Saiko and Tagaki now in color&sound. XD |
     |
| I've never read the manga but I was very interested in watching this series. I really like the animation style and the plot is different from a lot of other shows right now. It's got a nice bit of humoring going and I can't wait to see how things develop. And the part were Saiko just yelled "will you marry me?" just killed me XD All in all a good first episode. |
| lol i was only watchin it cuz it seemed kinda cool... but this might just be the best this season |
     "If only if only, the woodpecker cried, the bark on the tree was as soft as the sky" || ♪My mind, heart is broken♫ |
| JC Staff has done it again. What a great start that was. The references to other manga was pretty lulz. |
 |
| Good kickstart to an episode, animation almost looked terrible, but it was fine to my standards. Instant marriage promise = lol. 8/10 |
     |
| 'There is no way we're going to top Dragonball or One Piece' XD Funny episode throughout and a very unexpected 'YES'. Takagi is basically awesome. The animation was a bit bad but hate complaining about it. Can already see myself loving this show. Just hope they don't drag it and make it boring as the show will have 25 episodes. |
 |
| As a person who reads the manga I was waiting for this for so long! It was good, though I think the opening doesn't suit the anime at all. I imagined a more powerful, energetic one. |
| If your all sharing positive words for the adaption, then i can rest assured and watch, then read. I was going to pick up the manga when i saw it was getting an anime and decided to wait. My expectations were high since i saw the raw today, and i was bouncing around the room from then till i had to type this. This past year i have had DRR, Angel Beats, and K-ON!! to look forward too as my 'i am entitled to awesomeness every week' show. Hopefully this can be this Fall's show. I seriously had to pause at the proposal part, recollect from the embarrassment i felt for the kid, and resume. Thankfully it turned out fine for him. =) I have to say Takagi isn't #1 in the class for anything; he is pretty crafty. |
| Couldn't wait for this anime ! I stayed up just to watch it subbed !! It's just as an awesome starts as the manga !! I had to replay his proposal cause it was damn hilarious how his face changed after it xD I hope Eiji will appear sooooon <3 Awww my dear Eiji <3 |
   |
| good stuff im going to like it lots |
 |
| Rather interesting OP. Cute girl? Check. Death Note plugs? Check. Hikaru no Go? Wonder if anyone else knows what that is. Epic keikaku by Akito. LOL @ accidental proposal. Oh wow, they didn't have to bleep Dragonball or One Piece? ED song is nice. Edit: Wonder how BROmantic this is gonna turn out (Haven't read the manga) |

| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
| How cute~ I love the anime references. 'There is no way we're going to top Dragonball or One Piece' Lol at that line in particular. |
 |
The OP with the Super Hero manga was a nice surprise. Everything appeared real faithful to the original. I have faith this project is gonna turn out well. |
 |
| Enjoyed this first ep. The accidental proposal and anime references were cool. |
| ok at first i dlded some subs from a sub group (if it is one....) called something like FWG...(can't remember correctly cause i erased the file ofc) oh CRAP what the heck where they drinking? someone wanted obviously to have fun and everything was so messed up. i'm glad i waited for the normal subs. Anyway, this episode was amazing, really really entertaining and clever. I caught myself smiling and laughing many times. Loved the Hero theme in the beginning. Hope it keeps it up this way, with an improved animation though... Stll it deserves a 5/5. |

| Err somehow the anime seems more comedic than the manga ? It's a promising start, looks like I really need to get used to the seiyuus |
 |
| lmao, i fell out of my chair when he asked her to marry him. That was epic funny. As far as first episodes go, this one is up there near the top. High expectations this season. |
 |
| Oh gosh, that was great XD I love this series already, although I did read the manga so I knew what to expect. The "....Eh?" after this scene was CLASSIC! Death Note references made me chuckle XD And this... Was just Batman nerdiness that made me laugh the most through the episode |
| One of the few anime that i find to be the most interesting so far for the new season, i havent read the manga so ill continue to watch the anime. i've read on some forums that the manga doesn't have much romance in it, which isn't so much of a problem, but i hope this plot/subplot of the series gets resolved at some point. enjoyable episode. |
 |
| pretty good adaptation so far. voices seem about right. hopefully they keep it similar. the art is a little different but I can get used to it. as a follower of the manga I'll keep up with it unless they ruin it bad. should be good though. azuki was pretty cute. |
 |
| I liked it. Loled at the marriage part. xD marrying a doorbell LOL |
| that was funny!! made a good first impression on me since i've haven't read the manga yet. |
 |
| I absolutly adored the hero opening. That was pretty damn awesome! |
Well one thing I've learned from this experience, is that a princess is still a princesss even when she is naked. |
| Haha, super funny, lol XD |

| I like it but the "fake" OP could mislead one to drop this anime lol. I dumped manga long ago, I prefer anime^^ |
| . |
| ‘sup dawg, we heard you like meta-fiction, so we wrote a manga about people writing manga, so now you can read a manga about how they are writing a manga to get you to read it. While they are writing it. |
| A very decent start. I can't say I was terribly impressed with it until the point he asked the girl to marry him but that was a decent enough hook to make me want to watch a few episodes of this. Does anybody know if they plan on ending the manga and the anime at the same time...? |
| Never knew about this definitely gonna read manga now. Great ep love the reactions to the marry me part. |
 |
| I'm so glad this is an anime. I loved this episode; the rest looks promising. The OP and ED are awesome, too. |
| Fake opening caught me by surprise, but I quickly realized what it was. :P It has turned out great so far....can't wait to see what other episodes are like. |
| ******************************************************** Note: I decided not to accept random friend requests. Most of the ones I accept will be people I know from other sites unless I get to know some people here. (=^_^=) |
| Another non-manga reader here and I thought it was great. The setup at the end was a little contrived, but I love the concept and the juicy meta. |
| Not bad episode faithful to the manga ( minus lots of text in the latter) and good ed. Expectations are quite high after Death Note. |

| OH MY FUCKING GOD!!! my long wait has been payed off with an epic first episode!!! even though i already read the manga (and know what will happen next... buzz kill for me >: ) i still feel the feeling i had when i started reading this series; glad that it followed the whole 1st chapter, now i wonder how will they end this. Can't wait for the next episode... HURRY UP TO NEXT WEEK!! OP was ok and lol on the Super Hero Legend OP xD the ED was better than the OP to me though the animation was meh, they could've done better though >: the character design was great and i lol'd at the "will you marry me" part xD and i want to see Eiji animated already D: |
     |
| Awwwww hell yeah! This show is gonna be sick, I just know it. I can't believe she fucking said yes to marrying him hahahaha. |
