I like it when she tries to catch it with her feet...
Best was when the mosquito was on her nose though, and she starting making this "Wah wah" sound.

Even though it's all a joke and comedy, this anime pretty much shows everything that's wrong with this world lol xD (child labor, pollution, racism...) hahaha

This is kind of a tangent, but the show is reminding me a little bit of Di Gi Charat, what with the invader-turned-worker and the adding 'degeso' to the end of everything. Ika Musume kind of reminds me of Piyoko. I'm really liking it!

Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol.

The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

I think that If I hear another "degeso" I'll snap. xD
She is like the female-squid version of Naruto if that even makes sense! :PP
But what makes sense anyway? xD That's why I totally loved this ep!!!!!
It was sooo full of randomness and win!!!!
5/5 epic start srsly :P

It's cute. Kinda felt sorry for the little not so bright invader in the end. Some decent laughs, but I wonder if it'll start to get boring after a few episodes.

Like mentioned, this could be the new Yotsubato, fun and cute. I had to laugh several times. I also found it to be pretty original and fresh, in my opinion the best 1st episode this season. If only all slice of life anime would be as good as this one.

All the hentai......there will be so much hentai because of this show...... Squid girl is her own tentacle rape ...

I didn't watch it right off the bat because it looked pretty bad. This was actually quite entertaining. Every season needs one of these, good for casual viewing, relaxation, and a few good laughs.

Squid girl swatting masquito was funny, as was squid girls assumptions about humanity.

The entire bit with her thinking otouto was a squid was priceless.

Honestly I felt a bit uncomfortable watching squid girl be milked dry at the cost of her health through intimidation at the end. It was supposed to be funny but sometimes something just strikes you the wrong way. It dehumanized her.

Quiet girls who hang out in the background and don't say much and never stop squinting are always ninjas. Negima taught me that and it has served me well.

Also I wasn't scared of brock until he opened his eyes. God damn that was hella creepy. I think there's a certain irony in that.

Even though this one episode somehow felt incredibly long, I liked it. No objections so far - cuteness and comedy is up to par.

1st impression: You got to be kidding me!? I was like what the hill! Squidgirl's purpose why she came there was a sign of comedy anime. I just want to get this over then drop it, although I find SG cute it won't make it up. Everything was ridiculous BUT..

@21mins it convince me to give it a chance.. the squidgette

Looks alright. Chizuru caught me a little bit off guard this first episode, and then I realized she was voiced by Rie Tanaka, who was in Chobits (Chii) and Hayate no Gotoku (Maria). Interesting...

The characters for the most part don't seem very interesting, but the comedy was fairly clever, so I'll give this a shot.

I laughed pretty damn hard watching this. Who knew a little girl throwing up all over the place and threatening people could be so entertaining? I almost skipped this show.
