Too bad the series was only 11 episodes and couldn't properly develop, it could have been in the top 3 of the year with such a fantastic direction, creativity and set of characters. I scored it "only" a 9/10 where it would probably have had a 10 with a more solid plot and conclusion.

It was an alright series. A lot of loose ends and rather bland cast outside of the main characters.

I'd rather watch Genshiken, which has better characters.

Yeah, I had some expectations because of Noitamina and the excellent feedback, but this turned out to be simply ok. So, taking in consideration my enjoyment, Kuragehime gets a 6/10, though overall it has some merits and I can understand why so many people loved.

Okay, so I didn't like the ending. Was planning to give it a 9 but I'll make it an 8 for the ending. I expected more.

The way I see it a second season is nearly guaranteed so the ending was fine. It was one of the better episodes and if a second season does happen then I like how it ended opening the door to a potential direction for the show to move in.

Overall though, I loved this show. Every episode was great imo. Definitely one of my favorites.

I was expecting a much better ending but oh well, the pacing is just right so I think, it's good enough. I hope the upcoming specials will wrap up the whole show...and more of Shuu please.

Are you kidding me? This was the final episode? This felt like just another regular episode. I was planning to give this show a 10/10, but dropped it to a 9/10 because the final episode just didn't feel...final.

Wasn't the best ending ever, but in the long run, this was a very good series. It's so sweet and charming and nowhere in the whole series did it lose those qualities. 8/10

It felt so much rushed. And finally I am giving a 4/5 which had 10 straight 5/5 before this episode. Can't wait for DVD only releases of episode 12-15, and might reconsider giving it higher than 9/10.

So, Cheikosho-dono's okaa-sama won't sell it anyways, but good to see they tried to pull something off and it sure gave Tsukimi some good memories.

Anyways, it didn't have those wonderful feel about the episodes before, but sure loved the moment Kuranosuke blushing after saying what he was supposed to say anyways :D

I am happy though, since Noitamina always makes sequels of their anime, which has open ended ending. So I am positive about a second season. :)

The Amas were horrible, annoying, flat, unsympathetic supporting caricatures. Tsukimi was pretty cute but very typical. It was obvious that she could easily be transformed into a princess, at least physically. The plan to make enough money to buy a housing complex by selling dresses and stuffed dolls was ridiculously stupid. I didn't think their jellyfish dress was pretty or special in any way. Kuranosuke was alright I guess. It still feels like he's wedged himself in with the Amas for an amusing detour from his regular life, and not because he genuinely cares for any of them (except maybe Tsukimi) - though I suppose developing sympathy for characters characterized only by their hobbies is a bit too much to ask.

.......they seriously messed up the last /three/ minutes of it. i was gonna give this a 10 but i'll give it a 9 for the vague ending. i still enjoyed the show, it's just sad how it had to get really crappy in the finale out of all the episodes. ;o;

i'll love kuranosuke forever, he's so moe. o///////o

I hope this has a second season. I like the way it ended, but it left a lot unresolved. A lot of characters still have a long way to go. I was waiting for the nuns to show some gratitude towards Kuranosuke for all he's done for them, but sadly they remained the same judgmental, shameless, lazy, ungrateful neets they were from the very beginning. I find it a shame because they were fun characters, very entertaining to watch when they were around each other.

Even Inari was able to improve her attitude. Although I'm still not a fan of her, I wouldn't mind seeing how she and Shuu change because of each other. I kept going back and forth between TsukimixShuu and TsukimixKura, but I decided that TsukimixKura would be best in the end. He's the one who reached out to her, changed her, and made her realize how "beautiful" she really was. Shuu could learn to love the real Tsukimi, but I think it would be more beneficial to Shuu's character than to Tsukimi's. TsukimixKura is mutually beneficial.

It doesn't necessarily need a continuation, it concludes Tsukimi's character quite well in my opinion, but I feel like the other characters weren't given enough attention and the ending just made me wish there was more.

Open-ended, hrm. Second season please!

Funny, nice slice of life, great depiction of otaku. Good music and animation. Wasn't a fan of the love triangle but that looks like it's cooled off and we'll get a Kuranosuke/Tsukimi pairing (if we get a pairing at all).

Could have done more with plot and characterisation, though. The first couple of episodes were a lot slower than the last, which felt rushed. A longer season (or tighter editing of episodes) would have helped sort things out.

Am giving this a 6/10 for heart.

Anyway, I was pretty satisfied with the ending. It was JUST open-ended enough that it can hold out on its own, without making us die waiting for a second season.

That's exactly what I thought. But I do hope for a second season, and for Tsukimi to finally fall for the sweetheart that is Kuranosuke x3 I was pretty sure he'd be your standard, a little bitchy, bossy (well, he is, but in a motivational way, not treating everyone like shit way), tsundere lead that gets jealous over the heroine and stops talking to her because of this about three times an episode. He really is adorable, and so is Tsukimi, for that matter.
Overall, a great series :D Exceeded my expectations. noitaminA ftw.

TEQUILA!

If Tsukimi had made out with Kuranosuke for like TWO seconds, I would have been fine. But that didn't happen. Now I gotta hope and wait and be patient for it to happen. And I hate being patient.

Just gimme a second season and remedy this.

this is the best underrated anime ever! seriously! but the end was open ended....i hope there's a season 2 bt it seems unlikely...guess i'll just read the manga then..for some reason...i dont mind if tsukimi ends up with either kuranosuke or shuu...bt im leaning more on kuranosuke....even though he's a cross dresser...

I'd give this show 7/10, but I expect something different and a lot better (like Arakawa), because OP looked very promising and crazy.
I didn't actually like any of main and secondary characters, some of them even seem a bit plane and irritating. Karate-girl, train-geek, mentally disordered kurage-fangirl & fashion-fanboy, old pervert and so on. Meh... But car-driver was pretty hilarious, I liked him. ;-)
Opening song is very nice and heartfelt, soundtrack is ok, everything else is pretty ordinary and just good. There is no romance, no parody and no hot comedy, script is too simple and oriented for teenage girls, which can understand thoughts of main characters and enjoy little kawaii jellyfishs...
So I don't really want 2nd season, these series was nice to watch but only once.

It's a shame it did get cancelled before any conclusion, yet still, dispite this; I loved this series, it's a 10/10 for me!.

I don't know whether this series was 12 years ahead of it's time of 12 years behind?
The content was very different; different is a good and bad thing, as many will enjoy, yet it doesn't meet trends...
How many harems do we get with a cast of 'non conventional pretty', non bi-polar, adult gilrs whilst the male lead is a driven, complex pretty guy who don't fall into the dormat role?
How often is adult content placed int a story in a very suttle manner - making the series sensible enough for anyone to watch?
How often are the 'very unusual' characters fine the way they are?

I hope this is picked up again some day - I'll look out for it. ;)

If I read plot synopses of this one it'd sound like a bunch of soup opera crap (My mom is dead! I'm the illegitimate son of the minister being kept away from my mom! They're gonna tear down the apartments!) but the execution gives it all nice weight. Funny, endearing, and manages to pull off some drama.

The glaring problem it has is that it doesn't finish. It really needs a second season to bring things around to a conclusion. It's been a while since this came out, though, so that might be pretty unlikely. As it is we spend the whole series developing Tsukime, Shu, Kuranosuke's attraction to Tsukime and even end the series by developing the villain!
