| It's cute, and Hinata is just... :"3 But less fanservice would be really good so that I wouldn't feel like a perve for watching. |

| I didn't actually plan on picking this one up but it was a pleasant surprise for me. We got a nice dose of loli moe, but on the other hand also a nice serious back story from Subaru and his suspension. I'm going to keep watching this. I wonder why the boys' team wants him to quit coaching them. Maybe it has something to do with them wanting to be the best and only team or something? I don't know... Airi is indeed quite big (not only tall =P) for a 6th grader don't you think? And Mihoshi reminded me a bit of Kyouko from Madoka Magica, anyone else? |

We got a nice dose of loli moe, but on the other hand also a nice serious back story from Subaru and his suspension. I'm going to keep watching this. Me too. I'm interested not only in Subaru's backstory, but also those of the girls, like, how Tomoka started playing basketball, how did the team meet each other, and most of all, the reason behind Airi's height anxiety. Onyxthegreat said: Airi is indeed quite big (not only tall =P) for a 6th grader don't you think? No doubt about it. At ~160 cm, that's too big for her age. Thus, she will definitely play Center for the team. |

| It was funny, but not interesting enough to follow this anime. Glad to hear KajiKaji doing main character this season. I have to say, I like blue hair girl the most (voiced by Hikasa Youko). Ms. Index-Miho is annoying |

I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| Mihoshi's blackmail was my favourite. It's going to take some time to get past that "This is such a loli anime" thinking, but I think I can manage. I'm honestly loving the All-Star cast this anime has. Needs moar of Mihoshi's "nyaa"!!!! Man how I love Shizuka's "nyaa" there. 0_o th- that's his aunt?!? XD Damn!!! totally though it was his sister or something... Meh, still fine with this show so far. 9/10 First episode for me. Loving the light-hearted scenes so far. |

Onyxthegreat said: I wonder why the boys' team wants him to quit coaching them. Maybe it has something to do with them wanting to be the best and only team or something? I don't know... I think they want to take the gym away from the girl's team. I rewatched the episode and noticed Tomoka saying something about that precious place while looking at a picture of the girls together in the gym. And I seem to recall that being done in some other anime where one team wants to take the gym time away from another team so it'd fit. I can easily see Tomoka challenging the boys to a game where if the girls win they get to keep the gym. That'd also explain why the girls are so desperate for Subaru to continue coaching them and to get better fast. (I believe there was also some stuff in there with the other girls telling Tomoka it wasn't her fault, but no real explanation of what they were not blaming her for.) ninjaluc79 said: and most of all, the reason behind Airi's height anxiety. That's probably rather mundane. She's around 12/13 years old where girls are normally very self-conscious about their body image anyway, and she's much taller than probably all her classmates, boy and girl. Most girls like that would have a bit of an issue about their height, Airi just kinda takes it to an extreme, but she seems to be a rather shy girl anyway so it's not too surprising even so. I'm actually surprised she's not just as hung-up over her breasts being so large. ヾ(´･ω･｀) |
Anitnelav said: Kinda surprised that Kugimiya Rie isn't voicing one of these lolis. I thought most of her characters is Tsundere, she got other else to work so she can't be in all of the animes. :D The Manga was much better than this, they took most of the details but in the anime version the cut a lot. So it doesn't followed 100% from manga. He become more interesting in Tomoka in the manga, probably will do in this but don't feel like the same by watching this. The way from the manga was more interesting. They keep previews as secret without spoilers so looking forward to see if next episode will be better. |

| I think this is too much "pedobear material" even for me... And there is a llllooootttt of fanservice too... But it's really fun and well animated so i think i will watch the whole season! 4/5 |
| what. the. hell. talking about generic anime. nothing out of the ordinary, everythings a stereotype...srsly, wtf?! |

| Name: Tomoka Minato Birthdate: September 9th (Virgo) Blood Type: A Class: 6-C Height: 142 cm (4-8) Chest Size: None (She's very concerned about that) Position: Small Forward Play Style: Point Forward Grades: Good |

| Hmm I'll give this a shot because I love basketball and need my fix because a certain basketball league is in a lockout right now. |

ArcanaTrace said: 1: Hinata 2: Miho 3: Tomoka 4: Airi/Saki ^ Is this the official roster? Let me fill up the positions 1-5 for those who don't know what those numbers mean. Point Guard (1) - Hinata Shooting Guard (2) - Maho Small Forward (3) - Tomoka Power Forward (4) - Saki Center (5) - Airi Since Airi is the tallest (and biggest) member of the group, obviously she will play the five (5), or the Center position. |
| Lots of cute loli, but it felt like they should have gotten a bit farther, like including the conversation with the boys. Not bad but it could have been better. |
| Wow it was just way more loli and ecchi than I expected... but I don't dislike it... would be nice if they concentrated a bit more on the story though... but I like the basketball theme :) The only thing I disliked was the way he got blackmailed into helping them, I hate those situations where the main char gets blackmailed into doing something -_-" |
| Funny and cute, guess it will be a good way to spend 24 minutes every now and again. 4/5. Edit: Hope Mihoshi gets a lot of screen time, reminds me so much of Konata, already love her character. |
| This looks like it'll be funny and cute. Looking forward to more! |
| Had me until the shower scene... I can't believe TAN is simulcasting this lolicon garbage! Dropped! Urahara Out!! |
 |
| "Master" ---> "Onii-chan" Me: RoFL |
  |
| LOL that shot Tomoka did at the beginning looked horrible... The second one was nice though. :) |
 |
| haha, that was pretty hilarious. I think the boys team tricked him into going into a back alley and beat the crap out of him =(. |

| Lolis everywhere, well other than that this first episode was quite decent don't really know for sure how well the story will progress but it's off with a good start! Let's see what this Anime has to offer! |
 |
| Surprisingly good! I didn't think it would be so much fun but the characters are all likeable, the main lead's basketball history provides some spice to the story and the OP and ED were great. Looking forward to more of this. |
| Well about as good as one can hope for based on the description and image. Watching this since the second season will be airing in a couple of days. Trying to watch almost everything this season. |
 |
| I'm watching this for the plot and basketball.....I swear! |
| I started this anime because I want something to fill the gap between the new episodes of Kuroko no Basuke II coming out. Sure has a lot of fanservice though. I wonder why Airi doesn't like being tall, I mean, it's good to be tall in basket ball, isn't it? More basket ball though! |
| This was both better and worst than I expected. How old is Airi? Her breasts are huge for a 6th grader! Everyone is a loli which I don't mind but Mihoshi shouldn't be a loli. She's a teacher damn it! Other than that I liked it. Nice OP and ED. |
| Seeing that somewhat threatening letter followed up by a harmless little "gang" of elementary school boys made me laugh. I was hoping Suburu would be a bit of a sarcastic ass in response. "Ooh I'm soooooo scared." |
| It has nice animation. Other then that...meh. Hope it gets better. |
| "No, son, you may not have your body pillow at the dinner table!" |
| Hinata is pure moe. Her way of speaking is pretty cute and in general she was cute through the entire episode. Subaru's mom, sweet car she's driving. Looks like she's driving possibly a Toyota Trueno. But wow her personality is so hilarious. Such a teaser. okthxbaii said: Am I the only one who gets a feeling of Lucky Star from watching this? The character designs remind me so much of it... I love Hina, she's just so cute. She's like the Elizabeth from Softenni. Agree. I thought the mom looked a bit like Konata from Lucky Star, just more mature. |
 |
| Kawaii stuff. I don't think I will see any dunk in this one. |
 |
| I love these lolicon shows T_T I love lolis so much |
 |
| I have zero interest in sports(except motorsports), but I don't mind watching sweaty lolis play basketball. hehe That teacher looks like a loli too. lol That Aoi chick is really pretty! I hope she has plenty of screen time too. |
| rewatch because i need lolis. that op reminds me of railgun op. very similiar style and voice. id be the coach of a loli club.. i mean the girls basket ball club i didnt remember miho was that cute    |
