You see this anime ALSO had potential (other one im disappointed was hidan no aria)
i mean ppl think fan service is everything, but if they included a huge plot twist viewers would have loved it (for example: azuha apparently has "wearing underwear more than 7 days will turn her into great demon that can easily destroy the world) if they did something like this (i know its horrible) it would have been tiny bit better (my point was they could have put some kind of twist to it at the end
I'll destroy that screwed up illusion of yours!

err they have to drink cum to keep themselves looking good. the simple fact that THIS even exists in the show automatically sets it a cut below everything else. that is, unless the synopsis is lying and this isn't actually a part of the show...?


The synopsis is lying and it isn't part of the show. -.-

It wasn't extremely heartwarming to me, and I had a bad impression through the first episode. I still liked it somewhat though. Poor mangaka. =(

Success or failure of an anime adaptation can actually determine whether the manga is allowed to continue.

That's the first time I've ever heard of this in my entire life. Where did you get that from? Did you read it somewhere or is it something that you are making up yourself?

TJR said:
If sales of the original work are marginal, the failure of an anime (i.e. doesn't move many DVDs, doesn't turn the manga into a big hit, doesn't create a merchandising machine) tells the publisher that there's little potential for growth. That's when they consider dropping the series in favor of something new.

That made absolutely no sense. If the sales of the original work are marginal, why would anybody make an anime adaptation out of it? Anime is extremely expensive to make, so they always make anime out of popular/highly successful mangas so when they invest in an animation project, there is an already existent fanbase to support the show. That's one of the reasons why anime-original projects are so rare (they are very risky, financially speaking compared with anime adaptations made of already established franchises.)

l thought this show was excellent and was saddened to hear of the poor sales. l thought it was cute, fun, heartwarming and had the just right amount of fanservice.

Isn't this the Hayate no Gotoku rip-off?

...What?

That's... an interesting spin on it. I don't think that superficial similarities make a show a rip-off. I've seen both Lotte and Hayate, and no they really are not terribly similar, let alone one being a ripoff of the other.

I just watched the anime version of 'Toy' and read the manga of HnG regularly, and almost every character immediately connected with a HnG character.
It wasn't a rip-off of it, but the connections were very clear.
The male and female leads connections to Hayate and Nagi were like beacons to the rest of the cast.

"How many seconds until the boy confesses his love to the girl?"
~Durarara

Should it be sad now that twice in a season I've been glad that subs scrolls by to quickly for me to process?

Well i kinda liked this show, at first i was kinda scared of watching it because the "age gap" but then it turned into something hilarious and i really think this deserves a 2nd season.

In a side note, i really think that their "love" can be turned into "father/daughter" instead of "husband/wife" this is just my idea though, but since in her world age doesnt matter you just have to watch the anime thinking of that rule.

The final episode STRONGLY suggests that this is NOT what the feelings between the two were. A lot of people where put off because they liked the Father/Daughter vibes, and that was shot to hell.

The worst problem with this show is Naoya. I just can't convince myself that Naoya ia guy. He is more onee-san like. That totally destroyed any possible tension in this show.
Hayate's character is quite similar to Naoya(a butler voiced by a female seiyuu who doesn't feign much interest in the main character) but he is many times better.

They should have made a yuri show instead of this.

It sucks that the sales were poor since this was one of my favorite anime to watch during the spring season. It was so cute and relaxing.
