I do not like that bird. Having said that...I thought this first episode was amusing.

So, they apparently always forget to actually give Tamako her birthday presents every year?

This episode was a twist from beginning to end... I guess a month will pass between 1 and 2, so the timiming might not be important in this show.

So now Kyoani is doing a wtf comedy?

Well, this first episode was funny... surreal, but funny.

I was half expecting Tamako to say "Kininarimasu" at any moment...

I still have no idea about what to expect (other than cute girls doing cute things)

Hmmmm...

This is actually pretty interesting so far O.o

OMG LOL AT "MOCHIMAZUI"... And when Tamako threw him out when he first talked.

As well as Anko started crying when Mochimazui call her An like she requested of everyone.

Holy shit bird... what the hell are you...

Not as much focus on the cute girls as I was hoping for, but the flamboyant bird is moe enough to make up for all of that.

That bird was so hilarious xD.Is he some kind of projector tho? lol, i was like whaaa after seeing last scene in bed.
Can't really say much about characters yet, but Tamako and Kanna seem the most interesting ones :3 Anko as well.
So yeah, for now it's great, and knowing KyoAni it will get even better.

Without the bird I could watch this, but overall pretty under-awed. I'll give it 3 episodes though.

I'm so glad with this anime! I almost lost all my hopes for this ecchi/fanservice filled season but fortunately there's a second interesting show this season. This show and OreShura have my hopes for this season to become awesome.

You really recognize the KyoAni art style which they've used before in their other shows like K-on. The resemblance is very high. I like the characters, but the bird is kind of annoying. Then again it gives this show another dimension and a lot of funny scenes. I laughed multiple times during this episode.

I noticed that most of the voice actors are quite unexperienced. Well this is their chance to shine! I like them so far. The va for Tamako is really good and I like her songs too. I have high hopes for this show =D I hope that it will not end in a disappointment, because so far this anime season is lacking interesting series.

I think "bland" was the only way to describe that. It didn't give me the same feeling as something like K-ON!, for instance.

I did like that the bird was voiced by Kayneth's VA though, or at least sounded the same. That made me laugh.

Well, he (I assume its a he) is voiced by OnoD, so sounding like a man isn't surprising at all.

How do kyoani continue to make characters that look both similar and yet uniquely different at the same time? liked the ED more than the OP but i think the OP might grow on me after having watched it a second time. Otherwise cute first episode, as expected from kyoani

I was expecting moe-blob crap and instead got a face-fucking alien bird who appears to be a cousin to Wooser...

As long as they focus on the bird and ignore the moe-blob crap this will be an interesting show.

Well, I think it is supposed to be slice-of-life, at least I think it is... so there isn't really much of a storyline anyway. The bird was supposed to be really funny, but I didn't particularly care for the bird, or any of the characters except for maybe the mochi boy. 3/5, had some funny moments but that was about it. Will only watch if I'm really free with nothing else to do.

I don't even know if I liked it or hated it because of that annoying, completely out-of-place-bird..
After all I didn't expect anything from this anime. It's an anime about a mochi shop, so come on.
But all that's left now is confusion and a wtf did I just watch.. oO

Probably the bird is the character that adds the "comedy" what holds this anime up.
Sceptical much..

This was great. I first taught of the comparisons of how similar the MC looks but then i thew that out and enjoyed the show anyways. Comedic, early but slight love interest and a mascot character made this episode top notch.

That stupid Rooster is the equivalent of Jar Jar binks. Cute in theory, absolutely repugnant in practice. The only good part of watching this was the eye-candy of Azunyan look-alikes. and WTF was with that blonde shopkeepers voice?! Something went horribly wrong with the casting there.

So yeah, I came into this with an open mind, knowing it's not a continuation of K-ON!, and it was awful, which was a big let-down. I was looking forward to a good new show.

Yuush! My favourite of the season already! Tori-san is WIN! Every time he opens the mouth, it makes me laugh. Loved it how he gained weight!

I am really interested in Ouji's real appearance, since Tori-san was sent to find a suitable bride for Ouji, or so I would think. Mochizou's rival? Poor Mochizou. :D

5/5 for episode 1.

8/10 for a fun start. But I really don't see the rating going down! Here to enjoy for the next three months! :D

I don't know what the hell I just watched, but I thoroughly enjoyed it! I mean look at all the characters! And that fabulous bird! And Tamako is so cute! And that trap(?) voiced by Daisuke Ono! Yeah, definitely my favorite of the season so far (aside from stuff that's still airing from last season).

I'm assuming that the florist is a guy, hence the male voice.

I liked first ep, it was cute.
I loved K-On and its animation style, so I like the animations for this too of course.
The main girl is cute and weird, her sister is also cute(loli-ish xD). Yui & Ui v2?
Liked the OP and ED.

About that florist with male voice;
Maybe she just smoked a lot when she was younger? :P

4/5.

That bird is kind of annoying. Just a little. Then it kind of changed into a chicken towards the end, LOL. It's pretty cute but I wish it didn't talk. Interesting episode so far, not sure if I like it yet. Not as funny as I expected it would be, but hey, it's only the first episode. I do like the setting of this anime though. It seems like it would be fun to live in a market place.

With this looking like it will be a character anime, it's a damn shame I don't like any of the cast. Good thing it's cute, that should carry me through a 12 episode series.
