mitsji said: I love the cooperation between the different companies/people I wish that there'd be more episodes but then again, they'd exploit or ruin the story Having read the manga this is very true and exactly what happened,it got very repetitive and tried way to hard to "up the stakes" by introducing all kinds of crazy bimbos and ridiculous situations. 6 episodes ,while short,was exactly the perfect amount of wacky yet charming Golden Boy had to offer. |
| So this ep is basically how this whole anime was made. And i love how theres always a toilet scene in every ep xD too funny. My fave eps were 2 and 5. |
| And I was hoping for them to catch Kintaro in the end. Too bad, no hilarity ensuing...Golden Boy generally features Kintaro in his journey of self-discovery through the unorthodox means of applying for jobs with women, and obviously, his weird fetishes. It would be pleasant if they could develop this into a full-fledged anime based on modern technology, and also reveal a bit more on his back-story, providing more details on the character Kintaro himself. However, considering the explicit content - it is but a distant dream. Praise for its unique take and episodic nature (which suits in this case due to Golden Boy's comedy format), and important life-lesson undertones throughout, with a highly ecchi facade though. Benkyo, benkyo, benkyo!! |

| Well I would say that this one was the worst one of all the anime, but still great. 4/5 for this episode, 10/10 for the whole anime. Really loved it, maybe because of it that I´m very similar to him :D :P |
 |
| Hm kinda disappointing how it ended, the first episode was really great. Then it kinda went downhill, unfortunately just 3/10 I wish I could give more :/ |
| I really liked how that all came together at the end. It was quite a nice little story. 7/10 |
 |
| This episode was kinda cheesy and a little rushed but solid 9/10 for the series though. |
 |
| All rightish. Smiled a few times. Too bad Kintaro wasn't a badass like I imagined him. 4/10 |
| This was beautiful. This episode was awesome. Overall, this OVA's were truly amazing (if you watch it English dub) |

| While not as funny as other episodes, it was a decent final episode. Dude's toilet fetish almost got him in trouble again. |
  |
| The MC is such a superb character and the way he tackles every endeavor with true passion and without complains is inspiring to say the least. That's the sort of character that should be common on the ecchi/harem/rom-com series. |
  |
| What a fun ride, I can see why it has such a great reputation. |
| All the hottie's together in the last episode. Great one for a finale |
| Kintaro is my new hero "STUDY STUDY STUDY STUDY STUDY" will also be my new motto to motivate me every time I actually go and study :( Those women that Kintaro met are all fine as hell, gg. It's a shame that no actual real romance happened to any of them w/ him 9/10 - Truly enjoyable for a short episodic show |
 |
| Loved that they brought all the characters from the past episodes. This was a fun ride. Short and funny. 7/10 |

| At the end of the day the dude got all them hoes. |
| My favorite type of jokes in anime is when it's not joking and is actually serious about what it's doing, which happens to be the joke. Computer programming, swimming, animation studio culture; it's actually trying to be educational, which is the joke. It's even funnier when the real life images were used, making me imagine Golden Boy's animator team just took pictures of their own studio and just started making meta jokes out of a show that was already making meta jokes about itself. I mean, it's praising the animation process and the wonders that mere colors and pictures can bring art to life here, in a show that features a main character with a toilet seat fetish. Then the show has the gallbladder to try and connect all of its previous episodic stories in a single piece of work, something which any normal anime wouldn't bother to deal with. I really like this anime, and because of that, I hate this anime. What..what gives? Why was it this anime that was given so much attention and effort? Why was it made with so much care and effort? Where was this in other titles that were riddled with cliches, stock characters and safe, middle-of-the-road plots that lend to general appeal with little ambition or personal vision? The greatest joke of this anime was that it wasn't a joke. This was a real anime that was made by people who cared about what they were doing. Just...dammit. |
| Pretty entertaining series although Kintaro is an absolute tool. Still a 7/10 for me. |
  |
| It was cool seeing all of the old characters make a return. Their reaction to Kintaro suddenly leaving again was gold! |
 |
| the ova overall was entertaining i guess ... i really didn't except much from a fanservice anime it was pretty cool to see all the girls from the previous episodes helping the mc in the last episode tho |
   ｡⋆｡˚☽˚｡⋆｡ from the days that i've lived those i had spent with you, seemed real 月光 |
| This anime is just perfect. Very educational 10/10 |

| Lol this definitely never happened in the manga. |
"At some point, I stopped hoping." |
| The two first episodes were the best, then is started to get a bit too repetitive. Anyway, great series overall. Too bad ecchi-comedy anime of this quality are so rare. |
| Although not the funniest episode, it was still the most entertaining episode. A surprisingly "proper" conclusion to this 6 episode OVA series. All the episodes were enjoyable, but the last two episodes were definitely the best. Benkyou/10 |
 |
| I kinda wish more OVAs like this were made nowadays. I usually hate ecchi in anime, because it usually takes away from the story, but here it is the story. Kintaro hilarious adventures had me laughing more than any other “comedy” anime I’ve seen in recent memory. |
| I like how they subverted the plot by using perverted cliches...Life is indeed a Benkhyo....Loved how the animation girl valued the importance of her job after coming in contact with him..9/10 |
| Man, one of the funniest if not the 2nd funniest anime I've ever watched (nothing can beat daily lives of highschool boys)! The dubbed version made it even funnier aswell. Main character was great, and I'll probably rewatch this someday. 8.4/10 |
| What a great way to end this series! Bringing back all the girls he helped out / charmed so far was a clever idea. My favorite part was his high-speed boob dive. And of course no episode is complete without him weirdly obsessing over a toilet seat. I don't get that fetish at all, but it's still funny. :P I also liked that the episode was about animation. I wished it was more action-packed like last episode (which is still by far my favorite), but it had a certain charm and was more interesting than some others. Overall I'd say that Golden Boy sits between a 6/10 and 7/10 for me, which on my own rating scale is pretty good! I will go with a 7/10 now and give it the benefit of the doubt. Because the good parts really were that good! /edit: I changed it to a 6/10. :P Which is still good! (my average score is around 4.5) |

| This is the Shirobako episode lol This episode also showed the limit between me and Kintaro- man, even I wouldn't want to get frisky with a toilet in a unisex bathroom, even if a pretty woman did just use it This was pretty great, especially the ending that tied the previous five episodes together Kintaro's choice to not graduate and not seek lifetime employment but to live as a freeter seeking to continually learn and improve himself is a surprisingly inspirational model for an ecchi anime protagonist. Considering the genre, I think Golden Boy deserves its score of 8 on this site. ...Did I mention the character designs were hot and mostly my types? |

| Loved the series, wish it had a few more episodes |
| With this being the final episode, they sure went all out with the execution and I appreciate that. This one is by far the most educational episode in the anime because it revealed so much about the process of animating and to an extent, the usual happenings in a small anime studio (and an ecchi one at the side as well). Kintaro worked his hardest to make his own anime and having him call all of the girls he had met throughout his journey to help him out in different ways was awesome. It's already impressive enough that he wins the girl over and leaves off into the sunset but having all of them come together like a harem and still ditching them afterwards makes Kintaro the ultimate virgin Chad. |

| Benkyoni naruna, wonder how many times he said that. overall I really enjoyed this show wish there was more, glad the manga has 100 chapters. |
| In my personal head cannon Kintaro was caught by all the girls and lived a happy life of studying *wink wink*( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°) This was VERY EDUCATIONAL !!! Great anime 9/10! |
| Very educational indeed and animation is top notch ! |
 |
| Now that's how you do an ending. It was satisfying to come back full circle, the girls make one last appearance + they actually do something to help him out in return. I didn't expect anything else for such a short and stupidly fun series. It definitely would have dragged on if it kept going. The scene where Kintarou was looking at the workstations - I'm sure the animators preferred drawing the desks clean than actually doing it haha. |
| I can't decide if this is a 9 or 10 at same time it feels like a cliff hanger but at same time it feels like a good ending... How Educational! |
 |
| i came in with high expectations but left disappointed. doesn't seem different from newer ecchi titles honestly yet garners a lot of attention for some reason |
| Love it, all the girls he's met so far helped him out with the final episode. Study, Study, STUDY! I actually didnt think the anime would be this good, the comedy is so well done The sexualized theme actually does it justice instead of all the other ecchi shows that have come after and are still coming out. 10/10 - Golden Gem :) |

| Damn I wish it was longer, Kintaro is so epic, it was a good anime I don't regret watching it at all ! |
 |
| It was a ok show. Assuming when it was made it really attracted new fans as well as old ones. 6/10 |
| It’s a pretty funny series, I would try to read the manga but a lot of people are saying to me to not touch it and to pretend it doesn't exist, so I'm not sure anymore xD |
