| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ----------------------------------------  Decent start so far imo. The OP song seems to be lighthearted but wow, that's a lot of cows XD Seems like most of the main characters are introduced. Whoa, knife scene. Well, it censored though with the chickens. Poor chickens lol It's all about the eggs and it looks delicious! |
 |
| Headless chicken is censored LOL |
| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
| Good start to what people(Including me) are expecting to be a pretty good series due to the author behind it and acclaim the manga has gotten The timing of those chickens getting their heads cut off with blood spattering everywhere and the censoring was just too funny |
Poor chickens |
|
| this is pretty awesome. the premise i was iffy about when i read it but loveed this ep. did anyone notice similar designs from fma to this series? thought his roommates looked like gluttony and kimblee, the coach looked like armstrong lol |
Dont bother replying to my posts in forums, dont check them afterwards. |
| A decent start. |
 |
| It was OK. A modest impact compared to any of the Moyashimon series, with a focus on Dairy Studies. ... I love blue cheese and green cheese... Cheese and yogurt in general... Anyway, I completely understand that Hachiken guy. Will not run 20 km at 5 in the morning for the hell of it. What is Connie doing here? :P |
| i've been waiting. this one's great. but i wonder why only 11 episode EDITED i've been waiting since i've read the manga. this one kinda brought me down. the manga is great, but i think the anime is not too good. the art is mediocre. that's fine. but the punchline upbringing isn't strong. the scene that should be laughed at didn't do as fine as manga. |

| Can something this tasty come out of an ass! Lol .... Exact Reason why I'm a vegetarian chops chicken head |
 |
| I'm getting a Honey and Clover kind of feel about this. I hope it goes in a similar way. It's definitely unique already so that's already nice |
| -Nothing can stay unchanged. Even so, can you still keep on loving this place? -Be still my soul; when change and tears are past, all safe and blessed we shall meet at last. |
| Loved the first episode, A-1 pictures seemed to be doing awesome with this :D The animation was great, hope it doesn't lose its quality! AND AN OP BY MIWA!? SO MUCH WIN. forholywar said: i've been waiting. this one's great. but i wonder why only 11 episode I'm sure its going to be (at least hopefully) a two cour season :O |
| I'm loving this! The whole time I was just smiling XD Seeing Gin no Saji being animated is just great. The OP and ED were really nice and relaxing, didn't know that miwa was singing the OP. Nice first episode, I was laughing as much as I did when I read the manga. The calf chewing on Hachiken's clothes, the headless chicken, the horse chewing on Hachiken's head...hilarious. So far, so good. I also liked some of the relaxing bgm. jugann said: forholywar said: i've been waiting. this one's great. but i wonder why only 11 episode I'm sure its going to be (at least hopefully) a two cour season :O It is two cour but the second part airs in winter season http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=626869 |
| Ahhh that was great. I missed Arakawa's humour, I laughed a lot. I'm back to the situation in which I like all the characters. This usually happens with what Arakawa writes. I can't wait for the next episode, I really enjoyed this first episode. 5/5 |
| Wow that was really good. They adapted the atmosphere really nicely :) All the VAs are really fitting. Damn now that I'm watching it from the beginning I can feel how much Hachiken developed as a character. Lol'd so much at the scene where the guy chopped the chicken so casually and blood spurt on them XD Then his egg-anus trauma XD And "Are they speaking in code???" XDXDXD |
 |
| This is very enjoyable! Granted, Arakawa Hiromu is my favourite mangaka and FMA:B is my favourite anime so coming into this I had extremely high expectations. This first episode has definitely met those expectations. It has a nice heartwarming and humorous atmosphere. |
| Now this was hilarious. The chicken beheading was epic. Great first episode. |
 |
| That was much more better than what I expected! 5/5 for this episode! |
| Sukima Switch! CHECK! haha, that was funny, my thursday is going to be a funny one : this and servant X service! :) |
| Once I learned what it was about I was like "Bah screw this..." but I decided to watch it anyways. Can say I was not disappointed, this starting off as a great show. |
| Well that wasnt half bad.So happy to hear Sakuma Switch again ;_; |
 |
| Dat chicken. And omg dem eggs. I really didn't think much about where exactly eggs came from, but my reaction is the same as Hachiken's lol. This show surprised me. I didn't think much of it going into the first ep but I actually enjoyed it. |
 |
| It was pretty fun. Looking forward to seeing more. But I kinda want to read the manga instead since it's by Arakawa. |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| I'm really happy to watch an anime adaption of one of my favorite manga, and it looks like it'll be a decent adaption. I hope the animation quality stays up. |
 |
| Nice, I like this one. |
| They cut the chicken's head off!!! I enjoyed this episode a lot. Definitely gonna keep watching this. |
 |
| As a learner of Japanese I freaking loved this: lots of new farming-related vocabulary, elements of the local dialect (the one I noticed so far is the particle "-be") and, most importantly, readily available Japanese subs! Together with the chicken anus lecture, I can honestly say that I learned something today! Oh, and the humour was enjoyable as well. 5/5 |
| Loving the BGM and the ED especially. I laughed so hard when Tamako was flying in the air, and Hachiken tried to save her but he started flying too. xD I really hope we find out more about Hachiken's past in the coming episodes, I'm really interested. Overall, I enjoyed this episode a lot. It was fun, cute, and really felt like the "start of an adventure". :) The animation is simple, but it's pleasing to the eye and nice to watch. I am a city girl, but I really didn't understand Hachiken's crazy aversion to eggs coming from the anus. Or cloetus or whatever. >__>" I would have eaten it all the same. xP But gosh, are these guys brutes. No culture clubs? I would die; I'm soo clumsy. Oh, and HachikenxAki would be a cute couple! Hope he joins the Equestrian club. :D |

| Entertaining first ep. Reminds me vaguely of Honey and Clover. 8/10 |
VanishingKira said: parfaited said: No you don't have to read anything else by her.This is separate from anything else she's done. I know this is separate from everything else she's done,I just meant I don't really see anything here,other than her fame that's causing the hype.I'm about to download the episode to check it out,but not expecting much. Hm it could be her fame, it could not be. When the manga first came out after she finished FMA, a lot of people didn't like it because it was so different from FMA. It's not even that hyped I don't think? I personally love it because I find it funny, educational in some ways, and I also love slice of life. Also, it's not everyday that you come across a farming manga (and I guess now anime). If you don't end up enjoying this, it's probably because you aren't in the target audience. |
| @forholywar: use spoiler tags :/ |
| ok art is not the best part of this, had some time adjusting to their voices but I liked it :D they included those "informational pieces" maybe more than in manga but it's fine. Being Hachiken is suffering and they shown well Tamako personality :) |
| Not as bad as I thought it would be, still uninteresting so far.. 6/10 |
 |
| Hachiken's voice is very different than what I imagined when I was reading the manga but I'm getting used to it. Silver Spoon is different from the fast-paced, action-packed Full Metal Alchemist but it still has what Arakawa does best: diverse and interesting characters all with their own quirks and idiosyncrasies, a world you can immerse yourself into, a peak into the agricultural lifestyle, and of course, humor. Arakawa-style. And there will be food. Lots of tasty food. vonPeterhof said: As a learner of Japanese I freaking loved this: lots of new farming-related vocabulary, elements of the local dialect (the one I noticed so far is the particle "-be") and, most importantly, readily available Japanese subs!

I replayed those parts to catch some of the vocabulary used in the conversation. |

| A good author leaves the audience enough material to be satisfied with, yet yearning for more. |
| Nice change of pace from the other anime this season. Actually smiled a few times and ALMOST laughed out loud. Sort of. Tamako is the ugliest girl I've seen in anime in quite some time |
 |
 Best out of context line |
| This show is awesome. I got a feeling it will be one of the best show this summer. |
| Huh that was one hell of a day. Good start. |
 |
| lol Hachiken reminds me of myself a bit with the being tired all the time and no stamina. xD Only difference is I've been around farm animals all my life and I actually took agricultural classes in high school. Although we learned more about how to operate the shop's machinery than we did about livestock and breeds. xD That being said this will probably be one of my favorite anime of the season along with ServantxService and Free! |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| Fun stuff so far. I'll be sticking to this one. The agricultural theme mixed with comedy is pretty amusing. |

| Decent episode. But some sound effects were missing... it felt wierd. |
| He didn't know chicken eggs came out their anus? Really? I'm gonna have a hard time liking this character... for the rest, it was good, but felt kinda rushed. |
Frontalbrise said: Best out of context line this! Honestly wasn't even planing on picking this up, since it sounded like something I wouldn't enjoy. But I thought the first Ep was pretty good. Especially him freaking out about Eggs was awesome. |
 |
| He seems to be pretty much a city boy who has never thought about the food on his plate. The students remind me of all the farmer's kids who went to my high school (our family farm was too small at 320 acres to make an economic go of it so that option wasn't open for me or my brothers)--totally focused on what they needed to know to take over the business. I don't have an issue with where eggs come from, I do have an issue with the living conditions of the chickens who produce them (and the other animals in our food chain), so it was nice to see Keiji comment on that. |
Please don't feed the trolls! In my next life I want to collide at the corner with the cute transfer student carrying a piece of toast in her mouth...rodac |
| i have a feeling if i watch this i might want to become a vegetarian. ignorance is bliss... |
