Welp, after Silver Spoon and Non Non Biyori it didn't take long to run rural comedies into the ground. Seriously, the only time I laughed was the scene with the guy wriggling inside the dakimakura (okay, the idol's other name - Kinoshita Ringo, "apple under the tree", - made me chuckle). Apparently the main attraction of the series, our proverbial fish out of water, has only just arrived, so I'll have to stick around for the second episode to find out if this is worth continuing (well played, show). Although if the number of ongoing series I pick up this season ends up exceeding 25 I'll drop this one without hesitation, like I did with Nobunaga the Fool, ImoCho and Witch Craft Works.

Edit: just realized that I'm actually considering dropping a show where Yukarin is an idol, Marina Inoue's character is nicknamed "Oppai", Chiwa Saitou is a Stepford-smiling crazy teacher and HanaKana speaks Kansai-ben. How the fuck did they manage to make that tedious to sit through?!

Genuinely liked this, not too often main characters are farmers, teacher was funny as well.

Wish fulfillment at its peak.

I found a combination of Gin no Saji with caricatures of Baka to Test but also, it was very entertaining episode in several ways.

OLE!

I'm going to keep watching in case I get to hear KanaHana talking dirty.
That pink haired character seems to have hots for the glasses guy, her reactions were absolutely adorable.
That teacher's photo caught me off guard, never would've imagined that the fan service would be so intense.

The show is pretty much a throwaway but wasn't expecting all the farming crap. I guess they added the fanservice to get away from the boredom of farming. The reason she came to the school is because he sent her vegetables or something? That would be a stupid reason.

Thoughts:
0:11 crappy song

4:08 seeing a chibi talk about farming passionately is a red flag for boredom

8:32 u can't bring cattle inside a classroom

10:38 I WANT A TEACHER LIKE BECKY OMFG

14:06 wasn't expecting the idol to quit… interesting early twist

18:12 Kousaku's touching her face…

21:15 wtf??? Too much oiled teacher… it even showed the milk canister

------------
Overall:
1. ED song sucked.

2. 1st half was boring until the crazy teacher was introduced, 2nd half was mildly interesting

3. Voice acting is super good. Graphics are music are passable. Characters are way too hyper like they be smokin dat crack. Story is somewhat interesting. Comedy, romance & school genres are usually good, so I'll keep watching. Ep1: 5/10

I was actually surprised at how funny this was! Plus their are a lot of "dirty" moments everywhere! Lol that teacher is something else man turning all yandere and what not. Plus that picture she showed the class :O haha wtf?

Also I had no idea sending someone a cucumber was a crime but I can see why xD haha

As someone pointed out before, the whole point of the series starts now that Kinoshita Ringo AKA Yuka-tan is here. But the whole plot of the series is predictable:

- Famous Idol turns out to be an antisocial bitch.
- MC likes her and tries to get closer to her but suffers rejection. Cheap jokes go here.
- Crisis comes as the reason of her retirement comes to light and MC "saves" her.
- Idol becomes interested in MC. Tsundere phase goes here.
- They become a couple, or not and they drag it for S2.

The end.

Still, this will be a fun watch since I'm a big sucker for moeblob stuff. I just had to watch this with that promo art.

basically Silver Spoon with an idol and way bigger amount of morons - at least they have teacher which shows them what is their future, this is important for proper development.

It had funny parts so maybe I will be watching it, nothing special but entertaining.

I think they did a good job with the teacher. She's a 40 year old who isn't married yet and thus is desperate. Seems to fit with her awkward/cringey depressive monologues, unlike some other teachers of her kind...

I was expecting a awesome anime since I read the synopsis and saw the PV and... I think it will really be a awesome anime. Comedy and I'm probably romance in the future, high expectations for this anime.

Yeah, I like random comic scenes in animes too, it makes them more "heavier". The teacher is probably an idiot
I didn't understand why you said that Ringo is probably crazy.

Kousaka's monologue was fucking hilarious, also:
KAMI WA SHINDA.

dat Nietzsche's reference.

I loved this first episode and I loved the gags, it kinda reminded me BakaToTest.
Just checked, it's the same Director.

5/5 and I will continue it of course.
The voice actors did a MARVELOUS job here. Especially Kousaka's VA.

You're right that's predictable but I think it doesn't really matter, since it's a show that is supposed to make you laugh. We'll get very little of romance if this is truly like BakatoTest.

This just took the lead of my favorite anime so far this season. Will it hold, we will have to see because Noragami was pretty good as well. A lot of interesting characters, and as long as this has a story I think it will be pretty good.

Disregarding the fan service, I thought this episode was very amusing. Basic plot nothing over the top. Will stick around for a little bit. I think Oppai did a SnK salute, could be wrong. Oh well.

The Funimation subs for this show are terrible. They seriously can't take five minutes to proofread the script and at least fix typos and lines that don't make any sense? I hope a fansub group does their own TL of this.
