... By the way ... Are there any men in this world? There was this one guy in the classroom... |
| In 9/10 cases, the worst thing about an anime is its fandom. |

| Ikuhara is just too damn smart and symbolic for all these casuals, hmph :( GAO GAO GAO HachiKirra said: KLRG said: ... By the way ... Are there any men in this world? know ... I don't like guys in my yuri +1 Hope the girls and bears team up and slaughter the men XD |

HachiKirra said: KLRG said: ... By the way ... Are there any men in this world? know ... I don't like guys in my yuri quoted for truth. Got a lot of potential here. Hopefully the story starts to make more sense. Loving the art and characters though. |
| at first i was wondering why everyone is letting the symbolism go over their heads then i realized most of mal are in high school |
| The subs made this episode even more confusing then it already was... MFW "Everything is going to be daijoubu" |

| I'm not sure exactly how long I'll watch this, I wasn't exactly enthused with this episode. I'll check in again next week and decide after that. |
 |
| Yuricious... GAO GAO.... |
 |
| Art is kinda weird but I enjoyed it for the most part. Gao! Gao! |
 |
| This is an awkward start of the season. So lewd that i`m gonna die. ALL HAIL IKUHARA!!! |

| That was a bit of an overload, even by Ikuhara's standards. I'm not sold yet, but it was a decent episode. kikohunter said: Nice condescension. I think I get the general picture, but I'll gladly admit that I haven't connected every symbolic detail. There was a lot going on, too much for me to take in all at once, really.Are people really finding it hard to figure out the symbolism in this one episode? It's very simple though. |

| The anime is much better than I what expected. Good mix of comedy, yuri scenes. and a lot of licking. Also, have very cute characters, Ginko is my favorite. Better than any of non-action anime from last season. |
| Never before in my life that I realize how much I want a dancing little bear. |

| AOTY if you disagree you have shit taste |
| Personally? It's trying too hard with this yuri stuff, way too fucking hard, I can already tell you this would be a lot better without it, I still enjoy it whatever, nice music, OP and ED are pretty amazing. |
 |
| I also found it funny when they showed her shoe. "Guys, she lost her shoe, she's done for." |

| T'was a relatively decent first episode. Not the best, not the worst. Got some major Mawaru Penguindrum vibes. Looking forward to where this show will go. |
now playing :: tides of man - keep me safe  |
| Worst Ikuhara series so far is AOTY material... Hope he's adapting the manga into a movie or an OVA. |
| I don't understand a thing I just watched, so I will rate this show later. At least it's confusing enough for me to keep watching it for now. |
| wow this sucked.. dropped. |

Maybe then the series will be hard to watch for you lol. Yuri is one of the main themes of the series after all... I doubt it would work the same without yuri |
OwaruSekai said: A bit of "trivia" to help facilitate further interpretation. There are a lot of sexual innuendos being thrown around. Some less obvious than others. For example: 蜜/mitsu/honey, nectar - can refer to vaginal secretion. 蜜壷/mitsutsubo/honey jar - building upon your newly found knowledge - what could it possibly mean? (for the slightly mentally impaired - vagina). Also, "eating" in Japanese, like in English, can have a sexual connotation as well. Make of it what you will. I'll just leave this here. Love the OP. Yuriika and Mitsuko (and yes, she has the 'honey' kanji in her name). Also cool Escher style bird/lily pattern. So who else thinks Ginko and Lulu aren't the only bears in Arashigaoka? |

Lol yeah I also thought that image meant something yuri because of the way the honey dropped lol. YEAH! I think that those with Yuri in their last names are bears, considering the two bears we know have yuri in their last names: Yurishiro and Yurigasaki... So maybe Yurizono is also a bear? :OO |

| Oh boy, the Ikuhara is strong here. This should be fun at the very least. |

| Got surprised , this first episode was awesome! All those symbolisms <3 Those Forbidden Loves One of the best animes of this season, for sure. Expecting strong plot twists , starting with the bears and the "Invisible Storm" thing Moodie said: THEY ALREADY BEGUN |

Kittenpotpie said: What The Actual Fuck: The Show It's just Ikuhara doing an Ikuharaesque show in the most Ikuhara-est way Ikuhara shock! |

| I've never felt so cringey watching ANYTHING before. This show is so awful it's intriguing. I wonder if they can put a new spin on the "shingeki no kyojin" style plot they have going there. Overall, the episode is a bit of a mess, very weird. Like Mahou Shoujo Madoka, Akuma no Riddle and Utena just smashed right together. With much less coherence + some bears thrown in. The only thing I really enjoyed was "Kuma Shock!" - had me in fits xD |
