Fuuka Episode 1 Discussion

i dont understand how anyboy could consider this an instant classic, especially judging from the first episode alone, because i fould it to be littered with cliches and unikeable characters. but well, anyone has their own taste and reasons for liking certain things, so i wont criticize you for it, but i would like to know why you think that way.

Haha, I felt like as soon as I submitted my post, someone would have to say something about my choice of words.

I guess "instant classic" isn't quite the right terminology, but something about it was refreshing, especially at the end when Fuuka leaves an open invitation to a relationship. I guess I was just happy that the author didn't purposely draw things out like many others do. Where everything would go wrong in most stories, Fuuka's strong character would make it another opportunity for the two to connect. Although the succession of events was a tad unnatural and some may argue way too fast, Fuuka is in fact a very odd girl. And as odd as she is, her character didn't feel manufactured or fake. I feel like her character reflects that of some girls today (VERY FEW girls, but definitely some that are out there) who are outliers in society. I may be (and probably am) totally off base with this, but at least that's how I see things now - until I see the next episode.

appreciate you sharing your thoughts with me dude, i would agree thats its kinda refreshing that the relationship here doesnt take 20+ episodes to get to the point where its at at the end of the episode here, but on the other hand there are enough series who also do that. Kuzu no Honkai is an example even from this season, but KnH has amazing atmosphere, art and interesting characters to go with it while this show... well i already layed out my thought about it briefly. i cant even remember much from it tbh, even thought its probably not even two months ago that ive watched the first episode.
