THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------

Even though she has the eyes of "frozen squid", she's not a yandere character! There were quite a few jokes about this in the episode.

This is a typical low-budget OAD that are accompnied with manga volume, but I was mildly surprised by the fact that the show was directed quite well and had plenty of yuri and yandere jokes in it.

Oh, I also loved Kana-chan's voice with silent Morita-san. It reminded me of the library girl from Kami Nomi as they are voiced by the same person. Anyway, I hope the show gets more attention as it's a pretty good slice-of-life anime in my opinion.

Yuri Spoiler Alert!

Well, that was actually pretty funny and cute. I lol'd at the "I wouldn't mind being reborn as a girl" moment... which is pretty close to what I would think as well if I saw that first half-yuri scene. Anyway, let's hope the manga gets more popularity so we can have more.

This was a pretty funny episode. They better make more OVA's. Those two guys are always thinking something bad when it's not actually happening.

This anime automatically is win. I'm a lot like Morita; easily distracted, doesn't do well with criticism, often described by 'strangers' as sad-looking, and overall nice and compassionate. By the way, awesome first episode, looking forward for more.

This, I'm gonna watch definitely.

Morita turns me on.

Reminds me a lot of Shiori just like people are saying. Unfortunately, there is no Keima in this anime that will insult her, to force her to speak. The "nyaa" in the end is hnnnng inducing.

Wow, that was a very nice surprise. Should be titled "Moerita-san wa Mukuchi" :3

Oh, and I really enjoyed those two guys' commentary

I was expecting this to be some typical slice of life moe but no, I was a bit surprise. Morita was very adorable, she won the anime for me. I might actually consider to read the manga. I also got to mention that I love the VAs for this.

This was way more enjoyable as a slice-of-life schoolgirl comedy than an overbearing Nichijou. I love Kana Hanazawa so much, too. I'm glad I watched this. It really should be a TV series.

Actually, she reminds me of Sawako, I wonder what would happen if they're both classmates. XD

This crappy budget show is way much and much better than Nichijou and A-Channel combined.

I very much enjoyed this episode, I found it so easy to relate to Morita which made the show very enjoyable. During my high school career, I've found myself in almost all of the same situations and reacted in pretty much the same ways.

This show is great, I can't wait for the series to start.
The "muramura" was funny. And about the "frozen squid", I haven't laughed so hard in a while.

I dislike this show, more like OVA by now.
So idk, if i'll even bother with TV Show, since I didnt laughted not even once while watching OVA, it was so boring that i started droling at some point (10+m) ... so yeah, not for me.

The second OVA was released a few days ago. It was bundled with the fifth volume of the manga.

I laughed @ the beginning. It definitely wasn't the typical start of an episode. Story starts now! Mm, I guess the OP song is okay, nothing too special though imo.

Dat yuri scenes. What is she looking @?

Double kiss on cheek. How cute :3

5/10. Unfortunately, it didn't get too much of my attention at all.

OP: Animation - 2.7/5, Song - 4.4/5

This is on Nichijou level of humor!! I thought this show dont give me hope but I was wrong.

Studio Gram? Havent heard that.

Mayu thinks before she speaks. She is same as me.

I laughed at repetitive yuri moments and those boys reaction is omoshiroi!

How many times Mayu dad going to cheat her? LOL.

Morita is silent but she is pretty interesting character.

I wont mind watching the series of this. I want more!!

ED: Animation - 2.3/5, Song - 2.9/5

4.5/5

Well, nice to see more moments with Mayu.. But I also think that commentator feels redundant..
lol, Mayu's smiles.. So damn evil.. ;P
I wonder, if Mayu's dad is cheating or not.. I don't know.. If they make up every time, I maybe think that he's not then?.. But no real info, really, to confirm or not confirm anything..
These Mayu's cookies look nice.. Now I want cookies like that.. ;P
Well, they taste bad, it seems.. But well, they look appetizing..
Lap pillow.. Also in school swimsuit.. Too good.. ;P
