I have low expectation for the show, I start watching with an open mind...

by 8th minute mark, I stop caring for what they're saying... My mind go blank and just watch their mouth moves...

by half way mark, I almost cried. It's still not over... That is the longest 12 minutes I've ever experienced...

When the ending played, I close it...

Right now, I'm still a little bit... damaged from what I've watched. This simply can't get any worse... Even Mars of Destruction didn't do this to me...

However... I'll foolishly watch episode 2... Just so I can convince myself that I gave it a fair go...

T_T

Oh god... So horrible. The thought that I'll watch another episode brought makes me chuckle, the type of chuckle that I do when I'm in absolute despair/given up and about to go insane...

Yeah really pitiful of Mahiro on that one.

Main character has the same type of squeemish nature as I do. Well, his is slightly different as I don't try to hide the fact that it's blood.

Awesome beginning to the anime

I'm actually 8 episodes ahead of this, and went back in time to figure out how it all got started.
And from what i gather, Nyaruko's Nyarthalopian form will never come out because, like Holo's wolf form, it is simply far too impractical to use.

So basically we have a cute alien girl and that's the end of the discusson.
And snce you are all past this by now: I looked up Cthuga and Hatsur's actual forms as well as Nyaralathotep.
Of the 3 Nyaruko is the only one that's even remotely intimidating from where I'm standing.

So i'm going to brazenly and moronically ignore all the warnings.
Have fun guys!

I don't understand the joke with that fork. I mean, Mahiro clearly got 2 reasons to not stabbing Nyaruko with whatever fork:
1. She is so damn cute (man.. I watched this show only for seeing her)
2. She is the one who protects him

Seriously, what's going on his head? Everytime he's doing whatever kind of harrassment to her, I got angry.. Because of that right now I have to stop at the middle of episode just to write this.. >:(

The fast-forward part made me lol I know the pain of long explanations. "It's not a crime if no one finds out" xD And I loved how he recorded it too.

I'm somewhat surprised to see Nyaruko is infatuated with Mahiro from the get go. I was expecting it to be some sort of trick, but they didn't waste any time. And I'm not complaining ^_^

The pokemon reference was pretty funny as well. Not a bad first episode. Let's see if they can keep this up.

Nice first episode, liked the OST in the beginning. My first impression on Nyaruko is that she is totally awesome and she's totally ignoring the topic xD. Fast forward on the introduction and Mahiro has some fork skill. That CQC is quite unfair *cough* Kick in the crutch *cough* and that poké-thing hilarious.

Okay, if you have any background knowledge about the Cthulhu Mythos, you realize just how much balls the dude has. Imagine Nyarlko being Slenderman or something, and add some extra insanity and cosmic horror story to spice it up. I wouldn't want to shag her either :p

I loved the disregard for the fourth wall though. "We'll be taken down if we go any further", and especially the "it's just ink" one were, though old, pretty funny.

In short, I' finish this, late to the party or not xD

No, no, no. The problem is not that he needs to "man up" - he is not a weenie like [insert harem-protagonist of choice here]. The problem is that he is Tsu N De Re[/size]. Also, Nyarko is...initially I wanna say a class-A pervert (sit down Hayate no I did not call you), but upon further review it's more that she just doesn't have two fucks to give. She knows what she wants to do and she's not going to let anything stop her.

I'm going to repeat this because of how novel and noteworthy it is. The main character in this series is:

  1. Male.
  2. Obviously going to end up a harem protagonist.
  3. Not a weenie.
  4. Tsundere.

Name one other series that does that.

Note: Mahiro's being a non-weenie does not extend to his apparent lack of resistance to weird. I mean, seriously, he lost SAN over that?

I'm starting it for real (seen a few eps here and there already) because I haven't had a good harem fix in a long while; it's Lovecraftian (and, as a bonus, routinely references Call of Cthulhu, which I've played), hilariously weird, and manic; has zero reverence for anything including itself; and throws both a Shirai Kuroko sort (ie somewhat violent and fixated on the main female) and what's either a gay guy or a very-androgynous girl into the harem. I approve of this.

kevsterr95 said:

I have trouble calling Nyarko "moe", myself. She's definitely cute in several different ways, but her inability to give a damn about much of anything (including modesty) outside of Mahiro, her job, and her otaku-bait push her way outside "moe" territory to me.

On the other hand, the same actress also played this:
and [b]THIS
IS
MOE!!![/b]

In fact, as far as I'm concerned, UD/Yuri defines moe. Play Gears of Destiny or find some of the few YouTube videos of it and you'll see what I mean. That voice. omg. Everytime she opens her mouth I either wanna cry or squee depending on whether she's UD (emo) or Yuri (cheerful) at the time.

OP's pretty cute, but you know who's even cuter? Yes, that's right! Mahiro!
Haha, just kidding. Of course it would be our crazy sadistic hyperactive yet amazing and lovely, Nyaruko! (^_^)

This has so much references. This is what I call "Entertainment!"
"Go get him Shantak-kun! Kill him good! Do it as brutally as possible!"
"Are you sure you work for a public safety organization?"

All I'm wondering now is why the Nightgaunts are after Mahiro specifically.
I’m always searching for something, for someone. This feeling has possessed me I think, from that day… That day when the stars came falling.

Okay, Nyarlathotep is so fucking amazing, but MC is a massive annoying bitch. Male tsundere are just so weird, especially when you fight back with... a fork.

Anyway, it was fun. I like Nyaruko trash style of fighting and humor. Gotta love also perverted and overly obscessed girl :D

It's like a bad joke.

"I have Cthulhu living with me, and she's a cute chipper high school girl who beats demonic aliens to death with her bare hands."

I have to wonder what drug-induced madness brought about this premise. That being said, it's too early to make any opinions on this show, but as I was watching, I greatly hoped that it wasn't a light novel adaptation and it was either an anime original or was based off a manga. Seeing it based on a light novel...I don't know. I don't want to generalize light novel adaptations, but I'm starting to recognize when an anime happens to be one, and it scares me.

i'm surprised this anime's touching on such serious subjects as human slave trade -w-
.....this will be nice research for possible RP scenarios .w.

also- seriously, darned otaku-within-anime characters -w-'

on the other hand, i'm rather put off about them being aliens, mh -w-'
i'd prefer alternative dimensions -.w-.'

i don't get the fork-thing tho -3-'
"What are your thoughts about her?"
"She's obnoxious, violent and annoying." <--should have been the right answer there -w-

"I'm so embarrassed i could get pregnant" <--that's a line i've never heard before _xD

seriously, why a fork ._.'?
