| In what way is this a Shounen |
MrSoMaad said: In what way is this a Shounen In the way that you need to educate yourself on how demographics work. Shounen isn't a genre, nor is it a term relating the content of something. So, in what way is this a shounen? In the fact that it's published in a shounen magazine because its target audience is teen males. That's the full factual answer and anything else is opinion. |

Amarrez said: Steve Jobs? Died of cancer? Lots of crab references? heh Oh is that why??? I was wondering why the OP is full of crabs!! The "news" parts went by so fast that I didn't pay attention to it the first time. And Wooser! Should've known when I saw Wooser...lol that one sure had a ton of jokes (half that I didn't understand). That was a nice episode though. I really love the backgrounds, very slice of life like and overall relaxing. I was sad after Yama no Susume ended, but hey, another slice of life shorts this season! |
| Wow I actually really like this. :D Best short of this season so far. Well it really can only be compared to Sparrow's Hotel XD and this is much better by far. |

Yakirin said: Why do people complain about shorts being short? ...they're shorts. Normally I'm all for shorts. this one just felt too short, with the Op and Ed taking up time. hoping the next episode gets things going |
vampko said: Yakirin said: Why do people complain about shorts being short? ...they're shorts. Normally I'm all for shorts. this one just felt too short, with the Op and Ed taking up time. hoping the next episode gets things going Yeah I second this, OP and ED was like more than 50% of the show. The art was so amazing too, it deserved to be longer. I suppose they didn't have the budget though. |

| It's so kawaii~ ! \(^-^)/ It was a short episode.. but other than that, I'm guessing that the next episode might be longer. I hope so! :3 |
| looks cute. I'll keep watching. |

| > four-minute time slot > let's do an OP AND and ED!!! Though, in the credits the ED song was called an insert song... so maybe they'll cut that out of future episodes? (Why in the first episode, though........) |
Umeko said: > four-minute time slot > let's do an OP AND and ED!!! Though, in the credits the ED song was called an insert song... so maybe they'll cut that out of future episodes? (Why in the first episode, though........) Well most of these 3~5 minute shows do have an OP and ED - it's just usually they are only around 20 seconds long at most instead of cutting into the time so much, Mr.Leepik4chanmemearrows. |
|
| idk, maybe I just haven't seen enough shorts, but all the ones that are five minutes or less I've seen have had either an OP or an ED, not both. (Two- to five-second title card and an ED, sure, but I wouldn't consider a title card an OP.) Senyu had an OP on the Nico streams, but presumably that was only because they didn't have the time restraint there. |
| Very cute, sweet and WAFFy. A very nice feel good episode. I like it. |
| In 9/10 cases, the worst thing about an anime is its fandom. |
| aww man this is too short!! I loved those 2:30 minutes of it though! lol. And aww they thought she was in elementary, i'm guessing she's really tiny. But I am looking forward to this. WIsh it was longer though! |
 |
| This is CRAB anime not CRAP anime !! Seriously, again we have a short anime this season with really good sakuga (the last one is Yama no Susume) and I think the kind of story in Aiura suits a short anime format well even though I won't mind a bit longer length (say 15min). |

| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
Romedbaumann said: kuuderes_shadow said: Nothing much but seems nice enough. It's only 4 minutes long, and a quarter of that is the OP. The Ending takes up another quarter, I wish it'd be longer. Yup |
| If strength is justice, then is powerlessness a crime? |
| the crabs, man. Whats with the crabs? loldatbackgroundscenery |
Alone on a Friday night? Remember that DIO did nothing wrong! |
| I love it.. |
 |
| Why are all the best anime shorts lately? We definitely need more anime like that with a normal 24 minute frame. |
| Nothing really happend (I mean like, less than in most slice of life XD) but still a bit enjoyable (6/10 for this episode). I think that it's strange for a 4 minute show to have both 1 minute long opening AND ending :-O |
 |
| What was up with all the crabs in the OP? Crabs set aside, it was a sweet first episode. A shame so much of it was spent on OP and EP though, I'd have liked to see some more interaction between the girls. |

|
| Watching this....I don't know what else but to comment on the OP..... I want Crab Cakes |
| cute. |
| 講廢話,被撞到. |
| It took me far too long to figure out how crabs and cancer were related. *just now figured it out* |
| i loveeeeeeeeed this but its way too short smh |
| There was Wooser in there and that's the only good thing |
 |
Umeko said: It took me far too long to figure out how crabs and cancer were related. *just now figured it out* Yeah I think it's gone over most peoples heads. I didn't notice at first either, probably for the better I'm guessing it may offend some people :P |
|
| This pulled at my heart strings for some reason. I was sad when it ended LOL |
| Lmao dat Steve in the opening. Loved the episode. |
 |
| I hope the episodes get longer. This is probably the only short i would consider continuing other than Hetalia and Nyoron Churuya san...however I really like this one. Maybe ep1 was supposed to be like that, as it will continue later in a high school setting where the episodes would be 20mins long... This is the first anime I've seen that actually started a civil war i my head because Aiura's animation fiercely rivals KyoAni's up to the point where I would almost, almost say they are on the same level as #1 in my head. Only Hyouka and Tamako Market's animation would give me second thoughts. |

| I'm pissed this is so short! |
Vergelanimefan said: I hope the episodes get longer. They won't. That would cut into DD Hokuto no Ken's timeslot. |
| It was so short & it got me wanting to see more x) Most likely imma put this anime on hold till the season is completed to continue watching it. Im totally interested in this anime ^.^ |
Umeko said: Vergelanimefan said: I hope the episodes get longer. They won't. That would cut into DD Hokuto no Ken's timeslot. They could use more of the airing time for the actual episodes though, instead of wasting so much on the OP and ED. |

With how odd it was, I think it's possible the OP might change every episode and become it's own 'part' of the show in doing so. The ending was said to be an 'insert' song I think too? If that's true then the ED will likely definitely be doing that. I guess I'd be okay with that. |
|
| Yeah, the ED of ep.1 is listed as an "insert song" so probably we will see a proper ED from the next episode on. |

| I only remember this Anime has something to do with Crab after the episode finished. The girl's thigh here was guilty pleasure for me xD |
| O god, that Steve Jobs joke <3 I wonder if the OP will change later on? This was surprisingly relaxing, much like Yama no Susume. I didn't expect to have another wonderful short anime so early. |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |
| omg i really like that art. visuals look awesome |
| Nice chara desing. But nothing really happened, this need to be longer. |
| this was so cute! i didn't expect it to be so short though! |

| Being a fan is like having a penis. Its nice to be proud of it But don't pull it out in public and wave it in other's faces Kyurem Black. Kyurem White. Together they are Pretty Kyurem. |
| Steve Jobs? Crabs? Cancer ? Wut? Oooooook. Anyway... lovely art. |
