I think my definition for funny is different. I don't expect to laugh out loud. Smiling is enough. For comparison, some people don't like Garfield, they think it's not funny. But it's creative and witty and that is what's important for me

I watched this because the shikanoko song was catchy and I like comedy. But I watched a few episodes and I didn't laugh a single time. Maybe a few smiles here and there. Like I get some of the jokes but they just weren't funny enough. Does anyone think this show is funny? Or is it just more of like a silly slice of life with a deer girl

maybe it's comedy isn't your type

I don't think the show is funny ngl, but I wouldn't say it's bad it's just decent/ok as a comedy and show overall. It's a character driven show but none of the characters are that interesting, doesn't have much of a story but I'm not really counting it as a factor, the animation looks lazy for a wit studio adaptation, the soundtrack is ok but gets repetitive, the comedy is mid at best, it's like the most 6-7/10 show. That's the only way to describe it, tons of ppl call this peak, but I doubt that they even know what peak means.

I think overall people found episode 1 funny, that's why it had a 8+ rating. But as episode 2 and 3 came out, more people watched it and many (including me) did not find these subsequent episodes as good as episode 1. That's why the score has dropped.

As someone said previously, this is probably best enjoyed after getting high or drunk.

Episode 1 was very funny and had a consistent chaotic energy throughout, episode 2 and 3 felt like all the character dynamics sort of ran its course.

I have no problem with this anime. I find it entertaining. The type of humor is crass and simplistic. Even a child would laugh at it by simply looking at the visuals and art style with the audio on mute. My only complaint about this anime, unfortunately, is that it is trying too hard to be a meme factory so much it's missing its mark. Most jokes need to be set up and take root, but when you're going for that -15 second window to be a meme so it can go viral, the joke/punchline becomes rushed. Nichijou, Azumanga, and Asobi, for example, have some of the most well placed and timed jokes that took time to set up in order to cook and deliver. BTW, these anime were before the era of viral memes.

"Manga readers are annoying, all they do is complain or spoil the anime we discuss in an anime forum.
They should really do their whining at manga forums.

This. Except, personally, I often find creatively weird shows funny because I can’t help but imagine the kind of people and situations that got the show through production in the first place.

Some scenes can be funny, I'll watch it as a slightly more unhinged CGDCT type of show. A lot of the reactions don't work for me, there's too much of the blonde girl saying "HUH" or just shouting, several scenes would have been a lot funnier with better timed/animated reactions. It reminds me a lot of Kamonohashi Ron no Kindan Suiri where the comedy was pretty much nonexistent for me, because the reactions were just shouting, and it always felt like the timing was off for some reason. It's hard to explain why something is or isn't funny, you just know when it works and when it doesn't.

Ultimately, this just makes me want to go back and finally finish watching Nichijou.
If you reply back to me and I never respond, I lost interest and don't care. Sorry about that.

Episode 1 was good, episode 2 however was the definition of meh when it comes to comedy.
@DarkLeafNinja Yeah, I don't remember laughing once at episode 2, while I burst out laughing when she just destroyed the doorway in the classroom with her antlers and the debris smashed 3 people in the face, and then the rest of the class doesn't react at all until they hear the word delinquent lol. I daresay that episode 3 wasn't much better then the 2nd, but I laughed once or twice, I guess the show is fine as just an unhinged CGDCT.

I think this show could've benefitted from a shorter run time.

Like specific segments are funny but by the halfway mark you are already checking out maybe because you get used to the randomness. Also sometimes it does feel like the stretch stuff to fit a certain runtime ruining the comedic timing but that might just be me.

I'm not saying it should've been Teekyuu levels of short, that shit goes so fast you start thinking what substances were the writters on while making it, but maybe 12 minute episodes would've been enough.

I understand it’s not for everyone but man I’m a sucker for ‘slice of weed’ shows like this. It might not beat the holy trinity of Nichijou, Joshikousei no mudazukai and Asobi Asobase but I’m sticking with it because we haven’t had a show with silly dumb humor for too long. 😂

Some parts of this show I enjoyed quite a bit (like Nokotan entering the classroom in ep1 and Koshi doing the Bully Maguire dance in ep3) others not so much (the quiz segment in ep2... that was hard to watch)

Series like this has the tendency to lose steam really fucking quickly after the initial buzz and intrigue about its brainrot is lost and you just get used to it, not as shocking. The promotion been way better than the actual show itself since it aint looking like havin a long shelf life where it can maintain being funny and fresh for a long time. Got old too quickly.

I like nonsense humor, but idk why, this one isn't clicking too much with me... I feel like there's many scenes where the outcome is kinda predictable, and I think nonsense works better with the shock of completely random bs throwed at you

Im usually all for comedy and dumb humor but I agree that this show is not funny at all. At least to me. The humor is kinda forced and generic, pretty boring to me. I dropped the show after the third episode. But to everyone who likes it, enjoy and have fun.

It's not easy to explain why a specific kind of humor doesn't work on me but I'll try. I think the show is lacking a sense of normality that would contrast with the absurd situations that happen in it. And for an anime that tries so hard to be all crazy and over the top, I find it pretty dull and predictable. Finally the show focuses way too much on Torako's reactions to the situations rather than the situations themselves, which are the funny parts. It's making things repetitive and undermining the jokes.
Also the voice acting is not that great.

i think it is how its adapted for me, the jokes drag out for too long due to director raising up the absurdity and ultimately the jokes often ends up being plain unfunny. thats why comedy 4komas are always hard to adapt but if done properly we get gems like BTR or machikado mazoku

Watching the first 3 episodes I laughed a total of 0 times. Might've smiled once.

The whole time I was just bored or annoyed and felt sorry for Torako.

I'm sure it would be funnier at Teekyuu speed. 🤔

Did not laugh at all after two episodes, so I’m passing. Maybe I just don’t “get” it. That’s fine. I don’t need to. I have to laugh naturally. I can’t force something to be funny or interesting.

@Animillion I've never been "bothered" by that trope, but it almost always comes across as fake and unfunny.

@LostSpectre It’s my least favourite trope, followed closely by abusive Tsunderes . Lesbian yanderes have ruined my enjoyment of certain series like Komi, Love After World Domination, and others.

It's brain rot content, not everyone enjoy it, like i find that the 2nd episode is very uncanny to watch, irl if a school show all one specific student's private informations and images (even nsfw one), that student would be depressed as hell (might CM). But in the anime since it's a peak brain rot so on one really cares

This show is terrible. I have watched 3 episodes back to back and didnt laught a single time. Even noncomedy animes are funnier than this one.

This must have gotten a lot of hype because of the openning song and deer girl because the anime itself sucks.

The opening song is the best thing to come out of this anime. Couldn't finish the second episode, the jokes were just not hitting for me.
The humor kinda reminds me of Pop Team Epic.
