Aww, I thought this was cute. Not just the character designs but the way they introduced everyone and the setting, Meiro-machi.

There's a mixture of comedy, historical, and eh...awkward fan service. The animation style reminds me a little of Aiura. Looks like there's a little bit of teasing as well.


Fun show so far, Chiya is a cute cookie imo.

Chiya is quite the manic troublemaking girl I want to just hug her and Nina who's really cute and perfect almost like Chiya Ujimatsu from Gochiusa, also that has to be the most prettiest tea pouring in anime. My heart just turned into pure sugar. The animation style reminds me of several shorts I've seen and not so much what's seen in a full length anime.

If last season we had Keijo for the true ass-men, this winter we have Belly Fetish: The Anime

Pretty decent first episode, maybe a bit too much fanservice for a cute girls anime, but I thought the same about New Game and I still loved it. The setting and the rank system of the Urara's is original and can lead to a lot of great stuff, so I'm definitively looking forward for more.

Nono is a cute!

So did this air at 2 am January 6th like ANN claimed? "The anime will premiere on TBS on January 5 at 1:58 a.m. (effectively January 6 morning)"

Normally when I see a situation like that, it would be listed as "January 5th, 25:58" not 1 am. Usually 1:58 on Thursday means 1:58 on Thursday. But I see this thread was started pretty much around 2 AM on Friday Japan time.

AWWW. This girl is totally cute. Living in a tree, getting woke up by a ...raccoon? She greets the day with a huge smile and talks about Setsu. Omg. This is already so cute. Lately, whenever I see something cute, I see depressing stories. Maybe this won't be the same? The girls are adorable!!`` The white haired girl totally seems like an animal. Tarot reader? Oh. Does this girl have some sort of rabbit demon powers. USAMARO.
A'ight. Let's get this thing started. Girls at fifteen dream of becoming an Urara, a girl that pretty much tells fortunes and whatnot. Special powers. Yeah. OMG. THIS TOWN LOOKS LIKE A FESTIVAL. She's not from modern society. She's a Disney Princess. Already, she's making enemies and being framed. Don't worry. The animals will save her.What. She's showing her... wat. OOOH. THE LAW IS HERE. Saku. Awww. How polite. omg. These poses. HOW LEWD. HAHA. There aren't any dudes here, hm?
WHY DO YOU KEEp---oh. That's why. Maybe animals show their stomach when they're sorry? Another girl shows up after main character crashes into black-haired beauty. Pink bow has a lot of stuff and they show each other their papers. She had a paper for apprenticeship but oessn't know what it is. Setsu again. Omg. Pink bow is totally tsun. HAHAHA. SAKU. I LOVE YOU.
OH. Y'ALL JUST GOT BANISHED. OMG. ORANGE GIRL, NINA, makes an appearance. All of these cute girls, Saku. I don't know how you handle them, either. Natsume's, hm? Kon is black-haired beauty, Puu is pink bow, and Chiyo is mountain girl. The apprentices. I wonder if there's going to be more. Oh, Chiyo's goal is to find her momma. Aww.
OMG. THERE'S A FOUR ONE. NONO. OMGGGG. SHE'S SO CUTE. THAT HIGH VOICE. Oh, are those ears real. They just want to feed the poor animal.
WHOAHHH. We get to see some tea fortune being read in the first episode. Yeahhh. That's so pretty. OMGGG. CLASSES KON. OOOHHH. Kon falls into a hynoposis and calls on a fox, using kokkuri to get her medium. HAHA. Awww. Nono uses Chiya's hair to make her calm down. DOLL DIVINATION. HAHAHA. She is a ventriloquist. omg. I can see that as being somewhat creepy. OMG. IT IS. YEAH, MANG. I knew I saw tarot cards. HAHA.
Dude. We all thought that those ribbon parts were her ears. HAHA. At least I wasn't the only one. What. What are they doing. Ouija? OMG. POOR KON. HAHHA. CHIYA, dang. You pervert. HAHA. Noooo, Non, keep to your doll stuff. That doll will certainly come and haunt them. HAHA.
Saku is pretty much like the hot guy. Everybody wants senpai to notice her. HAHA. OMGGG. Saku is so adorable. THOSE GIRLS. OMG. HOW HOT.
wow. the ending theme is totally giving me that uhh.. one anime with the zombies feeling. the cutesy school one.

Very interesting set-up for a moeblob anime, with some really nice visuals to back it up. Comedy is pretty good as well. (minus some rather uncomfortable fanservice moments involving white-hair flipping skirts and stuff)

That last point (especially the fanservice angle) worryingly reminds me of what happened with Kuma Miko, another slice of life series from last year that happened to be kind of similar to this in a lot of ways though. Fortunately though I don't think this will end like that one did *shudders*.

I'm looking foward for series like this. 4-koma manga adaptation is always amusing me

But.. fanservice at eps 1 isn't good in my opinion

Hope it will be better for next episode

A very cute start! Gotta say I love the episode pretty much because of how moe and cutesy it was, and also I love the characters as well. Chiya tho has a fetish for freaking tummies which is adorable in a sense.

Let's see what are the other things for this series since I'm not watching that much, but at least I can pretty much go and relax myself.

I didn't mind Kuma Miko's fanservice a lot in a sense but I do get your point with the ending... except well, I think it was just mostly the script writer's fault because of the change (I'm not very aware of this) and the script writer or series composition did Amanchu from Summer, so perhaps it will be fine (for the moment being)

Very good start, I really enjoyed it.

The show is funny, adorable and all round just really fun to watch. Has a nice light hearted atmosphere and I'm gonna enjoy watching the girls interacting and having fun.

Chiya and Kon are my favorites for now, That show your tummy for apologizing routine is actually really amusing and leads to some good service. So, I'm not complaining. XD
The tea fortune telling felt really graceful while Kon's fortune telling had this air of mystery around it. I wonder what kind of feeling the fortune telling of the other girls will give off.

I suppose Chiya's fortune telling will have something to do with animals?
The scene at the end with the two girls fawning over the captain was really funny.

Looking forward to see the girls on their journey towards being Urara's.

Well that really cute for sure, talking about "young" mythical creatures. A little bit indecent, but I guess Chiya have no mean for that, she just haven't know anything about "that" yet. LOL

It's more of a fetish thing but I do get your point there. Though... there are series that does this thing too so it doesn't surprise me (I had to edit this a bit because I checked when you said about GochiUsa and I think I was wrong)
