| Erio wrapped in futon was hilarious. I just love how Meme acts like theres nothing weird going on. Makoto seems like a nice character along with Erio. |

| OH MY FUCKING (my apologies for the lack of a better word) GOD! I FUCKING (again) LOVE YOU SHAFT! This was amazin', having watched anime for a good whole months due to being busy and wow. I came. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| what the FUCK did I just watch o.O |
| Hmm, SHAFT always has great OPs, I wonder wh-OH GOD MY EARS ...that being said, I do actually quite like the OP despite the ear-rape. And her talking voice is adorable. I really like this show in general actually. also fuck yes Yakushimaru Etsuko! |
the Imaginary and the Real can never mingle. |
| Good.. actually, it was great for a first episode :D When I first watched and saw the OP.. I was kinda thrown off and didn't want to watch the rest of the episode thinking it was some kiddie anime.. but I'm glad I watched it and got a good 20++ minutes enjoyable watchng time :D and yeah well, that "Aunt" doesn't look like 39 at all .. I loved how they projected Erio.. She looked so beautiful for me.. 5/5 for the first episode.. |
 |
| Looks like SHAFT's going to deliver some lulz and moe. It really reminded me Arakawa under the Bridge. Weird start but it seems enjoyable. :D OP was good and the ED is just adorable. lol |
| This is the first anime with seinen tag that i actually didnt enjoy. And god that voice someone change it asap. Moe overload with light ecchi elements.. preety much the things i hate in anime. Gonna give this another episode before the drop bucket. |
 |
| This delivered. First episode of this season that just left me craving for more. The futon unwrapping will be rewatched over and over. Ending by Etsuko will be looped. |
H.L. Mencken said: Every normal man must be tempted, at times, to spit upon his hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats. |
| i think this is possibly the best first episode this season. i mean, look! its the story of a cute girl wrapped up in a futon that chats rubbish and acts really strange. and to top, Meme is quite a weirdo to, ahhhhh i want to watch the next episode now, i hope the next episode will keep up the style and that i have not been mislead by having this much anticipation. |

| I also found it a really great first episode, like Nichibotsu-kaeru said maybe even the best of this season until now. I also doubt Meme is really 39 years old, she looks like she's 25 or something. For those of us who speak Dutch, here's my opinion about the first episode. |
| Really funny episode. I guess we can nominate Meme for shittiest mom of the year, all years. |
 |
| What the hell has this poor guy gotten himself into? Loved the animation and the OP and ED!! |
 |
| When the op started i was like oh it'll have a great catchy chorus like other shaft animes ^_^ but then it was just simple,but then i realized it was perfect the way it was! ^_^ |
| Erio is OK as a character and her voice is kinda cute. However her mom...well...she is disgusting. Almost 40 years old woman who pretends to be a cute schoolgirl or something....bleh...i wanna summon Touma and ask him to punch her in the face. Some scenes reminded me of other Shaft's works like Bakemonogatari and Madoka. |
| meme looks like the girl from toradora and makoto looks like the guy from durarara but i just might be me |
 |
| I have no idea what I just watched. But I like it, I really like it. It has the SHAFT feel, from the head tilt to the limited animations. Where's my eye closeup though? Will continue this. Dat OP. Dat Meme. Dat Eriko. So Ami's a hot MILF while Ryuji and Taiga are in Butei Academy. And somehow I was reminded of Amano Ginji from GetBackers when I first saw Makoto. |
 |
| awesome anime i think meme like ami in toradora i can't wait to see erie face from that warped futon when i watching that give me more and more feeling to see her just wanted to say THIS IS AWESOME |
 |
| Horrible op, boring ed. Pretty meh anime. Hope it becomes better. But I think this one will end up on my worst of the season list just like Dog Days. |
 |
| I've never seen such an improbable concept in an anime. Ever. There was absolutely nothing in this first episode so I'm really close to dropping it but I'll watch the second just in case. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
| Good anime, nice ED and song. Enjoy'd it however the subs of t he version i saw were horrible, didnt even have time to read all that text. |

|
| The first 10 or so minutes were kind of hard to stick through, but after that I was relieved to find out that SHAFT have done another good anime. |
| That was atrocious. |

Even Lotte no Omocha`s 1st ep is better :P What is better or worse is relative, so bashing an anime when almost everyone here praise it is a bad idea, I guess. Or do it in another comparative thread. Or you just want to troll XD Anyway,return to the topic, since I already know the persons behind the light novel I guess it's pretty safe to say that this show is another a must watch show for me. However the most important thing, story, will be determined by latter episode, Art 5/5 (buriki WIN) Music 4.5/5 Story ?/5 (can't judge anything from1st ep, but this have a lot of clever talks just like in Bakemonogatari and good pre-setting) SHAFT factor 5/5 Moe 9000++/5 So why shouldn't I watch this? |
| shaft being not so shaft xD, but it has potential. the futon talking was so hard to listen to and funny at the same time. |
 |
I think the whole table talk was a waste and a bit boring but Erio is smoking hot in the following, and I so love to hear her say "Alien, I'm a Alien" I so want to meet the aliens that abducted so I can Falcon Punch them for WTF are they doing to a nice girl like her. I should bring Duke Nukem too for safety. "Come and get some!" No matter what you say, you cannot deny how promising the landscape is in the following,  it's gorgeous and looks promising. More later. |
| Uhmm.. very... unique? I think? ... Erio's... interesting. Luckily we were able to see her without a futon on her head in the end. Oh yes and of course Meme be trolling Makoto really hard through the whole episode. =P OP and ED were very unique. I don't know if I should like them or hate them. Looks like Makoto does + and - for adolescent points after every episode huh? Pretty interesting. He's trying to be as mature as possible. xD |
 |
| That was interesting... Very moe indeed. |
 |
| Those books in Erio's room look like amazing reads. |
 |
Onyxthegreat said: Yo dude! Been sometime! In regards to OP and ED, IMO OP is fine but ED kills the ears. WTF is up with the song and all. Only thing good is in the spoiler of the endOP and ED were very unique. I don't know if I should like them or hate them. |
| It was... overloaded by moe *_* Loved it... Shaft are playing with me >< Erio... OMOCHIKAERI! |
| Akward when Makoto get into his new home and saw a girl wrapped in a futon at the entrance... But it's Shaft, so it shouldn't be surprising :P Love Erio's appearance in the moonlight <3 |
  |
| Dat OP Dat Futon LMAO that OP.. I listened to like 5 or 6 times I think, it could have been more GOD DAMN.. I love this Seiyuu... ; A ;!!! anyways, the first episode was good as for Meme she aint 39 D< ..she don't look like it nor act like it, I bet she's 24 e3e ..(a young looking milf? yes yes? xD?) anyways, Been waiting for this anime to come out OTL and it finally did 8D //happy |

Nasty001 said: Hoppy said: Meme is pure cuteness and I'm glad Erio is out of the futon, she's beautiful. That OP man, it searches for weaknesses in your mind and stays there. I was going to give the episode a 4 if the futon didn't go but since it was removed by Makoto 5/5. For a 39 year old, meme kinda looks like somebody who is as ditsy as a 14year old and she kinda looks like she could still pass for an 18 year old. Not to mention strong, my goodness Erio went partially through the wall because of Meme's throw, I wonder where she learned self defense because I would love to learn how to throw someone like her. |
 |
| The main problem is: But however strange was this episode, I chuckled a few times - because of the characters. Just... like mother, like daughter - the two of them are what makes me feel like watching the next episode. So... 3+/5 for this episode. |
     |
| I can't put my finger on this show. It doesn't feel like Shaft yet at the same time you can see what you normally expect from Shaft. I'm at a loss on this show. Regardless of what it feels like, this was an excellent first episode and I'm sure it will be a hilarious ride. |
| Ok™ |
| I find it funny that the majority of the time in anime like this the mom or in this case Aunt is hot. My Aunt would be in trouble if she looked like that : p |
 |
| Not enough road signs. :((( Shinbo you let me down! But damn, the futon loli shotgunned that pizza like some Liz Lemon. :O |
| I missed watching a guy having to deal with an apparent nut case like in arakawa under the bridge (does Shaft like to make anime with nut case girls with alien obsessions?), it's everything you'd expect from shaft nowadays, I'll keep watching Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko as a replacement for arakawa. 3.5/5 |
| "The R1 Anime business is a cruel and shallow financial trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side." |
| Didn't see such good animation from Shaft since Ef. |
 |
| I thought it was cute, I laughed a bunch and the animation was great. Looking forward to more of this! |
 |
| Oh God, the opening is horrible =/ I'm not sure what to think about this show, but I love the animation, and the main characters look nice, so I'm going to stick with it, and see what it has to offer. |
