| Looove the op! Wasn't expecting this to be that good o u o |
| Headtilt. Headtilt everywhere. |
| I just can't get enough of Erio. @________@" |
     |
| kaze hiku noooo~~~ kaze hiku noooo~~~ shinbou-sensei, I love you! |
| Dear god i could not stand that OP,other then that i liked it coming from a non light Novel reader i thought it was *weird and unique* which isn't a bad thing at all i feel alot of the comdey is gonna come from the Random conversations like the dinner part haha. |
 |
| The head tilts remind me of Bakemonogatari... Ok first episode. |
 |
| I watch anything by Shaft, but this was a lot better than expected. It does resemble Arakawa, but with a younger cast. The pacing was spot on, I was watching this with a broad grin on my face throughout the entire ep, including the OP. A male lead who concludes that a girl is so gorgeous, god had to correct it with a huge minus in the brain-department, is win in my book. And aside from the usual head-tilts, it looks like they've hired an animator with a foot-fetish for this ep :D |
 |
| Better than I had expected. Got kinda boring towards the end but was really good everywhere else. 5/5 No idea what this thing is going to be about so that's pretty cool. |
 |
| Well, that certainly was bizarre... I'm probably going to enjoy it, but it's too early to tell. And to anyone who dislikes the OP, enjoy your dime-a-dozen, bland j-pop. |
| Very unique one that is for sure, but sort of interesting in the way that it may get batter. At least Erio got the futon off of her self. |
 |
| I swear, Meme is Kawashima (from Toradora) in the future. ><;;; Oh, and... MOE!!!  |
| Well some bits were SHAFT like while others were like "Did SHAFT really do this?" - is this the start of a new side to SHAFT? Overall it was a fun episode; I definitely consider this one of the "must watches" of this season. Also (I don't care as I'm not much into the fanservice thing but I'm curious...) Was the censor for Erio's panty shot due to the new laws being enforced where they want to ban the use of underage kids being displayed in inappropriate ways in the media?  |

| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
| My moe sensors are tingling. |
Blackiris said: Nice pose comparison but then again recycling in anime what was done before is no surprise. Nice pointing out, I would never would have though so much resemblance is present. Whatever you do if you notice anything else similar in the future episode I would like to know. Thanks.The main problem is: artist_for_hire said: Yup, same here. I miss that too.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?) |
| I liked it. *thumbs up* MOE. |
| "MOE" FTW! :D |
 |
| So was this good or just freaking retarded? |
| OMG that ED <3 Thats one of the loveliest of ED songs. The ED alone is worthy to get the anime a very good score from me! |
| Stay Home and Wash Your Hands. Protect Yourself. Protect Your Loved Ones. Protect Your Community and Help Defeat Coronavirus. |
| Interesting kinda weird but I'm willing to tolerate it !! |
 |
| I'm liking it so far~ it's sorta weird but what the heck, I liiike iiiitttt. I really like the art. Erio's pretty, Makoto's cute. Damn, I think I'm hooked already. |
     |
| oh boy, the OP made me want to bleed through my ears. ED's fine though. Weird, weird girl though Arakawa had more retarded characters(oh, don't get me wrong. I adored Arakawa) Have always loved SHAFT and always will <3 *laughs*...the dude and the aunt is funny! |
 |
| This is like Gosick, except the loli thinks she's an alien instead of a detective genius. Either way I'm watching this. |
| Shaft, what else? |
| I have no clue what I just watched but it was interesting. Definitely going to stay on my watching list. Was the Maria and George thing a reference to Mother maybe? |
| this anime is so moe, fun and funny! *-* I found the story very interesting, I think it will be one of the best anime this season! <3 |

cleo said: A male lead who concludes that a girl is so gorgeous, god had to correct it with a huge minus in the brain-department, is win in my book. I agree, a very witty and funny conclusion! Not just the fact that it came from a male lead though, it's just a great statement. I liked Makoto as soon as he started interacting with Meme anyway, so it just confirmed that he's a good character in my eyes. He strikes me as a tsukkomi-type character and I love those types of leads. I can't wait to hear what else he has to say when talking to people and in response to the strange things that Erio has to say. |
| "LET'S HOSPITAL!" |
| High levels of "what the fuck did I just watch". Which is what makes it so fascinating. WANT MOAR. |
prismheart said: Cute girl, I think this show will deliver some good laughs. I agree, this first episode left a great impression on me. I love the characters so far, and the guy doesn't seem bad at all. I think this will be one of the shows I enjoy most this season, I get a good feeling from it. |
-Katsu- said: shadowyoshi said: Was the Maria and George thing a reference to Mother maybe? Thought the same thing and I'm pretty sure it is, since George and Maria also raised an alien kid. There are quite a few references to various works. I Googled one of the names that was mentioned and got Crayon Shin-chan, of all things. This anime seems kind of boring to me. The conversations have a whole lot of arbitrary nonsense in them, and really the only things that hint at a plot are the beginning and end. Still, I'm interested in the premise, so I'll keep watching and see what they do with it. |
| First of all, the songs were AMAZING!! I liked how completely non-cliche this show is, in that its destroying cliches. Erio was just adorable the whole episode, i'm hooked just on her I kinda expected some more of the usual SHAFT-ness from this show, but for a while I just couldn't tell it was even SHAFT, which ironically, is just like them |
Love & Piece |
| Cute show, very cute. SHAFT does well. |
| "If you feed me, Seymour, I can grow up big and strong!" |
| … WFT DID I JUST WATCH? Well, it’s SHAFT, it’s to be expected. It’s ridiculous and bizarre but that makes it quite enjoyable… to certain point. Am I the only one who thinks the OP is terribly out-of-pitch, ear grating and squeaky? All in all, it’s not exactly my cup of tea. I’m sticking with it ‘till the end, anyway. |
I think, then procrastinate. Therefore, I am. |
| Promising start: Aliens premise + Shaft dialogues and takes = good stuff. |
... |
| dont know what to think about this. |

| That was better then I expected. o_____o Love the ED! |
| milf... 39, holy fuck. and more like +10 for seeing her face. ah, just like the guy said, this is how god likes to troll us.. by having a visually beautiful anime with not much content |
    |
| =O I'm looking forward to the rest of this anime series. |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Wow... A seamless Shitbo show? The annoying VA who voiced Arakawa's Kou & Bakamono's Arararararagi with his faggotry of a shouting voice doesn't voice the main guy? You gotta be kidding me! Well, since Shitbo did Soredemo Machi, he seems to be making less pompous 'artistic' crap, prolly ran outta ideas & sugar or getting tired of his new fapping obsession (The headtilt, with teh EYES before that) or something.... Actually, that's a good thing, for me at least, even though there are still some annoying aspects such as the GDOawful rather unfunny convo between the guy & his aunt regarding blanket girl. But since I don' read the source materials, I can only assume that it might be what it actually was and Shitbo faithfully adapted it. Other than that, it was pretty enjoyable (especially the aunt, that's what I call 'authentic moe', not the moe shit kind) and I can only hope that SHAFT will be able to maintain this quality till the end cuz it looks to me like they already spent their entire budget on female characters' design, especially the oh-so-FUKKEN-blue hair.... |
 If he's not with us, he's AGAINST us!!! |
| Awesome show.... MOE |
 |
| Soredemo had a horrible first episode and that show turned out well. If the same doesn't happen to this moe fest then I'm dropping this like a motherfucker. |
| I liked the ED about the futons. The show seems pretty enjoyable too. |
| That aunt is rather interesting. Caring more about herself then her daughter and not even admitting she is there i wonder how that household has form that way. I have to say tho with her being so strange it's not a surprise that her daughter is pretty strange as well the question is what was up with the start and why does she thing she is a alien? |
| The first episode is definitely fun. Shaft is doing pretty good on this one. |
