Didn't feel like Tooru's anxiety was resolved at all. Would probably have been better if they hadn't tried giving it that "depth" and kept it as a silly slice-of-lifer.

Still, it was a fun series as far as this genre goes. I enjoyed it.

I won't lie, I was pretty disappointed by this. It just...doesn't offer anything new at all. It doesn't have it's own charm or it's own "thing" (like music, art, etc from K-ON or Hidamari) to set it apart from other shows, it's just a plain slice of life. The characters are pretty bland and complete stereotypes with not much added to their character to make them stand out.

Still, it was an ok show and I'll give it 7/10.
Said all I wanted to say, I rated it 6. Strangely enough it TRIED to get itself up and actually managed to be entertaining during the last 2 or 3 episodes but by then it was too late. I'd say no one will remember this one after a few months.

Yeah, I'm all for slice of life and moe, but this was just dull, zero substance.
Great series if you need help falling asleep though.

That ending song was so beautiful! Well, I certainly liked the whole show. At first I wasn't so sure but the characters just grew on me. Especially Run, Yutaka and Kamade-sensei. Actually, all three teachers are very funny.

I'm really not sure how or why I watched this whole series. It's really nothing special; not bad, but not good. Also, as mentioned earlier, the inset songs really got on my nerves.

5/10, mediocre.

Wasn't much of a good conclusion. Not to mention the show itself was ridiculously boring at times.

And yet, it had a warm feeling to it. Everytime each episode ended I;'d feel so warm and fuzzy. Overall 6/10.

Ive never seen K-ON before ... so this was great! Also was expecting Run to actually be an alien at the end, typical GAINAX-like ending.

They need more Kitou x Satou interaction. Love their banter.

Good catch on Yutaka's eyes. Did not notice that before.

The later episodes were less comedy-related but it's always depressing when a series finishes, so it matched my mood D:

'twas a nice anime, although too much slice of life. Hmmmm basically Mugi went inside Mio's body and had kansai dialect=Yuuko XD, Yui with her forehead exposed -_-=Run, Ritsu looking smarter with glasses=Nagi(springfield XD) and Azusa, shrunk a lot and a bit cooler :)

Was more of a Boring Drama than Comedy. But can't call it terrible since I was able to finish it.

Tooru was the only fleshed out character, very disappointing.
I really enjoyed Tooru though. She felt like a more original character, she was cute but that didn't define her. She was more of a complete person than a blob you usually find in a slice of life.

Cute series overall. I turned my brains off watching it a few times but I got a warm fuzzy feeling watching it all the way through. The characters are just sooo innocent :3

6/10. Could of been a little better imo if the dialogues had more humor in them.

I do feel like they could have done a lot more with the anime, but I guess a simple slice of life was what it was really trying to be. I don't think it's as good as something like Minami ke, but I liked it a lot
I could agree with you, but then we'd both be wrong.

it was a okay anime it had really good moments and bad moments episode 12 was the fumiest and best to me sadly this anime was not really much different from any other anime but i still did enjoy watching it.

in the end i gave it a 7/10 i usually score not so high with comedies any more since i am kinda disappointed in them so it means they did pretty good in this show.

Hah heh hi hoh heeh hoh huu hua hah--

Whoops bit my tongue. Meant to say that this turned out to be a really fun way to wrap up an already funny show. I completely lost it when Run said she was an alien. It was (not so) strangely believable for a moment. I also like how this episode managed to deal with Tooru's worries about being left behind without turning it into a dramatic thing. The idea of being left out and left behind has been following her since episode 1 so it was nice to how she was reassured by Run's silly antics that even as time chugs on, they'll remain friends.

This caught me by surprise since I picked it up on a very random whim. Even for a CGDCT SOL, it really cracked me up a surprising amount and I thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish. I enjoyed the lighthearted hilarity and the main cast really clicked together well. Run was hands down my favorite character. Her constant air headed antics had me roaring and the facial expressions she made only captured her crazy cuteness even more. Kitou-sensei was a riot as well, GOOD MORNING! This was a nice reminder that I need these kinds of shows from time to time to kick back and have easy going fun.

This was so average,it's like it was competing to get out as many SoL "cute girls doing cute things" cliches as possible. The whole series just felt dead honestly I can't even explain it,but I didn't really like it which is a shame because I expected a cute anime. :/

The more Run blank stare comes, the more i like this series so far. Look in this end, Tooru dreaming Run as an alien! She shall be treated as an alien, because of her lackness really being spotted as an alien! More and more, the friends of Tooru really get to my attention even more. Sadly, all of them is finished, when they know entering the new terms of schools. Well, lets see how the OVA resolve my curiosity.

A-Channel anime is basically similar to the k-on ending pattern while Tooru being Azusa xD well overall it's quite a nice and heartwarming CGDCT anime, the jokes/activities didn't affect me so much because I probably watched too many CGDCT/SoL anime so all of this kinda seemed basic but well it was sure a fine watch.

It was a nice series.. Was enjoyable to watch, slice of life was nice, liked the characters.. Anime at the same time tried to revolve around Tooru and Run the most.. Their relationship and how they are.. With some additions of other characters here and there, with their things..

Hanging out at a burger joint and soothing Toru's fears of getting left behind to end the series.

This cgdct show was pretty good. Nothing outstanding, pretty standard, but given its age I'm willing to cut it some slack in that regard. I see in fact that this final episode originally aired 11 years ago exactly in Japan...tomorrow. Heh, I almost wish I'd waited until tomorrow now to watch it, but oh well. The only thing that stood out was the fact that every episode had an insert song, I think this last one had 2. Well it swapped out ending themes anyway. Shows nowadays don't do things like that, an insert song every episode I mean. Honestly I'm not sure it was all that common back then either. But I'm rambling. Somewhat generous 7/10.

Perhaps I'll watch the shorts next or perhaps not. Which reminds me, I watched this via a Sentai Blu-Ray release I picked up awhile ago pretty cheap(otherwise I probably wouldn't have bought it semi-blind as I pretty much never do that) and I gotta say: I really wish Sentai didn't clutter up the screen with those white text cultural/translation notes. It wasn't too bad here, probably occurring only about ten times or so throughout the entire show, but it's still annoying. I'd be okay with them as a bonus optional feature, but the fact that you can't turn them off sucks. I've never minded Sentai using yellow as the color for their main subtitles as I've seen others complain about online. It's those extra ones that irritate me, but oh well.

Nice and relaxing finale.

"Good morning, meow." Aww, Tooru was sad, but Tansan comforted her.

Yutaka saved a cat who kitty was trapped in a tree. Her rescue operation looked a little dangerous, haha. I'm glad she didn't hurt herself.

It's cute how they immediately became friends. Tooru and Miho's reactions were amusing.

Run was hilarious when she tried to talk after she bit her tongue. x3

I liked Yuko's Mio impersonation. xD

Lol at that random alien part.

Tooru hugging Tansan again. Poor girl. She's going to be lonely after Run, Yuko, and Nagi have graduated. Don't worry, sweetheart. They'll be your friends forever. <3

Overall, this was a little better show than I remembered. I loved the characters, their interactions and friendships.

They look so happy together. <3
