I'ts nice that they got the original story and art from the manga not some of the new ones today that they changed few minor designs.

Anyway since I read the manga I already know what to expect and I'm sure there will be a lot of you who would want to have a second season.

but still every time I watch or read the drool thing either my head hurts or my stomach does though its still an interesting story.

I still can't believe that I would ever see it animated.
I think Hoods did a great job on the stark colors, bringing life to the piece.

A new voice in the industry is great also.

Fantastic. I loved it.
I'm not sure if I'm disgusted about the saliva licking, or I find it hot. At any rate, interesting.
The direction is also very well done. Maybe, as expected from Doraemon's director? Haha

Guys probably would have been hard pressed not to want to touch the drool if a similar situation occurred in real life. For example if a hot girl left her drink bottle she'd been drinking from on your desk for some reason would you just hand it back without thinking about it?

Sexual urges tend to override peoples common sense and this is just one form of it.

Having never heard of this manga/anime before today I am wondering how strange things will get o.O

EDIT: Urabe's VA sounds alot like Tsujiwaki Miki from Hungry Heart Wild Striker.

Best episode of this season.
About the particularities that we ignore and love of people we like.
We fell in love not by the what people have best, but what they have at single.
This is the best tasting chocolate I could win this Easter.

Very interesting. To all you drool haters, what do you think happens when making out? You share saliva. It's obviously not as direct as this shows, but it still happens.

The drool thing was weird but this is a very unique anime. Not only the plot, but also the char designs ( For this day and age atleast )

That, and the romance is actually awesome. No silly misunderstandings like in many cliche rom-coms, and the relationship starts off on the first ep of the series. I like that.

All in all, looking forward to this series! I really hope people wont be so turned off by the whole drool thing that they give this anime a low score. I have a feeling this will be a sleeper hit ( For me atleast :P )

And come on, kissing involves sucking on your partners saliva so it's not unusual :P

I'm a big fan of the the manga so keep that in mind.

The adaptation so far has been really good and true to the manga. I'm not a huge fan of the VA for this, but that's all personal taste. I wasn't a fan of the choice of Yuno's VA in Mirai Nikki but now I couldn't imagine anyone else doing it.

I don't mind the drool thing at all, but the excessive slurping sounds are a little overly dramatic and excessive - but that comes with the territory.

A note to anyone having problems with the saliva part: go watch the first episode of Koe de Oshigoto - that will desensitize you for Kanajo X. Koe de Oshigoto is IMO a hidden gem of manga that was turned into an anime OVA which is, well......different than still images.

Oh wow, this was better than I had expected. A very unique Anime indeed. Urabe's one mysterious and quirky girl. A very mysterious aura around her indeed. The MC seems like your typical worried and caring kinda guy. The saliva parts are hilarious, especially when Urabe shoves her finger into his mouth and says 'lick it'. That bit where a massive amount of saliva falls out from Urabe's mouth seemed somewhat unappealing lol. Especially when you're eating something while watching... xD Still it was hilarious. They could always kiss, but I guess this lick on my saliva is more unique. :P

Interesting Anime, looking forward to more episodes.

It's true that the character designs look dated but oddly enough I like it. I also enjoyed Urabe Mikoto's seiyuu. She has a very sultry voice that you don't typically hear in school girl voices. Okay setting that aside.....this show is WEIRD!!! I've never heard of addiction to drool. It grossed me out when Tsubaki tasted Urabe's drool off the desk. That was not necessary! Normally I would drop something like this but because it's so weird and the characters are oddly likeable I'm going to give it another chance. I don't know where the plot is going but I think I can ignore the drool addiction part to find out.

It was overall, a very... ummm... unique experience.
I can see this will be a show about the first forays into sex from a inexperienced couple point of view.
The episode itself was done rather well.

The saliva kind of turns me off this show a little though...

Haha, I find it funny that I actually cringed during the scene where Akira first tasted the drool. I thought I'd be too numb to react to something like that.
I guess it was the way it was executed that made it so effective.

Anyway, I liked the animation. I'm curious to see where the story goes from here.

Sooo.. Basically this show is going to focus on the both having sex. I won't expect too much...

I really liked the music and especially the art! It reminds me of some classics like Ranma and stuff.
Though it mostly focussed on sex, I liked that it showed no signs of fanservice. And there's also no typical Anime Bullshit, like girls with green and yellow and pink hair...
And it had some funny parts.

But the whole saliva thing seemed pretty fucked up and so did his dreams. Dancing on Times Square with sinks and toilets in the background is kinda... Well..
The description of Urabe seemed really cool, but I don't like her voice. Her sudden laughing is annoying.
The male lead is quite okay, I think.

BTW it didn't look like he was 'accidentaly' tasting her drool, like the description says :D

Let's see..

Holy fuck this is one weird ass anime. But it's surprisingly well done despite the crap studio and newbie actress. That actress, has a lot of potential to become an amazing legend. Sort of like Rie. Except this one doesn't specialize in tsunderes. Seems her voice is perfect for queer characters.

Umm.. There are people talking about sex.

Have to say, you shouldn't expect sex around here. It's nowhere close to that.
Actually we're having a tough time so far in the manga just to see them kiss each other.
It doesn't seem like the first kiss will come anytime soon though.

This is solely about drool. I cannot relate it to sex at all.

The art style seems different from the usual, anyway I like that it's different. Weird and different things are becoming interesting as of late, or maybe it's just me.

I don't read the manga but yeah all that sex partner thing Urabe was talking about was just crushed in my mind when I saw all the sleeping and drooling characters in the ED. T_T

Nice first episode

I read the manga and I really like that they kept the art-style. The colours they use give a very romantic and high quality feeling to the animation.

The only thing that bothers me is the VA for Urabe. I had another kind of voice in mind for her, guess I will have to get used to it

Dafuq did I just watch? o_O

Urabe is such an... interesting character. What a weirdo indeed. Not tha Akira is any more normal. Tasting saliva... ewww, what a fetish. You can so easily get sick that way, which of course happened. In the end it seems to be a withdrawal symptom of lovesickness? Which means he'll have to keep tasting it? Wat?! D:

She really has some sort of excess saliva problem. She throws up spit and then they go talking about sex. This show has some weird shit going on. xD

Very old school art this series has too. Reminded me of some of the older '90's anime. I don't quite know what to think of this yet, but it's interesting nonetheless. =P

That old school art style combined with modern animation techniques... all right, I'm totally digging it. I like how it's not overly generic, has believable characters, and actually something IS happening. There's no betsu ni bullshit, no love triangles, no any of those annoying traits so popularized in anime these days. And even though that whole saliva withdrawal symptoms is no less strange than the premise of Upotte! - I have to say that I enjoyed this episode thoroughly and cannot wait for the next one.

5/5 - and for Haruhi's sake, may this series get better not worse over time...

This season really is exceptionally good, huh?

The funniest thing about that laughing scene is the delayed joke tied to it.

Later, Urabe admits that when she fell over laughing she had a mental thought that told her that she was going to have sex with Akira.

The funniest part is that Akira didn't realize she was laughing at the absurdity of that internal mental thought. he was too busy being shocked at her admitting her thoughts so bluntly.

THAT in itself was hilarious.
