Doesn't look mentally sick to me, not even near. Obviously she's the first one to understand that all that stuff is just the product of her imagination but even so, what of it? Dream, imagination and hope; she's a girl that rather abide by these than by some social conformist rules. She's the embodiment of the idea of "Keeping your child heart" and isn't washed by society's standards. Imagination is real, it's not something that you can touch or feel with your sense but it's the product of your wish and desire no matter how many form it takes. Why would it weird to dream? Why should that be even embarassing? Everyone imagine impossible scenario in their head but once it's acted in real life it's wrong? That girl is awesome and she got guts. I would be too much embarassed to do what she's doing but I would lie if I said that I didn't envie her being fully honest with herself like that. |

| This anime seems like it will be good :) Looks VERY similar to the Suzumiya Haruhi series :D (and the drawings remind me of SKETDance o.o) |
 |
| Pretty funny show! And yay for Fukuyama Jun :) |
eworm said: Okay, not really, it looks nice and the girl's weirdness is very enjoyable. This is how Haruhi should've been. The whole thing about Haruhi series is about how much of a weirdo she is, when she is not weird in the slightest, just energetic and selfish. THIS girl is weird. Again, enjoyably so. Eh... The whole idea was keeping Haruhi's delusions in check, and not letting her realize just what she was capable of. Allow Haruhi to get wrapped up in a Rikka-like fantasy and she wouldn't be weird - she'd actually have those powers, would actually be battling some shadowy agency, and the series would take quite a different direction... |

I agree, it even says it in her character description. "The main heroine, she made a contract with Togashi Yuuta. She is an active Chuunibyou, who still has the syndrome." Something like this doesn't make Rikka stupid, it just makes her behavior unusual. I have yet to find anything about her that demeans her intelligence. |
| This anime it's hilarious! I love it! Made me laugh even more than Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun |
 |
| Main Characters -> check! Ok I decided to follow this anime! I'll wait until it finished. See you in the last episode discussion! |

| KyoAni showing off in the animation department...beautiful as always. Looks funny enough, though it seems they will keep to a realistic setting which is a pity in my opinion. 4/5. |

Playing with words, but the god complex isn't a retardation. Kyoani loves this kind of characters. I mean moe and those girls aren't about to be smart. They still have some relatively much fans, so they may don't mind this madness. |
| he just needs his regular dose of disney movies. next patient plz also seizure-inducing op wasn't fun to watch tbh |
 |
odoroki said: also seizure-inducing op wasn't fun to watch tbh Personally, I liked it :D Unique lol |
| Oh god, I'm already in love with this show. |
 |
| Found the first episode quite amusing~ Reminds me of an otaku ver of Hyouka lol As expected from Kyoto Animation animes haha ^^ |
| This was actually nice. The ending was fun. |
| All other studio, that's how you create moe! Cute, funny, warm AND adorable. This show made me giggle a lot, best quality moe, indeed. As expected from KyoAni. p.s despite of some negative impressions on moe, but I believe people should treat bad moe as a bad moe, and good moe as a good moe. And this is a good example, personally much better than K-ON for me. (some romances help a lot on raising this bar) |

| What's up with that flashy OP That Konami Code thing was great, haha. |
KuroNoKenshi said: Dream, imagination and hope; she's a girl that rather abide by these than by some social conformist rules. She's the embodiment of the idea of "Keeping your child heart" and isn't washed by society's standards. I love you. |
Waev said: What's up with that flashy OP That Konami Code thing was great, haha. It reminded me of Riko's use of the Konami cheat code... Rikka seems adorable. Yuuta seems a bit obnoxious but he's OK overall. |
| Damn, there should be an epilepsy warning for that OP! Anywho, I'm liking it so far. Very quirky and the art and characters are nice so far. I wonder how the whole 'romance' part of this series is going to pan out, because we all know Rikka is going to be the main girl. |
 |
| That OP hurt my eyes. I think it's the first one in a while that i'm going to skip. Entertaining, but it gave me the impression that this series is just going to be for the sake of moe. Lead male is funny, but the girl is going to irritate me at one point. Otherwise good episode. If the rest of the series is like this, it's going to be pretty damn entertaining. Anyone else had this syndrome? I think i did, lol. I told everyone a friend of mine and i were witches who knew how to do spells. I had voodoo dolls with me and everything. Everyone believed me, lol. Thank goodness i wasn't as extreme as our male lead. The majority of my classmates have known me since kindergarten. |

| I don't care if this was done by KyoAni or not. They got the money, so of course they'll animate it well. But what about the contents? Well, they're not bad this time. Ep was pretty funny and I liked the way the relationship between the 2 main characters developed this ep. After first ep, this seems more interesting to me than Hyouka. Guess I'll follow it :-) |
 |
| Cute and Adorable first episode. Got some few laughs and giggles. That is all. |

Doesn't look mentally sick to me, not even near. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hebephrenia she fits loads of them. KuroNoKenshi said: No she does not. She seems to take as a reality and deems it real.Obviously she's the first one to understand that all that stuff is just the product of her imagination but even so, what of it? KuroNoKenshi said: No not at all. The girl is the example of girls that are mentally problematic by imagining things and making them into society as much real as she can. Look at all her hysteria and people freaking out on her.Imagination and hope; she's a girl that rather abide by these than by some social conformist rules. She's the embodiment of the idea of "Keeping your child heart" and isn't washed by society's standards. KuroNoKenshi said: It does not matter as long as she cannot contain them in her head and believes it to be a reality it will cause problem for people around her. Look at the normal person and other weirding her out. Look at people avoiding her.Imagination is real, it's not something that you can touch or feel with your sense but it's the product of your wish and desire no matter how many form it takes.

KuroNoKenshi said: No the girl is RETARDED for acting like that in society. People like her are avoided because they can see she is mentally not well. That girl is awesome and she got guts. I would be too much embarassed to do what she's doing but I would lie if I said that I didn't envie her being fully honest with herself like that. There is nothing wrong with what she does except when it makes problems in society and disturbs her life. Which does IMO. That being said YOU pointed out to a normal person's thinking. BIG MISTAKE! She is not normal like that. Her imagination is though of as being real and another person with the same disease might also think it's real hence why Yuuta sees it as real. |
| I thought the main female character was going to be emo/tsundere character(mainly because of the eyepatch),so i avoided the anime then got bored started watching and she is hilarious. That train scene where she pretends she used her powers to open the door lol. |
| The amount of moe coming from Rikka is amazing. This show looks promising for me. Moe eye patch girls, what's not to like? |
 |
| Too much moe but still gonna watch it. Is it me or this show has some references to other Fukuyama's works? I mean, the main character does a pose like Lelouch and the surname of the girl is Takanashi (Working). |
| This seemed prety legit. Since it's only 12 episodes i wil probably finish it ,although it's not my favorite |
 |
| Wasn't expecting much out of this, but I actually laughed a few times. Hope they don't mess up though. ED is pretty catchy, too. |
| Too many eyepatch girls lately :\ Will watch just cause it's KyoAni.. |
| Feels like a worse version of Denpa Onna, but there were a few nice moments. Twelve episodes is a good length as well, Hyouka was far too long. |
LoneWolf said: @Josh makes me sad to call myself Canadian. |
| Love the OP and its animations. I was laughing my butt off the whole time. |
 |
| Really cute first ep. Wasn't really expecting this when I read the synopsis though. Rikka is damn cute!! |
| I mainly see the animes... so don't blame me for not knowing about the Manga/LN |
| I thoroughly enjoyed it, but everything was a little too familiar. Up until about my freshman year, the majority of my friends were almost exactly like Rikka, and it isn't nearly as cute in the real world. |
| I'm dead. Don't come looking for me. |
| I love the lighthearted atmoshpere here; the animation and art style is pleasing, and soundtrack is nice (I especially enjoyed the BGM around 4 or 5 minutes in). Definitely looking forward to more. |

She is not normal like that. Her imagination is though of as being real and another person with the same disease might also think it's real hence why Yuuta sees it as real. Oh honestly. Dude, I think you are taking this far too seriously. This is a lighthearted comedy for crying out loud! It's not likely to showcase something as serious as a disease like that. Where did it once say that she had some disease? It didn't. All we've been hearing is about this 8th Grade Syndrome, which is the whole point of the show. If it's the whole point of the show, wouldn't it make sense that she has it? It's a made up syndrome anyways, just for this series. It's just something these kids come up with because they're bored. It's kinda like Avatar Withdrawal Syndrome. It's not a disease, just a fun little thing to explain their obsession. We've only seen 1 episode so far, I don't think it's wise to assume something so bold just yet. We can't be sure of whether she's acting like this on purpose or not. For all we know she could be just pretending to act like this and having fun with it. From what I've seen it does seem that way. And Kuroneko was the same way, but we know she was doing it for fun as well. I don't see how this situation is that different. |

| really great1st episode, will stick aroung for more. |
| Can't help but lol'd at the "retarded" argument. Btw, can't stop relating these two...Maybe because I didn't really remember Rinka's name, but when I tried recalling it, I had a mistake and thought it was Nobutani Rinka~ Where did I hear Nobutani anyway... -_- Nibutani Shinka = Kunitachi Rinka See the similarities? :D |
DraconisMarch said: Typical KyoAni moeblobs. I don't get how anyone in this show is moe.. I watched the first episode, and having seen Clannad there is a MAJOR difference between the two. I thought the show was funny, entertaining and had good music. To each his own, I guess. |
