| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Since no one else has bother yet, and I'm bored: Not going to lie, this series looks fairly bad. The 5 year old like voice irritates me to no end, the background music sounds like it came from a gameboy game at times... bleh. I'll check out another episode too see if i want to continue or not, but doesn't look very positive. |
| #dontcare |
| I didn't think it was that bad. I really liked the OP, gotta get that song once it's out. It looks nice even though the art style has some minor flaws here and there. I also liked the black school uniforms, how cool is that. Other than that it doesn't look like anything special yet, but I don't really judge First Episodes. So we'll see. |

| Agree with the voices, but I kinda lol'd whatever happened 8D I liked that slap. If it is true it only has 13 eps, I don't mind following the whole series. Nanaka not so cute :< Aoi as kid is much cuter 8D her voices irritates me somehow, though. And what's up with these boin boin lately in the shows. o: |
ZoiQ said: Nanaka not so cute :< I thought her beauty was what made this episode good =[ |
| hmmm i thought it was okay but not great im just gonna keep watching until i make my mind up if i want to continue or not but so far its on a thin line of me wanting to drop it |
 |
| Aoi's voice is something I have to get use to. Her slap and his reaction at the end was funny. |
| I actually liked this episode and this series looks to be a good love comedy. I don't mind the voices at all. I liked how this episode ended and I'm looking forward to the next one. |
| "meh" is what I would call my overall first impression of this show. The OP and ED are ok. The art is very generic an the show follows the normal harem cliches. The only character I like so far is Nanaka. |
 |
| I thought it was alright. Nothing to overly special but nothing to really write off at the moment (except Aoi's voice, I have a feeling it's going to get really irritating). Considering how the episode ended I'm looking forward to the next episode. |
 |
| Meh is pretty much all i can say.... Aoi's voice was super annoying(as everyone mentionned already...), and almost nothing happened in the episode. I'll check another episode or 2 before judging this series... Currently i doubt i'll follow it to the end. |
| Seems like this'll start as a plain show and turn into something interesting. Anybody notice we have 2 female seiyuu from Higurashi? XD Oh yeah forgot this part. The op was a bit "meh" but ED is another story. Kanako Itou has some great game songs, and this was a great anime song. Not as great as the game ones, but good nonetheless. |

 ilu Mathes. thanks for awesome Beato sig. <3 ilu mah_marina. thanks for awesome Beato icon. <3 |
| The OP and ED were both pretty good, but Aoi's gonna drive me crazy if I keep watching this show. I might be able to hold on for 13 episodes, but I'm not sold yet. I have to agree with the majority so far that the story seems kinda bland so far. Hopefully something interesting will happen though. |
| I didn't hate the anime, but that voice is going to kill me... |
     |
| Yeah I agree Aoi's voice is beyond annoying but I like the part where she said " close your ears, this is where the spoilers start", that made me lol. Anyways this anime doesn't seem too bad, and the way the characters look reminds me of sola,. Well I'm going to be following this anime, it's not like I have better to do :P, and it's only 13 episodes. |
 |
| well, noticed some "err" ness in the art.. flaws.. weird faces.. Aoi's voice is fail, though she is kinda cute.. Nanaka is win. I think it might end up pretty interesting. I hope it strays away from regular old harem stuffs. :D |
| Sorry, but Tomoko Kaneda's voice should really not be used for anyone but Chiyo and equivalent aged characters. Definitely got on my nerves. I did, however, smile a little at Yukari Tamura getting a role. And Mai Nakahara I suspect is that grey-haired girl in the credits.. Ami Koshimizu too. Overall I didn't mind the voice acting. Art is "okay", music is "okay", voice acting is "okay", plot is likely to be cliche but we'll have to see. I'm a sucker for these sorts of shows, though, so I'll probably keep watching to the end. What intrigued me the most was the band scene in the OP. If that actually ends up happening in the series, and takes a decent amount of screentime-- it could definitely be interesting. |
    |
| One of the reasons that I will probably not drop this is Mai Nakahara. :D |

Tanuki said: What intrigued me the most was the band scene in the OP. If that actually ends up happening in the series, and takes a decent amount of screentime-- it could definitely be interesting. Yeah, that and something interesting about Nanaka are really the only things I'm holding out hope for right now. |
| Watched it on a whim because I heard of the visual novel coming out later this year. I can't say the first episode caught my attention, but I'll probably check out the next few. AnimusNathan said: -Childhood friends -High School If you want to avoid those "plot elements" your best bet is to quit watching anime entirely. |

AnimusNathan said: Wow, what an AMAZING first episode. So many new plot elements I've NEVER seen before. -Childhood friends -One leaves, comes back later -High School -Rushed Romance -Clumsy Girl with high pitched voice -AND SO MUCH MORE Oh come on... It's only been the first freaking episode. Hell I can apply the same exact list to Kanon 2006- and we all know what a horrible anime that was, right? You obviously like Gurren Lagann. Maybe I can make up a list of how "original" Gurren Lagann was after the first episodes. Let's see... -Mechs that combine together to form stronger mechs -insecure, unconfident, male child who is amazing at piloting mechs -the few taking on the insurmountable many -big busted chick in scantily clad clothing -AND SO MUCH MORE And the mech designs...EHHHHHH??!?!?! I wish I would have judged Gurren Lagann like that, and dropped it after episode 3, because it was just sooooo unoriginal and boring the entire time. Instead of doing this crap, lets focus on what they presented that does seem to be orignial. The primary love interest seems to be a shy, violin playing, shrine maiden. We've seen characters similar in the past, but when are they ever the one that is chosen in a harem? That in itself has me very excited. Although, I admit that while I liked her slap at the end, it has me worried that she isn't the same shy/sweet girl she was as a child but may have changed to a generic tsundere. We also haven't yet found out why Sana has suddenly returned. Every time he is talking about it he seems depressed and avoids the subject. That could make for some interesting plot developement, but since it's only been THE FIRST EPISODE, we don't know how its going to turn out. So I actually liked this episode- mainly because the female lead could be the shy type like I was mentioning earlier. I hope the series continues to go well. |
| Its not worth 10 out of 10 Points atm but iam lookin forward to a funny lovestory-thingy~ (I liked Kanon,Suzuka,Futakoi and many many more - i dun care abt the harem-everytime-the-same-plot stuff!Lovestory=Win!) 4+/5 |

I accidently hit "disliked it" instead of "hated it" btw. Sorry. It's the kind I actually don't like. Lol. Why does it have to be so moe when it is not, stop big bewbs @ meganekko with high voice. :< Stop childhood friends & rushed romance nao. (the high pitched voice is something I don't like either 8D) |
| Don't know what I should think about the anime yet. I hoped it takes a while until the maincharacter finds his old friends again, that would have been more interesting I think. The last thing, the male friend screamed when the maincharacter departed from the city (yes, I forgotten all the names of the characters^^'*) is what interests me the most~ Well, I think I will watch this series..although there are only 13 episodes. Don't know. This anime could maybe become something very good, or could be only a stereotype haremthing...let's wait and see~ |
 |
| I fairly enjoyed this episode. the prologue was something we've seen a 1000 times before. Even though its every known romantic-comedy cliché rolled in one, I'll still give it a chance. Tanuki said: What intrigued me the most was the band scene in the OP. If that actually ends up happening in the series, and takes a decent amount of screentime-- it could definitely be interesting. I really liked that part. One of the reasons I'll keep watching. BTW, Aoi is really cute. I can imagine a young Yomiko Readman looking like her . :D |

| So far, it doesn't look terribly impressive, but I feel like it has some potential. Probably nothing that I'll run out and buy, but it should be at least entertaining. |
 |
| It seems like an okay anime to me and I'll look forward to see how the story will evolve. I also hope to hear something about Sana's past 5 years soon. It really made me wonder we he acted as he did when talking to his mother. I'm glad the anime is airing now and I didn't pick it up later because i can now watch it one episode at a time taking a break between each. I guess that'll help me get over Aoi's voice. For some reason it reminds me of Chip and Dale, not that i don't like them but like Aoi's their voices will be too much eventually. Something I really liked in this episode was the spoiler part. :p Really made me laugh. Something I don't understand is why Nanaka hit Sana in the end. Okay, he didn't recognize her. But still... something must have happened apart from that. Hopefully that part of the storyline will show itself soon. |
 |
| Bleh, ep 1 was pretty boring. I am not really sure why I even watched it, as I hate all these stupid moe-moe harem shows. However, the OP animation make it look like all sorts of fantastic things were going to happen, so I will give it another ep to get interesting. I like Ami Koshimizu a lot (Ashita no Nadja!) and one of my favorites, Koyasu Takehito, was in there as the obligatory 'wacky best friend who none of the girls chase after and who is there to provide comedic relief and marvel over how the hero can't just take advantage of all these hot girls chasing after him' Then again, given the type of characters Koyasu plays, maybe his character is after Sana also, and he was really confessing when he was yelling as the train pulled away.. that would make the show MUCH more interesting ^___^ |
| Like Shoujo? Visit: Emily's Random Shoujo Manga Page |
| I kinda liked it, since this is what I thought School Days would have been like. Aoi's voice is a little annoying, but hopefully I'll get over it. Gonna keep watching this. |
 |
| Wow, lots has already been said on here! I don't really know that I can contribute anything further, after reading previous posts. First ep wasn't enough to make me run away screaming, but wasn't edge of my seat either -- then again, how many really are? Will give it another ep or two before making judgment. |
| Holy crap, that girl's voice is incredibly annoying. I'll keep watching to see what happens but I'm not 100% sure I'll be able to finish this one. |

| lol Yeah, that ending line was retarted. And it was predictable too, when it immediately showed the pan to the sky. |
| i cant understand why with so many negative comments most ppl have rated it with 4/5.. Anyway i realy enjoyed the 1st episode and looking forward to the next.. |
 |
| my opinion is "Meh..." Its just the first episode so i wont judge it too much cause it might get better later on, but the plot is kind of unoriginal... Aoi has such a high pitched voice =__=; it reminded me of Chiyo from Azumanga... im wondering if it might be the same seiyu...probably is |
     |
| Yes she is :-) |
|
| If Nanaka were to slap me randomly without me knowing anything, oh how pist off and slap back I'll be. Nothing special so far, it was an OK episode to me. Besides that.. >>; I've already finished this visual novel... wonder if they'll follow the main one. Still yet again Visual novel > Anime. |

I love Sana's grey jacket and "G shock" watch. +Aoi's mom looked like Tanaka from Higurashi. oh yeah..that part at about 18 minutes was about his morning wood eh? EEEEEHHHHHHHHHHH?! |

| Not a bad first ep! Aoi's voice sounds like a 6 year old kid even though she's 15. I couldn't help but shout PWNED! when Sana got b!tch slapped! I want to see what happens next...o_O |

Ditto on that. I'd really like to see if that comes to be. I didn't think it was all too horrible. Yes, like everyone has said, Aoi's voice got on my nerves in about three minutes, but I'm not going to drop a show just for that. Hopefully the plot will hold together. |

| 0 god i kno what u mean about Aoi's bad casting or what! i dont think the show is as bad as some people hav been said but it not that good i think i will give it a few more eps or it will b dropped! |
 |
| It was fairly good. Nothing amazing, but I'm fond of the animation and the characters seem interesting enough. Hated Aoi's voice, but I like her as a character... loved her book speel. XD Also, both the OP and ED were win. I really, really want to see that band scene! >w< |

| Bleh. The only part I liked about this episode was when Nanaka slapped - I suddenly forgot the main character's name. Ah, anyway. Since this is only 13 episodes, I might keep it. Maybe if they decide Aoi's not that much of a main character to get so much screen time >.< |
