Humor was a hit and miss with me as well. But overall it does seem interesting and fun. I look forward to seeing what kind of direction it takes.

LOL XD Well it's not labelled shoujo-ai nor yuri. I assume the romance concerns Maria and the new chick.

I agree. While it wasn't hilarious, it was interesting.

I watched this out of sheer SHAFT-Fanboyism and I wasn't disappointed. You did it once again, Shinbou-sama.

Though it's funny how they recycled almost the entire Zetsubou Sensei Cast. So many recognizable voices. >.<

Not only the cast reminded me of SZS. Some angles and the way of switching them also felt very, very familiar. Not a a bad thing though.

nice anime, though it looks like a combination of Lovely Complex, Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru, and Strawberry Panic.


:] *looking forward to it*

The first episode was quite good, the well written script by Yokotani Masahiro and the nice direction of episode director Miyamoto Yukihiro introduced the audience very well to the series and kept me interested all over the episode. The animation could be better, but the unmistakeable style of Shinbou and Shaft made the visuals once more interesting, although it lacked a bit the freshness of its predecessors (like ef, zetsubou sensei,...).

Just saw the first episode. So far it looks good, nice animation, good music, and nice characters. Poor Kanako, she just arrived and already she got a hell of a problem..
Can't wait until the next episode!

I've watched the 1st episode about 3 times, it's now my favorite new anime.

If an anime can make a straight guy like a trap, it has to be good.

Hmm, does this mean I should be offended by anything that portraits a straight person turning gay? I think niwa took that way too offensively.

I don't think I exactly like the art of this anime, but I'll surely get used to it. I had forgotten the synopsis, so the cross-dressing boy was a bit of surprise for me. Normally I wouldn't like this kind of a show, but I'll stick to it for a few episodes.

The show's definitely off to a good start. I really enjoy Shinbo's work and I'm glad his techniques work well here too. It's not as frantic as other shows the man has done, but that works considering that a lot of the gags aren't quite as in your face. I'm definitely gonna stick with this show and see where it goes.

That's a great beginning. The setting is unique and therefore I expect the storyline to be great too. The scene with the blackmailing was hilarious. How calm he was while making a scene. What a weasel.

Great animation, great humor, great voice actresses, I'm pretty sure almost all of them worked on SZS too. Akiyuki Shinbo certainly has his style and strong preferences.

The only thing that might get on my nerves is that weak Kanako, if she continues to let Mariya walk all over her she could get annoying really fast. I hate it when characters don't fight back.
Other than that, it looks awesome.

Point is, you can't really turn anyone into anything if they weren't that way from the start. The unconscious likes to make our lives complicated, you see.

And c'mon, she's portrayed as a freak. If the show isn't intending to be offensive it's sure is bad at it.

I absolutely adored the episode! I don't think I ever laughed so hard on a first episode xD

That croch grab was priceless xD
I was laughing for I don't know how long -_-'

And the idea of Mariya showing in the begining going all "please turn off the lights since it is my first time" :D So amusing


really looking foward for the next one

The first episode gave me a Kuroshituji-vibe. Not only does Maria have a weird relation with her servant (who harbors a devil inside) she herself is really unique personality that is threatening in that cute kind of way. Just like Ciel and Sebastian. So far it's the best of this season, I have only seen 3 so far and the other two being harem that this would be better was pretty much given :P

The animations was also very Shafty and that is just meant in a good way. Can't wait for the next episode.

This one looks like a keeper. The lesbian protagonist is such a horny ditz and the cross-dressing guy was pretty predictable but it makes for so much fun. Let's see if he can turn her bisexual at least (assuming she's all out les).

But is it just me or was that dog kinda...on the creepy side.... O_o?

It was funny enough but I'm not sure if it can hold my interest to keep my going the full season. I'll give it another 1-2 episodes to catch my interest.


That.

I like the SHAFT art style, like the music, the comedy was alright, but I wonder if the premise is going to hold my interest. I'll give it a couple episodes to see where it goes.
