yes i enjoyed the heck out of the first episode, and will watch it to the end! The animation is beautiful, but then again A-1 Pictures is doing the animation for it so of course it is :3

Wasn't expecting much from this at the beginning but It turned out to be a really funny first episode. The protagonist reminds me a lot to Hinako from Hinako Note especially for her "shy" and calm personality and for her twintails. And also, Idk why but Kaho (Best Guuuuuuuuuuurl!!) reminds me a little bit of Tohru from Kobayashi...

Anyway, It was better than I expected so it would be nice to watch this anime every week!

These are all the character types needed to make the perfect Cute-Girls-Doing-Nothing anime I have fallen in love with so very much... not really, it really just needs to be cute and slightly decent. Character are fine, anime is cute as hell, nothing happens, I'll be around until the end of the season.

This is one of the most self-away anime I've seen.
An anime, about anime girls, deliberately acting, like specific anime archetypes.
The idea of a deadpan loli acting like a generic imouto is fucking hilarious.
But it went beyond: a masochistic character who not only happens to be a foreigner, but shows actual, legit, cultural differences, rather than just say, "he's a foreigner".
That's dope man.
So many great anime coming out this season.

I think summarizing that character design as just "short" is an understatement...

There are plenty of women in real life who are that short.
Hell if anything, her short design just adds diversity.

Sweet, this episode was like the ideal slice of life and funny episode to begin things off. Every single character in this show is likable and the girls are all so adorable, this was just great!
Maika's sadistic character, Kaho's tsundere act, Mafuyu's Imouto display along with Kouyou's rage and the Manager's kiddish behaviors was just a perfect blend really. It's a pity that Maika has been rejected numerous times for her dreadful looking eyes, but at least she has found people who accept her as she is and respect that now. This episode gave off vibes from www.Working!! which is one of my favorites life of life show, and so I hope this show will do as good and hopefully even better, I'm liking this cast of characters more than that of www.Working!! after all.
Overall, a solid and hilarious first episode and I'll definitely stick around till the end provided it doesn't disappoint immensely.

I'm glad Maika found a part-time job, I wish I could find a job easily like that.

This reminds me of Piace: Watashi no Italian, but it's not 100% copied. Still both of these are veryyyy similar. We have a girl searching for a job, and a male lead that comes from Italy.

Wow, I didn't expect that little girl (ahem... I mean college girl) liked magical girls. That was so cute!!

This is so cute and funny. Maika can really pull of that sadistic psycho act. I love it.

This appears to fit quite nicely in the spot that New Game!! occupied in my heart last season. Maika is pretty adorable, and Kaho is simply awesome. I've already read what few translated chapters of the Blend S source manga there is, and I'm pretty satisfied by the first episode of the adaptation. Dat greeting kiss. Looking forward to more of Blend S!

It was one of the most anime series I was waiting for. The expectations have not been disappointed, indeed you went beyond, happy!
But now I'm worried that after this first such crackling episode there may be a drop in narration and plot as far as ideas are concerned; I hope not. Excellent designs, the protagonists have already had a good characterization, even the backgrounds are pretty beautiful.

Can someone read this name? That's the VA for Maika's older sister



Her screech right at the beginning sounds like one from a hentai. That got me curious.

Is the order a working's magic?? Never a losing formula though. Two and two always makes a four
Closer to Nekogumi than Inugumi maybe, Neko had more gimmicky characters probably so

Of the two CGDCTs this season I think this will be a bit better, the characters are cuter, which is, well, the most important quality of a CGDCT

Rather sprightly ED considering the genre

Loved this episode!! I thought the adaption would have short episodes because of the chapter length, but it did pretty good. I was looking forward to seeing Maika kiss Dino on the cheek and Dino's reaction so I'm satisfied. I was especially excited for Dino's character as well, am I the only one?

I love Kaho ♥

OP and ED were great.

This was fun. She's a natural sadist and I'm one of those who likes sadistic girls. She reminds me quite a lot of Ririchiyo from Inu x Boku, who I'm also fond of.

As soon as the OP started I went into cardiac arrest. This show is TOO cute and charming oh my goodness. Each moment is funny, my only worry is if the humor of the Manager getting a nosebleed will get kind of stale as the anime progresses. But none the less I love the comedic way they show cliche anime tropes and how different each girl is, also a bonus, so far in episode one there isn't that one extremely annoying character yet.

May I ask, the blonde earlier in the show is the manager?

I thought this series is something that don't really expected for this season. But this series is actually pretty good and cute...


Well some light series for this season won't hurt. Looking forward for more... Probably my best CGDCT series for this season, but I watched Konohana Kitan too for this season so It might be hard to choose for me...
