Great animation as always from PA Works. As for the episode itself, it was a complete mess. Most character interactions just came off as awkward. Regardless, looking forward to my weekly dose of sparkles.

I don't like the setting, actually I don't even know what is this show about, just SOL with twisted polygon romance? Meh. It's sure though that shippers are gonna enjoy this show.

Anyway I'll wait some more episodes to judge.

I really like the setting.. somehow. The art is incredibly good and the characters are not having annoying high-pitched voices.. none at all actually. I actually like the fact that more people in here are (easy to see) in love with someone.

Hoping this anime will turn out great, because I didn't like Tari Tari so much.

This anime feels like Nagi no Asukara V.2

Pretty dissappointed. Was hoping for an anime about glassblowing, would have been pretty cool. instead its another boring (horrible) love polygon. Dropped.
Lol. After episode 1 you already feel secure enough to judge a show that might go in various directions? Thats irrational. Get your shit straight, man.


I agree that people shouldn't judge animes based on their first episode but, do you really believe that this particular anime will go to a direction other than a polygonal romance drama crap?

Kinda disappointed me a bit...
I wanted it to focus more on some glassblowing, and i wish they gave more depth at the first episode. I couldn't enjoy the watch properly. the atmosphere wasn't as nice as i hoped for, the voice acting is a bit too high-pitched sometimes, and i feel that i just haven't gotten enough of information regarding the characters or what's really going on.

What's up with that voice from Okikura in Touko's head at the festival, and that "i've saw what you saw that day" part?
why is uh, forgot the names already but why is ms. skeptic and mr. runner living together? they don't look like each other and don't have the same surname. are they family, or friends just staying over for a time, or non related-siblings?
Sachi standing up and say "what's wrong with you?" were kinda interesting though
either she's sensitive to how she feels about other people, or maybe Okikura said something that ticked her off, or she's angry for mr. runner's behalf.

Oh well, not gonna drop it yet. Gonna watch 5 episodes and judge it then whether i wanna continue on it or not.

I smell a love polygon but since this is P.A. works we are talking about, it will probably be an open ending.

I dont know about you guys but I though it was an ok episode.

The ed is ay nano.ripe nice.

You're missing one arrow. All the girls should have an interest of some sort in the new guy.

In fact, if Nagi's plot were to be followed, the arrow that's missing will be the one that works out in the end. :P

Hmm, not really my cup of tea. I like the scenery, but there's too much cutesy moments there for me to stomach. Disgusting.

And what's up with the hostility in the end? I feel like that's coming out of nowhere and rather off-putting. Makes absolutely no sense. That better not be how the director intend to create drama for the entire season.

I don't think Sachi is interested in the new guy. If anything, I think she had a very bad impression of him. She likes Yukinari, hence she was upset when the new guy invoked anger and jealousy from him. There should be an arrow extending from Yanagi to the new guy :P

always have a soft spot for PA.Works mainly because i could just watch their scenery all day

not surprised it's another SoL/romance but after Nagi i think they've stepped up there drama so this could turn out good too,and as much as i wanted them to do something different we would end up with something like Red data girl again...

Seems like a good episode. Great visuals as expected from PA Works. Some of the cast kinda remind me of Nagi no Asukara.

Touka=Manaka
Okikura=Tsumugu
Yukinari=Hikari
Yanagi=Chisaki

So what did they saw that day?

It would be cool if Okikura had Tsumugu's voice actor. They look almost identical. Found out he actually had the same voice actor as Kaname.

Luckily there's three guys and three girls, so romance won't be a problem right? RIGHT?!

I really liked how this anime just jumped right in. Especially with the introducing of characters. Usually it can get pretty akward and unatural when characters introduce themselves.
Not to mention that the characters are third year students in the beginning, wich is unusual.
In other words, at first glance it's your typical slice of life/romance type of show, but it's small details like this that, at least for me, makes it stand out.

Also is has a ano natsu de matteru feel to it wich i really like.

Nice and sweet episode.
I guess the first episode was to show the characters.

I got alot of Nagi no Asukara vibes, which ain't a bad thing, since I loved that show.
I am praying we will actually get some couples out of this and not leave them open.
So far I like all the characters, but I am kind of diggin Yanagi ~_~

Oh I know what you mean. There was one that was really long, but there were also a few other still frames that were noticeable too. Hopefully there won't any be more those, or limit to like one per episode or something so that I won't be noticing them so much :P

Yeah, I noticed the other still frames too, but they weren't too long and I didn't mind... but that one long kinda irked me... it felt like I was watchig a cheap anime frm years back... oh well, as long as it's not too often, i wont complain since the other parts were amazingly well done


Funny ppl keep mentionin Nagi no Asukura comparisons... I'm actually watching Nagi halfway at this moment, and Ifind boh animes very different. Glasslip seems far inferior atm -_-... also, despite the cast being older, Glasslip feels more childish and light hearted... also, Nagi gave off a very exotic feel (well, expected sice it's set in an alternate world)... then agn, this is only the first episode..

EDIT: @Zelgadis... yeah, I guess it's just personal taste... sorry if I sound rude saying it looks like a cheap anime thing... just my kinda feeling at the time. If it's worth anything, I did like the other still frames to a certain extent, jus not the long one -_-.


show as a whole, probably, plot will develop in a diff way than nagi, cant say for anyone else, but my nagi reference to it an this show was simply the characters/relation mapping, apparent in the op of the first ep

like others, only thing that threw me off, is why sachi is upset/angry guess well find out next ep

Animation is fucking beautiful but that's the only thing I can praise this anime of (so far).

But giving my first impressions, I'm not really liking the direction they're putting in the first episode like already "antagonizing" the main love interest for the girls and especially how he's antagonizing himself (not directly but it's there).

I really like how the characters look in this anime though. In Nagi no Asukara, the characters seem to be very fluid or jelly-like or SOMETHING which isn't my cup of tea but in this they look solid and just BEAUTIFUL.

But yeah, I will be tuning in next week and the more weeks to come if this is the so called "anime of the season".

Actually, P.A. Works does make quite a variety of shows. However, they seem to be going more of the Kyoto Ani/HS drama route lately.

Hell, I think in one sequence, they made Cannan (which is an action/mystery series), followed by Angel Beats! (a supernatural romantic drama), and then Another (a thriller/horror series).

I think P.A. Works is starting to fall into a pattern with their anime though that's becoming quite noticeable. But hey, I wouldn't complain if they made another anime as good as Hanasaku Iroha. That was a pretty damn good anime.

I like, looks promising. I only hope proper and good development for characters, the rest seems very nice so far. I hope is not so annoying and silly like Tari Tari and not so cheesy and melodramatic like Nagi no Asukara. Hanasaku Iroha is pure greatness though, and I would like it more similar to it.

Looking good so far. P.A. Works as usual impresses me with the beautiful art style and animation while the OP & ED fit pretty well.

The chickens & ED easily remind me of True Tears, which is a good thing. =3

Although I do see a love hexagon being formed pretty soon considering what the preview for episode 2 showed.

Yeah I hope it sticks with these too and doesn't get messy. Although if it does, I can see Yanagi x David happening. I'd rather it not though. Yukinari is obviously whipped and jealous... Not a good combo. He needs to get over Touko asap.
I get the feeling Yukinari isn't going to end up with Touko in the end. Haven't read the manga or anything like that but just based on my instincts.

This is certainly going to be a nice show to watch on summer nights, I like how laid back it is. The chickens bit cracked me up. I like how they use subtle expressions to show the characters rather than tell, such as when Yukinari is looking at Touko and Yanagi gazes at him.

For a very first episode was a bit boring. But I like several parts of this episode.

1. The animation of the fireworks was excellent. And I mean, An episode with the subtitle "fireworks" it was obvious the most important part.

2. LOL, that Touko really loves chicken and makes a lot of trouble only to "save" them.
