I loved this first episode.

Wakana Gojou is a simple boy who likes to paint dolls and everything related to them, to the point of talking to them. Marin Kitagawa is a popular charming girl from the same school as his. She loves anime and manga, and want to make a Shizuku's cosplay; a character she really likes. Marin asked Wakana to make the outfit for her, and even though he never did clothes for people he will try his best. Let the show begin!

I liked the opening and ending, they are sweet. The animation is great as well.

That was surprisingly good. And the animation is gorgeous. Wait... these are the same thoughts i had when i saw Wonder Egg. Cloverworks please don't ruin this...

I read manga for the story
I watch anime for animation and fanservice

So yeah personally i like this average anime hahaha

We finally get to watch the first episode of this amazing series! I love the manga a lot and this episode did not disappoint. Marin is really best girl of this season!
Voice actors fit the characters perfectly and they sound as I thought they would whilst reading it.

Looking forward to the next episode!

Just the one scene has me primed to watch another episode, where he has the misunderstanding that she's vamping him... then turns on the Serious Mode when it comes to the shabby workmanship. THIS dress is the same as the pic? B***h plz! Haha.

I know a little bit about the manga so I was excited about this one and fuck yeah, this first episode was great!

Marin is love, Marin is life <3. We are just starting the year and she is already best girl of the year haha, I love her so much! By the way, quite the title of the series to which Marin's favorite character is from lol. Pretty appropriate reaction from Gojou I must say xD.

I liked it. One of the ones I was waiting for (from the new ones, not from other seasons) and it was a good episode.
And yes, Kitagawa is very pretty.
The opening is nice and the ending is good.
PS: When Kitagawa says the name of the series hahaha.

It's almost as if a anime adaptation is supposed to elevate the source material, crazy right?

Btw, the manga is very popular in Japan long before the anime.

Wtf, like what the fuck, what in the holy fuck did I just watch. This anime, the damn shining that it is, is a fucking beauty!!!.

Every minute of this first episode is a blessing, and wow we're in for a great ride. So it seems that I can instantly relate to a character, in the form of Gojou. His interests are different from the norm, and for a certain edgy anime MC, they can respect that. And then there's this Marin gal, which I'll be honest, I'm a little fazed off her. But if I'm going to be more honest, in any given moment that she's in the screen, she is FILLING UP my energy instantaneously and the smile on my face is CONSISTENT. It's been a DAMN LONG TIME since I've enjoyed an instant best girl in an anime.

The chemistry between our two leads (just like in Slow Loop, Police in a Pod, and ofc Takagi-san) is already on a positive start right from the get-go. And even though they live in opposite worlds, their mutual interests led to a birth of a friendship. Oh and fanservice...damn would I enjoy them in my imagin---

Anyways, nice start for the series. Just like Akebi-chan, I got a lot of screenshots from this episode (maybe a bit more than Akebi). So with Akebi-chan taking on the WEP animation greatness, and with My Dress-Up Darling taking on Horimiya similarities, CloverWorks is on a very good start for this Winter 2022 season. Let's just hope that Tokyo 24 would not end up like TPN 2...that's a tangent not worth ignoring.

Protagonist has a weird taste but it didn't bother me, although he likes dolls a lot, it is still something strange.

Ngl, ain't a fan of Gojo from this episode. He came across as annoying more than anything to me for some reason. Marin's ight. Anime looks pretty atleast and I like the amount of movement shown through its animation here to make everyone feel more alive in this series and not have everyone be robots. Just wish I dug Gojo and concept of the series a lot more besides just Marin wanting Gojo to design cosplay fits for her. Don't really feel the chemistry from ep 1 but time should be able to fix that.
Yeah, this is probably intentional for character development purposes. Also it kinda makes sense he’s like this because it said he haven’t made a single friend until high school + that incident in his childhood

Oh I'm really going to love this anime, I can feel it. Its going to be a treat every Saturday afternoon. This first episode nailed it in the character dynamics and the plot. Not to mention how fluid the animation was with the girl and other areas. Also the ed is stylized always a good sign for a diamond of a anime, shows how much the animators care about the show. If you can't tell, I'm already hooked on this show.

BTW I have a friend who does cosplay and I can already tell she's going to love this show.

Sono Bisque Doll wa Koi wo Suru is my most awaited anime of Winter 2022. I was not disappointed one bit by the first episode. Everything was amazing. Watching the series showed me how Kitagawa likes cosplay and was impressed by Gojou's hobby, that’s why she asked him to make her cosplay clothes. And as things progress, she slowly influences Gojou in this world of her own. I love how she influences him. I'll give this a 10/10 for now. I am very excited about the next episode!

I didn’t know about this series until I saw it on the live chart, and then I found out it’s highly anticipated, and I can see why now, this was a very good first episode. I went in not really knowing what to expect besides the genres, but man it really delivered. The show looks very good, as expected of Cloverworks, and the plot is pretty unique, I didn’t know how much I would like it based on the synopsis but I can say I was pleasantly surprised, the main characters are definitely a great duo. I can also see Kitagawa being a best girl of the season for many, not sure about myself but we shall see, and I really like Gojo too. I can probably say I will 100% enjoy this going forward.

And the OP and ED were both very good, both had a very good song and were great visually. Can see them being favorites by the end of the season.

Seems like you would be one of these person judging him as a weird person because of his hobby and isolating him, he did literally nothing to come across as a annoying person, imagine you being just a boy developing a taste for something, and a girl, probably a childhood friend, saying to your face you shouldn't like something because you're a boy, and that is disgusting and she hates you, this is something really traumatizing for a kid, and honestly, he grew up a lot better compared to what would be with many other boys in his place, probably because he had his grandpa support, he wasn't even acting like he's superior and others are trash, he is simply a introvert/depressive guy that feels out of place because he doesn't know how to comunicate with others through his fear of being mocked/judged.

Runway de Waratte is a total different genre tho
Kisekoi is mainly about having fun and relationships while Runway is mostly about serious competition and both different parts of modeling and high couture making.
thank you so much. That's what I wanted to hear.

The MC is pretty realistic, I like it, the detail of remembering some small conversation through days was beautiful, and his "trauma" is so insignificant that it is good, the strength of words is sometimes amazing. I liked the start, the issue of being yourself and doing what you want is being tackled correctly, and the visuals and ost are some good quality. Hope they do some focus on sewing, the concepts that they threw around were interesting

Marin-chan finally makes her anime debut. So glad to see her emotions and movement come to life.
Also Gojo's VA does a good job of changing voices based on emo's and exp.

Best girl of 2022 already confirmed in the first week of 2022??

A really great premiere. Art is good, Cloverworks showing something good again. Characters are really likable, especially Marin.

"You just don't go making fun of things people clearly like." The quote that definitely sold the show for me. Definitely hit a bit on a personal level, as I've been plagued with the "Hobby-shaming" in my youth..

Overall so far the best premiere this season right now and I am so far surprised with the solid performances of the VA's. Also for some reason I didn't expect to see this kind of fanservice here, but it's pretty well done and there's bound to be more, so I welcome it!

Introvert dude with self-esteem issues meets super genki otaku gyaru hottie? Gojou is definitively living the dream!

Decent start overall. I can already tell Marin will be among this season's best girls without a doubt.

So... how did she exactly manage to fly like that?

Ik it's too early to say from the first ep but I see why there are a lot who love its manga. I don't know why everything in this animation is so pretty from the characters itself, to the bg, up to the littlest thing on it. This is sparkling in everyone's eyes! Cloverworks really put a lot of their resources for this and I could say that it is a success.

Also searched for both mains' VA since I am not familiar with them and it's quite surprising that they are amateurs. They did a good job to portray the necessary emotion for their respective characters.

Marin as a new top-tier waifu to be added on the list? Definitely a YES!

good start i been looking forward to this was lewder than i was expecting and i didn't know of the actual doll making aspect with Gojo while he seems a bit creepy with his admiration to his craft hes quite skilled a making clothes

so all i can sum this up as Gal-ko 2.0 and smile down the runway but it's for cosplay instead of modeling

and gosh does it look nice but uh cloverworks is a big red flag

The animation was better than I was expecting, especially after watching the other Winter 2022 anime, but frankly I thought the main girl was by far the worst part of the show. I cannot stand her, she is just an annoying gyaru and she ruined the first episode for me. I realise I am in the minority here but I might end up dropping this early on just because of her.
