| The OP was good with many cameos but what I liked was the ED, it was very nice. The episode was very interesting. I wonder how the girls will react when they will found out that Kurano is not who she seems to be. |

| Great first episode, Tsukimi is adorable. One of the best this season. |
| Holy shit, this show is freaking awesome. :D |
    |
| Woahh.! Love it. Is different, and I hope For romance. Ahh. This anime has a bright future. |
| Well, this is a pleasant surprise. I'm not sure how to even describe it. Feels strange and completely normal at the same time. Should be a good comedy anime, at any rate. HawthorneKitty said: Nope, never heard of her. Can't find any good roles on her page, either.I'm pretty sure people are watching this for Mamiko Noto. Correct me if I'm wrong. |
| This was really sweet. I'm psyched to see where it goes. I loved the OP! The James Bond part was my favorite. |

Not a bad episode. I'm interested to see how this plays out. I can't understand wanting to keep a jellyfish as a pet though. And even with a sign, a jellyfish in a bathtub is just asking for trouble.  |
 |
| OP was funny! I'm hooked on this one based off the OP. |
 |
| I can easily see this becoming a very fun & charming series to watch. And Tsukimi is pretty cute....in her own dorkable way (DEM EYEBROWS) |

That was my thought, too -- "something is wrong with these subs". I mean, they translated fujoshi literally ("rotten girl" instead of female otaku) and they called people "hipsters", so I wouldn't put it past them to translate that incorrectly, either. Although I must say his reaction of "No, I'm normal" (if that was translated correctly) pissed me off. |
mrSmiles said: alright first episode, it looks like Mayaya is going to be quite an annoying character in the series, at least for me. Thank god I'm not the only one. But other than that, this looks like it could be pretty good. I'm praying for minimal Mayaya, though. |

| Wow. This was just wonderful!! I can't find anything that I didn't like! Sambomaster's ED is really nice! The chibi jellyfish is terribly cute and the characters are quite ... peculiar so far. I'm really looking forward to the next episode! :D |

HawthorneKitty said: Donno about her character but Kana Hanazawa as Tsukimi is love <3I'm pretty sure people are watching this for Mamiko Noto. Correct me if I'm wrong. Oh, how can I forget that little kawaii jellyfish~ |
LucySky said: HawthorneKitty said: I'm pretty sure people are watching this for Mamiko Noto. I'm watching it for the jellyfish :) ^second that lmao. OK, not only for it but that jellyfish is damn cute. XD |
| Best first ep this season, and I love the art! Can't wait for the next ep, I'm wondering how the series is gonna go. |
| lol~, Saiga-san's role is a boy who likes to wear girl's outfit! LOVE IT!! |
I ♥ Two Syaorans from Tsubasa RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE and TRC!!! |
| This was absolutely awesome. The first first episode I've seen this season that didn't disappoint me (along with Bakuman). I can't wait for episode 2! |

I think she called him "okama" which means sth like effeminate gay/+transsexual and his reply was meant to mean he was straight, not gay. lol, I've already watched this episode 3 times and laughed out loud every time. |
| Best surprise this season! I'm really happy with this anime actually working, because all the others (except for Bakuman and some episodes of Zakuro) have been a big disappointment |

 "A Legend is but a tale of a beautiful lie." |
| For a first episode, i really liked it. And it's not my cup of tea. :) Loved the OP. |
 |
| Whaahh, now this is what you call FABULOUS. Anticipation was high, and now it's definitely my #1 watch, seeing how Index has let me down a bit.. NeedmangafromStarComicsnow. |
| It was surprisingly funny, especially that Heidi parody. |
| a tranny...wow i gotta admit i wasn't expecting that but this is probably one of the better shows this season along with bakuman :) |

Yes, exactly. Haruhi Fujioka's father was an 'okama': dressed like a woman, yet straight. |
| Here is some translation stuff: Tsukimi: オカマの人ですか？ (Are you an 'okama'?) "Okama" can mean a cross-dresser but also a gay person. The implication is that she is asking him whether he is gay. To which he responds: Kuranosuke: え？違うよ。女装は趣味でやってるだけ。俺、ノーマルだもん。(No, I just cross-dress [wear women's clothing] as a hobby. I'm normal.) Now, "normal" can mean normal just as it does in English, but it can also be used to mean "straight sexual orientation," and it seems to me that in this case, it does mean straight. Furthermore, later on he says: Kuranosuke: 大丈夫、襲ったりしないから。(Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. [Literally: I won't attack you.] [Has a sexual implication]) It gives context to this statement if we assume earlier on he has asserted he is straight. That isn't my translation by the way, I found it here: http://forums.animesuki.com/showthread.php?t=93774&page=5 Hopefully that clears some stuff up. |
 What "Adolescence" do you have? Do you remember "Childhood"? The irreplaceable one existed there. |
| I'm not used to watch animes as quirky as this one, but I enjoyed the first episode. I'll keep watching it. The op is superb! |
wakka9ca said: Glad I'm not the only one :3I'm planning to give this 10/10 is this keeps up. |
| Was looking forward to this and it didn't disappoint. Can't wait for the next episode! |
  |
| Wow that was great haha |
 |
| This series kinda came out oof nowhere for me. Or, I had previously read a little about this but it just didn't sound appealing. Boy was I wrong; Tsukimi's an adorable main and the rest of the fujoshis are really quirky but have an awesome chemistry. I will deffinitely follow this and see were it heads. |
 |
| Wow, very interesting episode! Seriously thought Miyaya was a guy at first, but I totally knew the pink haired "girl" was a guy :P OP, ED were good, music is cool so far. Looking forward to the next episode! |
| Weird yet brilliant. 5! (out of 5) :3 |

| I love weird shows like this, I like shows about Otaku/nerd culture period. It's pretty funny as well, definitely gonna keep watching this. |
| Excellent first episode! I am really looking forward to the rest of this series. VERY refreshing characters and I love the twist, haha!! It's so quirky and the details are really nice. I paused to look at little things like her drawings, etc. Like another person said, I had a smile the whole time I was watching this ep. :) <333 Awesome beginning. I feel very satisfied! |
| haha I thought Saiga Mitsuki voicing a woman would be interesting and it turned out that it is a dude! I had fun watching this! 5/5 |

Looking forward to the next episode! I also thought that Mayaya was a guy at first too but until she in the house with the other girls i realise that she was actually a girl and a weird one at that. |
 |
| I can't believe I was almost not going to watch this. Love at first watch. |
 |
| This will be very interesting. The art's a bit weird. I look forward to it. |
| I read people's comments about this and decided to watch it without knowing anything about it, and I am really glad I did. It is very refreshing, and looks to be only better as we get new episodes. And how can we resist that cute jellyfish? |
