If this isn't the greatest show of all time then I just don't know what is.

I mean, I get people complaining because there's no plot or whatever, but how many anime get this creative? It's ridiculous, hilarious, and awesome.

@Zadion And where is that creativity? Normally I would assume people praising series like this just don't know any better and haven't seen many series to have any comparison, but it's long past the point of being relatively bad, it's just bad, period.

A mock trojan horse and a giant cyclops primate in a hot spring is my idea of creative. So is turning Cthulhu into moe. I haven't seen any other anime that plays around with silly ideas the way this one does.

Creative plot? no

Creative world building? yes

I assume people criticizing this series see the things I love about it as stupid and irredeemable, but I fail to understand why.

That's one way to go about the obligatory onsen/beach episode, I guess. After the utter butchering of quantum physics and basic biology that the previous episode was, can't say I'm too displeased with this one; miht have been a bit cringey at times but at least I managed to get a laugh out of a couple scenes.

That's just me nitpicking but Reina refusing to eat the phantom because he doesn't look appetizing has to be the most bullshit excuse the writers could've come up with in order to be able to pull off that "Haruhiko goes to phantom world with his Monkey hubby" ending; need I remind them that this bitch didn't seem to mind eating an entire cemetery and utility poles before?
Anyway, I'm curious to see how the show is gonna try to explain how Haruhiko managed to escape his Monkey spouse next week lol

@Zadion No offence but it sounds more like low standards or little exposure to anime and manga as a medium, rather than this show being underappreciated. Things you mentioned are as creative as bread and butter for breakfast. Not to mention they are not world building, one of many things this show lacks, but simple plot devices. Maybe this show wouldn't suck so badly if it actually had some world building to make the viewer give a damn about what is going on there. Of course someone might say it's not that important because it's a comedy series, but then again, why it isn't funny?

The only good part about this episode was when Haruhiko drank the water Ruru bathed in.

My exposure to animanga as a whole is relatively low when compared to many users on this site, but nonetheless not inefficient enough where I enjoy everything I watch. And I dunno, but to me, it works. It piles on silly scenarios I haven't seen in other anime (similar or not) and, while I agree it's not especially funny, I tend to have a smile plastered on my face every episode.

It's stupid, yeah, and probably objectively poor, but it hits a niche I enjoy and I can't see anything here but good, lighthearted fun.

Yeah that's exactly how I feel about the show.

It doesn't do anything jarringly bad and it does what it sets out to do. To make you smile.

Another hot springs with pink monkeys around episode.
uppperclassmen are such weaklings, but hey!, at least the three upperclasswomen are maturely hot (them with water powers). But pink cyclops monkey is just too OP!
Mai was grossly licked not only once but twice!
LOL at the scene where all of the students were useless!
A Trojan Horse was even dumb plan!
Reina allure plan was also fail but at least she was moe & Kurumi is still adorably cute!
Koito trying to seduce but ends-up being much scarier!
Mai was ragingly sekushi on the scene where Haruhito paints him red!
What the hell!?! Haruhito could still summon even without his sketchbook! Taco again!? octopus fetishes again "Cthulhu".
Mai blushes again to Haruhito...sweet!
Sensei's mizugi was over the hotness! I wish she took her white coat off!
LOL at Haruhito...he became the bride crossdress of pink cyclops monkey phantom!
5/5.

Excuse me for vomiting earlier but this episode was complete and utter shit. Awkward, weird, disgusting, disturbing, creepy, retarded, horrendous, abortion of an episode. I know this is supposed to be a comedy. I am aware this has no plot or direction, but really? They stoop this low? This shit aint funny at all. This show is asking for the same treatment I gave to Konosuba if they keep this shit up.

Episode quite funny, the impression is that you do not want to build anything serious from the beginning and so is the end. Pleasant narration, the excuse to show an animation milestone, is not so bad. Eventually all were satisfied, since not only the players have the opportunity to show themselves in costume. Drawings and animations, very good, as usual.



What anime refers the pic with the pink dolphin? Thank you!

gosh this part cracked me up so bad xD it was a ridiculous episode but it was funny. Would have liked to see more guys actually doing something by now :3 I mean, c'mon right? ^^

It was enough for me to realize I'm tired of Mai and her fanservice character though nor Ruru for that matter (what's her point even *sigh*)

It's only a few more episodes left, just go along with it...

Though I've also shared memories with Haruhi, Asahina-san and Koizumi, I found that I've experienced more events with Nagato in particular. In fact, every situation seems to involve her. I might as well mention this, she's probably the only person to cause the bell within me to shake the most vigorously..." ~ Kyon, TMOSH

I was expecting obligatory beach episode and here I got some high-level trolling in its purest form, loaded with some outstanding animation, good job KyoAni!

I'm just pretty sure not all fans will actually understand this.

Loads of people in here have already pointed out ways this monster of the week could've been dealt with within the first five minutes, so I'll refrain from adding more to the list because clearly at this point logic cannot be applied to this shitstorm, but damn this entire anime feels more and more unnecessary.

Not sure I'll ever forgive kyoani for what they did to Cthulhu either, lol.

the ecchi bashing and scapegoating will NEVER END......

this episode was the same as every other episode, a phantom was causing mayhem or being annoying and they found a way to defeat it

BUT OH WAIT, there was a large amount of ecchi in this episode?

Okay, that episode was actually pretty darn funny.

I also laughed at Haruhiko explaining why the episode will be about onsen. It's okay KyoAni, every anime does it. Don't need to be that ashamed about it.

The onsen fanservice episode... everything is very nice, Mai, Reina, Koito, and the Beach Angels. KyoAni didn't disappoint.

Though I wonder why they didn't gang up on the monster, they all can't work together?

It was okay, but I wish I wasn't included as episode 8 with only 4 episodes left. It would have been better as an extra episode on the DVD or something.
