| I've been looking forward to this show and it did not disappoint! Great first episode! |
 |
| Wow, I did not expect that. Good episode. 4/5 |
 Sometimes I can hear my bones straining under the weight of all the lives I'm not living. |
| I like this show. I will follow. |
 |
| Wow, that episode was a lot better than I expected! Looks like this could be a pretty good season. |
Metaler said: It's only been one episode and people are posting reviews. It's like the whole world's gone retarded or something. Read them. They are mostly just extended synopsizes with a little information about what happened in the first episode. Those little tidbits can still help a person who's on the fence about starting the series. |
 |
| So similar to Please Teacher; one wouldn't even need to read all the comparisons being made to notice if one has seen the show. I thought it was rather interesting; it made me want to watch more; now whether the plot holds interests remains to be seen but i felt it was a good start. |
 |
| OP wasn't that great but it was good. But from the looks of it...there are a lot of moe characters so I approve. Pretty typical at first but then I was thrown off-guard when it was 'just a dream'. OMG. Lemon the Yandere. FAVORITE CHARACTER SO FAR. I love it when Yukari Tamura does her Yandere voice. Reminds me of Furude Rika from Higurashi. ROFL. Ishigaki the player. Dude is tall as hell. "There are no fish in this river" - Awkward much!? The background music while Kaito has his delusions...just epic. ROFL OK so it wasn't a delusion. Holy shit I did not expect that. Funny as hell. Oh, so that's what that briefcase was for. It's like she's some alien doctor lmao. ROFL he took those breasts to the face. ED was simple but nice. |
 |
| megane men everywhere do like so I will keep watching. lol Kaito got face boobed there at the end. xD |
"What has two arms, two legs, and is alive? Not your favorite character lol! xD" |
| Im having high hopes for this series ^o^b |

I almost never read discussions after I made my post, if you want to reply PM me or post on my profile page. |
| I thought this was going to be Anohana spiritual sucessor, but I did not expect this to be sci-fi. However, the last couple minutes was lol. Okay episode. |
 |
| That was pretty good! Very much Onegai and Ano Hana like. Very likable characters with Lemon, Kanna and Tetsurou. Shame Ichika has to be an alien though. Apart from the cliche end it was all pretty well done too. Kanna obviously likes Kaito so I'm predicting some tension between her and Ichika in the future. I'm just really afraid her feelings won't be acknowledged like always. At least Kaito's sis is rooting for her. Looking forward to more! |
 |
| Best first episode ive watched this season. SWTOR is Star Wars The Old Replublic? |
 |
| the main character luks like Jintan, no? |
| <img src="http://img441.imageshack.us/img441/4393/asdfup.jpg" /> |
| Wow this anime is going to be awesome. The ending was the best part it was so funny. Can't wait until the next episode. |
 |
| 8/10 and 5/5 |
| It feels like Ano Hana ¬¬ |
| Recycling old shows seems to become a trend now? Onegai Natsu for the win ! (Oh I am sure I am not the first one to mention it -.-) Not like I didn't like Onegai Teacher and giggled myself to sleep back then when watching it, but still. At least we can expect this show to have more going on than NOTHING at the end, where all the characters stay the same, nothing happens and their relationships seem to stay the same and not develop further. It must be different, if it really wants to be Onegai Natsu, so to speak ! I like it :D |
| This show reminds me of Onegao Teacher TOO much!! the read head Alien, and the cool LOLI = Ichigo Morino and Lemon, and the short haired girl who had a crush on the main protagonist.. I watched Onegai Teacher when i was still a middle school student but i can still remember clearly the atmosphere and the tone of that anime is the same as this one, but since i love onegai teacher.. i think i'll able to enjoy this one too.. ps : I LOVE LEMON!!! |
| Hmm... I didn't have high expectations for this anime before watching (my previous bets were on Another), but after Episode One I must say that this Ano Natsu is shaping up to be my potential top favorite of Winter 2012. Epic twist ending is epic twist ending. Loads of fanservice but still they don't look out of place which is great. The characters are likable too. Lemon is currently the best anime character of the season in my opinion. So in other words, 5/5. p/s: Does the character designer for this show have a megane fetish or something like that? I mean, over half of the cast are bespectacled! |
| Even though some people say this is just a rip-off of Onegai Teacher I love it.!! I enjoyed Anohana and Onegai Teacher a lot so I'm sure I'll enjoy this one :)! mrghost_00 said: p/s: Does the character designer for this show have a megane fetish or something like that? I mean, over half of the cast are bespectacled! I don't know if he does but I do and I'm grateful to him (?) , No seriously I really liked that character design *-*. |
 |
| I enjoyed this a lot, was pretty relaxing to watch. Great start! LOL at the end. What the hell is up with Ichika? She's got some type of power?! Didn't see that coming. Looks like she did save Kaito at that bridge, wonder what she did. Something to do with gravity or cells? The characters looks awesome, I can tell I am gunna love Lemon and Mio a lot already. Tetsurou and Kanna looks like they gunna make this very funny tbh. |

Shih said: I can't believe it. Ano Natsu de Matteru actually reminds me of Anohana The feel, the atmosphere just felt so similar Then I checked MAL, and AH, it's the same director =O Yeah it seems is his style because it indeed it has a similar feeling although the plot seems different. I don't thing am very happy though about cute aliens pets. Those things are a little ridiculous except if this is gonna be a complete comedy and the serious narration tone is just a miss-match but anyway lets see where this is gonna go. barneyslayer said: This was a pretty decent first episode, but I really don't understand the atmosphere JC Staff is aiming for in this series. On one hand, you've got this contemplative Honey and Clover-esque narration and a character driven slice of life. On the other, you have aliens and fanservice. I hope the story meshes together in later episodes because the down-to-earth believability that the show tries so hard to create is thrown off balance by the out of place sci-fi elements. Ha. Thank you. I'm confused too. What tone are they trying to give here. Comedy, drama? It's kind of confusing. Like the narration doesn't fit with the events we are watching. |

| I did not get any AnoHana or Toradora vibes that everyone seemed to get. Eh, I hope it gets better. |
| First ep was over so quickly :3 encore! |
| Do not feed the trolls! They bite ;D |
| Definitely an anime that takes from A LOT of different anime that were produced and made by the same studios. ''Onegai Teacher'' in there, with some ''Toradora'', and quire a few others. I hope that this turns out to be another really good anime that separates itself from the other general anime this season. Story is unique, but, a little cliche. I can say I've definitely seen it before. Characters are awesome, though! Tetsurou is a huge step up in anime characterization. I think he's the least cliche character I've seen since Izaya from ''Durarara''. So, all in all, I have some high expectations from Nagai, Tatsuyuki (director of many, many great anime). Looking forward to the next! |
| Okay, so the director also did Ano Hana and Toradora. The really nice character designs are done by the same person who did ROD The TV and Kamichu. And the script writer did Honey & Clover? I knew I'd like this before I even watched a single clip of this! Also, I only read Onegai Teacher, not watched bu the similarities are ridiculous but I don't mind. So bad of me to say this so early into the season but...I predict this will be more favorite show of the season. |
   |
| All of this anime reminds me of Onegai Teacher, (which I read, not watched) especially the character designs and the alien-girl concept. I'm going to hope it won't turn out like an Onegai Teacher clone. |

| This kind of random alien coming to earth anime interests me. Though it is very familiar. -_- |
 |
| The animation style reminds me of AnoHana. |
darkerealm said: The animation style reminds me of AnoHana. ^This |
| It's like the new Onegai Teacher! the redhead alien and the romance between her and a student, her arrival, Remon (looks a lot like Morino from OT), the little thing in the suitcase that helps Ichika... etc. This was pretty good, I'll continue watching it C: |
| I'm watching this show just because of Tomatsu Haruka. |
 |
Did anyone else notice that her glasses translated the Japanese writing into her "native" language.  |

Tomodachi you have sharp vision!i didnt pick that up. its the little things like this that let you know the staff are doing a good job. |
| Seems like a nice story, though I'm a little late, I'll start following this now. :) 5/5 |
| Thank god, Rihon doesn't have a chinchin. Cause he was have lost it painfully. Good episode overall. It did seem to drag a bit near the end. Not that the testing is out of the way i'm sure there will be more hijinx to come. A side note. Rihon is one lucky bastard in the OP. |
| I'm not sure I'll stick with this, it doesn't seem like anything spectacular. the character designs are so moe and adorable though it doesn't seem like they're grow out of their molds. |
 |
| Great first episode. Better than I expected, and the comedy was a touch that I was also not expecting. I can feel that this show has the potential to become one of my favorites for this airing season. I just hope I won't be disappointed. On to the next episode, then. |
| Wait a second... I didn't remember I wanted to re-watch Onegai Teacher... Wait... It wasn't Onegai Teacher? Because I could swear it was Onegai teacher, since they re-used the whole plot and all the characters (Ichigo is called Lemon, but they've kept the looks, the personality AND the VA too). J.C Staff, AnoHana director, the whole cast of and plot of Onegai Teacher? I better bail out, before this whole thing turns to shit. |
