Once I learned what it was about I was like "Bah screw this..." but I decided to watch it anyways. Can say I was not disappointed, this starting off as a great show.

Dat chicken. And omg dem eggs. I really didn't think much about where exactly eggs came from, but my reaction is the same as Hachiken's lol.

This show surprised me. I didn't think much of it going into the first ep but I actually enjoyed it.

It was pretty fun. Looking forward to seeing more. But I kinda want to read the manga instead since it's by Arakawa.
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it!

I'm really happy to watch an anime adaption of one of my favorite manga, and it looks like it'll be a decent adaption. I hope the animation quality stays up.

As a learner of Japanese I freaking loved this: lots of new farming-related vocabulary, elements of the local dialect (the one I noticed so far is the particle "-be") and, most importantly, readily available Japanese subs! Together with the chicken anus lecture, I can honestly say that I learned something today! Oh, and the humour was enjoyable as well. 5/5

Loving the BGM and the ED especially. I laughed so hard when Tamako was flying in the air, and Hachiken tried to save her but he started flying too. xD I really hope we find out more about Hachiken's past in the coming episodes, I'm really interested.

Overall, I enjoyed this episode a lot. It was fun, cute, and really felt like the "start of an adventure". :) The animation is simple, but it's pleasing to the eye and nice to watch.

I am a city girl, but I really didn't understand Hachiken's crazy aversion to eggs coming from the anus. Or cloetus or whatever. >__>" I would have eaten it all the same. xP But gosh, are these guys brutes. No culture clubs? I would die; I'm soo clumsy.

Oh, and HachikenxAki would be a cute couple! Hope he joins the Equestrian club. :D

aren't you a sharp one? you can see HachikenxAki in the manga. i wonder if the anime would put it, since it's pretty far away.

No you don't have to read anything else by her.This is separate from anything else she's done.

I know this is separate from everything else she's done,I just meant I don't really see anything here,other than her fame that's causing the hype.I'm about to download the episode to check it out,but not expecting much.

Hm it could be her fame, it could not be. When the manga first came out after she finished FMA, a lot of people didn't like it because it was so different from FMA. It's not even that hyped I don't think? I personally love it because I find it funny, educational in some ways, and I also love slice of life. Also, it's not everyday that you come across a farming manga (and I guess now anime). If you don't end up enjoying this, it's probably because you aren't in the target audience.

ok art is not the best part of this, had some time adjusting to their voices

but I liked it :D they included those "informational pieces" maybe more than in manga but it's fine.
Being Hachiken is suffering and they shown well Tamako personality :)

Hachiken's voice is very different than what I imagined when I was reading the manga but I'm getting used to it.

Silver Spoon is different from the fast-paced, action-packed Full Metal Alchemist but it still has what Arakawa does best: diverse and interesting characters all with their own quirks and idiosyncrasies, a world you can immerse yourself into, a peak into the agricultural lifestyle, and of course, humor. Arakawa-style.
And there will be food. Lots of tasty food.

Definitely! I replayed those parts to catch some of the vocabulary used in the conversation.

Nice change of pace from the other anime this season.
Actually smiled a few times and ALMOST laughed out loud. Sort of.

Tamako is the ugliest girl I've seen in anime in quite some time

lol Hachiken reminds me of myself a bit with the being tired all the time and no stamina. xD

Only difference is I've been around farm animals all my life and I actually took agricultural classes in high school. Although we learned more about how to operate the shop's machinery than we did about livestock and breeds. xD

That being said this will probably be one of my favorite anime of the season along with ServantxService and Free!

Honestly wasn't even planing on picking this up, since it sounded like something I wouldn't enjoy. But I thought the first Ep was pretty good. Especially him freaking out about Eggs was awesome.

He seems to be pretty much a city boy who has never thought about the food on his plate. The students remind me of all the farmer's kids who went to my high school (our family farm was too small at 320 acres to make an economic go of it so that option wasn't open for me or my brothers)--totally focused on what they needed to know to take over the business. I don't have an issue with where eggs come from, I do have an issue with the living conditions of the chickens who produce them (and the other animals in our food chain), so it was nice to see Keiji comment on that.
Please don't feed the trolls!

Let's see here...
OP song is suck for me..
SFX and BGM...WHERE?!!! This series need this 2 the most for SoF anime to make sure it will not bored the audience watching this!
VC...so-so I think but so low voices make me hard to hear and need volume up.
The story, the awkward space between each chp in manga been animated is killing the fun.

God!! Why?!!! The manga is REALLY good and fun to read but when it got animated version, it suck here and there! (;_ ;)...for now, 5.5/10

I enjoyed it, a pretty funny and relaxing episode. I did not like the OP honestly, but I loved the ED.

Also, from what I've heard the OST are pretty good. Btw, I'm hoping for some Aki-Hachiken already.

Yeah but they're not directing it. Not their fault if it's a crappy adaptation.

I remember enjoying the manga much more, but it was a decent episode.

So far this is my favorite of the season. An entertaining and equally realistic portrayal of an agricultural lifestyle, with very high art and production qualities to boot. I'm impressed.

Pretty good start, it was funny at times. The OP is pleasing to hear. The art is quite amazing and along with the out of the norm story made this very refreshing to watch.

I can already see this won't be everyone's cup of tea but I myself am looking forward to the next episode.

I've been waiting months for this! Really happy with the first episode. I enjoyed it even more than I did when I read the manga.
I wish there was more animation but it still looks sharp and very nice. Seiyuu choices are good too.

Looks like it will be a quality adaptation. Yes yes yes!

Didn't know this was from the same mangaka as FMA, which is funny cause when I heard Sukima Switch that's immediately where my mind jumped.
