| Stop with the "so bad it's good". It's not a nanar if it's done on purpose. If it succeeds in what it's trying to do, it's good, period. So far I really liked it, but we'll have to see how it ends up. |
 |
| Well what the hell was that? At first I thought I'd missed an episode. Its beyond weird and not in a good way. Apart from a decent soundtrack It made absolutely no sense and the animation was pretty poor as well. I don't have the time or patience to put up with more episodes of this rubbish. |
| Ridiculously cool. |
 |
| This is so awesome! Gonna keep watching for more cat porn. |
| Wow i was expecting some Mushishi like anime about finding one's self (thats what i got from the synopsis), but lol this is Bizzare as Fucccccccccccccccccccckkk |
| Shirayuki= Most Perfect Female MC ever |
| What the heck was that cat watching lol. Didn't expect that pink haired girl to be Strange Juice. |

aerolyt said: It feels like they're satirizing the trend of fanservice anime by making it the protagonist's goal to avoid seeing panties like they're a video game hazard. As he gets more abilities he'll have to be more creative in how he avoids destroying the earth etc. I'm excited, that's for sure. You're really giving this anime way too much credit. |
おれはPigAmericanです おれはばか i am average american man i enjoy bad game runescape |
| This was awesome and epic |
| Certainly gets points for originality. Otherwise this is kind of bad. It thinks it's being clever with it's panty humor when it's really not. It's the same unfunny punchline over and over (hence the title?). Really though, how many "oh noes panties SPLOOSH" and "KA-BOOM" jokes will this have The porn watching cat made me smile though |

| So bad yet so entertaining love the art style too. Looks like a decent budget too |
| I normally hate ecchi/fanservice but god this was so weird I loved it. |
| It was meh. It would of been really good to see if it wasn't for all the panty shots. |
| There's no magical spell to save someone's life. |
| That was an interesting start. I liked the opening and in general music. The scene with the cat's laptop and the site was funny xD I enjoyed it. Character were nice and cute. I wonder how many times the world will be destroyed in this anime. |
| I like pancakes. |
| it was a funny start can't say it's an interesting story, but it's funny and it's always worth seing boobies and such |
 |
| It's kinda dumb but I sense a possible "cult classic" out of this. The cat + cat porn makes this worth watching IMO. |
| Brostep, power up through panties and cat porn. Man this will be a blast. Let's hope its more action oriented, reminded me of Rolling Girls somewhat but that had less action that I wanted. |
| That was insanely boring. Hopefully they find some comedy to put into it soon. I like the character designs. |
 |
| Its Crazy......I love it. |
 |
| So if a show nowadays it's fun and entertaining it's automatically a "so bad it's good"? what the actual fuck? |
| This was just awkward to watch, absolutely awful directing. Probably done on purpose but still, its jarring, awkward transitions in soundtrack, mood and everything. Its like when somebody tells a joke and when they are supposed to tell the punchline they wait an awkwardly long amount of time and it just feels weird. Its like that but at every step of the show. Its a random mess really. I couldnt really enjoy it save a few jokes, but I guess I will keep watching for 1 or 2 more episodes to see if it really is done on purpose and they plan to take it somewhere or if its going to be like this the whole duration. |
| What... WHAT IS THIS? AND WHY IS IT SO ENTERTAINING? |
| Didn't have high expectations for this but it was actually entertaining. It's going to be a wild ride |
| those nosebleeds are gonna get tiresome real fast! |

| I like how the robbers didn't even question how she got in the buss. And the cat porn! Freaking great humor! |
 Forum set made by my secret santa, Nate! |
| I would love to have an action packed over the top show that didn't insult the viewer with it's terrible trashy fan service and hand holding plot descriptions. Did you really need to tell us how and why he faints when he sees so much pantus? It's basically saying, "we know you're dumb, so let us break it down for you." |
Honoka is my Hero! Click Me! |
| Had a number of good laughs already, I think I'll like this one. |
| What the fuck is this ? I love it |
| Interesting but weak start. I found myself spacing out away from the screen way more often than I usually do. Cute OP/ED though. I'll wait a few more episodes. |

That's it, I blame Space Dandy for this. First Rolling Girl and then this. I don't know why but isn't anime a communications medium or art form that intends to speak to an or a group of audience, not just a joy for the animators? Not to mention Sekai Seifuku and Kyousou Giga earlier. If the show actually takes a few minutes to let the ridiculous premise to set in and not just in constant sugar rush the whole time with all those random events and overstuffed with information, wait, I'm asking too much. Myamori-sama isn't happy with the attitude of the staffs. |

| In Uchikoshi we trust! Too early to start any real speculation, but the most concrete that can be gathered is the following: The world ends on Dec 31, with the current date being Dec 21. This means something happens between these ten days. I assume that rather than being the direct cause for the end of the world, Yuuta is merely unconscious and not able to prevent something. Also, Mikatan could possibly be a Q member. However, that'd be a bit boring as Uchikoshi pulled a similar trick in one of his previous games. |
I have my own anime blog. It's called Anime Viking. Hope you'll you read it! |

Is this an unwritten rule or something? Not every series has to have some sort of deep message for it's viewers and I for one, generally have a lot of fun watching something if I can see the passion and love that the animators and staff have for series, unless it crosses a line of some sort, which it does here for me. |
| The Rolling girls/kill la kill of the season. It's fuckin stupid, but i love stupid things so i'm in ! Decoysknight said: bastek66 said:  Lol'd so hard at this. |

| 0________0 OMG |
| I'm in.. They had me with the "kitty porn".. |
| Pantsu power is strong in this anime. |
AaaaaaKun said: That's it, I blame Space Dandy for this. First Rolling Girl and then this. I wouldn't put Punchline on the same level as Rolling Girls (or Zvezda for that matter). I can at least see what they're trying to accomplish with this one and it's not on the same level of obnoxiously inward-looking. |

| I don't know, it just feels too unreal. I expect some serious twist by the middle of the season. |
| hawhawhaw panty shots blood nose so funny hawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww no |
| That was strange, yet oddly entertaining. That cat watching cat porn, I fell over laughing XD Unique character designs, nice animation by MAPPA, and some good comedy. OP and ED didn't really appeal to me. |

I can at least see what they're trying to accomplish with this one and it's not on the same level of obnoxiously inward-looking. Yeah, those are my thoughts too. It's clearly self-aware which makes it obviously trying to be a satire or parody but I just hope they don't do the same jokes over and over again. "Oh he saw panties and now the earth exploded". It needs to do more than that to be a good parody, otherwise it's just going to get repetitive fast. The art direction is superb but I hope that isn't the only thing praiseworthy about it. The cat porn part was pretty funny though so maybe they'll spice things up with other comedy as well? I dunno, have to wait and see. |

The cat porn part was pretty funny though so maybe they'll spice things up with other comedy as well? I dunno, have to wait and see. It's not really as simple as "he saw panties and earth explodes" to be fair. When he first fainted, there was this weird flash-forward through events yet to be seen like he time-jumped into the future or something. So the Earth gets destroyed in the future and if he gets aroused, he witnesses said destruction? Ah, the show isn't worth digging that deep into its plot as of yet. And yeah, I'm with you on the comedy. If they put in more cool setpieces like in the first few minutes (I legitimately liked that scene), I can look past that. But if they keep relying on the panty jokes, it'll just be another Nagasarete Airantou. |
