THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
This was sweet. The opening song is short and lighthearted to the point.

Nanako really bought out both the comedy and charm of this episode imo. She uses her emotions and body language to communicate rather than vocal words. The animation style imo is vibrant with a good degree of colors. It's actually better than what I had anticipated.

Eiji and Nanako has some funny chemistry already :D

I think the ED theme song has a nice tune to it too.

Ehh, idk about this one. Compared to the manga, the comedy didn't work that well here. It might be cause of the manga's 4-koma structure, but the comedy lacks any flow in this first episode. And idk how big of an issue this will be later on, because the series is basically 95% gag comedy, 5% everything else. So far, the comic timing feels off. Sometimes the lines lack impact (might be a fault of the script rather than the VAs), and use of music and sound effects don't add to the humor. Because of this, the punchlines don't work. The VAs are good though.

Damn that OP and ED were lit, really like the light-hearted atmosphere in this


Although I feel like the jokes are being delivered too passively, especially since this series has a lot of straight man style humor.

Aside from that it was quite fine, not super funny, but amusing.

Ah and really great ending.

Better than expected.
And it's a good thing that she says her own lines since i can't read Japanese so things are easier this way.
It funny that the guy is feared tho.

That was an adorable first episode. I don't think the 12-minute episode length will be a problem for this style of series either.

If the series continues to be like this, it will certainly be a nice little watch and probably an underrated gem.

*checks*

Angel Beats, Bokura wa Minna Kawai-sou, Parasyte, Kobato... I could go on but I don't feel like it. Also I didn't realize she voiced any of those characters until just now.

Well, I can't think of any harem anime where her character won but still.

EDIT: OK watching this episode I enjoyed it to an extent but it just felt a little... off? I like the manga well enough but yeah idk, guess I'll see how the rest of the show goes.

I don't really care whether the humor is funny or not, seeing the two MCs converse is already entertaining enough for me.

But I'm rather disappointed to find out that these episodes aren't 23 mins...

Pretty "Ehh" episode. Wasn't all that funny. Only a few of the jokes stuck and it felt like the anime was just going through the motions.
Also, I noticed a surprising lack of actual animation. Too much of the episode were still images.

I've read some of the manga, and it was genuinely entertaining. I hope the anime improves.

It was cute though.

Pretty catchy OP and a sweet one too. Hmm so Nanako is that bad at speaking huh. Still her way of writing out her responses sure was funny as is her physical reactions. Eiji's just tough on the outside huh. But man his tough guy look sure is sabotaging his attempts to make friends with others. Hmm communicating with senryu sure is an interesting idea. Hmm a strong first ep that did well in showing the strong bonds between Nanako and Eiji and the chemistry between them. Also loving the contrast between their personalities too.

It's the first episode and I love Nanako, she's so cute and I love her beautiful smile that is so sweet that it gives you diabetes.
This episode was quite instructive, they present us to the FMC that is Nanako, a girl who does not know how to order the ideas she wants to say and she can not speak for this, but she can write them through a senryuu and the MC that is Eiji, the boy who is known as the delinquent of the school who likes to fights, this is due to his intimidating face.
Personally I love hearing the voice of Kana Hanazawa and she is perfect in the character of Nanako and is clear to me that Nanako likes Eiji very much, but why would she like to be with Eiji ?, but I must admit that chemistry between Nanako and Eiji is very pleasing to the eye. I also liked Amane a lot, it made me laugh when Nanako wrote a senryuu of her three main measures, her presence gives more humor to the senryuus of Eiji and Nanako
The facial expressions of the characters are very funny, especially those of Nanako who uses a lot of body and facial expression, she is so cute when she shows her friends how she ask to go to the bathroom and the part of the cafeteria was so funny, she felt so overwhelmed by so many options that she ran away and the final part where Nanako tells Eiji that she does not care what the people say as long as she can be with him was so cute, Nanako blushing is so perfect and that part in which she describes him with that face full of happiness ... Damn my heart almost stops, Nanako is very adorable and lovely.
The OP and the ED are beautiful, I liked them a lot, they have that OP and ED air of romcom / slice of life anime that is always pleasant to the ears, like the soundtrack that is quite simple, but it is very pleasant and accompanies perfectly the moments of humor and the most intimate moments. As for the animation I found it very well achieved, the design of characters is quite good, obviously the girls look very nice and the main girls look even more cute, the facial expressions are the most pleasant and fun, I swear it will be my therapy have to see Nanako's adorable and cute smile every week.

First, the OP is beautiful.
Second, the atmosphere is so calming and vibrant.
MCs' relationship between them is so sweet that i couldn't handle it.
The humour is something that didn't hit to the point well.
ED is nice
Overall: A diabetes show for this year. Looking forward to it.

I nearly died of laughter when Eiji recited that poem after his fight. Lmfaoooooo

And Nanako is the sweetest thing ever. Must. Protecc. It's also nice to hear Kana Hanazawa using her Mayushii voice xD

This is something new and refreshing and I fell in love with this anime immediately!
The animation is nice, the characters are enjoyable, and the interactions among each other are fantastic and hilarious.

The "confession" was funny and when Nanako was pounding on Busujima's back, that was adorable.

Hana Kana did a good job portraying her voice differently for Nanako compared to some of her other characters. Very Well done.

I like how we get some of Nanako's inner monologue as well. I feel like her talking in 5-7-5 would get old rather quickly so it's nice to get that.

DONT TURN INTO A HAREM. Even though some of the other females entering are cute. I like the Goth looking one.
