THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Well as far as episode 1 goes, I enjoyed it. It had some genuinely funny moments too so it was a plus.

The synopsis did not lie, this really does take a weird spin on classical tales, for example this week it parodies cinderella with the whole missing shoe and everything, pretty nice concept.

As for the characters...well Ookami is actually pretty cool, as expected she has some tsundere to her but for the most part she was pretty good when it came to fighting with her little cat gloves lol.
The main male lead...the only way I can describe him is Jacuzzi Splot from Baccano but a bit less cool.

A good start to what looks to be an enjoyable show, JC Staff does not disappoint.

One of the few shows I looked forward to this season, so I'm glad that it delivered.
Enjoyed the characters, good comedy and the premise is interesting.

I wish that they could have gotten another voice actor for the narrative though, I found her voice as Kuroko kind of annoying aswell. +_+

JC Staff generic garbage QUALITY tsundere animu, at least, that's my first impression. I like that Ryouko isn't helpless, rather she can kick some ass.

It wasn't like I expected, but it was quite good and entertaining.

I have to say, I like Ookami-san's clothing, and the male lead's character. The story itself was fairly interesting, and the other characters should be pretty good when they are developed. The OP was nice aswell.

Not a fan of the narrator though - had acouple of good moments (such as after the OP at the end), but most of the time I felt it was unneeded, especially for the introductions.

I'll start this as a 7/10, as it was refreshing.

...all I like about the male lead is his hair.

Ringo is my favorite character though. I must have some sort of affinity for what Little Red Riding Hood wears. Her meddlesome-ness is quite cute too.

THAT WAS NOT RYOMA

Well, the jokes weren't funny and nothing special throughout but it has potential to be greater than the "generic" shadow that looms over it. I have hope.

Oh, and I want to choke that narrator. I've had enough of that certain homosexual teleporter.

That guy's pretty pathetic. No, he's not getting praise for doing something natural.

But otherwise I'm in. A bigger, Hina-chan-voiced, tsundere Taiga is all I need. And that outfit is just brilliant :9 .

Plenty of desuno and funny comments by the narrator made this a quite enjoyable episode. It has to pick up though.

The lead male looks like Araragi while the female looks and acts like Taiga. That narrator is annoying. I wasn't expecting much, but even so I am kind of disappointed; it could have been much better.

Really liked this episode. Morino feels unique, and Ryouko is like Taiga but 100x better. Because: 1. No Rie Kugimiya (tired of her voice, never was a fan of it in the first place though), 2. Looks older 3. Looks prettier 4. Uses the best boxing gloves ever.

At first I was like why is Kuroko talking? WHY IS KUROKO TALKING?! But I think it fits perfectly for a "fairy tale" setting.

Can't wait to see the next ep.

LOL, that was hilarious. I was not expecting it to be that funny.

And, I thought the fairy tale parodies were nicely done and interesting.
I can see good things coming from that.

All the characters so far are pretty good, especially the leads and the little pink haired girl
For some reason she reminds me of the little witch from Rosario?

And as opposed to what most have expressed, I thought the narrator was very funny and a nice touch.

If it stays on this track, I think I'll really enjoy this show.

Urahara Out!!

Since it's a reference to fairy tails, there needs to be a narrator.
I didn't found the narrator annoying, the only part that annoyed me was her referring to the bust size of the characters, but speaking about bust size is normal in anime.
For i first episode it was nothing fancy but it looked better then i expected.

This anime is made by the same producers as Toaru Kagaku no Railgun and there fore shares allot of the same cast.
And i think Ookami-san looked a bit like Misaki Mikoto and she looks allot like Taiga.

Seems I wasn't the only one LOL.

It's like they down graded Araragi and made him a piece of shit of a human and upgraded Taiga to make her taller but essentially, still the bloody same.

Pretty promising, liked it a lot.

Narrator is nice, it's a shame that you won't get many narrators anymore.. It fits the style and adds to the atmosphere.

Cinderella with SM... yess, brilliant!
Cat gloves? Holy shit, yes!
..is it weird that I'd even consider letting my girlfriend wear such an outfit? o3o

Looking forward to next week <3

Let's see here... A genre-savvy generic tsundere romance/harem thingy. It got funnier towards the end with Ringo's remarks about the bodies and the fairy tale thing after the ED theme played.

The narrator has potential to be funny, but she wasn't really showing it here.

I'm undecided on whether to drop it yet. It depends on how It might get better. I guess it will dpend on what the other shows this season are like. As there's nothing outstanding in the line-up, it might turn out to be one of the best in a mediocre season.

The kick scene was awesome, and then the Cinderella post-OP scene, too. But the rest...I don't know. If it's short/if it picks up/for Ryoushi, I may watch to the end. If not, then I foresee a droppage here.

And seriously, Ryoushi must be something more than he lets on, because let's face it - he stopped a knife with a pebble.

Oh hey, I was thinking the exact same thing. I hope she goes out of the picture in the next few episodes, but that's probably wishful thinking.

I was genuinely bored with this first episode aside from the S&M segment near the end. Hope it improves.

Pretty good, shes not an unbearable tsundere luckily, and looking at the ED, she has some mysterious dark character past connection. So shes the wolf, still felt nice getting Taiga flashes, girl has a mean jab. Red Riding Hood is pretty funny.

Phobia of getting stared at, cowardly and apparently role of sniper.......gee wheres the long nose (and no thats not a Pinnochio reference).
