Don't worry, Ika Musume. You successfully invaded my heart.

So that girl appeared out of nowhere just to give Squid girl moral support and leaves just like that? What the hell?
Squid girl looked super cute with short hair. Ahhh, this was great.

Finally she turned around and gave us a sweet smile.



Welp, that was enjoyable. The first episode didn't 'wow' me, but after that, everything had a nice flow and I enjoyed every episode after that. I'll put this at an 8.
Time for season 2!

My favorite part was when Ika said whenever she lost her tentacles again she will throw Eiko into the ocean again, Damn that was a funny line.

All I can say about this anime is everything was perfect!

9/10.

Well, that was a mysterious encounter!

Also, TIL this series takes place on the beach of
.

I was surprised at how no-holds-barred that
was. But then again, given how insane everyone is on a regular basis, perhaps I shouldn't have been surprised.

Overall, I like this, but I think I was thrown off by the realistic setting in this story. I think I expected something a little more like...well, I knew Squid Girl herself would be a fish out of water (pun not intended but acknowledged), but I didn't expect this many characters in the rest of the setting to be such weirdos, especially the alleged* MIT grads.

Though, the main cast got developed somewhat more thoroughly -- and my favorite character is Eiko. I just love how down-to-earth she is, how she just deals with whatever, no matter how insane. Though Chizuru ain't bad either, and Nagisa not only looks pretty but also participates in a hilarious daisy chain of ironic relationships.

*Those are very much not MIT grads. They are complete bozos. And we don't even have class rankings, lol.

And sad episode for the end..
Overall, I think that this anime was quite enjoyable.. But it also needed some episodes (like 3, or something) for things to get used to and to stabilize.. As at the beginning there was too much hostility in the air, it felt.. Later we got more and more just enjoyable slice of life.. I liked Ika the most in the anime.. I like her design, and I just wished for her to have fun, stuff like that.. Then I also liked Sanae and Kiyomi instantly, both are friendly nice girls.. Some other characters I also liked, and the more time I saw them, the more I started to like some of them.. Like Ayumi, or other characters..

Excellent finale. That volleyball game was so epic.

Ika alone on the beach again. Very beautiful scenery.

She looked cute with short tentacles. :3

I liked that conversation between her and the mysterious girl, Kozue. She's an interesting character.

I'm glad Ika got her long tentacles back, because isn't Ika Musume without them. :)

Bye bye, Ika! I love you! <3

This first season is pretty much a masterpiece.
