| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Part 1: A serious(?) philosophical discussions about test scores...  Mio gets 67 on her test. Part 2: Nano tries to feed Hakase a medicine for her cold with Sakamoto-san's advice  Sakamoto, aka Shiraishi Minoru cat, is freaking cute XD  Hakase is also very cute! She looks like a younger version of Rebecca Miyamoto. :) Part 3: Some random fun activities at the train station  It's a triple deck bed...but one person seems to be at disadvantage here.. Nothing crazy so far. It's a very relaxed slice-of-life series with slightly quirky tone of humor and a lot of (!) chats. I'd say the show is very different from Lucky Star, but it's more close to Sketchbook: full colors in many ways:) |

| i tried to remember how to read "東雲" while 2nd part, till the narration said the answer usual day... now i come to appreciate it ***************************** OOOOOOooooooo,,,,, now Shizuoka quake .tysdrkl;tjmpd.dgs12524t..... Tokai Earthquake ?? |
 |
| 8/10 lots of little details gave it merit, not to mention the very well-done OST. Felt almost like a mini-movie. looking forward to the 2-season series |

| I thought it was okay. Hopefully it will grow on me more when the really series starts. I only chuckled maybe twice. |
| The relaxed slice-of-life atmosphere mixed with some not-so-normal things (like the cog in Nano's back and Sakamoto the talking cat) reminded me of Potemayo. It wasn't quite as good as Pote, though, so I gave it 6/10. I wonder what the TV series will be like. I hope it will have some of Potemayo's stranger humor (such as a girl similar to Potemayo's Nene Kasugano and something similar to Guchuko's beams, amongst other things.) as well as the cute parts that they both share. |

| Nice introduction but I hope show gets better subs, Ahodomo's subs were horrible |
| didn't expect it to be this good, cat is my fav atm, animation reminds me of lucky star, in a good way, SFX/sound track was leet too... |
 |
| Was expecting more randomness. But still a nice ova. Sakamoto was my favorite :'D |
| Ahh Another great anime that is just relieves you of every type of worry and is soo funny xD |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| While not exactly very funny by slice of life standards, it is very relaxing which is good especially right now with depression and sadness at every corner. Man, this anime is nonsensical as well, Nano has a wind on her back. The RPG is played for gags for those concerned about a rocket propelled grenade being used in a Tamayura class anime. Hikase is really cute. The test grade scene was hilarious. It will get better most likely. 8.7/10 |
 |
| It was very relaxing and laid-back. Not heavy on the jokes but that's alright. |
| Ara ara. |
are595 said: Probably including "distracted lulz" seemed a bit unprofessional. I didn't really mind it, though. Anyway, 'twas wasn't as bad as I expected, but it wasn't very impressive either. I love the fact that I can memorize the lyrics to the ending though. That's probably going to be the best this season, if they keep it for the main series, heh.Xardie said: Nice introduction but I hope show gets better subs, Ahodomo's subs were horrible Really? I didn't think it was bad at all. Do you mind explaining why you though so? |
Iisan-kun said: The cat's voice saved this episode... seriously. Does anyone know who the voice actor is? The cat's voiced by Shiraishi Minoru. He also voiced "Shiraishi Minoru" in Lucky Star as well as Taniguchi in Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu. |

| Shinonome and Nano were the cutest things ever. Okay, I only like Nano because of the wind-up thing on her back, so what? |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| didn't care much for the cat. but hakase was too adorable. the reaction to the grade was priceless |
| It reminded me a bit of Azumango, but dragged out so much it turned boring. The cat was ok, but the rest...meh. I can see the potential, but they need to pick up the pace for the series. |

This is a really cool and funny anime. It reminds of the enjoyments of Hidamari Sketch mixed with great humor from Ichigo Mashimaro so I am so in for the ride. Since this in segment format it makes it easier for me discuss about since anyone can talk about each segment and which ones they liked. I for one had #1 as segment 2 because Hakase is just too damn cute in the following, and #2 as segment 3. First segment did not work for me as well but was enjoyable. More later About segment 2, right away from the way Hakase looked with that running nose I knew she was going out pawn in MOE the other girls and I was right. She was so funny always pointing out something her cat Sakamoto said yet it was not true, a gag in itself. From the looks of nano she is most likely a robot build by Hakase so she is one of those small kids that have over 200 IQ and I am also pretty sure Sakamoto is either a super genetically modified cat that can talk or is a robot also. I got good laughs at Sakamoto getting distracted by the butterfly while ironically he was smart talking not too long ago. Now I had to know by Hakase’s surprised expression that flan was a favorite of genius just like my first surprise at Dr Nova in Gunnm in eating one, which BTW now I like them too. Hakase was just too adorable drawing in the spoiler About segment 3, well the beginning was pretty nuts with Yuuko doing a cart wheel so close to that yellow lines, oh heck you can fall so easy, I would so not do that IRL. Mio was far smarter in doing a roller around. Mai was the most strange one with her finger going around. What really worked for me to make this segment as #2 is Sumo wrestling along with a Yuuko expression in the spoiler About segment 1, certainly the intro of this anime’s world and its art left a nice impression. From the different Mio facial expressions in the spoiler On the other hand Yuuko had some good stuff going around I find the rich creation of different facials expression with background changes in the spoiler |

| Boring. Really boring. 4/10. |
| Quite good Slice of Life..... but graphics are not upto KyoAni's standards.... And Japanese people mark wrong answers with a tick...... You normally use tick to mark correct answers..... that's just confusing..... :P |
 |
| Okay, what's up with that bazooka!? |
| Kind of disappointing, when I read the synopsis I expected something more similar to FLCL than a straight slice of life. |
| It was a great start, gave 8/10 and looking forward to the series. |
 |
Arashi89 said: Yeah I was expecting something more... crazy? I guess. I like slice though, as long as they pull it off well in the series. Also to whoever mentioned subs, UTW picked it up so if you want subs that aren't shit go get it. |
| I was rather disappointed in this OVA. I quite like the manga, but the thing that I liked about the manga was the oddness of it, which was absent from this OVA, but I am still looking forward to seeing the TV series as I'm sure as it adapts more of the manga it will get crazier. |

| Lol the cat is awesome! :D |
Yumekichi11 said: Rhypo-oniichan said: Intermission comedy. Lots of them is a WTF or O_o generally.Okay, what's up with that bazooka!? The stuff with the bazooka actually does tie into the story, in the manga at least. |
| 私のホバークラフトは鰻でいっぱいです |
| Whoa, the beginning confused me a bit till I realised that a tick mark actually means you got something wrong while a circle means it's right in Japan @_______@ I watched this as a test to see if the TV Show would be worth the time, but I guess I'll just wait to see how well the TV Show does. It wasn't too bad, but it wasn't really that great either. 6/10 |
 Znips: When Shay is born she just crawls back in the womb to shitpost for another year |
| Basically (in my humble opinion): Azumanga Daioh + Kamichu. Slow pace and soft (but not typical) jokes. Will the TV series be more intense? |
stevewiess01 said:  Too many checkmarks for a 1/100. (first thing I noticed) |
| I liked it - It was cute and had some fun characters. I noticed the soundtrack was good as well. I'm definitely going to watch the TV-anime. |

Rasco said: Ahh Another great anime that is just relieves you of every type of worry and is soo funny xD Yeah that's what it seemed. I actually liked it. A little stupid but enjoyable nevertheless. It certainly convinced me to check out the show. |
| Was a bit slow but not terrible. I'll give the first few episodes a shot and see how it turns out. |
| I think the scenes were a little too drawn out. And, there's just something about nose dropping characters that turn me off. Ironically, the ending music is absolutely heavenly. That's the power of a good melody. I love it. |
 |
| What the hell did I just watch? No, seriously. I love moe, I seriously love moe, but this was waaaay too much. For the first two minutes of the first part I was like, awww so cute~~ o3o ... And then I was all like, "When is this going to end?!" o_O The only good thing about this OVA is Sakamoto, this cat is hillarious XD Hakase was too moe for me, couldn't take it. I'll check out the TV series though, because I'm a KyoAni fangirl and because Lucky Star was boring at first, too, but then it turned out to be one of my favourite animes, so... :D By the way, I like the art. I think everyone here knows that KyoAni are capable of more, but it fits perectly. Reminds me of Lucky star - plain, simple and with awesome smooth movements. |
 |
| I lol'd. Looking forward to the tv series. |
| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
| Nice start, didn't expect the cat to talk. 8/10 |
 |
| So, KyoAni trying to make their next big seiyuu... they use many unpopular seiyuu and make them into popular like they did in SHnY, Lucky Star and K-ON! |
| I really enjoyed this and I'm definitely looking forward to the TV series. The cat being unable to control his cat-like tendencies was hilarious. Also, the ED song is wonderful! 8/10 |
