| A Veoh user made a remark that had me laughing: johnvideo said: What is she DOING ON THAT ROOF! -- You DON'T WALK ON TILES, you must spread weight over several with padded plywood, and you don't lean a ladder on the tiles. You don't put your toolbox directly on the tiles (it can chip them) and you DON'T WORK IN THE RAIN or on a wet roof! ... It does not look like she has the right tools and is she using COPPER nails? ... If she does not know what she is doing, she will break more tiles than she replaces! ... ... KIDS - DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME - GET A PRO! Otherwise, the show seems to be taking its time. So far we've been introduced to the residents of Ikkoku. Godai is so hesitant it's pathetic. I sympathize with him, but argh, watching him makes me cringe. |
| Yeah, that comment was pretty damn funny. And, Godai hit to close to home for me many times throughout the series as..he seems alot like me at times. But, believe me, he does grow throughout the series. |

| oh yeah there's reason for all of those 96 eps , this is not gonna be exactly rushed story will be ? I just hope it's worthy to watch all of those. Sent with Mal Updater |
( Currently interested in OP MC genre. Recommendations are welcomed, preferable those yet not on my list ) |
| Akemi is cool character :D |

| My gawd the main character is a pansy! hellogoodbye said: Godai is so hesitant it's pathetic. I sympathize with him, but argh, watching him makes me cringe. Agreed, I'm questioning if I'm gonna enjoy this series, but I believe in giving all anime a fair chance, hopefully this series proves worthwhile. |
| El Psy Congroo まだまだだね!!! |
| Kentaro is the cutest thing. =3 |
| This show is painful to watch, and very boring. There's not one interesting character so far, and the soundtrack isn't even any good. |
 |
| Soooooooooooooo frustrating he doesn't give her the gift. This is going to be a long 96 episodes. |
 |
| Should have done the same as the kid and just give the present, bit disappointed he diden't give the present at the end of the episode i hope he does give it in the next one. Getting thrown out of your own room lmao. |
| I sympathize with Godai, this is his first love ( I assume?)! Of course a hesitant guy like him is gonna fail trying to give a gift to Kyoko. I just think he needs more confidence...and less sarcasm and intrusion from his neighbors lol. Well, it's still the beginning of the series so I'll be rooting for Godai and his journey to win Kyoko's heart <3 |
| Dog is my favourite character so far. |

| Eh. I think this needs to be given more episodes to grow on me. It could very well be a great series, but I don’t think I’m in the mood for this type of slow-burn romance right now. Initial impressions didn’t grab me well enough; the comedy didn’t hit hard enough and the characters are pretty uninteresting so far. So yeah, again, it really might be a great series, but for now I think I’d be better off shelving this and waiting until I’m in a better frame of mind for it. |
| Seeing how many episodes there are left, Godai has still plenty of chances. Guess this show is watched best in small portions. |

| Having watched MI about 5 times I can say it's #1 on my list of alltime favorite anime. The ending makes all the setups very well worth the time invested watching it. It does lend itself to marathon watching, the word "great" doesn't come close to describing how good the series is. It's just too bad I can't say that about any of Rumiko Takahashi's other series, though. |
| Life Is Short But Intense. |
| Sometimes I feel like I relate to Godai and he's experiences. I'm enjoying it so far, it's pretty laied back. |
"That smile was like the sun on a hot summer day...with eyes like ice." |
| I enjoyed this episode alot! I'm liking the slow story building/character building. The soundtrack when they were walking down the street at night was very nice (Saxophone suited the mood). So we see that Godai hears Kyoko saying "Souichiro", so Godai jumps to action to find out more about her supposed boyfriend only to find out while at the bar that, Kyoko is single! He keeps failing his attempt to give her a piece of jewelry he purchased for her. |

| I wonder how the heck those tenants earn their keep, no wonder the old manager was tired, he has to deal with idiots on a daily basis |
 |
| Let's all take a moment to thank anime god for finally killing off the boy-touch-boob-girl-hit-boy scene for the most part. One of the good things about modern anime. Real glad he didnt kiss her in her sleep. Godai is kind of creepy and pathetic so far. Judging by the response I'm not alone in thinking this episode was a bit lacking. It's good to see, judging from how positive people seem to be about this show I imagine itll start to pick up steam as it goes on. godai will probably mature over the course of the show, hopefully hell be more likeable then. Also yeah that ladder, lol this motherfucker is gonna get herself killed climbing around on the roof like that. |

| Godai You creep.... |
| Good to know Kyouko is more than just being nice; this episode was more entertaining than the first one. Godai is one dull creep. |
| Man, the OST used is pretty good, and the adaptation from the manga, especially those comedic moments and silent, aesthetic panels are expressed here pretty well. Let's see how good they are adapting the manga. |
 |
| No trains, count stands EPs 1/96 In total 3 |
| Just 2 episodes in, and a c-word winter holiday season episode already? Well, at least the theme was sort of underplayed and faced quickly, wishing it will be the first and last time. Poor Godai, accidental pervert on the roof (into a situation that could have ended so much worse) and into a situation more relatable than it seems when it comes to wanting to do something but something or someone else always interferes at the last moment. Akemi should apologize for throwing him out of his own room, but totally don't expect it will happen. At least, he spent some precious time with Kyoko. |
