| Ill give it a few episodes...../a/ kinda made me watch it....but it seems like a generic lolis-in-a-club anime |
| no |
| A way better series than I thought, I like Kyoko's rambunctiousness. I'll watch this anime after all. 5/5 |
 |
| Wow, that Kyouko is a crazy one. Also has a thing for Chinatsu judging by Kyouko's actions. Hopefully some subs soon, so I understand it fully. |
 |
| As I thought this was quite the fun that I anticipated in the PV. Other than that Chinatsu when she was kid in the following,  was way too adorable especially as she was spying on her sister preparing tea and this way we all know her sister specialize as tea ceremony maiden. What a adorable close up of her face it was to see. I loved seeing Chinatsu the way she started to look up to Yui in the spoiler My next favorite is Kyouko in the following,  as you can see she is another girl that nose bleeds, which is uncommon considering that boys mostly get that problem in the anime. So it's nice to see another girl having that effect. Her forced skinship is just amazingly ecchi and perverted. Not heavy ecchi but intense. With breast groping of Yui and face rubbing on Chinatsu. Both her and Chinatsu will be fun to see interact in those ways. Kyouko was so hilarious with her key scenario towards Akari. I find her idea of the Ferris wheel here to be hilarious. Got to love her enthusiastic behavior towards the manga Akari found out along with the random magical transformation in the spoiler

geezer said: I also kinda expected Kyoko to sound more energetic and a little crazier but her voice is fine as it is now. agree. I guess the voice actress should have acted a bit more actively. I felt sorry for Akari, who is a protagonist but becomes background even from first episode... Only she is kept in ignorance of Gorakubu's good feeling relationship... Well, I hope her sister will be affectionate to Akkareen. |

| It was good overall. Just thought it was a little rushed, but the manga chapters aren't that long, so it's natural I think. Soon the anime will go further than the chapters we have translated. What bothers me is that I was sure Akari had a big brother, not a big sister. Or at least, here it's translated as big brother D: |

Or at least, here it's translated as big brother D: I thought so, too...perhaps they wanted to tone down the "creepiness" a bit? (who knows, maybe they thought a girl with a sister complex is less creepy than a guy with a sister complex) Or maybe Dynasty mistranslated it, which I doubt. I just hope that if they add some anime-only stuff, it'll be as funny as the manga gags. Dunno, there are 51 chapters atm, so it isn't impossible to animate everything without anime-only fillers if they drag some little scenes out...? P.S.: wow, yuru yuri even released an official relationship chart xD |

| The voice acting of the four characters seriously needs significant improvement. I know they're all rookie seiyūs, but it feels like a typical "textbook reading" (aka just reading script book out loud) to me, which adds a bit of rather unpleasant dryness to the show. But then, even current star seiyūs like Hanazawa Kana had this same problem in the beginning of her career, so I guess I need to be a little bit patient with this show. |

geezer said: Well that's interesting, should have kept the brother but I guess they are changing totally to girl yuri stuff and for that they needed to change the brother to a sister. It's done rather easily when you see the pillow has a lot lipstick kisses.Yuuh said: It was good overall.

geezer said: Oh shit! I did not know that exactly. That's nice to know so we might have in the end original anime stuff. Maybe I should read the manga, I am curious to see what else is to come up.Yumekichi11 said: 51 chapters? O_O How will they animate them all? Impossible for 12 episodes. This must be at least 24 episodes. Well the chapters are really, really short. Around 10 pages for every chapter and each page has big panels - so it isn't that much to animate, especially if you consider the fact that episode 01 already covered over 4 chapters. |
| Ep 1 covered 4 chapters, my goodness, it'll be almost completely animated in 12 eps. This is quite a trend this Summer, Ro-Kyu-Bu has mostly orginal source and now this, Ikoku Meiro is up there as well. |
|
| Loli and yuri, I`ll deffinitly check it out XD |
 |
| Meh, this one will probably disappoint me. |
 |
| so far, the only interesting ones so far is Kyouko (LOL) and that blonde haired short haired girl who was arguing with the blue haired girl.. xD;; no names appeared yet or so I think so meh, naming them by hair color //shot first episode made me laugh with the boob missiles that Kyouko came up with LOL might keep watching = u = |
 |
| Wow, this is like K-ON!, done right. Fuck, I want to see Akari's sister so bad... |

| The sisters room had me in stitches, that is one room nobody deserved to see! XD Also, loved Kyouko, she was quite funny so I might keep watching this series!! |
 |
| Kyoko ftw. geezer said: P.S.: wow, yuru yuri even released an official relationship chart xD LOL @ Akari presence. HawthorneKitty said: Wow, this is like K-ON!, done right. No.. its not. if you mean 4 girls talking then K-ON is cliched. |

That was creepy, having your friend's picture on everything under the sun including yuri magazines will really give anyone even perverts the heebie jeebies. |

| Cute girls doing cute things #4587. I like it. |
 |
| Cute girls doing cute things, Ranked #4990. A little better now? LOL |
 "A Legend is but a tale of a beautiful lie." |
| at first, i wasn't even sure to watch this anime, but then, i just gave it a try... and i love it so far!!! The artwork is really cute, and i just love the jokes, so far, its 5/5!!! Nobody can resists the cuteness!!! XD |
| Interesting, certainly entertaining. Glad this hasn't become another "A-Channel". |
| In the first few minutes i thought this would be just another pointless moeblob till Kyouko entered the room of Akari's big sister which was definitely the part which kept me watching. And i have to say that after that it greatly improved tho i have been wondering who Akari's sister is, guess we will see her next time. Kyouko is certainly the one that stands out the most of her group and she has some very weird obsessions from the looks of it. Just for confirmation that only male i saw was during the move to boost Akari's presence in the truck and i am not even sure if he was male.

| This was way more enjoyable then I thought it would be. I really lol'd at the ferris wheel and 'movie' part. Already thrown some mystery parts in the mix made it also more interesting to watch further. Solid 4/5 for this episode! |
| First new anime of the summer season which caught my interest^^ Kyouko is funny =) |
 |
HawthorneKitty said: Wow, this is like K-ON!, done right. Fuck, I want to see Akari's sister so bad... I agree with you 100% This episode was hilarious. |
| this reminds me of A-Channel... but less boring. I'll give it a few more episodes. |
 |
| So, who else sniffed out the lesbian within the first five minutes? XD (The main one anyway...) This show is gonna be good, I hope. It reminded me a lot of Hidamari Sketch for some reason. It's basically just another Moe Blob show so it won't be the best this season or anything.. but it still seems funny. Worth the watch. |
 If you don't remember something, it never happened. If you aren't remembered, you never existed. <3 |
HawthorneKitty said: Wow, this is like K-ON!, done right. No, K-ON is K-ON done right. /awaits flames I didn't actually think this was much like K-ON, personally. I liked it, I just don't see the similarities other than that it's about four girls in a club. The humour and atmosphere was really different imo. Liked this more than I expected to (and I knew I'd like it anyway), had me in stitches when they lampshaded Akari's lack of presence. "There's a spare pudding cup!" was probably my favourite part of the episode. Will keep watching. :3 |
| Hmmm it's like Minami-ke (well; obviously, it's the same director) meets K-On (funnier and more fast-paced). Hmmm Ok, I'll watch some more, even if the first episode didn't convince me, at least there are some interesting characters. |
 In every age, in every place, the deeds of men remain the same. |
HawthorneKitty said: Wow, this is like K-ON!, done right. Fuck, I want to see Akari's sister so bad... No K-ON is K-On done right. This was an ok episode. They need to have an appearence of Akari's sister. |
 |
| YURI YURA RA RA RA YURU YURI Oh man, I've been excited for this show since it was announced. The manga is really funny. Plus, even though it's not a real yuri show, it's nice to have at least something after so long. I think the last true yuri was Sasameki Koto in Fall '09. ;_; Akari better enjoy being the "main" girl now before they introduce Chinatsu, and Akari is reduced to the "girl who's redeeming characteristic is having no redeeming characterstics". LOL it didn't even take until the end of the episode for my favorite joke to happen. Poor Akari. Although I do agree it would have been better if they used the joke a few more episodes in. I thought Kyouko's seiyuu didn't really fit her too. I guess I was expecting something with more energy, like Satomi Satou's performance of Ritsu from K-ON! Good first episode, looking forward to the rest. |
| I definitely won't stop at this episode, because I'm quite curious about the sister. |
 |
| Thought I'd be getting more crap like A Channel with this show, but I certainly miss judged. It's pretty funny and entertaining. Can't wait to see Akari's sister. I hope we do get to. |
| Some good aspects, some bad aspects. I believe I can say the good outweighed the bad. I'll say I like it. |
Homura_Nyan said: HawthorneKitty said: Wow, this is like K-ON!, done right. Fuck, I want to see Akari's sister so bad... No, K-ON is K-On done right. - I like the OP/ED. - Oh wow, Akari's sister is into incest it seems. lol - Poor Akari. I remembered you! <3 |
| I really liked this first episode!! I will surely watch the whole season! 4/5 |
| This had the potential to be really squicky, but mercifully I thought it avoided that aspect pretty well for the most part (older sister's room excepted, I'd rather that gag be forgotten asap), but it also could have been a lot funnier than it was. I thought there were only two laugh out loud moments in the first episode - Akari's class introduction speech and the cutaway gag where she pulled the sword out of the umbrella rack. I think if you're going to have a character whose one gag is that she's a lesbian, she'd better be a psychotic rampaging teleporting lesbian who receives electric shocks on a daily basis. |

To be honest.....there should be NO comparison to K-ON!, this anime is not even remotely close to K-ON!, nor will it have the popularity or views that K-ON! had. This is nothing new, every season there are about 1-2 anime that feature 4 Cute School girls doing cute things. So, let's just end it right now, no need to have K-ON! Haters and K-ON! Fans start a war over something stupid. |
| i had my doubts because i thought it was just gonna be some light hearted show but it turned out alot better then i thought it would had, after seeing Akari's sisters room i knew there was gonna be some laughs to be had which there was and that meta moment was great i kind felt bad that i noticed Akaris barely had any presence after chinatsu joined haha. |
 |
| Though I told myself I won't watch this with out Maria Holic I need my weekly dose of yuri anime. |
alexcampos said: He is right though. K-ON was missing the fan service and this does the job besides a lot are thinking K-ON style a lot.HawthorneKitty said: Wow, this is like K-ON!, done right. LOL...NO.... alexcampos said: We already had with the breast groping as for the kiss, nothing yet.Please tell me we will have awesome YURI scenes!!! Meronpan_Chan said: Obviously ME!So, who else sniffed out the lesbian within the first five minutes? XD Jacut said: Now that's interesting! If you looks at the OP belowHmmm it's like Minami-ke (well; obviously, it's the same director) it does make sense that like Minami-ke I was overjoyed at the OP's pace and effect on me. In fact Minami-ke OP from season 1 and 2 always gave me the "Oh joy joy joy!" from Ren and Stimpy cartoons. |

To be honest.....there should be NO comparison to K-ON!, this anime is not even remotely close to K-ON!. Actually what i wonder is why people compare every 4 girl anime to K-ON!.. when K-ON! is not the first one to came up with this awesome story concept. if you want to compare then do with azumanga daioh, ichigo mashimaro,, hidamari sketch, minami-ke or at-least lucky star.. or i think people who complain have not watched anything but K-ON!. |

| That was a good episode. Hilarious too! |
| SUCH A GOOD SHOW... |
