Tchaikovsky, Chopin, and Beethoven. All in one episode. Damn.

Also, this anime is hilarious and I love it more than it probably deserves. Love it.

I'd recommend reading the manga to anyone who enjoys this show, because it contains a lot of material that was left out from this episode's chapter.

Double-J with baths instead of obscure jobs. I like it. Why is it listed as three episodes on MAL though? It was six earlier today, which seems more accurate if the following weeks are like this one.

even though the animation was quite terrible, i really quite enjoyed this, i think it is because it is teaching me about roman and japanese baths, i like!

also i recognise the accent of the singer in the ED, could some one tell me where they think she is from just out of interest?

I don't find this show funny, feels like it's geezer humor

Atleast the dying geezer had happy ending on the bath with a wife and a child.

While I'm no expert in history, I refuse to believe that the Roman "bath houses" were less fancy than modern Japanese ones. Or that they didn't have nice bottles made of glass. I still enjoyed it.

Despite the dreadful animation - which I suspect is meant to add some humour - I really enjoyed this. But just 3 episodes? And we've seen two? O.O Why? ;_;

But yeah, the manga is pretty big in Japan, isn't it? I wish the anime was longer.

Yeah... dat animation. It seriously adds to the humour a little.

And did anyone see the lyrics of the ED. Haha.

The anime is so short because it is essentially a time slot filler before BRS starts airing.


Which is a huge shame because this show is amazing.

The singer, Hashimoto Eriko, is from Tokushima city. I was banging my head when I first heard the ED thinking to myself "I know that voice...". I've never seen Chatmonchy in concert but I have almost all their albums.

As for the show...it's a good chuckle. Lucius is a good foil. Smug and superior but having to endure embarrassment and surprise at the hands of the mundane things in Japanese life. Having watched it I keep thinking would be nice if there were a sento in my neighbourhood. The closest one I know of is at the gym I go to.

This series is awesome. The Roman era is my favorite period of history (next to the far future Galactic Empire) and this series is just fun.
Blergh.

I love the historical mixed with comedy... (thats why I love the niche' Hyougemono so much!)

This is just want I needed... no mainstream, niche', short/sweet, funny, + historical.

As a person with a classics degree and a love for anime, this show is making me crack up like you wouldn't believe. So funny.

My issue has been the episode lists from Discotek and then online lists. I'm seeing a lot on the disc from Discotek not described in the MAL descriptions. I'm curious if anyone can bring some clarity to this so I can mark my MAL account properly.

A very nice quirky series with flat faced slaves and naked men. This is definitely a break from HS romances and harems.

This was a nice fan-made production, because it was a fanmade production right?
Jokes aside the live action part in the onsen is cool
P.S: Although i was referring to the new version not this one, my mistake
