Tonari no Seki-kun on MAL
LunaOct 5, 2013 5:52 AM
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

I must admit that I don't think I've ever heard of this series before.

But the synopsis sounds interesting, so I guess it's worth a try.
There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do.

I have done a bit more research about the manga after reading the news. Apparently the girl and the boy almost NEVER have conversation, which is understandable because things almost always happen during lesson time. I find it very intriguing.

Please leave replies on my profile page, as I am unlikely to see them otherwise. Thanks.

Yeah, it's just the girl doing tsukkomi and her interpretations of his games. It's kind of the same gag every chapter, which ones can be very intriguing and others just meh. Nevertheless, it's a fun reading.

From the synopsis, I instantly recalled the scene in 'Nichijou" where Yuuko was the only one witnessing Mai being the eccentric troll she is, during an exam.

Glad that it is getting an anime. 1 of my favourite manga :D
I hope it will be 1 of those 5minutes per episode. 1episode = 1 chapter will be just right.

Let's hope this Tonari will be as good as Kaibutsu-kun.
I probably regret this post by now.

This is MAL. We love to make random comparisons which make no sense whatsoever.

I cannot see this working in any format other than the recent 2-5 min. thing. Hopefully they will be able to bring the humor of the manga into the screen, but it is going to be difficult.

I thought it might have been related to Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun since 'Seki' is the only different word o_o

May check it out.
