THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.

Cuteeee OP song. I won't be skipping this one for sure.

Nice pose:


I'm glad this is a full series tbh and not a short anime. Oh and the bear was kinda funny. I'll look more forward to see what's coming soon.

Claire's an interesting girl btw and is pretty imo :3

It was painful to watch. It's a comedy show, but I failed to laugh. It would've been better if it was a 5 or 15 min episode.

DEFINITELY MORE FUN than the manga with music and animated characters. The jokes (besides the slapstick ones) need some Japanese sense of humor though. So it may not be for everybody but I quite like it.
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.

some first impressions would be that this is going to be a good show, not great but good, it has a necessary 30 minutes (directed to the guy who bitched) and I was laughing throughout the whole thing, It's like if Luckystar, K-On, Yuruyuri and Ouran HSHC were merged together into one batshit crazy anime. I will be watching more of this

Strange...
Try to be funny, but failed for me...
Random, really random...
Looks like cast is all new seiyuus
and they sound kinda oddly...

I thought this will be something like Aiura or Yuyushiki...

Once good point is animation :)
Well... I will check out second episode maybe then I will decide whether I should drop it...

I laughed quite a few times - so it's a good series.

For now will be watching it for sure, I only hope they won't go into repeating same jokes all the time.
Plus I really liked the characters, so additional reason to continue with it :)

I'm going to try and keep it to just one SOL show this season, this one might be it. Best part was when they had to go to story boards to even out the high frame rate section...

Other than that I find the SOL genre is starting to wear on me--particularly the cgdct (cute girls doing cute things) variety.
Please don't feed the trolls!

I definitely like it. This show reminds me of Seitokai no Ichizon.

The shounen parodies were great. She defeated one bear and there were four stronger ones waiting. I remember Haruhi-chan made that joke as well.

As a matter of fact, this show reminds me a bit of Haruhi-chan also.

Finished. Again like always, MAL and their hard to achieve scenes of humor. Oh well, more laughs for me I guess.

Very fun episode 1. Enjoyed it quite a bit. The frame scene near the end was hilarious. Natsuki's seriousness is quite amusing (Natsuki as the tsukkomi with the others girls as boke or so it feels).

Though one thing that kinda felt weird was the character design. Probably just me or their uniform or something but they for some reason look like guys dressed as girls to me...

I really love these character designs. I haven't seen great character design
for a long time. My impression is that character designs used to be better
before animation became computer-aided. But it seems that now they are
getting past that. Having a prominent "ahoge" (a strand of hair sticking up)
really helps identify one character. Part of good character design is to make
the characters sufficiently distinct from each other that we can quickly get
to know them.

I didnt expect Natsuki to be so serious, i thought she would be more like Yui from K-On or something.

Most of the jokes were funny, some of them didnt land though. Overall I enjoyed it quite a bit.

Nat-chan's ahoge is kinda disturbing.. But the rest of the characters were adorable and oh man Botan is really strong eh? @@

on the other hand, Otome Shinto sang the OP.. so I am guessing the CVs are from those in GJ-bu? Really like GJ-bu back then, so might stick around longer until the ahoge stops bothering me. :) My threshold is quite low too, so it was easy to make me laugh with all those simple jokes and adorable scenes xD

Disappointed this turned out to be a gag comedy anime.
When I read the tags "School, Seinen" I thought it would be a bit more serious.

Never been a fan of pure comedy anime.

Like mentioned by a lot here, reminds me of Seitokai...
Can't wait for more episodes to see if some story comes out of this or if they keep the pure comedy episodes. Not for everyone but i liked it.

Boring art, decent humor. The main's hair and personality are kind of annoying, but maybe I'll warm up to them. The hooded bears in the cave scene made me laugh out loud.

Isayama Hajime should be awarded The Manga with The Highest Inconsistencies of Characters' Appearances.
He keeps performing multiple plastic surgeries on those Shingeki No Kyojin characters in a SINGLE chapter.
Yes, I've read up to the latest chapter of Shingeki No Kyojin manga.
Forced myself to read through the kidsketching chapters after the anime's ended. At least from now on, I only have to go through the hell once a month.
Patiently awaiting SNK TV/movie/OVA anime-sequel.
The 2015 SNK live-action movie would probably suck.

I did not like most of the VA they were not so great i think the majority of them are newcomers? The only one i knew was Kido Ibuki and she is rather new as well but she has been quite good in the other stuff i saw her in.

The tsukkomi was also not done that well here i mean that type of humor pops up alot in anime but this time the Natsuki character does not pull it off well i also dont think much of Ibuki voicing her character this time. The tsukkomi probably the best way to describe it would be amateurish? It was just loud and sometimes not that clever and just shouting such obvious things in a straightforward way and to often? Either way Something was definitely off about it.

Though its not like i hated the episode and i still got a few laughs from it, i also liked that random seal. So i might give this a few more episodes just to give it a chance.
