Kouko was... so much different from what I as expecting. I thought she would be the typical cute moe girl but turned out to be an "overly attached girlfriend" / bitch kind of character. So glad she's not an annoying moe girl.

Banri was a very uninteresting character IMO, that's the only thing I didn't like about this episode. Anyway... overall, it was good, so I'll keep watching for now.

It's interesting, I hope they don't make this a HS show in a college setting. They have a chance to go beyond random HS life, I hope they do so.

I actually thought that was deliberate, with the other two and the two other girls I felt that they were going for the "sheltered country boy getting surrounded by interesting people" deal.

Not highchool girls, not harem, not ecchi.. OMG finally an anime i'll surely love. Best i've seen so far among fall anime that have aired (coz Kyoukai no Kanata was quite a disappointment) OP & ED are very catchy sung by Yui Horie (the seiyuu of the girl MC) Plus it's 24 episodes.. yay~!

P.S. Miss Monochrome (another chara voiced Yui Horie) @16:17 :D

new fave male character of the season: Mitsuo. The part where he got hit by the roses over and over again was hilarious! XD

Oh, and the Glee club too. :3

One of my look forward shows this fall since it's rare to have an animated uni romance but meh. It seems this will be Banri and Kouko in the end, and most likely in borderline harem. Not a fan of famous/rich and average person cliche pairing except in moving and drama stories. I'd prefer Banri x Linda and Mitsuo x Kouko that way.

Will keep watching just because it's a romcom in a college setting. MC seems pretty dull so far, the other characters have some promise.

Hm, really good first episode. Main character has little to offer but let's see what's there to it. Found the tsundere guy pretty funny. Wondering if the female will turn into a huge yandere also. I sort of like that she's got that split personality between the two guys. :P

Also, finally something with a law school, been waiting for ages, lol.

I wish they had been more subtle about who Banri would end up with in the very first opening, the OP just screams Kouko as the girl.

Is it weird that I enjoyed this way more than Kill la Kill?

I was looking forward to this and I'm not disappointed. Pretty good first episode, it looks promising. My only problem so far is the main character, he feels bland and boring, I hope that changes when the romance kicks in. 4/5

Okay, this is definitely not NTR whatever people say. I really like the college setting and the characters seem interesting too, although we got to see very little of most of them. Definitely looking forward to further developments.
I probably regret this post by now.

I actually liked this so far. Hoping the characters don't get annoying. I'm guessing Linda and Chinami are possible interests, but also seems he likes the stalker girl.

Yes I know what you mean. The OP also seems like spoilers :(. Still like Toradora! you know from the beginning and how it happens will be interesting.

It was a good start for the season, although Mitsuo's lengthy impersonation of Kouko wasn't needed.

Really enjoyed this first episode, but I'm hoping Kokou/Mitsuo stay as a comic relief side couple. Kokou seems too prominent in the OP and such though so we'll see where this goes.

It was very solid. My only fear is that the anime will fail to adapt the source material properly (also the sound mix was off - hope that gets fixed in the future), but it is early to tell. Even Toradora which is, for the most part, a great adaptation could not capture all the details in the character motivation (especially in the last arc) but that is normal for a limited time and budget constrains and, as a consequence, the not always good compromises that have to be done.

Still, it is only the first episode - which reminds me of Toradora's first episode and the first chapter of Golden Time manga. For some reason, I've dropped them both because I got the wrong impression at first but later on picked them up again and loved both. So, I'll repeat any kind of value judgement needs more data. :)

Also knowing a bit of story from the manga (that I'll not spoil - which is now up to the 3rd book of the 6th published so far without the spin offs - the 7th one will be published soon) some of the assumptions about how the story will proceed (but not all) are wrong which means that the story itself is not too much riddled with cliche. :)

Start was a bit slow but the ending was very nice and i really like the personality of that girl, she made for a good laugh.
I am already looking forward to next week to see what more this anime will bring.
That conversation during the lecture was brilliant especially because the girl was sitting right after them the howl time.

What a happy/funny anime, really looking forward to episode 2.
Girl was sitting behind the boys all the time, I thought: ''This has to be a comedy scene''. That Koko is a happy character. Also nice art.

This episode deserves a 8 overall.

So I haven't read the manga or even read a synopsis of it but I tried watching this episode and found myself thoroughly enjoying it. It looked like "just another love story" but it feels like it could turn into something amazing! I can't wait for the next episode! :)

Damn, that was a really enjoyable first episode. Just starting university myself makes this all the more interesting. Linda seems like the girl i'll be rooting for, though i don't hate the main girl (she's really cute, and a yandere~).
When the Main dude and Mitsuo met up for the first time, it was such a 'bro' first meet-up, just can tell they'll be having a great friendship (hope they don't put mitsuo on the backburn, and just use him for comedy relief).
All in all, this'll be one of the shows i know i'll have a blast watching.

OT: This is very good. The meetings with all the girls in the show was well done and didn't feel like the typical harem run into her, knock her down, and grab a boob meeting. Looking forward to the rest. It's also going at a nice pace, not too slow or too fast, hopefully it stays this way.

An interesting series, the OP/ED are really catchy! This is turning out to be pretty amusing, I was cracking up when Koko randomly appeared to smack Mitsuo with flowers. And that Latin Music Club was crazy, surrounding people like that. I have a feeling the romance is going to get complicated in this one.

University ?!

This is a great episode!

I like how Tada and Mitsuo were just talking and Kaga was just behind them listening. Tada is already in a harem?! First day of university?!?! He is such a gentleman too. Looking forward to the next anime and nice cut when the motorcycle is about to hit (maybe) him.

Ohshit. This is good. This is promising. I'm so excited.

I can already feel that there will be a huge romance drama in the later episodes. It's written by the same author as toradora after all. I'm excited for the twist that will happen. It's impossible that this will be a normal rom-com anime. Well, at least I hope it won't.

I like the characters. The art is gorgeous.

Damn, I haven't seen a good romance Anime in a while so I'm expecting a lot from this. Hope it will be as good as Toradora!
