Ahh man another beta MC. At least the other guy seems like he isn't. How convenient that he's meeting all these girls already. I like it so far. I hope they incorporate more college life things that we're not used to seeing in the more high school anime environment.

I like Takemiya's writing so I'm hoping this will go in the direction I think it will.

SINCE THE OPENING MADE IT PRETTY OBVIOUS!!!

Storming through the manga .. I thought I would never say this but

This series basically portrays one of my biggest romantic fears in life :( So many times I've been in the shoes of the protagonist but never got the ''good ending''. Well, I did with one of my ex-girlfriends but she wasn't that much of a best friend.

It will be an interesting ride for me indeed, almost painful to watch :/

Good start. It feels kinda relaxing mixed with some great comedy
Kouko is cute and Banri is innocent
Had some laugh, especially when Banri was in the middle of those dancers and blah blah blah
Friday gonna be fun

Not a bad start, it did seem to jump from one even to another rather quickly and the main character doesn't seem all that interesting so far but time will tell.

Judging by this episode its looking to be a harem, hopefully doesnt go too crazy with the amount of love interests, I'd rather have one or two with solid development.

Turned out surprisingly hilarious, especially when mistuo got smacked by that bouquet. So far, the MC doesnt have much going for him and almost feels like a background character and all those introductions of female characters makes it seem like it's going to lead into a harem of sorts.

It's the season of Yui Horie! and i'm okay with that

since Toradora was one of my favorites and i really did like Sakurasou i'm expecting good things from JC this year!

only slightly worried about the Male MC it's to early to judge but he seems like a nice guy but kinda of spineless, he doesn't stand out.

Sakurasou Wasn't That Bad Tbh, They Just Messed Up The Romance With The Characters There.

If The Mc Is Crap The Side Characters Or Other Protagonist Will Cover For Him [Hopefully]

Good first episode, wasn't all too bad. The characters seem pretty good, just from the first episode I know I would root for Linda but since the OP showed us Kouko x Banri is the otp I don't need to get my hopes up.

Kouko looks like grown up Taiga btw.

Finishes episode 1 of Golden Time...

Applause! You did it again JC Staff! I really love the atmosphere you set into the premise! Yui Horie is taking the helm!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also, a university setting!

Can't wait to see more of how Koko will develop with Tada (as seen in the opening).

I hope they won't pull some stupid triangle with Baniri hooking up with Kouko. I don't like how he's looking at her... All this weird blushing and lines like from a shoujo series. There's not much place for another character between these two childhood friends, so I'm afraid they will come up with something really ridiculous later.

One of my personal anticipated shows going into the season. Really enjoy the manga and it's J.C Staff doing a RomCom which I typically end up liking(AnoNatsu, Sakurasou, etc).

Not too much of a red alarm considering it's the only the first episode but a lot of Banri's charm was missing from the anime. Hopefully J.C Staff didn't remove it completely but he's more snarky/witty and goofy in the LN/manga which contributes to the comedy and why Kogo and Banri is my favorite character dynamic. It also makes it more believable why Kogo falls for Banri in the first place

If they're going for a more serious/grounded take then I guess that change is consistent with the tone. Won't know until I see more though



it clearly states at the begging of this forum post that you are not to discuss the manga beyond this point and you come along and ruin everything the first episode sets up not everyone reads the manga so stop giving spoilers no matter how obvious they may be.

As typical for a JC Staff production for another romantic comedy, slice of life story, which I am greatly admired for their works. Above that, the animation for it seems lighthearted and relaxing, as well as the characters were interesting from the start.

Ah well, the ending scene kind of caught me off gaurd. Also the OP is good and ED is really catchy.

But that is one annoying stalker delusionnal girl. She reminds of Shouko from Baka Test, without the kuudere part. I don't think being a stalker is cute. I want her to get arrested.

One of those anime that will probably grow on me as the series progresses. Well it's a two cour show, i just hope it is like many other romance genre anime from J.C. Staff. They only genre they are good at.

I can always count on J.C. Staff for an enjoyable romcom. I'm pretty much guaranteed to like this (this genre is usually a safe choice for me). The only thing I'm a little worried about is being left without a proper conclusion.

I haven't read any of the manga so this anime was a pleasant surprise that I happened to stumble upon as I find what I will be sticking with this Fall. The first episode was great and I am looking forward to the next one as I will be continuing to watch this.

Pretty good introduction, Kouko is a lot different than I thought she would be. Linda is probably my favorite so far.

I have a feeling that later on in the series Kouko will start dating or flirting with Banri to make Mitsuo jealous.

For a first episode it did a good job of hooking me to the series. Animation was good, funny moments. However I'm not too sure about the MC. He doesn't seem really interesting for the moment. Anyway, I don't really know what to expect from it but it looks like it's going to at least be a good series. That ED was great too.

Ya that was good. I have this sneaking feeling that watching this week to week is going to kill me at times.

ED > OP for at least the first set but both are good.

No it wasn't you. Something went wrong with that stream or during the encode process and we got the end result.
