It gave me a chuckle, but that's it. For its short length I'll probably not drop it, and I'm also interested in how far they can push such a simple concept.

OP animation is great.

That's a lot of rubbers. And a seriously impressive domino pattern.

The premise is definitely funny. Plus you can't do wrong much with a 7 minute-comedy show.
I'll keep watching.

I found it kinda weird that Yokoi speaks everything so loudly. They're in class trying not to get caught, they should've kept it between "inner thought" and "frantic whisper" most of the time.

Everything else is nice though. I got distracted by sensei's lecture at the beginning just because I like history.

That was funny.

I was surprised that Seki had so many erasers and used them as Dominos.

The opening and Ending were pretty good.

I'm getting Nichijou flashbacks. I don't mind the shortness, just the right amount of time to lighten up my day. :)

It feels so nice to watch something you've read animated. Kanakana wave again, and I don't mind, she deserves every inch of attention she gets for her distinct voice roles.

CGI was really the only thing that bothered me, the rest I wasn't expecting it to have high budget anyway. Great ED idea too.

The OP is awesome and the ED is amazing. I can already tell I am going to enjoy this anime with Seki the master of killing time.

Great first episode!!!

Nice episode, looks like I'll enjoy these shorts.

But seriously, who carries that amount of erasers and brings a firework to school?

Trust me, the shit Seki will get up to eventually will make the erasers and fireworks seem pretty normal by comparison.

definitely

They should have done two chapters per episode, but still good like this.

i was thinking that as well, they have enough material for 2 cours, but their only doing one chapter/shit. and with the animation style....
im guessing there's not really a big budget on it, might have spent it all on Hanazawa Kana.

That wide eyed expression :P

That was hilarious I've never seen such seriousness in dominos before and the animation of that scene was brilliant, if they keep this up it may become one of my all time fave shorts 0_0 also the music track to the ED was cool.

meh... the animation looks so cheap. If I knew Japanese, I'd *listen* to this show at least, as I love Hanazawa Kana's voice. I'll watch the second episode and drop this if the visuals do not improve.

The perfect 10-minute series to start your anime viewing session or one that you watch in between serious/heavy series.

Being Yokoi is suffering lmao. HanaKana is perfect for the role.

I was looking forward to this, and it's living up to expectations.
And once again, we are presented with the wonderfully inescapable Hana Kanazawa.

Damn, too short. D:

I love Kana as Yokoi, her voice is perfect for this role.
And if Seki had been my seatmate, I probably would have failed all my classes. He's a fucking genius.

By the way, DAT OP & DAT ED.

That domino set-up was nice. Poor Yokoi, though. Getting scolded even though she's done nothing.
