Ooh, I like this opening song. Very cherry and energetic with playful energy!

As for the episode, we are introduced to the main girls from the start including Itsuki. I like the character exchanges so far especially with how humorous they made this. The added touch of the music made the episode flow well.

Others like Ichika, Yotsuba, Miku, and Yotsuba also showed up. For an introductory first episode, I think they established the primary story well so far. Looking good.

I've read the manga and dropped it after around 5 or 6 chapters. So I wasn't expecting anything from this series, story-wise. Just wanna say the animation quality of this adaptation is pretty...mediocre.

This manga is one of the best romance manga i've ever read and definitely the best harem manga. The girls have god tier character development level and as time goes by you can't even decide who is best girl. The authors are really trying their best to make it different from other harems and they have achieved that. They do things the way they are supposed to be done ( Like Nino's Case ) and it's absolutely not a first girl win manga. I understand that you dropped it early but i highly recommend it and i think you should give it a second chance.

One word: Boobs.

But i feel like that is the factor that will be the most important for me in this series, will it be enough to stay ? Not sure tho. But i can't help myself to think that i already saw/read/heard/play those female characters somewhere else.

If there was ever a harem of girls I'd want besides the High School DxD ones, I think I'm gonna have to go with these sisters lol

I dunno how one could chose a favorite but if I determine this by who I find to be the most attractive, it's definitely KanaHana's character (Ichika I think her name is....The one with the short hair cut), man she was too hot...MC's imouto is adorable too (That dad being such a MAN had me shook tho, I wanna see the mom now - But I'm guessing she died or something)

But I can already tell that I'm gonna love this, especially since as of now, the MC isn't meh like most harem MC's....The visuals are freaking great though, I did not expect it to be of this quality

I feel like the MC carried this episode. Hopefully the next episode can expand upon the 5 girls enough so that they can each have their spotlight.
Don't get me wrong, this was a solid episode. A 7.5/10 for me.
Though I'm curious how a show can balance a MC and 5 other characters consistently.

eh, kinda confused why they include the wedding ceremony scene in episode 1. and what girl is that of the 5? or that's the point that they all have similar faces and eventually someone will change the hairstyle to that one. maybe that's why they mute her voice, huh

Yes this is like the key point in this waifu wars.

Adaptation is really enjoyable or maybe it is because i know the characters alreade. At the beginning manga is on the verge of being incoherent to the point of missing some causal links in character's actions, and its really shocking how much better it gets; anime and dynamics that it has, unlike the manga, helps the story big time.

This will most likely be my favorite for this season, 5 cute girls who happen to be quintuplets.. 3 of them voiced by my favorite voice actors. This will be so tough to choose a "best girl". However we'll have to see how it goes with development and stuff.

Also... Matsuoka as the male lead. For me, this can only become better from here on out.

Overall the episode did a great job introducing the sisters. Each of them has a very interesting personality.

Can't wait to see more of this.

At last Gotoubun no Hanayome came out, the wait was worth it.
Uesugi is quite serious and tactless with women, so I think he will suffer a lot dealing with these quintuplets.
The appearance of Itsuki was great, for god that girl is a glutton, that bowl was minimal for two people, and her pouting is so cute, but despite that I loved her, I also love the voice of Inori Minase.
Ichika is hot, I think it's the best word to describe her, although after seeing her room, let's say that she must change her cleaning habits, I also think they were right in choosing Kana Hanazawa as her seiyuu.
Yotsuba is the most adorable with her smile and her positive attitude, and I love that the seiyuu is Ayane Sakura (sorry, I love that she made Hazuki's voice).
I think Nino was the hardest to deal with, it is quite direct and aggressive with Uesugi, although I suppose that she will be the tsundere of the group while we see her in future episodes, besides it was dirty of her part to drug Uesugi to get rid of him, I think the seiyuu they chose was a success, and she has also made the voices of several characters that I liked. .
Miku is a beauty (I'm sorry, it's my favorite), seeing her talking and moving is a pleasure, and I love how she mistrusts Uesugi, but that will change in the future, and I love the voice of the seiyuu they chose.
I think Raiha is the most sympathetic and manipulative little sister there is, Itsuki fell with those false tears immediately.
Anyway, I think it will be a pleasure to see this anime, the animation is very good along with the characters design, the quintuplets were spectacular from head to toe. The OP is quite fun, delivers a very good fanservice and the ED sounds pretty good , although we will have to wait until the next episode to see the visuals of the ED.
The next episode looks promising, since it will be focused on Miku from what I saw in the preview, I want to see that scene in which she takes off her stockings.

Well, I'm normally not a big fan of harem's but this one seems amusing enough.

All the girls are quite likable but none of them really stood out to me as much. I guess we'll see as the episodes go on. The voice cast however is absolutely fantastic, at the very least I will watch this for Ayaneru, KanaHana and Minase Inori. XD

All that said, Raiha is probably the real best girl. XDD

Art looks fantastic, so points for that.

Boring, uninteresting. I did not like the premiere is very empty and generic. The mood moments of this anime are horrible. Nothing is funny. I honestly will not follow.

Not bad, but not great either.

However, Ichika is best girl for sure, and the MC Futaro was actually more interesting than all girls, which is rare for harem anime.

Being in Manga that's very questionable ATM.

Although if it's a typical harem yes she would win by default.
Tsundere character sure be loved.

But for me at least Miku,Ichika is godsent.

I really dislike the harem genre but this one actually seems good! I like the girls and the mc, there's a bit of fanservice but that's okay. So he's gonna marry one of them in the end? Itsuki, judging by the red hair... Interesting.

This season anime with best cast for voice actors so far.

Matsuoka play like Soma especially when he called his dad "Oyaji"
Inori acting as Itsuki is different from what i heard her role like Rem or Kimari a bit more mature.
Ayaneru as Yotsuba just like her acting as Ochako in MHA
HanaKana, there is no doubt about her acting, fit for Ichika.
I'm not familiar with Itou Miku as VA, i know her as singer and also one of Bang Dream band vocalist. so this is first time i hear her acting.
Same for Ayana, except that she already have more role than miku but i just didn't see enough her role.

First episode is definitely carried by the MC. now i expect quintuplets make something interesting in next episode

If it goes by the manga, then it'll do an okayish job at it. Most of the focus goes towards Miku and Ichika throughout the series, with focuses on Itsuki and Futaba happening more in the beginning and focuses on Nino happening more later on. MC obviously has the center of attention

I meant Yotsuba.

Lmao.

My apologies if I made a fool out of myself, stuff has been going on with me in the background so that's why I wrote that without thinking and I meant Yotsuba
