Can I watch this as a newcomer?

Sorry for the late reply.

There's a quick introduction of the characters and stuff at the beginning, so I think even newcomers will enjoy it.

Say less, thanks for the info!

I think yes. The story is about a daily life of Ryou Saeba, how he and his friends help to keep their town in order.

There is no strict order whether you should watch the series from the very beginning.

I hope that they continue the anime series from the manga chapter on which it ended. We need such classic series to be revived!

ED is simply fantastic! The song is amazing!

Okay, sounds good, thanks!
