Art/Sound: The animation isn't horrible. But it mostly only adds to the frankly awful and unfunny humor and the character designs are really unflattering. The first OP was decent, and the first ED is notable for the ending animation alone. It's actually quite interesting, even if it's really stupid.

Story/Characters: A friend of mine who loves this show who doesn't get why I hate it so much keeps telling me 'it's just supposed to be a light and fun why are you judging it so harshly?' My answer usually ends up being, 'just because it's fun and light means it has to have unlikable, uninteresting, and frankly hatable characters.' You can have a fun light show with interesting and endearing characters and actual funny moments. They don't even have to be the best show ever to have this. Himouto Umaru-chan! is a fun show about an otaku who spends her entire life lazing around while her family members do all the work. And it's entertaining, funny, and the characters don't make me want to punch all of them in the FACE. Squid Girl is a fun little show with an endearing protagonist who makes you laugh and has a ton of fun. And if you're looking for something of even higher quality watch Hatakaru Maou-Sama! (AKA The Devil is a Part-Timer). When I watch shows of a certain genre, I end up comparing them to others in that genre I have watched. And as I watched it I was thinking, there are so many better comedy shows I could be watching with actual compelling and entertaining characters and a better story (though the premise is one of the better things about this show).

Side note: I was actually going to give this show a 2/10, because at that point the show had never outright offended me. Then I watched that episode where all the people DYING OF THIRST give up ALL THEIR WATER just to watch the sextuplets SWIM AROUND SHIRTLESS BECAUSE SEXINESS! Like seriously. SERIOUSLY! This episode was actually offensive to me as a person.

Final: I recommend that you watch any of the shows mentioned above instead of wasting your time on this one like I did. I wish I could have that time back to watch literally anything else. Other comedy anime to watch as apposed to this: Baka to Test, Hetalia, Kuroshitsuji, Lucky Star, Noragami (which is actually one of my favorite anime ever), One Punch Man, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (and if you've already seen that), The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan, even something like Black Lagoon or Angel Beats! are way funnier than this show, even if they aren't pure comedy. Heck, Yu Yu Hakusho has made me laugh WAY more than this show (same with Hunter x Hunter actually).
