Mixed Feelings
Preliminary (12/13 eps)
(I'm not very good with reviews but I'll try my best here)

I was going to write the review at the end of the series but since it looks like a recap episode so I'll push the review to this week

Story - 5/10
I'll be generous here. The one big problem I found with this anime is that it does not have a consistent plot (there was a plot but it was in and out). Every episode in the middle of the series went off on a story of their own and they all felt like fillers. From what I can remember this anime was supposed to be a romantic comedy which I have no problem with, but I would actually like a little development each episode! The ending however was actually quite decent because it went back to a plot point which they had in the beginning, orphans who are happy because of the "family" they create with each other. Although the story messed up in tons of places, I think the ending was good enough to prevent from giving it a lower rating.

Art -8/10
I really have no complaints with this area, the animations looked fluent and although I've seen better artwork I thought this one was alright.

Sounds- 8/10
Another area which I have no complaints about. It had an interesting opening song which I think a person would either hate or love, I personally loved it. The background music was used at the appropriate times and the voice acting was alright.

Character- 8/10
A lot of the characters seem average in this anime with the exception of Fumino, who really stood out to me. Fumino is not your ordinary Tsundere, I really can't explain what it is but she is different from the ordinary Tsundere (in a good way) and perhaps was one of the few good things the anime offered. One problem I had is that there wasn't enough focus on Nozomi which wouldn't be a problem if this anime wasn't named Mayoi Neko Overrun. She did get a lot of focus towards the end but that was too little too late.

Enjoyment- 6/10
I really enjoyed the first 3 episodes and I found the last 2 alright, which leaves the middle episodes. There were one or two episodes in the middle that advanced plot which I enjoyed but the rest I really couldn't stand. All those fillers that they put in really weren't funny with me only occasionally chuckling. I really don't know what happened, did they run out of ideas?

Overall- 6/10
Overall I really wouldn't want to recommend this anime to anyone. It's a shame really because I really liked what they were going for in the beginning and I thought that this anime had potential to become something amazing but it fell well short of what I and many hoped for and it ends up as another let down.
