I've seen the character of Ika Musume around the anime sphere for a while, especially in the meme culture, so it was finally time I get around to watching this one. It's very reminiscent of a lot of the other comedy anime I've enjoyed that involve some sort of alien/demon/outsider adapting to regular life in a modern human society. It's kind of like a reverse isekai in that way.

Ika Musume herself is a pretty funny character, but a lot of credit has to be given to the ensemble cast. The characters and their interactions really make or break a show like this as I find character driven comedy to be the best for this kind of setting. I really like the attention to little details like how the hole Ika busts in the wall in the first episode is always still there in the background until it gets patched up, but even then it's done obviously on the cheap and is still really obvious.

I like a lot of the running gags like how her weakness is shrimp and how stupid she acts when tempted by it or how she's always tormenting the one girl who's afraid of her. Overall it's a decently funny show and probably a good one to watch with friends. 8/10
