I came towards "Nyaruko-san" with fear and caution: I might get yet another moe-fied piece of animu garbage; where the spotlighted male lead would yet another spineless herbivore.
Well... Said male lead, Mahiro, has a female voice actress. (We could say that he's in middle school or that Japan's overall herbivorism had taken its toll.) But that's about it. He's able to surprise me by being "the fan who smacks the idiots" as oppose to being yet another "butt of thy jokes."
So here we have this show about Nyaruko, a moe-fied Nyarlothotep and brazen female otaku, constantly trying to pull it out of Mahiro's pants for reasons unknown... Comedy ensues, references are made, Akihabara is considered as "THE place to go" for "Earth's entertainment(?)"... (Hollywood? Bueller?)
My only complaint is with Mahiro's seiyuu being female instead of male. If his male friend can haz it, then why not?
(Hoping for an English dub release from Media Blasters as well... ;_; )
