Some reviews are harsh, some are good, ad here is my piece of mind: I like this anime. Granted it could ghave been a lot more, but as it is using the works of a Master Writer as H.P. Lovecraft and makes a parody with the Chthulhu Mytos, the idea itself would deserve a 9, not even counting its audacity!

Those that know H.P.Lovecraft will laugh and recognize a lot on this story, especially the presence of the Yith, the Mi-go and Nyarlatothep of course. The use of such characters (Cthuga is very funny, and given its original being so much powerful and terrfic, even more hilarious).

As Lovecraft's work can be considered Science Fiction, the way it was parodied here is fantastic, and many parts are so much more funny if you know what and which stories its parodiy comes from.

When I first knew what was the concept of this anime I was thrilled, and even though it is parody I laughed a lot.

That being said, I also like strong female characters with resolution and decisiveness, and Nyaruko knows what she wants. The boy is your regular dork and waste his time refusing the adorable Nyaruko (aha, must have a reason for the gags, as her atempts are funny). Chthuga is funny, but I am not a fan of Yuri anyway, but she is ot the aggressive one against the male character as in other stories and that was refreshing.

Of course they could have done much, much more with such an idea, but as this is a parody, then ok.

I recomend it for its execution, art, music, and for its origial and daring concept! And if you know or not Lovecraft's works, either way you will laugh a lot (although it is much more fun for those that do read Lovecraft's works)
