There are no spoilers in this review.
I just finished Nichijou I have to say I enjoyed it allot but it's not something which is fantastic in every aspect.
Story
The story is about the life of 3 school girls and a robot. That's it. Nothing more to it, nothing less to it, just 26 episodes about life set as a comedy. What made this enjoyable wasn't the story but the comedy.
It would be foolish to think of this more than a comedy. I found myself enjoying it less later in the series as it became less random as it seemed they were trying to wrap things up in a shorter time frame.
That feeling of being rushed does take away the enjoyment sometimes.
Tech
I think my favorite part of the show was the art style. I really liked it, simple but effective. It's not overly impressive compared to other shows, but it really suits the feeling of Nichijou. If the story was more serious I don't think the art style would have paid off.
The sound quality was good, and the sound effects where fun.
Characters
The characterization was pretty well thought out in general. There were no useless characters and they all fulfilled their roll in the show, which is to entertain us. The designs fitted the art style and there wasn't a bad design amongst them all.
Conclusion
An enjoyable comedy with plenty of gags. I found allot of the screaming gags to be a bit much though and took away from me enjoyment a fair bit. But overall it was fun. I don't think this show would be a big prize winner for anything though.
