A K-ON! copy????? Really not very impressed.
Please stop comparing every new slice-of-life moe adaptation to K-ON. It's not like K-ON invented the genre.

The music sounded a lot like "Lucky Star" to me - Checking the staff on ANN, I just figured out why.

The episode itself had - to me - a slighty too flat ending. Personally it didn't quite catch me, but I'm interested on how and when they're trying to change that and develop it further.


The music did indeed remind me of Lucky Star, and even the character design with the whole loli look for highschoolers. A good first episode, ending was kind of meh but it seems like it'll turn out to be a great slice of life series. Btw Tooru is so cute


I'm a die hard fan of KyoAni's 4 panel series so I really mind, if you're all comparing this meh series to KyoAni's, it sound more like JOKE if you comparing it. and I've re-watched Lucky Star 7 times, (even the music) nothing except the voice of Tsukasa remind me of Lucky Star...

Just the moe and slice of life isn't want makes it awfully similar. Did you not notice the main damn character(Yui?) and the Mio clone? Also we have an overprotective Azusa. Also, school environment, love for sweets, all together make it very similar.

Characters are cute, animations are decent and whatever.The only problem I had with this episode, was simply the fact that it was incredibly boring, I couldn't concentrate on anything that is going on.

That's the single reason why I am dropping this.

Some pretty harsh reviews we got for this anime :/.

This.

I wonder why this show is getting lots of hate after only one episode. it was not the best but it definitely was not so bad for the first episode. there is a similar show Nichijou, i enjoyed OVA but 2 episodes of TV series was really boring for me but somehow everyone loved that. i couldn't think anything but KyoAni factor.

I just watched it because it looked like a cute slice of life anime, But liked it much better than I thought I would.

I really thought at first that I didn't like this anime but then last minute I had to put together a cosplay. I picked Tooru and then I realised that I really like this anime (Tooru is the cutest tsundere this season!)

To hell with this show... towards the end of this episode I yawned so hard that something cracked in my jaw.
By the way, this comment was funnier than this whole ep:

Getting the K-ON! vibe, which is a good thing.

Implying that anything related to K-ON! can be good in any way (yeah, yeah, a few - like 2 or 3 - songs were).

I won't drop it as I want to give it this low score it will have most likely deserved for by the end of the airing.


Wow you won't drop it?

I yawned so hard as well. I'm a fan of K-On but this one....is a no no. Drop and drop.

One word: SHIT.

Direction is crap, like, really, really crap. You really can feel the 4koma wipes and feel when a strip ends and when the new begins. Art Direction is shitty as well, everything looks like crap and plastic. Character designs are dull. They had like 3 jokes which they used 3-4 times. It was simply boring and dull. The main character isn't even that cute. Shame this shit got so good animation. And I say all this as a BIG fan of K-ON and Hidamari Sketch.

The director should be fired.

No clue what you're talking about, the art was phenomena, and so was the art directionl. I loved it!
And the art design was solid, yet subtle. Amazing mix.
And I don't see how it was boring at all. Besides, if it was boring how come u watched it to the end? :3
And it's slice of life

In terms of being boring this one doesn't even come close to Lucky Star. Although I did enjoy Lucky Star to an extent. This show does look very promising though. Can't wait for more!

Nice first episode, it did remind me alot about K-ON!. Alot of the character's personalities are similar to K-ON! like how Run-chan is like Yui-chan for her clumsiness. I can relate Yuuko-chan with Mio-chan since they both are always embarrased alot and scared about scary things. The animation was good, I really liked the lighting in the anime aswell. Even though the anime doesn't look to original, it's still has good potential to be a good anime series.

I was sort of mislead into thinking this was more than a 'slice-of-life' series. Nonetheless, it wasn't that bad other than the fact it reminded me of ''K-ON''. I hope this series isn't too long, I don't know how much of the cuteness I can bare. Looking forward to the next!

For you guys who think this anime is bad should just drop it and stop complain the directors and things like that. Do you guys know how many works have to be done to create a anime? You guys should pay some respect!

It's been a while since I've been able to stop and watch some CGDCT, it's very refreshing and fun. The art style is really soft and easy on the eyes. A good first impression, overall this is soothing and funny so far.

Not sure how Run can still be alive heh.

I think that this was a pretty good first episode, but I'm a bit worried about Tooru's bullying to Yuuko getting tiring.

Tooru is Run's bodyguard, hm.. Well, if she almost got hit by car when she followed butterfly in the morning.. I guess maybe she needs some protection.. Not sure, how much of it, who knows.. Like, does she also need protection from boys?.. Well, if she's that careless on the road, someone might fool her into sex or something, using her there as well, I guess.. But also you won't be protection from this all the time, on the other hand, as sooner or later it'll be up to her to decide such things..
But it's also Tooru who needs Run a lot.. Or at least wants to be with her a lot.. As maybe Run is easy going and gets fine with mostly everyone..

Re-watching this show.

The OP and ED are nice. I also liked that insert song.

That yuri misunderstanding was hilarious.

Tooru's world exploded, haha.

Ouch! Poor Yuko. Someone is not too happy about the situation.

I didn't like this first episode so much when I saw it for the first time. Now I think this is a great episode. It was really enjoyable.

I love the main cast and their interactions.

Yuko has a very similar appearance with Mio from K-ON! She's also a scaredy-cats and gets embarrassed easily, just like her.

Nagi is a very smart girl.

Run is so funny and ditsy. She almost fell out of the window. x3

Tooru's obsession towards Run is both and weird at the same time. She's really jealous of her.

They look so cute together. <3

Tooru should smile more often. She has a beautiful smile. :)
