So far I've watched 7 and episodes and while the 7th has been the best so far it's just not really grabbing me. I mean, it's supposed to be a comedy and yet there's been episodes where I don't laugh at all. Some of the things that I find funny in it I'm sure weren't meant to make people laugh such as at the end of episode 6 where the internet addicted woman made the creepiest face ever.

I really want to like this anime since I've already almost watched a third of it but I need to know whether or not it gets better because at the moment I'm thinking of dropping it.

Well it says comedy but there are different kinds of comedy, this isn't laugh out loud funny, it's just ha ha every once in a while funny. This anime is more supernatural, if the type of supernatural episodes don't capture you at all then you might want to drop it.

I don't think there is any big comedy, It's a supernatural(kinda mystery) type anime and if you are watching it only for comedy then you might want to stop. Or realize that there won't be any comedy that you will like and watch it for it's supernaturalness and story.

Well, I ended up dropping it. I watched about half of the 8th episode and it just wasn't holding my attention. I could've gotten over it not being comedy since most of the animes I watch are actually action but the story in this just wasn't that interesting. The main character was also pretty annoying. Honestly I'm suprised it has the score that it does if it just continues on like that. Thanks for the answers though guys.

Watched 3 eps by far.

And that dumb "comedy" scenes are the worst parts of the show.


I guess I will drop the anime if they continue to appear.

I had the same problem with this anime. Really unfunny comedy, especially when the retarded main character had his annoying freak-out scenes. The show is also extremely procedural, without any real storyline going on - and the cases of the week aren't even interesting or entertaining in the least. The artstyle and character designs are horrendous, with every character having spider-like, overly thin limbs. I was expecting better, mainly since the rating of the series was pretty high. Oh well, it's a drop for me.
