Ah the classic bunny suits.

I can't watch most anime in real time either due to where I live.

Ru:Zero, Sold Out Offline lol and of course there was also The Melancholy of a Happy Vuvuzela.

Someone now knows about the cat.

Well that was quite the ending, hooray we got 6 members, nope it's being barred.

I really like the art style of this show. The main girl and her sister are super cute.

Really enjoyed this one, it was loaded with references. Really liked the Haruhi reference, and of course all the Re:Zero conversations.

This was painfully accurate when portraying different types of fans; you have the original material purist, the anime only lover, the weeb, the newbie, and the idol fanatic. Listening to their argument was even more accurate of how people fight.

Really looking forward to more from this one.

The bunny outfits... that music... thats a reference to Melancholy of Haruhi right? And they referenced a ton of anime I'm actually familiar with instead of a bunch of old stuff I can't really get into now.

Anyway, literally the entire cast somehow managed to fit in an introduction in just one episode, then two of them got into a fight, nearly broke up, resolved the problem with a speech from our MC, and then lose the club for some reason... And I'm sitting here still trying to figure out where this anime is even going because of the talking cat and the thing with that hat from episode 1. I look forward to more.

I always wondered one question:

Why do Japanese anime industry every year put so much effort in producing this kind of crap shows instead of making continuations for popular and awaited shows like Berserk, Kingdom, Hunter x Hunter; or serializing the most popular manga waiting in the top of the list?


berserk got a continuation, tf you on,
hunter x hunter is basically almost caught up so cant make another season
kingdom already got 78 eps which is alot, and has not really any reason to make anymore

you are using the word serializing wrongly since most if not all manga are serialized

also what list? the western list that no one gives a shit about?
the best selling and popular manga list ?
where most if not all of the top 20 have anime adaptations already?
i dont even
So embarrased with Tensura fans and the fandom, how have we degraded

I like the fact that the most Otaku of them all, the guy with the exaggerated Chuunibyou character, Kai, tries to act the most as the cool guy by wearing his school uniform with his blazer unbuttoned and hanging on his shoulders like a cool guy.

I guess he has to button it up in classes or he will be scolded by the teachers for not obeying the school dress code in class, so he only wears like that when outside of classes ?
I am someone that would like to watch a Harem Anime with 2 male leads that each gets their own harem company of girls from the main cast. For example, 1st male lead gets a company of 4 girls and 2nd male lead gets 2-3 girls etc.

This is really good. And yet another example how important Haruhi was (and still is) for the whole anime industry.
Did anyone notice that even the background music was similar (flyers scene)?
Now I really want to rewatch Haruhi.

Honestly I can't recall a anime in recent memory that had such a horrible episode for a anime that seem to have so much promise.

To start out everyone is just rambling. Shouting at each other about anime. That not remotely how highschoolers would have a conservation about something they love. It so cringe. Everything is so tense and dramatic over a damn anime club. The dramatic end just put everything thing over the top. Just so annoying in general.

I do like the main character so ill probably watch for a couple more episodes but on this track this anime is going to be worse then even Gamers!.

Really love the op for this show. DJ Neko ftw.

Really fun episode too, I liked how there was an actual intelligent conversation about anime as well. I mean yeah it got heated but what conversation about LN vs Anime doesn't get heated! They nailed the situation down perfectly.

Definitely don't trust this Nakano dude, DJ Neko was drowning when he entered the room...something's Fishy...

I guess the student council president was in the middle when those girls busted in...if so...damn she was cute!

But not as cute as Kouenji!

Well that was fast... Six members already to form the Anime club! but suddenly a shutdown notice came-up on their very first day!
Minoa should be their moderator in case their club grows big, she's necessary for handling members who bash each other and her job is to calm them down! lolz.

I'm surprised this is somewhat under the radar. It's actually quite a good comedy, with I'd say a very accurate portrayal of different anime fans.
I'm not a lolicon, you're just projecting your tendency to lewd 2D characters.

If your favourite character is Tsutsukakushi Tsukiko, you are my soul mate.

The problem here is most of the recent references seem *really* forced, like they have a quota to get across 60 references in 20 minutes or your money back. I mean, Old Game? Really? And your favorite character is Yun to boot? There's so many things wrong with that.

The older the references were, the better they came across - like the classic anime definition being "one where the hero uses a mass produced model" - that was great.

Obviously the highlight of the episode was lucky star inspired dancing butler, I laughed so hard and then I laughed even harder when I recognized it. That doesn't even have to be a reference to be hilarious.

I certainly don't lurk on 4chan but I been part of my fair share of anime clubs and dedicated a decade of my life going to cons. I do understand it mostly anecdotal. But in real life you just don't talk to people like that.

Most conversations I have at anime cons are simply people talking about anime they love. It often very friendly and very little argument or confrontations.

I admit I am getting old now. It been 10 years since high school and 5 years since I stopped going to anime cons. So I can't speak for how community is of recent.

They corrupted many anime names for some reason. The show has to drop recent anime names since the characters seem to discuss recent anime. The references seems forced because the corrupted names are lame. If it's creative, I believe it doesn't feel forced.
Yun? I think it's Rin. But it seemed that their names are combined.

Pretty much a referance filled ep. The introduced characters are nothing new but have specialized authority on particular genre. Minoa provides a balance that will keep afloat the club coz otakus are damn aggressive of their favs and waifus (but here husbandos). The StuCo are gonna be the first hurdle they will be crossing probably.

Their original material vs. anime-only discussion - basicaly MAL.

The Haruhi reference was nice and they even used similiar music in that scene but I don't think the references alone cannot save this anime.
The cat is annoying at best and I fear this would turn into crazy mahou shoujo or something.

can't hand out fliers without wearing a bunny suit, it's in Haruhi's commandments.

even the bgm sounded like haruhi.

Let's see Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu, Bungo Stray, Dogs Suzumiya (again), Sword Art Online, Re Zero, New Game!!, Love Live
Is sad that I don't know all the titles T.T

As I though the series takes place in the spring of 2016

I love that they use different references that are not animes 10/10 for me so far.
BTW I am in the Original comes first team and Emilia team <3
I like to post in manga forum when I feel it is worth it, so people will think. "Shit, is her again" or something.

People asked me where I read certain thing but the rules say no telling where did you read so maybe I am too boring for not saying? Or salty because you didn't check my profile that says don't ask because I hate people to ghost me after that. I love learning languages so maybe I did not read the manga in English.

This anime sure likes Haruhi. There have been a lot of Haruhi references in these first 2 episodes, to the point of it starting to feel like they are ripping it off. Hell, even how the Oujo girl got the idea to start her own club if there isn't one, was pretty similar to how it happens in The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya.

The altered names of anime were pretty funny, though. Especially Sold Out Offline.

And as an anime only watcher who couldn't care less about the source materials, I'm with Kamiigusa on the whole source vs anime debate.

Omg, this anime is so funny XD The nightmare and bunny outfits! Not to mention we got all the club members already - I was expecting it to take a little longer, but seems like we get introduced to everyone already and next episode is gonna be a conflict about the club. Hearing them talk about anime is pretty funny, I can definitely see people who have their opinions on originals and stuff. Plus what's a "classic"? Running EDs, main character dying, barfing, baseball episode ... XD I've gotta say the senpais seem pretty cool too, although the girls' uniform looks MUCH better than the boys' one IMO. The purple highlights on the blazer don't look that good :(

OP is super catchy, its addictive.

Arisu should've been the president. I mean her and Minoa are the ones who started the club. The recruiting new members while wearing bunny suits is a reminisce of Haruhi Suzumiya. Surprisingly, all the members have joined in just one episode.

I actually lost it when they used Re:Zero reference with a not-so-subtle reference to Petelgeuse.

Anyway, this anime is quite interesting so far, I guess. Though I'm not sure what the cat's purpose is yet.
