Tsundere and comedy. Not too much fan service. All right! I like it...

Seems really average, for some reason I didn't find it too funny enough to lol.
The narrator, while I don't mind her voice as Kuroko, I don't like it being a narrator.

Love her kitty gloves ^^ Meow~

I say first episode is ok.

First episodes of anime usually don't deliver very quickly or grab TOO much interest too quickly, but this one really delivered a good job of grabbing your interest.

I also don't care for the narrator, personally it's a little irritating but first thing I noticed was she and ringo looked like Taiga & Minori, and actually kind of had the same relationship they had.

That was really lame. I know male protagonists in shounen rom/coms are supposed to be cowardly, but isn't this taking it a little too far?

Oh well, Kyouko makes me laugh and I really like J.C. Staff, so I'll give it a chance.

EDIT: Kuroko, why the hell did I say Kyouko....

I'm sorry but after that towel dropping scene I just couldn't be tempted to watch anymore of the first episode, I saw it coming from miles away that the tsundere was obviously going to hit that boku... and I feel as though i've seen alot of this anime's scenes in other slice of life before.

It was kinda silly but funny and entertaining. Plus the ending scene was epic. Let's see the second one.

Well that was little weird but enjoyable. Probly there will be a next tsundere girl to like :P And last scene was EPIC xD
The only thing that irritated me was the narrator, I don't wanna hear stupid voice which is saying everything to me.
I hope it was only for 1st ep...

After that scene the show got a lot better. I felt like this was going to be a horrible show up to that scene too with the pointed out service shots. However my opinion flipped completely by the end of the show. I was interested to hear Kuroko's voice as the narrator, and at first was puzzled. Thankfully i don't hate her voice so i found her interjections interesting. I seriously can't remember the last time i heard a narrator for an anime.
I'll take the male lead having Scopophobia; i mean it hasn't been done before at least. I'll have to see the rest of the season but i laughed at the cycling scene as well as finding the owner.

Pretty average start. Had a couple laughs here and there, but in general, nothing impressive. Ringo should be a fun character to watch, but Ryouko is just plain, as well as everyone else.

J.C. Staff pulled a nice work there or at least it seems so far
Ryouko and Ringo are quite cute and the gags and jokes were funny, especially at the end of the episode (Kick me! More! xD)
I actually like Kuroko-s voice so I'm happy about the narrator xP

Exceeded my expectations! Very good first episode..

The first time I saw Ryouko with the Neko-Neko Knuckles, I thought this will be a good anime.. Very interesting and funny episode, and the introduction of the plot and setting is done nicely.. lol Kuroko's narration made me laugh most of the time, just hearing that maniac of a voice gives me giggles already from the get go.. >_<

Still this is just the first episode, hope it keeps up this pace 'cause this is one of the anime this season that I have a lot of expectations with, and I really hope it delivers.. =)

So im about 2 min and 10 seconds in and i cant help but laugh at the fact that both taiga and this girl both have the same attituede and.... small breasts.

P.S this show was recommended to me because i watched Toradora (hopes he can find more good tsunadere shows)

First thought I had about this anime:
(Spoiler for image)


That aside, despite what everyone said I liked the narrator and those remarks about flat-chested fanservice since it was exactly what I was thinking about.

And Ookami is indeed MANLY, I wonder why she was so annoyed at what the Araragi looking guy said about her, since she does address herself with "ore".

It was an enjoyable episode, similarities with other J.C Staff characters apart, it had some genuinely funny moments, even though the overall direction the episode was taking was somewhat predictable.

only seen the first half,gonna comment now and edit when i've seen the rest of it. Liking it so far.
So far not really getting the major complaints people have with this.

Like why people are calling this generic. :| is it because of the characters? (which are SUPPOSED to be based on stereotypes, even the trailer called Ookami a "new type of tsundere") Because I don't think i've ever seen an anime quite like this.

Also Ryouko looks next to nothing like Taiga. Similar(ish) hair and a flat chest, so what.

I like the male lead BECAUSE he's pathetic. He's supposed to be. The narration even lampshades it. But unlike every other pathetic male harem lead he actually has a reason for it.And because of that reason, I feel sorry for him. He's still a desperate stalker, but that amuses me more than anything. xD

other than all that, the Prince of Tennis reference was amusing. I get a kick out of stuff like that.

Thank god Ookami isn't some high pitched loli tsundere voiced by KugiRie. All we have to do now is get rid of the genki high pitched loli and all will be well.

i was thinking the exact same thing... i would have dropped it instantly if she was the VA...

on a sidenote, why cant female main characters have boobs anymore? watching fairy tail made me realise it was ages since i saw a main character with a good pair of jugs....

I just got done watching the first episode, and I can tell already that this is going to be series that I'll adore. I love fairy tales, and Ookami-san and Ringo are very interesting female characters that I can't wait to see develop more overtime.

Ryoshi was also very interesting, and his phobia is very funny. I wonder if Ookami or any of the other Otogi Bank member will try to help him with it over time.

And even though some people did not enjoy the narration, I found it to be very appropriate for the type of story this will be. After all, what good fairy tale doesn't have a narrator?

I'm also really interested in seeing how Ookami's relationship with Ryoshi is going to develop.




I'm looking forward to more from this series, and even more fairy tale references as it progresses, (and hoping for a Little Mermaid esque episode!)

Also, did anyone else like how the book was called, "Ookam-san and her 7 companions?"

She's not really tsundere. That implies she actually likes the male lead, which is not the case. He is genuinely unlikeable.

ROFL. Truer words were never spoken in this thread.

But he was the one who threw that rock at the beginning, right? So when she said he hadn't helped her, he actually had...

This was kinda generic, but then again, I had a lot of fun. It's definitely something I'll stick around for but for how long is left up to chance. The narrator is kind of annoying too. Cranium kick was hilarious as hell though, cause I didn't see it coming at all.

Having just finished Bakemonogatari, I can't help but see Araragi in the main guy

Also,

^^I love you instantly forever.

Wow, echoing the generic sentiments here. I don't see anything original or new in the start of this, or rather, nothing that really compels me to keep watching. I will though, out of habit or something, I guess. But it's not very funny at all...
