| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- This reminded me a little bit of Natsume. The OP song is nice and I think the story felt pretty straightforward. I kinda like Inaba so far but man, the place he moved too is weird. Hope this show will develop his character as he seems rather plain so far. I find some of his reactions to the new change in his life to be amusing. Animation is decent, nothing groundbreaking but I don't think it's bad either. It's an alright start so far imo. Akine seems like a cool girl. |

| This is a pleasant show to watch. Youkai and humans live together in an apartment and Inaba is thrown right into it. I already really like the female exorcist, she's also a nice character to look at. Inaba's backstory was well presented, nothing over the top. |
| There's nothing interesting at all in this episode. I understand this is a slice of life anime, so there's no story. But compare to other good slice of life animes, this is just bad. |
Benio_ said: There's nothing interesting at all in this episode. I understand this is a slice of life anime, so there's no story. But compare to other good slice of life animes, this is just bad. Cant help but agree. I just dont see myself watching this until the end cause this episode already put me to sleep. I rather pass on it now that drop it out of boredom in 2-3 weeks. |
| Looking forward to this very much so. It's a slow-burning supernatural / slice of life series with a focus on character interactions. |
 |
| This was a nice first episode. Inaba doesn't want to live with his uncle anymore and wanted to move into a dorm, but it burned down. He was surprised when he saw youkai in the apartment he's staying in. Akine is a nice character. Looking forward to see more. |
 |
| The MC already looks (manly and) intimidating for an underage spirit-related story. Reminds me with Doumeki and Ashiya of Mononokean. >_< I wonder if Eriko have Tsundere feeling for the MC. But for now, I guess he should focus with Akine since she might come in handy for dealing with some "naughty" resident. |

| The dormitory burned down. That's just bad luck. Inaba didn't freak out when he first saw the ghosts. The OP is nice. |
 |
| Akine is very likable and Reimei provides comedy relief. Decent epd, I'll keep watching to see how the MC adapts to being around other spirits and exorcism. The animation could be a bit better. |
| Pretty average opener but hopefully that's just character and setting introduction. Seems like it could be a relaxing yokai show like Natsume, although I doubt it will be as rich. No doubt, the fact that the MCs parents died will come into the story as some sort of plot point down the line. The OP and ED were both pretty bland. |
| I like that they were pretty faithful to the source material (I know it's been mentioned to be the novel for this adaption, but I feel like it's actually based on the manga instead?). The voice cast is great too, but the music was honestly really surprising. I didn't expect it to sound as good as it did. Amplifying certain dramatic scenes like Inaba going through the house or at the park. Visually they made it have a really 90s/early 00s anime feel which I think suits it, since it has some similarities to ghost based anime from then. I don't understand why Inaba looks different from his appearance in the manga though, the others look like they do there. And for those wondering, this is mostly a slower paced supernatural slice of life story and don't expect too much from the mystery genre... I'm honestly not sure why it's even listed as being a mystery. It has a more character explorative narrative than an enigmatic mystery feeling. The mystery part comes into play slightly later. The real focus is on the characters and how they either interact with each other or develop. Something similar to iyashikei (I don't know if Youkai Apartment counts as one though) series ala Flying Witch, Amanchu, Sweetness & Lightning and Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou. The OP is really spoilery for having certain characters in it. |

| I thought it was pretty good for a first episode. I like art style and music and am interested in seeing the rest of the cast. |
| Okay start, guy getting into a yokai apartment and freaks out a bit. |
 |
| It's not great, but it was definitely better than I was expecting. |
| A less funny Maison Ikkoku? With ghoooooooostssssss... Oh! Scary! |
| Ok start. I really hope it's gonna be nice cause I really like the manga ver. it's got a good development. So far i'm not imprest but too soon to say. |
| That score though. Man, tough crowd. |
| Episode 1 was really good! It has such an old school feel to it but is still able to keep with the current day vibe. I loved episode 1. Those birds had me crying. Really looking forward to the rest of this anime. |

| Finally. A good anime this season. Very rarely is an anime about human and youkai relationships bad. These type of shows are always right up my alley. Also helps that there's a cute girl voiced by Miyuki Sawashiro. That cheap rent and you only have to worry about youkai? I'd live there, personally. |
| Natsume's Home for Imaginary Friends |
| Forum sniper of MAL. Accuracy, efficiency. Beware the catgun. |
| He looks way too mature to be just graduating from middle school and entering highschool lol. But dam Akine is waifu material |
| The music doesn't really fit well, and the yokai designs seem really generic and uninteresting. Probably going to drop this. |
Moe is saving anime. |
| Will see, but a bit too juvenile for me. Was hoping for something with a bit more depth/complexity. I think the target of this is early teens. Oh wells... |
| Very nice and peaceful to watch.... but damn this boy is getting beat down by life Bless him |

| I really enjoyed this episode. Nice relaxing anime so far which is perfect for summer. I personally enjoy supernatural slice of life anime so as long as the characters are interesting. Phantasy_Starved said: Natsume's Home for Imaginary Friends Haha I get your Fosters reference. I love both those shows. When west meets east. I like it XD |
| that was really nice |
 |
| Enjoyable first episode. OP & ED song are decent. Art is not bad as well. The business school burning down is just bad luck. The Youkai apartment looks cool & weird. Yuushi doesn't seem to care too much. Another supporting role for Sawashiro, Miyuki. Akine is an Exorcist & sounds great. The voice cast for this show is great. Lot of familiar names. Looking forward to seeing more. |

| Natsume, Inu x boku, and mononoken vibe and I love it |
| Well okay I guess. Not bad. I'm gonna watch it, I like the silly characters. |
Sokah said: A less funny Maison Ikkoku? With ghoooooooostssssss... Oh! Scary! Ikr?! The interlude really gave off Maison Ikkoku vibes :') I enjoyed the first episode. And it seems interesting to see how it'll go. Also, the music has this nostalgic feel to it. Loved it. Also Miyuki and Akira as the cast <3 |

| Well that was a surprise when they said they just graduated from middle school but already looked old enough to be university students. (At least for anime looks and your usual char design.) Liked that they don't look too young. Nice main char and the other chars/Youkai are interesting so far. (There seem to be a lot in the opening/ending.) I'll continue to watch this. Might be a nice SoL without the usual annoying "cute girls doing nothing" shit but with a nice male lead and other interesting side characters (Youkai). Yeah score seems a bit low. I had expected that people liked this kind of show and it would be between 7.8 and 8.2. Considering that for example Knight's & Magic (which might get generic later) is even higher than 7.0 where I'd expect less (even though I liked it community usually likes such stuff less they only like the well-known fantasy where the source was super popular). |
| I don't think Abe is appropriate for Yuushi. I kinda feel that he's too energetic for Yuushi's character. |
| I really like slice of life shows, but err... I'm not sure about this one. Everything about this first episode felt pretty meh to be honest. I will give it a couple more episodes... |
