For a first episode of the Anime this was quite impressive tbh, nice action not to much centred around ecchi and has a quite decent concept. OP & ED where a bit more on the ecchi side but where nice either way. I wonder how the whole Anime goes!

Lets see what the story has to offer us!

I like the OP.
The art looks fuckin old for a 2008 show.
WHAT, imouto? Jeez, MC looks like a kid. I'd say it's his older sister.
Pretty funny, 3,5/5

So the infamous To LOVE-Ru, I finally started it. And I have to say the first episode was very enojoyable, funny and fanservicey. The characters are likable so far :)

^Exactly what I thought!

That aside, I'm not too much of a critic when it comes to an anime series. To-LOVE-Ru is no exception. It's a widely known series, so I decided to go ahead and watch it.

I loved the outlandish humor of the episode. I mean, trampled over by an elephant? lol. Rito's facial expressions were priceless, too. And we all know there were a lot of those when Lala showed up.

Fan service was awesome. If you like fan service, there's no doubt you would have not liked this.

I'm eager to see what happens in the following episodes. Definitely a good series for me. That humor style is one I can truly resonate with.

I also see a strong parallel between this and Girls Bravo
; but like I say, I don't drop an anime because of its archetype. Every anime has its own story to tell, even if it is generic (harems are good examples).

Not sure if this belongs here but seeing as how i only watched this episode so far i will post it here...

after doing tons of searching i was looking for the uncensored version of this show but none of them were actually uncensored since they had bright lights covering the areas.

my question is, where can i find this uncensored or is this as uncensored as it gets? example of this would be when the girl first appears in the bathtub with the MC, she is naked but a white streak covers the nips and stuff....

i have the rest of the series and according to comments and research they are uncensored but i can't test myself since they are not fully downloaded yet cause i been putting them on hold trying to get season 1 uncensored. >.<

sorry if this is out of place.

Didn't really like the animation style used for the opening, kind of reminded me of Cowboy Bebop.

The green haired guys armour seems a bit odd after seeing how Lala dresses and how they are meant to be from a civilisation much more technologically advanced than ours.

Decent first ep, had to use torrents (Yabai subs) to watch the uncensored version, but even then a lot of the mist was still there in the bath scene.

I liked the blue haired girl. Totally slaps Rito in the locker scene lol

Lala sure is cute, show is similar to Rosario but I don't mind. I got curious about why lots of people like this show so I decided to give it a try.

That trash can scene lol.
I think her name is Mikan, her facial expression as she kicked the trash can down xD

No, unnamed girl, Haruna isn't particularly nice. You're just a judgemental and prejudging bitch.

I like, that he mustered the courage to confess his feelings. Too bad, that he accidentally confessed to Lala.

The scene with her giant vacuum cleaner was hilarious. When Zastin said "It's one of her inventions" he most likely thought "we are so fucked".

Good first episode.

Not bad. I wasn't particularly into it, but I think it may have potential. I'll give it the traditional 3 episodes before deciding if I'll continue with it.

Sadly , yes.He has no redeeming qualities whatsoever and to be honest with you, I'm watching it out of guilty pleasure and nothing more nothing less than that.

I see...

Ahh, back with the real fan-service, feels like it´s been a long time now. Odd censoring though, you saw through the mist in the bathroom, no details, but definitely visable like the nipples like some sort of half-censoring. Her private area was like a barbie doll though hmm... Just strange censoring. One have seen various magical dress up sequences... But being pleasured while transforming is a new to me. Must be a favorite thing of hers 1-2 times a day ;P

I take it though. Better then seeing nothing at all.

I'm guessing this is going to be plot light, which is fine as long as they stay committed to the comedy. For me different shows work at different times. In the evenings after work I don't really want to use my brain anymore, and this one seems like an enjoyable evening series rather than keeping for weekends or time off

Fanservice filled OP, ED, and sprinkled throughout the episode. A main character who seems like an indecisive wimp but has a good heart that makes him do the right thing and put himself in the line of danger when it's for someone else's sake(maybe only for girls though). A love interest he can't confess to but otherwise has a crush on him(maybe secret childhood friends or maybe just an instance as small as Rito's was when it came to falling for her). And a runaway, stubborn, but otherwise happy go lucky alien who doesn't want no arranged marriage and instead has chosen to marry Rito based on a misunderstanding(also totally brazen with no sense of embarrassment). I wonder if it will get much deeper than this outside of adding more girls to lewd on. I must commend the OP and ED for being as perverse as they were, I haven't seen anything on their level before.

It worked to set up the plot but if the selling point of this series is actually the fanservice I don't understand why it had to go so elaborate. I'm not a fanservice or harem guy but I support the likes of KissxSis for at least selling itself on what it is, I'm getting mixed vibes here. Maybe the story is actually awesome and I just haven't given it enough credit though.

I don't know if the Harem mc dumbass trope is just not my thing anymore or what but I find I can't stand this guy and it's episode 1. Some dork that lucks into an engagement with a goddess of a female alien and wants to grab her tits so he can "have a happy life" with a girl he has never dated or really doesn't know if she even likes him. Idk. I used to live dxd but when I rewatched it the other week it was hard to sit through issei stupidty
