| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ----------------------------------------  She is even more perfect then I imagined! Dat Hentai-moe DAT CHEST Based Taku on the OST "GATCHAMAAAAAAN" I like how she holds onto Utsutsu like she is a toy she found. Anime of the season for me. |

| I'm so excited for this! I'm in love with the op. |

Well, that was unique. One of the girls seems to have a fascination of planners. One of the scenes involving her ave me some GC vibes.. Mecha designs looks decent I guess. Pretty cool moves. The OP song is pretty good and I'll remember it for this season :3 GATCHAMANNNNNNNNNNNNNNN |

| Hajime is so fucking cute jesus christ. I really love the OST, Iwasaki does it again. "Gatchamaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan", great. |

 Out of context it looks like O.D. just sold Utsutsu to Hajime here. "DEAL" EDIT: HS is out! |

| Hajime is so infectious, the energy she brings is just too much for me OD and Joe seem like cool characters GATCHA!!!! There were some off kilter shots but nothing too major, probably ran out of time to do that last coat of polish. I can definitely see Nakamura's influence in the art style which has a lot of similarities with Tsuritama. |

The color scheme and style used is quite interesting, especially when it comes to the hair: |
| So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old? I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them? I wonder how long people would put up with this. As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series. |
Did anyone else bust out laughing at this scene? When I heard the way he screamed I completely lost it. Loved the opening and the soundtrack. Hajime is just completely adorable. So far so good, definitely looking forward to next week. |

| That was interesting, the whole concept of this show really is good :O Haven't watched any of the prior TV series, but i ain't lost yet :p Hajime's installed 'Gatcha' into my brain >_< VioLink said: ^Handled like a Gatcha 8) |
| This is amazingly good for a first episode i love the main protagonist she so full of energy |
 |
| Hajime is the best person ever I absolutely LOVED this episode. Completely lived up to my expectations. I'm excited for the next one. |
| At first I didn't like the character designs, but I guess i can adapt to the art style since this first episode was pretty cool. Love how the main character just accepts everything that's happening and is like, "alright cool". I wonder what the main story line is going to be and hope that it is not going to be a "monster of the week" type of deal. |
| was me or 3D animation scene was kinda uneven?

| Wow Hajime is beyond annoying, nothing but a big boobed airhead it would seem. She needs a dose of reality with a serious beat down. Well, other than her, the episode wasn't too bad. Still undecided if I like the art, maybe it will grow on me. |
| Certainly one of the most ditsy-est MC's I've seen in a while. They explained a lot of the background nicely but there's still a lot of mystery. The art is also rather different from what I'm used to so we'll see how that goes. Seems interesting enough and I love the seiyuu cast. I hope it doesn't stay all action though. |
| -Nothing can stay unchanged. Even so, can you still keep on loving this place? -Be still my soul; when change and tears are past, all safe and blessed we shall meet at last. |

| Oh man that was great. Enjoyed every second of it. That OST was fantastic and I really like the MC, I mean I could watch Hajime for hours and never get bored. Favourite 1st episode this season. I think I'm going to love this anime. |

| I have no idea what she is doing but it is so entertaining. |
 |
| the show I was waiting for the most this season.. and it didn't disappoint. Great OST Insanely beautiful animation Interesting plot (not familiar with the OG) 8/10 |
 |
| Was entertaining as hell. Loving Hajime and her energetic personality. Utsu-tsu adorable too and no clothes~ OST reminds me of some Redline tracks. Would have preferred no CG but it's passable. |

Still undecided if I like the art, maybe it will grow on me. True... Hate these overenthusiastic main characters. No charm at all... even this anime is dissappointing. What a crappy season. I will rate 6/10 for now and see what happens. |

| So, Hajime is basically Shoko in overdrive mode, right? I can dig it. |
|
| hajime is funny but super annoying,, might drop this after 3-5 ep... dont like 'power ranger atmosphere' theme.. PS. another scissor fetish.. cant they make it an eraser or pencil sharpener at least? :D |

| Thats hell of a weird anime |
 |
| too many annoying & obnoxious characters. 2/5 dropped. |
| Interesting first ep. Rikka voicing MC = win Also good to see Aya voicing a character that has more of a recurring role rather than background ( Except for Lucy obviously ). I wish she'd get more roles these days. I love her voice. |
 |
| Who else thoight about Konata Izumi when Paiman (Hirano Aya) started speak? |
| I really don't know what to think of this one. It certainly looks like a show to not take seriously but it's interesting at the same time. I didn't care for the opening but the ending song is nice. I found Hajime quite obnoxious and Utsu-tsu reminded me of Nanami a lot of times. I'll keep watching because I don't like leaving things unfinished but I already don't have any expectations for this Anime. |

| Loved it. Some of you guys are annoyed way too easily. |
 |
| Holy Shit, I love that soudntrack. And the characters. Really nice show. |
| I loved the main character. Definitely a refreshing break from all of the generic personalities I've been seeing recently. |

| Well that was unexpectedly good.Great OP, OST, animation and characters.Loving Hajime so much!. Can't wait to see more, GATCHAAAAA! |
 |
| Insant favorite! The art, characters, animation, music, it's all just perfect! First time I can actually appreciate CG since Tiger & Bunny. Can't get enough of Hajime :3 |
| Ah, that was really something. Now I can't stop hearing "Gatchaaamaaaaan!" Lol, more scissors. What's up with scissors lately? If nothing else, it kept me plenty entertained the whole time. |
 |
| That was awesome!!! |
 |
| This is so weird yet awesome. I love opening and design of mechs :D |
| Tips for the visuals and a go for now. Don't disappoint -_- |
