| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- And this is how they meet: http://i.imgur.com/c0mWeyA.png I also love this OP song. So catchy~ The artwork is decent as I expected. PA Works sure has its style especially with the waters around as the background in general as the setting. I'm not sure how I feel about Manaka so far though. She's a bit too prone to crying. But anyways, looking forward to more. This is the first 2-core PA Works series I've seen since Hanasaku Iroha. I also found the ending to be beautiful. |

| Dat fishknee. |
 |
| I guess this will be one of the best anime of this season ^^ I love the under sea scenery very much ^^ |
 |
| Okay I guess. I'll give it another two episode. I can't see myself watching this. I do want to know are they half human and fish or what? |
 |
| High standard of sakuga from P.A.Works.. The large watery eyes of the characters and the blue color theme is a refreshing change from the usual PA Works anime. Okada Mari is the series composition so I'd expect some drama somewhere down the road... Don't forget this is going to be 2-cour... |
| 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. |
| This 1st episode seem more interesting than the other two came out yesterday |
| Wow, I really enjoyed this first episode. Nice animation and OST in my opinion. And I like the characters so far. Definitely liking this series. Can't wait for next week. |

 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
| Oh, I thought it was just a love triangle, but it's a love polygon now, I have to stay strong! Interesting setting! :D And the ED is very pleasant to my ears! |

| I am loving all the Kana Hanazawa this season. Her voice is : ) Aside from that. Good first episode with a nice long 25 to go. Love the environment. Expected great animation from PA Works. |

| It's gotten to the point where existence itself has become nothing but a meme; an existence that I want nothing to do with anymore. |
| I have to say I got impressed. This anime has beautiful scenery and atmosphere, the animation is great. The ED and OP were nice, nothing too impressive. It seems this will focus on romance quite a bit, wasn't expecting that. I will enjoy this one. It has potential. |
neji3994 said: if you add love chain/polygon to that, then this is basically Ano Natsu de Matteru with different characters and setting..Good one so far and I'll keep watching it because hey it's from PA Works... Ray singing OP Yanagi Nagi singing ED WIN |
| Not bad, the concept was already interesting enough, but I'm somewhat excited to see the "conflict" between the two cultures play out. I'm glad there's actual reason for the sea dwellers to dislike the land dwellers, it doesn't seem too forced(Hikari vs douchey kids in class gave it a somewhat realistic angle and made him a bit more likable) but the girls in class treating Manaka like some pet gerbil was a bit too much, as was the graffiti gum. Good art, good OST, fairly likable characters, just hope the drama doesn't get to be tooo much over 2 cours. Derpzbow said: Elite60 said: Dat fishknee. I'd love to penetrate dat fishknee.

| The MC is annoying as fuck but I'll give this show a chance. |

| Interesting setting. Kinda reminds me of Nerawareta Gakuen in certain ways. This could definitely be chock full of feels. And Hanakana. Hana fucking Kana. |
 |
| Very interesting setting. I was surprised at first why there is fish floating around in the 1st scene then it hit me that they are sea dwellers. The discrimination though. Tsk tsk. But good thing this is 2 cour. Just hope it will not get boring. So far, it is really good. |
| I'm really liking this. The concept is intriguing to me. The artstyle is great. I especially love the eye designs for the underwater characters. They all have aqua colored eyes and eyelashes. It's going to be 26 episodes too, so much could happen. |
 |
| Great episode, that was the best start so far Manaka looks like Menma in many ways The art is beautiful and the drama and setting has potential Looks like I've found my priority this season |
| Wow, visual porn! I'm liking the story so far! looking forward to the next episode!! |

Crackin355 said: That was nice and calming. Looked great too. I'll keep watching this for now. But uh, let me get this straight; Purple-Hair Girl --<3--> Short-Temper Guy --<3--> Fishknee Girl --<3--> Cool Guy They have 20+ episodes to sort this out so I'll be patient. But what's the deal with the other guy? You'd think he'd go after Purple Hair Girl but no. Maybe he is gay. Their interaction kinda made me think that. |
|
| The characters remind me a lot of Anoha. Was rather stunning to watch, was in a "WTF am I watching" state for a few mins at the start when you see fish swimming around. Can already see the love triangles forming and all the cliches that are going to happen but i guess id still watch it for the art. |
| A good P.A Works anime? Tell me it isn't so! |
| wow the female lead is so annoying cause she is way too bashful the male lead should learn to stop being a tsundere and accept the cultures. but to be honest, the girlis just way too annoying. you are embarassed that your knee farted so you go to the mountains where your skin will dry and heck who knows what will happen? I wish she just wasn't found and could feel the consequence of her stupidity |
 |
| the female lead was kawaii until she took a fish to the knee. eh? eh? Anyone? :( |
| This is a very beautiful show, the art is just magnificent. So far, I'm getting some Ano Natsu vibes in regards to the characters' feelings, I hope this doesn't turn out to love circle. After that, this was an alright first episode, seeing that this is 2-cour, I'm not so sure on how this will go yet. |
 |
| been re-watching animes recently with heavy drama involving love triangles, therefore this was just painful to watch since Im pretty sure a love triangle is going to form. Why is it so intriguing to watch shows like these even though they hurt to watch?!! :[ |
| Meh. Another generic P.A. Works anime. Guess I will have to give up on this as well and watch all the episodes just like I did for their other shows. -_- |
| Stay Home and Wash Your Hands. Protect Yourself. Protect Your Loved Ones. Protect Your Community and Help Defeat Coronavirus. |
| http://i.imgur.com/yf3MWdw.png The show just started and they are already giving me some delicious shouta service. The whole under city setting is cool, and the scenery is absolutely amazing. http://i.imgur.com/RkjL7JO.png Racist lolis? Now I've seen everything. |

bla bla bla The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.Niko-kun said: On MAL, everyone who has used the lame rating system becomes a critic and an intellectual by default, haven't you heard? |
| Amazing visuals and very a good soundtrack. So far (out of like the 4 shows I've watched) this is definitely my favorite fall show. |
| So beautiful.... :3 But that fish on Manaka's knee actually grossed me out lol. -shivers- |

| Man, that guy's douche level is comparable to Kirino's bitch level in season 1. Oh well, regardless of where the plot goes, I'll watch it for the animation. neontaster said: But what's the deal with the other guy? You'd think he'd go after Purple Hair Girl but no. Maybe he is gay. Their interaction kinda made me think that. Could well be the case. |
| Who don't know love Hanazawa Kana? Yes I'm also very impressed and it's beautiful. I'm a bit curious how this fish human, but from a bit what Hikari said he said that everyone live first on sea. I hear about that theory before but don't know if it's actually true. Yes it's seem like it will be focus on romance, Hikari is all overprotected I actually got the feeling of Manami will like the guy on surface. |
Nothing ventured, nothing gained (Girls und Panzer der Film ) / from Nishizumi Miho |
| Seems pretty interesting, with all the stuff about people originally being from the sea. The art is really pretty, too. |
| wow gay |
| This is an okay start of the season, though my issue is that it could use a bit of humor into it and some characters were not that bright especially the MC. Well I'll get used to it when I progress through. On the positive side, The animation, the character visuals, the art of the settings, the OP and ED, and the ost were captivating. But kind of a weird concept when they are living in the sea and attending school in the lands side. I can't wait to see more. |
| I'm not very fond of either of the two main characters, especially Manaka. One episode in and she already irritates the hell out of me. However the premise is interesting so I'll stick with it and see where it goes. |
| lol i thought that guy was a girl in the mal picture.... |
| Can't believe. This is a HanaKana show so I'll definitely watch it, but, that was very unexpected. I'm a sucker for romance. |

| Oh the romantic drama. OOOOH THE DRAMA. I can smell it...oh man this is gonna be an emotional rollercoaster for die hard romance fans like me. Ah..I dont like the new guy. |
