Cute, just cute, overall cute, extremely cute, did I say already it was cute?

It's strange but I really enjoyed this episode, the char design is not that detailed but cute so that makes it enjoyable to watch. 5/5 episode btw.

Hakuya too fucking passive, I hope he does something in the NEAR future.

Don't like the OP though.

I like this :) Kobeni is cute (is she kinda busty in comparison to her sister? not that I am complaining or somethin' :D), Benio is lewd and Mashiro embarassement and fear of her is just pure fun.

But I still don't know what to think of Hakuya, his personality is kinda nonexisent and his voice is... kinda weird? (in comparison with his look)

But nevertheless, I gonna stick with this title.

That Onee-san FTW .I liked her already .Pervert/siscon type xD

I don't know why but it looks like Kotoura-san.The main girls are similar for me.
I enjoyed it more than I expected .If this arrangement thing gets serious and makes me Doki Doki mode then I'll give a chance :)

ED was pretty good and cute .That's a good start for now.

kobeni and benio are pretty cute. she's more entertaining than the average male protagonist in most romantic comedies. she and her friend look a lot like akari and chitose from yuru yuri.

the guy is still weird, wish they gave him a normal teenage guy voice instead of that deep voice. we'll see how cool/useless he is later i guess.

Dat OP is full of awesomeness.


What OP? I thought there's only an ED in this episode.

This anime seems interesting so far with its humor.


That's actually the OP.


Ah, really? Then thank you for correcting me.

Pretty mediocre. The VAs for the guy and his sister are disastrous, seriously, couldn't the people in charge find someone who can actually deliver a line that at least distantly resembles something coming from a living human being? I know it's kind of the point of his characters, but there are actually talented VAs who can give good emotionless performances. And Mashiro is a pain in the ears, like a cat being castrated, so freaking high-pitched. Also, too much screaming for me in one episode.

I really like Benio though, will probably watch it for her alone. 2/5.

I can't believe it, but the imouto is the reason I'm dropping this anime. Mashiro's voice really hurt my ears. Everything else was fine up until she spoke. It's a shame, her character is kinda fun too.

Dat ED though. I'll definitely save this episode for the ED.

Hakuya's voice...it's rather painful hearing him speak. Sounds too old and deadpan but not in a way that fits his character. It shouldn't bother me so much, but it does.

Not sure what to think about Kobeni. First impression is...she's rather unremarkable in terms of personality. Hakuya is so passive it's kinda dull. And I'm not feeling any chemistry between them (well it's only one episode but there should be something there).
Mashiro's quite cute.

Benio made this episode fun :3
I am very fond of her type of character on the sidelines. They make for good comedy xD

I've actually rewatched the ep a few times already, surprisingly enough.
I feel like Hakuya can read Kobeni's mind.. when Hakuya is rubbing her head a second time. Maybe it's just me or smth.. Don't really know how I came up with that.

Same here. New names are always nice.

Hmm...for some reason I think something is wrong with Hakuya's right eye.

Kobeni said she lost the early years of her memory in that accident awhile back, but I'm thinking Hakuya was also there and took the brunt of it to protect her, resulting in his right eye being messed up.

Ah well, was just something I was thinking of when he hit that sign while walking, but time will reveal all. :D

An anime with only one guy and like 8 girls? And it's not a harem? OR ECCHI? Hell has frozen over.

In all seriousness, I really enjoyed this! Even if the setting and plotline is fairly cliche, I can't wait for next episode.
Anime fan since 2005. Well, it was more like a Cardcaptor Sakura fan. Shucks, that was all in the past. I've changed.

Surprisingly, most of the cast is pretty new actually

And I don't have a strong opinion on the brother either. I don't dislike him, but nothing's standing out too much though.

I wouldn't say that this was amazing, although I also wouldn't say that I won't think so by the end of the show. Either way, this seems like the best of this season's new anime that I've watched so far. Was rather fun, and the characters seemed interesting enough.

Definitely one of the more solid series this season personally.

Nothing outstanding but unless it drops the ball hard, I'mma be coming back every week.

When I saw the promo, I just knew that I would enjoy this series. The animation, the characters and the comedy was very entertaining! Especially the animation, because everything felt like it was in full motion! But I guess that's what you can expect from Doga Kobo (Yuru Yuri, Love lab). I can't wait for the next episode! ^^

This. That was really good, and it was cute. Hah that guy can say things like that casually, not bad, not bad at all. I do wish that the guy wouldn't be that submissive, may he develops later on.

Love it! I was smiling and laughing all the way through this first ep!

Love the art style and how everything has a white highlight to it. All the characters are great and very distinguished. The sense of comedy is very specific with the types of reactions and faces they make. It gives me a similar feel to Kiniro Mosaic in a way.

If the series continues to be as pleasant as this, I feel I'll be loving this show.

The loli's voice is so annoying. It's like nails on a chalkboard to my ears.

4/5

First episode enjoyable, not part so bubbly, but I did not expect anything different from Doga Kobo.
We'll see if it can overcome its predecessors, the first of its Love Lab to say nothing of Yuru Yuri! * _ *
Drawings, animations and wallpapers good, not great.
The plot does not show anything original, the story is not bad, but I was not convinced in full! ^ ^ "
We'll see with the next episodes as judge.
