THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
That was a pretty relaxing watch, Tanaka being the guy that sleeps around during day time. I've read the manga before and I think the anime captured the mood pretty well.

Oota also has some nice chemistry with Tanaka on-screen.

It was so good, and relaxing, and good....
Tanaka is basically my personification.

Oota is such a good person.

Lol, Tanaka really is listless. Tanaka wearing those shuttlecocks XD
Double listlessness must be relaxing...

Surprised to see it get a 23 minute slot. Not complaining though.
Tanaka is voiced by the same guy that voiced Kuroko whilst Ohta is done by Hyuuga.

This gives me Non Non Biyori vibes which is exactly what I wanted this to do. I'm a big fan of this anime already after just the first episode. My one gripe I have is I don't like how some of the characters have the cliche anime hair. It feels really out of place in an anime like this. I look forward to hearing that OP next week though since it's now one of my favorites of the season.

Seems like i've found my gem this season.

Really relaxing atmosphere, animation was soothing and i liked the OP.

To say the least, Tanaka is a relatable dude and so are his policies.

That was so hilarious lol...It's like the opposite of Sakamoto. This guy's so frail at everything and his laziness is Top-tier.

He got REKT by French Bread and wanting to co-exist with pain and numbness from wrong sleeping poses XD

Ohta is a top-tier bro too. The way he keeps caring for Tanaka and carrying him in that hilarious way is too much lol

Dat Dark toned Piano session was funny too.

It's not easy to find series this relaxing and funny at the same time. Tanaka is quite the specimen.

That was so relaxing to watch. The opening minutes especially. Ohta and Tanaka(those shuttlecock ears!) are cute and funny. The next episode seems like it's gonna have that noisy girl so hopefully it won't ruin the mood.

Well, I don't think I'm ever likely to see such a lazy protagonist as Tanaka ever again. Not that I'm complaining though, as this was a surprisingly good first episode. I'm already liking the chill atmosphere and the chemistry between Tanaka and Ohta, and seeing how other characters get involved should be pretty fun.

ED's pretty good, but I absolutely love that OP.

Tanaka is such a cool dude. Not to mention relateable.

The girl at the end admires Tanaka for his listlessness. Possible ship? :3

Finally I found my anime self! hahah, idk but we do share a good number of similarities.

I love the atmosphere! The OP is relaxing, too! And the girl who is possible love interest (?) looks really cute, too

-Cracks knuckle- time to sleep. lmao

This guy, I love already. He's too cute, damn. The way he let of his racket, I lost it.

Well then, Ohta x Tanaka -ahem- lemme correct. Tanaka x Ohta has potential. Both of them aren't the most straight people on the planet anyway. Still gonna wait till the girl appears to see what kinda chemistry she has with Tanaka. Seems like a one-sided love from what I saw so far.
10/10 already, I love this a lot.

I can already tell that this series is going to be the hidden gem of the season, and most people would just overlook it due to other series this season. It's not common to come across a relaxing anime like Tanaka-kun, so this is a keeper :P

This was such a relaxing watch for me to be honest.
I laughed at the moment when Tanaka was playing the piano and then HE CHANGED THE FUCKING TONE OF THE SONG. XD

I DIED. Everyone got scarred after that.

We all know that Tanaka and Ohta have a bromance going. It's definitely refreshing to see such a lazy main character. But those references to Detective Conan and One Piece were really funny. Detective Coban and Two Peak. This is such a relaxing show...

This type of awkward humor always gets me. Somebody says something unexpected and the music cuts away to silence as they stare at each other in disbelief, played straight.

I'm just concerned the tone is gonna change drastically. Once we build up the harem with a bunch of loudmouth energetic girls I fear this will turn into what we've all seen a million times, where jokes rely on overreaction and being loud/an exaggerated anime-face as a punchline.

I'll be honest.

I didn't really like it too much. I can deal with SoL, in fact I really enjoy most of them but it just felt like this guy was just outright lazy where his friend was simply an enabler.

I'll give it another couple of episodes in the hope that the supporting cast can save it but I'm not a fan of the main duo.
