----------------------------------------
This is full of win! One of my immediate favorite picks this Winter season.

Pretty rough background Kakeru and Najimi had there. Also Melon is really moe tsundere. <3
Yurika is soooo yuri. DO WANT.

Kakeru's perversion makes me laugh. It's probably the only reason I'm sticking with this. Well... Mamiko Noto will be in it later, so that's another reason too.

This show is so ridiculous, it's funny. The baseball scene made me Lol hard.

Najimi is amazing too, naughty little girl.


Edit: A nice little summary so far, stolen from 4chan (I was bored), but I thought there's some truth in these so I figured I'd throw it up.

yeah that look on Najimi's face is win. So the big pervert was sort of a big hero. Again him being a big pervert is more entertaining then the typical falling down and nose bleeding. I'm liking the character even if the story is a bit out there.

Oh yeah, to be fair, Najimi is pretty awesome. Actually, the secondary characters are the best so far I believe. Kakeru is rather annoying, and Melon is well, Melon. We'll see where she goes. And then of course, you've got Hidehiko who just plain creeps me out, though he does have his humorous moments.

Kakeru's perversion makes this show, highlight of this episode for me was him tossing his clothes at the girls when they talked about him randomly stripping.

Is it just me or sometimes the Hero and Heroines eyes and faces sometimes seems off? The heroines eyes sometimes looks really bad (out of place and weird looking) and the heroes face looks weird and disproportionate. Sometimes the animation get's really bad? is that because of the video quality or the actually show? The animation looks really poor.
---
What's weird was that episode 1 quality seemed OK... so I guess it is the video itself? FPS kinda lower than EP1... anyone experiencing this with Coal Guys subs? Is it me or is the art getting worse? (I think it has something to do w/ the video)... I'm only getting a FPS of 22... while Episode 1 had 28... maybe that's it... yeah... it must be the video... there's no way the animation could be that bad that bad... felt like I was watching a really old show... Yeah... episode 1 had good a good animation so yeah... it's the ... video... (I'm talking to myself). I still will give this show more chances because I think it has some potential to be a decent show... I think it's kinda funny... Story is starting falter even more... a war between steel and aluminum cans?... Usually I laugh at Ecchi stuff but that guy is kind of too disgusting... lol that blue haired girl is funny though haha.

Wow this had some fail animation but horrible dialogue makes me lolz. Kakeru is kinda annoying and very much creepy and Melon just acts like a ditz. How does an eight grader overpower three people with a gun?

Good episode.We get to know about Kakeru past and how he saved Najimi.

EDIT: there's nothing wrong with the animation it's just average.

That art style totally brings back memories of Umisho... I liked the art style by the way.

That government yaoi dude creeps me out, but not that kind of creepy because it's hilarious when he tease Kakeru. Kakeru is probably the funniest character by Fukuyama Jun yet.

Animation is ok, I like this kind.
Dialogues are hardcore in some parts, Kakeru behaves like total pervert, but it's only a pose. What is interesting, is the fact that he cares for Melon from the start, I like it. In most anime in similar taste main protagonist starts to care almost till the end of a story. Next ep we will probably have anonther akikan girl, so we will be blessed with perfect harem situation :)
No SD ending, I hope ;)

That was sure entertaining.. in a very retarded way. The animation quality is below average and Melon pretty much fails as a tsundere, but it was better than ep1. Oh, and the gayguy reminds me of the perverted angel from Macademi Wasshoi

I'm really shocked by all the R+ stuff they say..for a minute I thought the subs were trolled.. or maybe its just the coalguys' doing

Seems we are getting a pretty good dosage of rom/coms this season and they all look promising. As for this episode, the male is starting to seem more and more similar to the lead of inukami!(same VA too). Decently funny so I gave the ep a 4/5.

Holly friggin crap! What the hell is wrong with animation? It was painful to watch those all deformed characters. Probably the worst graphic failure I've ever seen. Why they even broadcast it looking like that? And damn, what the hell is wrong with this fagot. Just to much crap for one episode.

I have to agree. I didn't get any enjoyment from this episode despite trying to keep an open mind.

My slated first drop of the new season as well.

lol Yeah I liked this episode, and I like the general enjoyment of this series as well. I think the characters are playing a major part in that. I don't know about you but I liked the sound. The opening theme and closing theme are good, and they have brief glimpses of some alright background music.. they just used them very sparingly in episode two. I noticed them a lot more in episode one.

It was a little overly perverted though, even for an anime :| LOL. I don't think it was appropriate for a younger audience. Coalguys are not trolling this sub, they disproved that little theory themselves. They actually do say "tfing" and "masturbating"..

i'm still suprised im enjoying this, guess its fun tho :P it has a really interesting idea and the backstory was really different. espcially for a series like this. It looks like it may even end up having a progressing plot with the aluminum and steel can thing. we will see.

So I wasn't the only one who caught that, eh? I had already known that the production qualities across the board(animation, music etc.) were pretty much garbage, but reading that just made me nitpick that much further. Oh well.
