Comedy...it is very subjective, whether or not you consider a show to be funny or not simply depends on you, I think that mindset sums up Haiyore! Nyaruko-san perfectly.
This show is about a young high school boy (I know, I know) named Mahiro Yasaka, he lives an ordinary life until one day he is attacked by a demon and saved by a young alien girl by the name of Nyarlko. Afterwards she confesses her love for him and well we get a stereotypical "hijinks ensues" plot for the rest of the show. The main focus is Mahiro fending off Nyarlko's constant advances (which as kind
...
of refreshing, it's usually the other way around) We get introduced to a few entertaining characters, Cthuko, a alien girl who is in love with Nyarlko and constantly tried to keep her apart from Mahiro, even threatening to burn him into ash at one point. Hastur, a trap who is in love with Mahiro and constantly vies for his affection.
The art and sound aren't necessarily bad, but they're not anything you'd remember all that much, doubt any of you are on the edge of your seats for the Nyarlko Original Soundtrack, one thing I will say is the opening is stupidly good, check it out on youtube if you have a chance, amazingly addictive.
The characters are the main selling point of the show, the interactions between all of the different characters and the situations they find themselves in are just priceless, but as I said before, this is purely subjective.
Enjoyment is either very high or very low depending on whether you fall into the niche of this particular show. It's moe, It's ecchi, it's comedy, and it's satire, if these don't appeal to you then you simply will not like this show.
Overall I give this show an 8 out of 10. It's a hilarious show with a nice cast of characters that interact with each other in hilarious ways, it might not be for you, the plot might put you off, but give it the old 3 episode rule and you might find another show to add to your list!
