Although SOOMEE of it did not make any sense, I'm really enjoying this anime so far! Almost every scene, every line, every character is relevant to the story until it all boils up to the big final truth. I don't think viewers should take this anime too seriously though, because I can guarantee that there are some parts that didn't really make sense. To be for real, the story would've ended with all the wanted characters getting arrested if the story was realistic. But nah, I believe this anime shouldn't be criticized for being 'not realistic enough'.

Overall, it's a great anime. I definitely recommend ... it to people who are looking for some good suspense anime.

PLEASE tell me I'm not the only one who hates this anime.

The anime has a catchy opening theme, and a title as well. But every single episode in this godforsaken anime is such a pain in the ass to watch. I've seen a lot of people enjoy the anime because it's silly and chaotic but this is just another LEVEL. This anime is just simply incomprehensible. And DO NOT even compare this to Azumanga Daioh! Please, Shikanoko and Azumanga don't even compare.
Anyway, the anime is BAD. It's BAD because-
1. There is barely ANY plot. Sure, it's a nichijou anime. But where is ... the REASON to keep watching? What's the goal? I find this anime a mish mash of 'funny' little jokes, without anything to remotely connect them to make it make sense. If that makes sense.
2. As a Japanese person, I know a lot about Japanese humor especially in the entertainment industry. Usually, it's a trope where someone does something stupid and someone else wraps up the joke with a Tsukkomi, which basically means 'punchline'. Shikanoko serves as the stupid, silly character and Nokotan "makes it funny" with a Tsukkomi. THE THING IS.. Nokotan's Tsukkomis are so LAME. And they actually rather make Shikanoko look 'cuter' than funnier. It's so LAME.
3. The majority of fans, as far as I know, are MEN. This anime is literally meticulously and carefully handicrafted for men, rather DEGENERATES. Shikanoko and Koshitan is portrayed to be CUTE. I don't know, it just gives me the worst ick because I could smell degeneracy fuming from a mile away.

I apologize for my not-so-imformative review. I just wanted to rant how overrated this anime is. I know I only watched a few, and I mean A FEW episodes. And THAT my friends, is for a reason.
