I basically stumbled upon this by scanning what crunchyroll had to offer on my day off. I had no idea what it was but the art style and the plot synopsis (which was really of the manga) sounded interesting so I figured I'd check it out.
What I found was something I enjoyed, it was funny and dark and while I felt like I didn't fully know what was going on, I was interested in trying to follow it. It sort of felt like I had stumbled upon an inside joke, that while it was fun to watch as an outsider, I knew I was
...
missing a lot of in jokes. After watching the 8 three minute long videos I did some googling and found the manga and sat down for a read. And then I read the prequel. And then I watched the band "Litchi Hikari Club" music videos. And then I watched the anime again. Basically it sucked me in.
What I've found is the deeper you get into the Litchi Hikari Club, the better it gets. I really enjoyed both of the mangas and would recommend those to the not so faint of heart before you go for the anime. Once you've read the manga the anime's humor seems much more unsettling and creepy than it had before.
All in all I feel like this anime can stand up on it's own so long as you're up for some goofy black humor, but it's best enjoyed as an addition to the Litchi Hikari Club manga.
