The seiyuu were perfect, as was the narrator. The animation was also noticeably better than what I'd seen in the PVs.
What, no one else has love for Optimus Prime and the RX-78-2? What about the Pinkachu or God Magnus?

Good, no one I know so far

Very fun episode, nice to see the manga in animated form, and......being the big Mahoraba fan that I am, I usually reserved Ryoko Shiraishi to relate to Mahoraba only, but.....nice to see an almost identical Ryuushi Shiratori again

Something tells me the DVD releases will be un-"signed"

And no, I didn't watch this because of Nagi! I'm not a lolicon! And no calling me lolitron! I....I'm watching this series because of Maria! Yeah that's right! I'm a Maria-con

/me hides....
