Nyarko 01 - Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn means I Love You
Acchi Kocchi is heartwarming, and Sengoku Collection is adventurous, but this show just rocketed to the top of my favorites list for this season. I'm vaguely familiar with Chtulu, well-read in love comedy, and extremely familiar with Kamen Rider, so couple that with some incredibly well-timed reflexive metacomedy, and this show has everything I'm looking for. It's by far the most anime-ish of the anime out this season. (Yes, I mean that as a compliment.)
The opening theme is incredibly bouncy, and the ED isn't bad either. I had no idea Kana Asumi could be so manic. I watched the shorts when they were released, but switching to a full-length show has done wonders for it. Nyarko's Kamen Rider poses are the icing on the cake of a really well baked cake. (She even quoted Momotaros there, for a moment.)
This show is wonderful.
