I'm always over-enthusiastic for first episodes, but I must say that many of the things people are complaining about are what made me like the episode. The inexplicable and sudden stabbing, the lack of emphasis on the jokes, etc. I prefer things to be under-emphasized to being made obvious with a big, smooth ka-boom of timing or sound or image. But the fact that this is the director's first overall directoral gig (he has done episodes) does make one suspect that he may not be a master of his craft just yet.
Warning label: Shinbou is just about my favorite director, and I didn't like K-On but loved Hyouka.
