Her stupidity worries me at times... But the anime version seems to exaggerate her idiocy... Poor girl. I need to keep that in mind though. Well, 2nd favorite, I guess? Though K-ON's characters aren't that great in the first place, so doesn't mean much, maybe... Probably the main one that feels like the "moe" element is too forced.

[DJ_RockmanX]

ADD girl is...

...nice doggie...

[Kaisos Erranon]

I agree with the people who have described her as a small, furry animal.

Chipmunks act like they have ADD, don't they...

[vandakiara]

I found Yui really really annoying at the begining but I grew fond of her on the 2nd episode because she behaved more mature than I expected when

Spoiler for episode 2:

she gave back the money so she could find another way of buying a guitar without troubling everyone...

that made me like her much more <3 and she is like a furry animal - she's the club pet after all x)

as long as she doesn't get mentally ret**ded

She is rather cute and reminds sometimes Fuuko. Her personality is rather interesting. I think that we will see more interesting details and progression soon in her personality. Second episode was rather interesting in this plan.

[KholdStare]

Yui is absolutely adorable and she is my favorite character so far. I used to be indifferent towards the four but her voice in the OP convinced me to put her above others.

[OceanBlue]

Yui reminds me of a combination of Nagisa and Fuuko. She isn't annoying like Fuuko, but isn't as plain as Nagisa. She's really cute [Well, they all are, but...].

[aldw]

Yui always gave me Tsukasa vibes, not that that's a bad thing of course...

i agree i like girls like that but it does get annoying at times, but seeing how much she loved the guitar made it worth it

[Fandal]

The thing I like about Yui in the Manga

Spoiler:

Is her ability to learn new things extremely fast. She also has an extremely good observational capability giving her the ability to see stuff that the other characters won't notice. This is countered by her equally strong ability to get easily distracted. She also has a very hard time doing more then one thing at a time.

Yui....
at this stage I cannot rate her.....
my impression she is a Dreamer a bit timate but looks like she will grow strong as the series continue

[Sai Feng]

Ah Yui, such an odd little creature

*rubs Yui's head*

[therationalpi]

Yui is probably the character that interests me the most, at this point. She seems like a dimwit, but at the same time I think she's going to be more than that. My guess is that she'll turn out to be really smart, just scatter-brained. To put it in D&D terms, she has a high Intelligence but an abysmal Wisdom score.

Also, adorable. That's high charisma, right?

Agreed. If Yui dyes her hair into Tsukasa's color, put on that yellow hairband, and does the "BOON" gesture Tsukasa does in the Lucky Star OP, she is... well, Tsukasa in general

[Deathscyther]

Yui = Tsukasa+Fuko

Anyways, I love her. She's my second favorite.

[Avira]

She is just too cute^^
I don't think she's stupid, she just walks around with her head up in the clouds. But she'll come down sometime in the anime, I guess. Yui's might actually be very smart.

My favorite character so far^^

[Grif]

Also my favourite ^^.

I actually think her absent mindedness and just plain stupidity works in her favour, she is just really likeable ^^.

[Starlight]

Well she has been bumming around all her life...but what else can you do in kindergarden

She's so adorable though<3
