Hey man, keep an open mind. You don't know what it's like till you try.

[Bonta Kun]

Huh wasn't expecting that, thats for sure.
Very pleasantly surprised at how much fun this is.
Nyaruko is rather lovable, her enegry is like oh wow but not displeasing in anyway.

Loved the BLT joke, that was funny. The fact her ahoge formed the upper part of the B is just too silly

The OP is insanely catching. Ed is not bad either.

[Texas84]

This. Is. Awesome.

Oh damn. She was Popura? Is that right?

Any idea what the huge percentages mean? Sounds positive to me.

Eh. All he does is react to her. It'd be fine if his tsukkomis were funny.

It's the evaluation by Nico^2 users of a live broadcast of the first episode:
1. Very good - 86.5%
2. It was okay - 10.7%
3. Not so good - 1.3%
4. Bad - 1.5%

So overall it's 97.2% in favour of the first episode, which going by the comments, is very good, even better than Accel World's results of:
Interesting - 65%
Kinda interesting - 29%
(I would consider these as the equal of 1 & 2 of Nyarlko's poll)

Well, admittedly most of his retorts involve forking her so it's not effective it isn't considered funny. There really isn't much he can do except react to the absurdity around him, except maybe resist being drawn into Nyarlko's pace.

Yes, Nyarlko's VA is Kana Asumi (Popura, Miya Amagami, Yuno Hidamari).

Much thanks.

This show gave me Keroro Gunsou vibes, making my sides hurt.

Aside from the fact that being raised in an old-school western culture makes me very, very angry when women are hit; seeing the cheap little emo pissant gets stabby with a fork when he doesn't like what others are saying, really grinds my gears.

Wrap your brain around that for a second... somebody says something silly, and he grabs a fork and stabs them... he stabs them because he dislikes what they said.

I the great anime pantheon of FailMales to hate, there are useless characters, there are whiney characters, there are emo's and navel-gazers; but cheap little self absorbed flip-out spazzes Mahiro are the utter nadir.

I wish he was real, if only so I could make sure his fingers could never grip a fork again.

Whatever hack writer thought beating and stabbing women, or women like entities makes great comedy, deserves a kick in the jewels too.

just so you know, the writer of the original novel is female. and what mahiro beat up here is Nyarlathotep, The Crawling Chaos, him of a thousand masks. she could change her form into a tentacle monster or a man if she like.

Why is the main character voiced by a girl imitating a boy?

Were Satoshi Hino, Yuuki Kaji, Hiro Shimono, etc. not available to voice the harem lead character?

They probably just wanted an excuse to have KitaEri sing with the other girls in the OP so it'll sell better. Nah, it's because she already voiced him in the flash shorts and they decided to carry everyone over to the new series. This isn't the first time a (non-shota) male lead's been voiced a female anyway.

That's a very common occurrence, you should know.

Such is the way of feminists. They want their cake and eat it too.

The manliest man in anime thus far is Kamijou Touma from the anime Toaru Majutsu no Index. Touma falcon punches guys and girls without discrimination between gender for the evil deeds they have done. Reading comments on blogs/discussion sites however, quite a number of people actually scrutinize Touma for hitting a girl even if she's a evil sadistic bitch. Yet they have no qualms about him doing the same to a guy (Equality lol).

They have even given Touma the nickname "Wife Beater" for daring to defend himself from death. Seemingly disregarding the fact that Touma is usually in a near death state due to the torture inflicted upon by his female opponent BEFORE he delivers justice to their face.

Yea Touma can get bones broken, skin ripped off, limbs cut off, etc. but as soon as he so much as touches a woman to stop the torture, he gets labeled a wife beater.

Steins Gate where Okabe falcon punches a woman for the evil deeds she has committed. People bitch and cry foul about him hitting a woman and completely ignoring the evil deeds she has done in the past. If it were a man that did the same deeds, they'd be cheering him on and want the protagonist to castrate the man. I believe that Touma has actually gotten a reputation among anime fans for falcon punching women.

Now I know the old doctrine of "chivalry" and not hitting women (what about self-defense?) but still, doesn't this take it too far in hypocrisy? It doesn't matter if that person is a mass murdering psychopath, as long as she's female, don't hit her (Equality lol)?

Note to guys: If a woman is ever violently assaulting you, do not defend yourself and let them kill you or you (and your family) will live a life of harassment/vigilantism by white knights and feminists.

Not for harems unless the guy is per-pubescent or very effeminate like the one from Girls Bravo or Kanokon. Rito from To-Love Ru too but he has gender bender mode.

So much seriousness about the mere mortal poking a fork at the moe Eldritch Abomination.

[Ddraig]

I seriously think the main character is gay >_>

Maybe is the VA...Cause i heard the VA is not from a a guy but a girl (Somemore a cute one.)

To the comment below, i don't think i can see the Cthulhu part.

if you think he's gay because he rejected Nyaruko. then i think you should consider that the main guy know Nyaruko's true form is an Eldritch Abomination, and do you really want to romance with this?

i'm afraid something like this will come out

Spoiler for Cthulhu:
