I enjoyed the first episode even more than I thought I would. Very pleasant jokes and dialogues (that whole part about the air friend

). I thought the chara design was only decent until Sena appeared... dear god, she is beautiful. Yozora looks a bit plain compared to her. The little sister looks very cute too, I hope we won't have to wait long for her introduction.

Sena's personality was a bit different from what I imagined, in a good way. I didn't expect her to be so pretentious/arrogant, and I certainly never thought she steps on boys on a daily basis. Her and Yozora are basically polar opposites, their banter is sure to be entertaining.

Looking forward to more.

I wonder if anyone else noticed that the LN that Kodaka was reading is an MF Bunko label....

Well there's no way in hell they would show a Dengeki Bunko label

Sigh, knowing the story beforehand really does sort of dull the effects of this episode for me- Half the time I was mentally urging it to hurry up and get the introduction phase over and done with...

But I'm rather surprise to find a number of people here favoring Yozora over Sena- first timers no doubt, this would prove to be an interesting case study for me after the next few weeks....

Cool ending though, if somewhat Ironic

Hell yeah....rocks...literally. Although it's more likely they would bash each other senseless with their instruments...

Lord of Fire · 2011-10-07, 09:42

A better start for the series than that episode 0 I watched a while ago.

To be honest, I favor Yozora over Sena for the moment. While Sena is definitely interesting, I like how Yozora is more down to earth and less arrogant.

Saturn Beaver · 2011-10-07, 09:45

I can't say much having read the manga and afraid of spoiling things, but the first episode so far seems a good enough adaptation for me. It's pretty much just the intro, and I think the story will become more interesting as the group grows larger (Rika! Universe!) but the core will still be the Kodaka-Sena-Yozora triangle anyways.

Not really, I find that aside from Black vs Blond, the other core of the story would be the 'rivalry' between the [Sister of God] and the [Sister of Darkness].

Not once did I think I've liked Sena as I am now when I started reading the manga, so it will be interesting to see people's reaction when we react half of the show

.

This really reminded of lady v butler, and that's not a good thing, I thought it was alright probably need to give an episode or two more before I can really judge but so far seems pretty standard, although the color pallet doesn't seem to fit, maybe the characters were more of the shoujo design i could buy that color pallet.

Flower · 2011-10-07, 10:00

Hmm ... kinda liked ep 1 ... will try out a few more eps for now. It seems the show has potential, although I hope it heads into "new areas" as opposed to exploiting standard models and "tropes".

Not bad for a start I guess.

FDW · 2011-10-07, 10:18

So I saw episode 1 last night. It was awesome, though I didn't expect Yozora's voice to be so deep. It doesn't matter though, because it makes plenty of sense in context.

Sumeragi · 2011-10-07, 10:26

Has anyone noticed that Yukimura seems to not be wearing any panties in the OP?

Haak · 2011-10-07, 10:33

I was actually gonna pass on this one since it looked like a another generic harem but decided to give the first episode a try since I had already dropped two on my watch list already. I'm glad I tried it since it's actually a lot better than I thought it'd be. It's not exactly brilliant but it was alright.

~Yami~ · 2011-10-07, 10:54

awesome.... I laugh too much... this is really over my expectation... I already know that manga version is good enough but somehow I'm satisfied with OVA and ep 1
the opening is funny.... Yozora Vs Sena is great... while Kodaka's plain reaction is hilarous.. and the ending is cool
So far, I like them all...
I really hope I can have similar club in my high school life

Depends, are you willing to be an outcast for the rest of your school life

?

MagicaLideaL · 2011-10-07, 11:01

Oh my.. What a way to start your new school life Kodaka. Not only that he scare the heck out of the teacher but also his fellow classmates. The art is quite decent and nothing special until Sena stepped out to proves me wrong

hmm... it will not be bad if I have some beautiful friends like Yozora and Sena

they just want to be themselves so they're lack of friends... but in that way, they will find true friends.... xD

love this anime.... hopefully they will keep this up

And you can prove your theory even on sites like Sankaku.

Yeah, that and and obvious hidden reason.

Kusa-San · 2011-10-07, 12:10

A really good first episode. Kodaka is a good male lead, I already like him. Much better than most of the harem male lead. Really like Yozora and Sena too. They're both great and I can't stop laughing when they were arguing

Now, I want the next ep !
