Minami-ke: Okawari

[Seravy]

re: ep3
on par with ep2 IMO. first half was dull, but later moments made up for it. animation quality seems a bit down though, as the art was all over the place.

[deffusse]

hehe.... finally we have got a sub[for 1st ep] >> from [GC]​, an unknown group for me >> gonna check

[sangofe]

I can't help myself by posting the tokyotosho comment they left...
"Comment: #gc@irc.rizon.net Our first sub, don't expect too much from it..."

On the main topic, ep3 finally got the direction "restarted": they are trying(I won't judge how much just yet) to regain the place.

Should I recalled correctly, anime production for ep one and two had been fixed sometime before airing, so they won't even got a chance to know the reaction from audience. Nor even to get the adjustment kicks in soon enough.[normally we can see the corrections for such mistakes at around ep3 onwards]

Let's see what will happen on the next few eps.
[I can understands the gag, I just found the art style and direction a ted bit problem to adopt for 15 mins something.]

Guillotine Cross fansubber eh...although i don't know who they're (probably new groups considering MKO is their first sub project),but they sure put their effort on this anime.Praise them for their well done job.

Anyway for now i skip watching this first.Will come back in this thread once in a while to check the comments.

Having watched several raws (without understanding them) I can say I'm now fully used to the new art style. So now I can enjoy the first episode subbed without any prejudices about that.

IMO, the reports of Okawari's failures have been greatly exaggerated. I enjoyed the first episode. I definitely wouldn't rank it as a classic ep, but it was decent and it had its moments.

Thanks to GC for subbing this.

Oh yeah, you're right. I keep confusing her because of the way she said "Makiiiii~"

It was okay it's not as bad as some people have said. Some of the jokes felt a bit flat or not timed well but overall it wasn't bad it did make me chuckle a couple of times. The animation was good but akward in some places you'll understand once you see it. It had lots of fanservice but it didn't really bother me.

I'll probably follow this new series as well. The first series was good though I didn't consider to be great like Azumanga or Ichigo Mashimaro so I guess that's the reason I'm not that bothered with Minami-ke Okawari being different then the first series was.

Ep 3 has given my vibes of the old minami-ke storyline. But the character changes still bug me...for one thing chiaki has gone past the "love punches" to full blown "slugs to the face".

Spoiler for late comment for ep3:

Having a younger short-tempered sister for over 2 decades, I'd not be surpised Chiaki is that "violent" anyway.
(Even sometime I had to say "Chiaki, you've gone too harsh as a sister. Try leave Kana some slightest grace ok......")

The rule of thumb is that the more she can't stand with the type she hated, the more powerful anger she will unlease.

For Kana, her skills as a baka X planner(messing thing up) is the last thing I need to learn from her.

Touma got unclothed twice, that's what I call fan-services.

What the hell purpose is Fujioka joining there? I don't recall Kana accept his confess.
Maybe Chiaki would like to have a "father" character to stay around her.

Makoto-kun/Mako-chan, you should be smart not to dress a "she" if Chiaki agrees you to join the supposed homework stayover. Or you will get "she" exposed once all girls enters the bedroom. Which is extreme danger that you'll never keep your own face to Chiaki best yet, or got killed at the worst.

Just as I was about to go the RAW route subs appear...How convenient for me.

Eh it wasn't a bad first episode...Seemed like abit of the charm and warmth got replaced with alittle blatant fanservice, but like Sides said the format of the show lends it to being sort of hit or miss. I know with the original series there was one or two episode that fell into that "Miss" category, so if the subbers are gracious enough to give us more in the future i'll be sure to watch.

slight spoiler question about Touma's and Mako-chans secret

Spoiler for question about Touma and Mako-chan:

I need something cleared up... So everyone knows Touma is actually a girl right? and only kana, TOuma and Chiaki's classmate know Mako-chan is a boy, right?

Bright day
AFAIK as of episode 1 of Okawari, Fujioka did not know about Touma.

Now that I've finally seen it with subs (i.e., understand the dialouge now), the Minami charm is still there. Character designs could get some getting used to, but I'm over that already. I don't see why people are complaining about the OP/ED animations though. It's not like you are forced to sit through them every single time.

[Guardian Enzo]

Thank you, GC! What a pleasure to come home from work and find this in the forum it belongs.

[Sheba]

Hum, now that I've seen it....

It's not as bad as people made it out to be! I really liked that part where poor Makoto

Spoiler:

Swore he won't be Mako-chan anymore but wouldn't get into the house unless he is Makochan again.

With those knockers, Haruka will be home in Divergence Eve.
