(L) Indian Summer (Koharu Biyori) OVA

[Katsu Koneko]

Well I heard the manga was pretty good from a friend, but I couldn't find it so I watched the anime instead. xD Loooved it. Yui reminds me of Nagi (as already stated) and I also like Yui better. xD

I made a Panshot of our first encounter of Yui. It's my 3rd panshot I've ever done soo yeah go easy on me. ^^;

I actually perceive her as loli more for the way she behaves and the sexual innuendo surrounding her character rather than her actual size, which doesn’t help too much since it still makes her look like a kid. I don’t usually call characters loli unless they show significant lack of maturity—behaving like a kid—, they are physically undeveloped—looking like a kid—, and are used especially for a sexual context. Yui may not look like a loli to you, but I find her to be that way because she falls into some of the categories above.

Well I don't know how to read Japanese..is there anyone translating it in English?

[Deathkillz]

that is just the title of this series in japanese

didnt know that the subs was out for this...i have to rewatch XD
*remembers crazy OP*

[Katsu Koneko]

I know that! >.<

I meant that I don't know how to read Japanese so I'll have no clue on what's going on in the manga.

lol

Anyways as I know of there isn't a scanlation of this series. Though I find this manga easy to know what's going on because it emphasize the comedy mostly through visual and not dialouge. BTW I also dont know how to read Japanese either and yet I still laugh while checking out the manga.

[Guardian Enzo]

Well that was... Something.

He Is My Master, for sure, with some Chokotto Sister thrown in too. She Was My Chokotto Sister, something like that. Not really sure what to make of this, but the baby chapter was hilarious in it's outlandish bad taste.

[Bocca]

I had to pause this show like every 10-20 seconds to laugh for a bit. Else I'd be laughing too much and missing the dialogue.

[Haropotter]

LOL funny thing is people walk in on me in the middle of a fanservice

[Kaoru Chujo]

Very weird, and yet somehow enjoyable. Aimless and awkward, but with lots of laughs and a good feeling about it.

I watched this to hear Hayami Saori (Momoka in Touka Gettan) in her second anime role and Yahagi Sayuri. But I didn't notice either. I hope they get more to say in episode 2 (Sunday 13 January at 25:00h). I thought Kitamura Eri did a great job as a naive tsundere robot.

As they say in Latin America:

Gooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllllll!

[FlareKnight]

Well that was pretty interesting .

Really liked Yui's character here. Can feel for her situation at times. Odd enough that the closest person to normal isn't even human. Was an...interesting adventure with the babysitting.

So was just something enjoyable to watch for half an hour.

[SuperKnuckles]

Oh my God. I just watched it and it basically has the frantic comedic pace of Seto no Hanayome and INSANE, IN YOUR FACE fanservice.

YESSSS!

[ThoHell]

WOW..perverted, just perverted! But still pretty funny.

Spoiler for ep2:

New OP - Part disturbing, part amusing, part "happy yaro"

Part One

-Cameo by Mariel from Hanaukyo
-And Nanoha, Mahoro, and Multi... -_-
-And the main characters of the respective shows...
-A slightly ero-competition...

Features an ojou-sama maid robot called Kuon, destined never to be sold...

Part Two

-Swimsuits... School swimsuits too...
-Running on water and burning up!
-*loses brain cells from the weird sentai thing*
-Bathing scene with plenty of bouncing breasts... (-_-)
-Some sudden drama...

Part Three

-A Takuya-customized figure appears... As expected of him. *nosebleed*
But still... She came alive!
And she knows everything he does.
-Either I found the most amusing, or this was just short.

Overall, just more fun/comedy and fanservice and pointlessness. Only one more left?

[Deathkillz]

ep 2 ~

Spoiler:

Is it me...or did this less whacky than the first one? certainly takuya seemed more mature (heaven zomg ).
Still though...robo or not...he is one happy happy yaro >_<

The usual over the top ecchi fest...border line H material if you look at the way kuon was sucking on that ice loli lolly as well as the "has to be done" octopus scene

Great fun what only comes once every 3 months ^^ (or was it 4?).

[Kaoru Chujo]

Koshimizu Ami strikes again, with a lovely over-the-top performance as Kuon in ep2. And Shimizu Ai is at her best (which isn't as good as Amisuke, but still pretty good) as Sakuya.

To enjoy this show, I guess you have to like fanservice, but there is more going on here than just that, it seems to me. Nice little show, with humor and heart and a good performance from Kitamura Eri as Yui.

[serenade_beta]

Spoiler for ep3:

First part-

At first, I was like ... What is going on? But, as I thought, it was fake...
But it was still pretty funny, especially the fact that Takaya was that "Onee-sama" was...
And that "O*beep*ni was very sudden (but expected), but funny too.
Seems Takaya went to see the Shakugan no Shana movie.

Second Part-

Overall, just simple good fun (with the whole cast), until the end, where it turns to drama! Hah... I wish it would just stick to humor...
Well, they have to find some way to end the OVAs after all.

Third part-

-"Tsundere"
-Lots of switching from drama and comedy, but I ended up liking it a lot.
The ending song was nice too.
It also ended with it's title, "Koharu Biyori" (Early/Mild Autumn weather) and a nice shot of the two.
...But... where are they? It's not their apartment. Relative's place? Time skip and new house?


Overall, a short series, but it was a lot of fun and had a lot of fanservice. Fairly brainless, but it was still a nice series.
It's over though...
