Less of a parody than Shana-tan, and the characters looked quite static, but seemed pretty funny anyway. Holding my rating till subs are out.

There are subs.

It wasn't that funny now, taking subs into account. Spaghetti eating? Italians? Ancient tribal customs? This ain't the Toradora I know.

So. Confused.

It was very funny, but what I'm most confused by is Minorin's strange accent during her Meat Rant... is she trying to imitate a Westerner or something?

She uses that voice a lot in her weirder moments in the actual series.

We'd probably need a native Japanese speaker to tell us whether that's an imitation of a foreigner or a Japanese dialect. XD

It sounds a bit like she's trying to rap, the exaggerated way she's pronouncing everything... sorta like "MC Akio" in Clannad...

I found it amusing, but nothing special. Similar to how I see Shana-tan (and Index-tan). It was a fun waste of five minutes, nothing more or less.

... I was shocked when the subs came out.

Good thing fansubs exist.

I didn't say it was anything special. Still, it's good for the laughs.

What I meant was that my initial understanding of the raws wronged me.

I also liked the line about being ignored by Minori even when he comes up in conversation.

Obviously going for the "school of comedic absurdity" but mostly meh.... I will say the "ears mode" chibi girls were somewhat cute...
