It looks... normal. I prefer the covers for both the ED and the soundtrack.

Don't say normal!

But I do agree. I love the colors on the ED one.

Image contribution has left me in despair!

It's nearly impossible not to like this show, lol. It's one of the very few that I've seen Narut fans and Lain fans come together over (or any other similarly opposite fandoms). For me, it's double awesome cuz it's my favorite genre (dark humor) and my favorite director (Akiyuki Shinbo <3) Amazing how he can stay so true to the manga but be so experimental.

And thats why it normally takes me 30mins to watch a 22min epi of SZS. That and the pausing for laughing.

K'ching.... just watched episode 1. Yes, this show is full of win except that the use of The Face liberally splattered across the screen had me pulling my hair out. I figure at least half of them were unnecessary.

But otherwise, the thing is a marvelous little dark comedy. I could seriously see this as a live-action comedy as well

Now to catch up.. wheee. It does make me wonder about Shinbo ... after handling Tsukuyomi Moon Phase, PPD, and Hidamari Sketch so well and respectfully -- he must have hated Negima (to be so untrue to it). But anyway, back to SZS.....

[Deus ex Digital Boy]

hilariously enough, you're completely right. He's been known to hate Ken Akamatsu apparently. But also, he prolly wanted to change it up since there was already an anime adaption.

That really bothered me in the first epi but it becomes less and less as the epis progress so youll still have hair left over and not be our balding invisible friend from the class

No it was not Shinbo who hated Akamatsu Ken's work, you have it all wrong.

I know this is not the place to discuss this, though i seriously see nothing wrong with Shinbo/Shaft's Negima adaptation. I mean, just from hearing the news about Shinbo doing his own version of Negima, it was a given that it wasn't going to be anything us manga readers wanted in terms of a worthy adaptation. It was wacky Shinbo fun from start to finish (with a lovely dark couple of first episodes), and i loved it.

Ah I get it now! Very nice
If I could draw, Id attempt Itoshiki since he doesnt seem that hard to capture but alas my lack of drawing skills has left me in despair.

It is really nice. However, I like this Evangelion crossover better:

This is also a very nice clip. I like the BGM, though you may think you are watching a completely different anime, a romance, rather than a story about despair.

This clip reminds me of "the shining" parody, where some guy made an advertisement for "the shining" as a family-friendly show while in reality, it is a horror movie.

No Itoshiki-sensei in the onsen from what I could notice, though.

Overall I really like this show, but I hate the images (RL faces) they used for censorship. Watched just ep.1 and I'm more disgusted than excited >_>
Probably I'll not watch more if I can't find any version without the ugly RL faces.

I downloaded few DVD versions, for example [-_-'] Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei - 01 [DVD a.f.k.subs 704x480 x264 AAC], but couldn't find any completely "uncensored" so far.

Apparently there are 2 versions of each episode on DVD.
Could anyone please confirm that the "uncensored" version still contains the ugly guy's faces that just slowly fly away uncovering the ecchi parts (shirohamada's version), and the only other version is the TV one?
Or is there a version that has no ugly RL faces at all?

( I guess all versions contain these faces ;_;
...which means I'll probably skip this otherwise very nice show ;_; )

Only the first episode contains alot of that face (It's the director, btw). The rest of them only have a few appearances. It bothered me the first time, but after that, I didn't really care. The show makes up for it in awesomeness.
