Watched first episode. Not exactly certain what to think of it. I liked the pacing. I also liked the background imagery which focused on nature. It wasn't bad per se, but I think I'll need to watch a few more episodes before making a general impression about if the series will be worth following.

Same here. It's got potential, but hard to say for sure so far.
One thing's for sure, the next day reaction to his accidental flash was cruel. There's not much worse a girl can say to a guy than that with his size it's hard to get a good look. Of course, there's worse TIMES a girl could say that than after an accidental flash, but that's another story altogether. |

While watching the first episode I really wished that the character's actions and reactions weren't so predictable. Everything I thought would happen ended up happening. I appreciate it when a story breaks away from those moments...even if it only happens like 1 out of 5 times.
Oh well. I'll keep watching it and see how it goes. |

I thought it was a joke that the lil' bro is cuter than the girls but damn, he really is (so far)! That aside there's absolutely nothing noteworthy about this at all but I'll give it a few more eps for some otouto moe. Also, lol @ the preview. Even the writers acknowledge it.

For an eroge adaptation, the art actually looks good in my eyes. Or at least, it's like 10x better than Akane Iro was visually. The backgrounds, especially the ones in the forest, looks pretty darn awesome IMO.
And osananajimi heroine? Ganbatte! Gonna be an uphill battle as Ui looks to be the 'main heroine', and she hasn't shown her current self yet, but like all the girls, she has a chance. Just hope no omnibus nor no harem ending in the end lols; I'd take a loss over either anyday.

I know this is based on an eroge so fanservice and such are going to be there but ... Ugh. The cliches and ridiculous situations ... They're annoying everytime I see them happen. You just happen to slip so that you fall on a girl, and you just happen to either grope her, KISS her or do both. No idea how kissing can happen as an '' accident ''.
Well I'll watch further but if this is going to be another YnS ... I'll drop it.

I was expecting something incredibly generic when I watched this, but it does actually have one thing that breaks away from the niche of eroge stories. The little brother instead of a little sister is something I've never seen before, and it's kind of refreshing, though it certainly doesn't stop them from putting in incestuous yaoi undertones.
Plus whoever the woman is that's providing the voice for the boy isn't making it very convincing that it's a male voice, then again that could be the point. Overall though, this series is just total harmlessness so far. Seems to be just another fluffy story about a young man and his trials in finding love. I could be proven wrong though.~ I laughed pretty good when the inn's manager made fun of the main character's manhood though. =P

Well this is a classic harem anime so yes it's predictable like the others.
Anyway , this time is ... Lil Bro Trap Usually , the male lead should have a cute lil sis lol Also this show kinda make me think of Yosuga no Sora without the hard ecchi & cie. Dude , why those male lead always forget their youth... |

Ahhh attack of the killer cliches! Well, I did laugh twice at least. Once for seeing the male protagonist crying and saying "I'll never get married now!" and again when the girls were bashing his package size
Also I must wonder if he really fell on her and their faces clashed...it wouldn't have been such a nicely placed kiss, the force of the fall would have likely hurt quite a bit there Well, I'll give it a couple more just to see if its a fun watch or not, I can pretty much guess everything that's gonna happen already probably. I've been surprised before though and even cliche things can be a fun watch if done right so we'll see, though I am not holding much expectation. |

While the ingredients of this show are certainly things we have all seen before, as with any dish, it is the way you cook them that determines the final outcome. In this regard, despite being quite Cliche, i found the first episode to be rather enjoyable. The character interactions are entertaining enough with their light humor, and overall the cast seems like a fun bunch, especially the landlady ... ouch, she must have destroyed all of Kazuma's pride with her morning remark (Aside from Ibuki, i can already feel her as the thorn that she is in my side ... and considering her apparent clinginess towards Ui, i expect her to remain as the proverbial fifth wheel up to the very end.)
What stood out though was the visual side of things, especially backgrounds - an obvious amount of effort and detail has went in to them, the potential for "scenery porn" is certainly there. The overall look is colorful and vibrant (in a good way), and character designs quite appealed to my tastes, so the end result is a quite visually pleasing package. (Didn't really like Ui's voice though, a wee bit childish tone for my tastes). So ... yeah. Despite the overall predictability (and the dubiousness of plausibility of an accidental kiss), the first ep left an overall good impression. Now excuse me while i go sacrifice something to the Dark Gods, in hopes that this one will deliver a conclusive end, romance wise, in what seems like the inevitable triangle between Ui and the childhood friend who has yet to show up. Seeing this is based on a VN there shouldn't be much issues in this regard, but you never know these days. Now, where did my ritual dagger go ...
