I like the fact that it's in short format. The concept seems like it would be dragged out if done in full length.

Her classmates actually look scarier than the ghosts

The MC looks like she's related to Kibayashi-sensei from Honto ni Atta! Reibai-Sensei.

Ep 01

wakaba so cute I love those eyes, and she should tell her "new friends" she can see some things

8/10

Flower · 2013-12-28, 08:26

Ep 2 is out, and it was strange again.... But not bad, I think. Just... wierd.

Guardian Enzo · 2013-12-28, 20:29

I actually liked the second ep better than the first - I thought it was pretty funny. But this is really just the teaser trailer for Oshikiri's main series, Hi Score Girl. If that one is short-length I'll be bitterly disappointed.

GDiddy · 2013-12-28, 21:25

Oh this was cute. The MC sounded like Hanazawa.

Ep 02

Hahaha best attack by Pupipo

~~User68604~~ · 2014-01-01, 23:40

very cute show

the voice acting seems to be spot on and the premise is cute. I almost wish this was in a regular 25 min format!!

~~User68604~~ · 2014-01-03, 20:40

nice sweet episode. lol'd so hard at that sudden confession

Anime Online · 2014-01-03, 20:48

If a big, round pink .. thing were to fly at me and do a kiss-kiss attack, you can bet I'd be out of there in no time too. Maybe even beat the world record for 100m sprint.

FredFriendly · 2014-01-04, 07:41

I was surprised and disappointed that they toned down the anime to the point where Ameyama is only represented as a stalking unrequited lover, instead of the bully [with a crush] that he actually is, beating up Wakaba with a broom to the point where her father even notices "wounds" when she gets home.

Perhaps the director wants this to be a completely wholesome, feel-good anime. It will be interesting to see how further episodes play out.

NeutralZero · 2014-01-04, 07:57

like the series so far but... why does it have to be so short?

Dop · 2014-01-13, 08:53

Well, that was darker than I expected the show to get...

Spoiler for ep4:

Spoiler for ep4:

I'd say they are being faithful to the "spirit" of the manga (yes, Aa-chan does get hit by a car and dragged off to the afterlife), but they are still leaving out important stuff I suppose for the sake of condensing it to fit into the short format.

Nonetheless, I still like it so far. However, if they continue to leave out too much (they omitted a whole chapter in this episode), it may prove to be less than the some of its parts.

Ep 04

her only friend is............. die :O
