The animation and the character design in the OP are nice. Tease is right. At least it's cute across the board.

Note: Cthuko's outfit in the OP is hot. (Pun not intended

)

Spoiler for ep1:

Ravenblitz · 2010-12-11, 02:58

has a potential to be a 26 min anime, very nice to watch

letsza · 2010-12-11, 03:56

so is it confirmed that its a 5 min Flash ?

or must we still wait :P

dark998 · 2010-12-11, 05:03

Funny and quick to download and watch. Loved Mahiro's reaction when the other girl suddenly appeared.

Dop · 2010-12-12, 10:56

I can only hope that what we've seen was only a trailer of some kind. Because the opening looked exactly like the old short flash animations I saw a few years ago.

Then suddenly the "It's not a Borg Cube, honest", and the credit sequence appeared, looking really good.

It would seem particularly pointless to have that quality of animation purely for the credits if the rest was old flash animation style...

MaxMaximilianMaximus · 2010-12-12, 15:32

I wonder why I get this indescribable when I see the OP/ED. Clearly they can do the anime in this style, but had to go with flash animation.

Ah well, at least the visuals look far better than the ONA...

sylviana · 2010-12-12, 18:11

2+ minutes actual videos, and 2+ OP.....and still ONA....i've expect it

well, still it's hilarious....and i wait for the fork stabbing

Kleeyook · 2010-12-13, 18:37

5-min-episode anime!? Well it's still longer than Weiss Survive.

ars89 · 2010-12-13, 19:54

that was quite funny, what was with that spaceship though?

Cosmic Eagle · 2010-12-18, 09:50

Just read vol 1 in the book store and all I can say is....wow....they made Nyarlathotep and co into school girls.....Japan never fails to please

dark998 · 2010-12-20, 22:36

2nd episode out, 63 days left till the destruction of mankind.

I wanted to post this in 'current series' http://forums.animesuki.com/forumdisplay.php?f=51 but it wouldn't let me, so since there are still upcoming episodes since it is a series of shorts, I guess it is appropriate here too.

I did not see a thread for this anime, but I found it pretty interesting and am enjoying it now.

The longer OVAish thing is http://animesuki.com/series.php/1620.html and ANBU/umai teamed up to do it. The full title is Haiyoru! Nyaru Ani and there are 9 shorts in it.

So far 3 of the 11 episodes in the TV adaptation have been done by AnimeOne: http://animesuki.com/series.php/1738.html and the full title is Haiyoru! Nyaruani TV

I haven't read the manga this is based on, I saw a picture in a review blog and it looked cute. Reading up a bit though, IT IS BASED ON CTHULU.

I haven't gotten around to reading the Cthulu Mythos, for which there is no excuse since Lovecraft's base material is now free as part of the domain.

For anyone interested in reading the source material for this anime I suggest:
http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Category:Cthulhu_Mythos

For simplicity I'd probably just call this Haiyoru! although Nyaru is also good because that's the name of the girl figure. She is based on Nyarlothotep who is apparently the central deity mischief maker in the novels, apparently outranks Cthulu and actually messes with mortals more, possibly Cthulu is more notable because of the name being associated with the RPG or something.

There's also a movie adaptation coming out (by the guy who did Hellboy and Pan's Labyrinth I think) of Mountains of Madness where we get to see little Cthulu tentacle babies. Good times ahead.

Kenn · 2011-01-07, 17:26

Is this the thread you were looking for? Probably should be moved to Current Series.

tyciol · 2011-01-27, 19:44

Ah, I wonder why I couldn't find that, possibly the different spelling. Yeah it'd be nice if these could be moved to current, or maybe merged.

tyciol · 2011-01-27, 19:45

I ended up making a new thread about this without knowing about this one: http://forums.animesuki.com/showthread.php?t=100149

For anyone who'd like to know, the 9 OVAs are out at http://animesuki.com/series.php/1620.html and 6 of the 11 TV episodes are out at http://animesuki.com/series.php/1738.html

Flower · 2011-01-28, 22:53

Be curious to be able to read the novels themselves in English ... the anime eps I have seen are ... well ... weird. Not good, not bad - just ... weird.

Part of me wishes it could have been given a "normal" treatment for a half season anime instead of these little Flash based snippets.

Maybe they are running this as a test of sorts to see of a half season would "work"?

Flower · 2011-01-30, 21:49

Okay ... Episode 6 had me in stitches!

If the novels are like that it would be a very funny read! The previous 5 episodes were sorta blah in comparison.... Pity.

Flower · 2011-02-27, 20:24

Annddd ... that's a wrap. I wonder if this thread should be moved to the Completed Series section?

Anyhoo ... a nice ending with a little bit of a stereotyped "d'awwww" moment.

I really would like to see these novels get their own season....

I agree it was quite a nice set of shorts. It's too bad it didn't get a real season, some of the humor was quite funny.

A nice set of shorts I'll agree with, but...did I miss something? The last episode didn't really fit. Is this one of those "you really to read the book" things?
