it's like THE THING. You know this normal looking human there could turn into something nasty and you are just always cautious of it.

I agree. Her voice work here takes the spotlight. Thanks to her energetic performance, it's a fun first episode.

I am however surprised that Kitamura Eri is voicing for the male lead. I'm so used to her girly loli voice most of the time.

First time hearing her do a male role, but I think she's doing fine. Although I am more used to hearing her genki girl voice.

You would no doubt kill Ika musume just because she has tentacles and an itch for world domination :-p

No, I'd rather let the Winchester Brothers to do that job.

Myssa Rei · 2012-04-11, 09:51

At this point in time, I'm more comfortable with thinking of Nyalko as an "it" rather than a "she", in much the same way as Saya from Saya no Uta is not really a cute green-haired girl.

Ignoring the fact that this is a comedy, and that in this wacky universe the Elder Evils as we know them are really just a bunch of otaku aliens, I'm not bothered about the all the poking with the forks. It's not like our titular character is inconvenienced in the long run by it.

chaos_animagic · 2012-04-11, 10:04

BTW... do those "Mytho devil-like" creatures have "balls"?...

I meant... she kicked him there and it seemed to hurt, but from how you look at it... the devil's below is completely flat and it doesn't look like he's wearing any cloth... I think that's his Skin.

Unless... they get auto-censored and their private parts gets flattened?... LOL

Also, forgot to post... I laughed at the Ika Family Tree (so... Gekka is like the mother of everything?)
Tho... Where's the Octopus Girl (that was shown at times but never revealed in Ika Musume manga/ anime)... she was cute... and I believe she's supposed to be related to Ika Musume.

(or in this case... Megurine Luka)

I don't mean to bring it up in the anime thread but is there a light novel thread for this series?

Sumeragi · 2012-04-11, 10:37

Over here. In fact, you posted in it

Mura · 2012-04-11, 10:37

I see, oh wow. I completely forgot I posted in there.

I think the audience would have to make a sanity check if Nyaruko-san goes into Lorena Bobbit mode every time she kills a nighthaunt O_o;

From all Lovecraft works, Nightgaunts seem genderless....

I would say being hit in the pubic bone, regardless of gender, would be extremely painful.

Nah, I'm fine with it. In fact I'm enjoying it.

Fortunately this is a comedy, so I find Haiyore! Nyaruko-san significantly less disturbing than Saya no Uta.

spawnofthejudge · 2012-04-11, 12:50

Wow. That was... fantastic. I had to have been giggling for twenty-five minutes straight. I was expecting a 5/10 and got an 8+. If this keeps up, this will be by far my favorite comedy in a while.

I join the chorus of "Yay! Popura in a lead role!"

larethian · 2012-04-11, 13:41

Btw, is this the first GA LN that got animated?

Yui Is My Wife · 2012-04-11, 13:43

Any other role-players started hammering their desks in laughter at the "Sanity Points" reference to "Call of the Cthulhu?

Spoiler for Not Safe For Work.... Sigh:

larethian · 2012-04-11, 13:50

I just started watching some minutes ago. WTF! LOL at the blatant GA lineup advertising!

EDIT: Ok, I originally thought that this is just some moe-fanservice show. But it's hilarious enough for me to decide to follow it

Xellos-_^ · 2012-04-11, 13:59

why do i have the feeling Nyaruko-chan is playing the Main lead for a fool. We only have what she said that she is working for a galactic police force. We are talking about someone who "delights in cruelty, is deceptive and manipulative"

I've been lacking the Internets at home for a week. So, I can't start watching even if I wanted to. However, accessing via other places (like "work"), I find the opening theme to be... crazy and addictive.

At least, this better be the opening.

Spoiler:

By the looks of it (and what I've read on this thread), the main character is Tsundere. Am I correct?

abc0716 Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2010 Age: 33	Spoiler for Episode 1: After watching this episode, I felt this series is better than what I expect, so far. Bunch of reference from various series (Pokemon, Half-Life, Shakugan no Shana[?]...) make me laugh most of the time I watching this series. The one that Nyaruko random shouting the model name of Mobile Suits from various Gundam series is the comedy scene I like the most. Rating for this episode: 7/10
