I'm surprised I'm not finding any sub groups yet listed to do this show. As Aria's director you'd think there would be more hype with the show, and I'm probably one of only 3 people I know who loved Princess Tutu.

I loved it as well.

I'm sure subs will appear for this in due time.

Waaaah...my friend wrote a bad review about Tamayura...T____T

And the episodes are seriously gonna be 15 minutes long!? I was kinda expecting it to be longer. But...NO! No! I WILL watch this! I don't care what others think! I will watch it no matter what!

CWW · 2010-09-06, 12:46

How many episodes are planned?

FireChick · 2010-09-06, 13:02

According to various sites I browsed, there's gonna be around 4 eps or something.

Maon is

will rewatch it a couple of times tomorrow. will post more comments later. going to sleep now~

I will take your word for it, but try convincing the blogger for the Star Crossed Anime Blog that. (forgive me for double-posting)

Kaoru Chujo · 2010-09-06, 15:28

I come down somewhere between the positive reactions and Star Crossed.

Spoiler for ep1:

E_I · 2010-09-06, 20:01

I'm really liking it. Fu is downright adorable and Kao is wacky as hell.

Spoiler for Episode 1:

***CrowKenobi*** · 2010-09-06, 21:46

Mamiko is out with a speedsub version and this gets moved to the current series forum.

Tempester · 2010-09-06, 22:32

So when does the BD come out?

Souka · 2010-09-07, 02:07

I've just watched the first episode and liked it. I am usually not that keen on moe, but I couldn't resist the cuteness of Fu.

Spoiler:

A sweet and relaxing watch, waiting for more.

MeoTwister5 · 2010-09-07, 09:14

Hm... perhaps it's my fault for having... too high expectations even from the first episode?

The episode feels a bit too saccharine at some points but, probably owing to the 15 minute run it doesn't really overpower everything else. The cast comes across as a very normal and honest bunch who really act their age (for the most part), much like the Aria crew does, so while they don't do much for this episode there's nothing to dislike about them and all the potential to like them more than what we have so far.

And assuming I'm not alone in this, the seemingly "magic" of the camera and the Tamayura phenomenon gives off a very Windy Tales vibe for some reason. That's probably the biggest compliment I can give the episode thus far.

Kanon · 2010-09-07, 12:30

Fuwa fuwa~

Aaah, that was so short! It was over before I knew it. I enjoyed this episode a lot for its soothing atmosphere. The characters were very cute, too. Fuu's brother is quite the trap, up until now I was convinced he was a girl...

Hmm, I see some people are comparing this to K-on. Maybe I should think about watching it, then.

Unfortunately, the first thing that popped up in my mind was Occult Gakuin, where Maya completely debunked this phenomenon. This kind of ruined this wonderful and profound mystery for me.

Wait...WHAT?!? Kou is Fuu's BROTHER?!? I thought that was a little girl!...and a very cute one at that!!!

Shiroth · 2010-09-07, 14:39

Well that was such a Satou Junichi treat. There's quite a few similarities to Aria, especially when it comes to camera shots and the amount of detail to background, and the little things (especially the food eating scene). I enjoyed the hell out of it just for that reason, though the cast also makes for a very fun experience. Sure there's a lot of moe there, though it's nice and not forced like you get in a lot of shows.

Plus the whole business of the Tamayura is so something that would be fit into Aria.

I can see why people would compare this to K-ON, though personally i wouldn't do such a thing.

FireChick · 2010-09-07, 16:38

I agree! But I never thought it was like K-On at all! I saw the first episode after I got home from school and it simply relaxed the heck outta me. It was just plain sweet and adorable! I already love Fu-chan and Maon-chan (I know she talks. I heard her myself!)! I seriously can't see anything wrong with it! Sure the length of the episode is a little short and there wasn't much development, but I loved it! Waaah...why did my friend give it a bad review!? But I don't care! It charmed me and I'm gonna watch the next one when it comes out! The only thing that really ticked me off was...

Spoiler:

Plus the music was just perfect for this series. I think I found my all-time favorite Nakajima Megumi song! And Sakamoto Maaya one!

Qikz · 2010-09-07, 20:11

Pretty fun watch, nice and relaxing. ^_^

Master_Yoma · 2010-09-07, 22:12

well its a good story its a shame that it runs only 16mins for the first ep.

wingman32x · 2010-09-08, 00:36

Well, I decided to check this out after finding out that the director also did Aria, one of the best slice of life anime IMO.

For this one, I liked it. Fu's "mysteries of photography" speech sounded like something right out of Akari's book. They're both pretty similar. Kaoru seems like a good best friend type of character. I saw many similarities between this and Aria. Overall a good enough start to warrant sticking around for another episode.

Kaoru Chujo Yuuki Aoi Join Date: Jul 2004	I come down somewhere between the positive reactions and Star Crossed. Spoiler for ep1: I enjoyed it myself, and didn't really find it that hackneyed -- maybe because I love photography and do get the romantic appeal of it -- but I also felt some things were a bit over the top. I like Taketatsu Ayana, but her voice often seemed a bit much to me here. And the girl that whistled made me laugh, not in a good way. Great to hear Asumi Kana, though (Poplar). Maybe I need more than 15 minutes to really get into it. __________________ YUUKI Aoi 悠木碧. b92.03.27 (age 26). 2008 Kurenai (Murasaki). 2009 Yumeiro Pâtissière (Ichigo), Kiruminzuu (Riko), Yutori-chan (Yutori-chan). 2010 Vampire Bund (Mina Tepeş), Shiki (Sunako), Samurai Girls (Juubee), Pokémon: Black and White (Iris). 2011 Madoka Magica (Madoka), Gosick (Victorique), A-Channel (Tooru), Ben-To (Hana). 2012 Symphogear (Hibiki), Kimi no Iru Machi (Rin). 2014 Pilot's Love Song (Claire/Nina), Blade & Soul (Jin Valel), Soul Eater Not!

I can't believe he's actually a boy! He doesn't look like it! My mind is still trying to convince itself he's a boy!...or is he secretly FTM (female to male transgender)? Plus his voice was kinda weird (albeit brief). I do hope to see more of him though. He's so cute nonetheless! Plus the music was just perfect for this series.
