(CR) Mitsudomoe

Gotta wonder if the book Hitoha is reading will be "UNCENSORED" in the DVD/Blu-ray versions. The pink glow makes it more "mysterious".

[Francismeunier]

Well they did so far pretty good with the manga adaption to anime of this. I read all one could on the internet and looks like they are moving decently in. I like the comedy and all but those triplets are definitely not identical at all. If anything the father really and seriously did not look after them too much. Some ideas about that........Hitoha and her 18 year old porn mag readings was like literally where she gets those? Hmmmmmmmm from dad's hidden stash?

Mitsuba......did she become like this because of a girl like in the OP it shows at some point or was it more due to non controlled media exposure well one thing for sure........=>

we have a animal killer born in this series! Do not give her a present of a dog or cat.....she might microwave the cat or kill somehow the dog.

Also although funny what the hell was the teacher thinking here =>

Spoiler:

I mean you do not leave the kids around for the nurse to check out your privates......especially after they would do the nasty Ryu dragon punch, play pool and the rope SM stuff with your crotch as your target. It was funny though all these parts and the chair part was mostly done good except it was better with the fight part of Futaba.

Speaking of her....I fear she might be a lesbien in the future with her breast fascination.......introduce her to a F cup and she will be like attracted to those breasts. In the ED she does sleep with something like that. I do think she has ero art potential based on her desk drawing. Well I have some GIFs in mind.....so stay tuned for that sometime soon....really soon.

Not sure about that but in general I have yet to see what they will add of ecchi extra not in the manga......so far they made Futaba's breasts stand a little more if notice that in the OP. Better watch out not to be caught watching this because I am sure my family will think I am a pedo freak for seeing this series although they do not know I watch this stuff at all.

Episode 1 was good. This seems like a really funny series. I lol'd when the other teacher heard the class have a discussion about "Nipples" lol . I'm still deciding as to weather I'll follow it weekly or not.

[Lord of Fire]

When Ichigo Mashimaro meets Kodomo no Jikan, you get this.

This episode was damn funny! Looks like this will be the funniest show for this season.

[kenjiharima]

The kids saying nipples made me laugh all the way.

This is not as ecchi as Kodomo no Jinkan, this is just right. Slap stick jokes, good comedic humor, loli's, MOE, just perfect.

Exactly! I completely forgot Ichigo Mashimaro! I completely agree with you!

[Decagon]

I think Kodomo no Jikan was a series that aimed to sexualize the girls in the series, whereas in something like this or Ichigo Mashimaro the point isn't to see how much a character's breasts stick out or what panties they are wearing (if any). Sure the gags are a bit raunchy, but it's funny and not about sticking a kid's ass in your face.

[Hypernova]

Like arakawa under the bridge the author is a women. And she's barley 3months older than I am!

A pretty good first episode. Strangely the thing that weird me out the most is the teacher exposing himself in front of his students.

You mean the nurse thing part. Yeah me too BTW.......should have said to the kids to get out but you know what? I think he is scared of them...especially Hitoha.

[FateAnomaly]

Can't blame him then, i am afraid of her too.

[quigonkenny]

I think the funniest part is watching the ED and seeing what everyone is dreaming about:

Miku Sugisaki (black hair, side ringlets, oujo-sama type) is dreaming of Mitsuba bowing to her.
Yuki Yoshioka (brown hair, giant eyebrows) is dreaming of a bishounen prince on a white horse.
Miyashita (light brown hair, side bangs, barettes, hoodie) is dreaming of playing with Hitoha (yuri flag!).
Sakiko Matsuoka (brown hair, short twintails, prayer beads) is dreaming of playing with a ghost in a graveyard.
Yuudai Chiba ("69" cap, "H" jacket) is dreaming of being fawned over by three hot chicks in various stages of undress.
Shinya Satou (dark hair, hoodie, followed around by the three "sparkly" girls) is having a nightmare of being stalked by three girls...
Airi Ogata (braids, overalls, "sparkly" girl) is dreaming of playing soccer with Shinya while the other two look on.
Mayumi Katou (brown hair, pony tail, "sparkly" girl) is dreaming of playing soccer with Shinya while the other two look on.
Shiori Itou (light brown hair, twintails, "sparkly" girl) is dreaming of playing soccer with Shinya while the other two are nowhere to be seen...
Hitoha is dreaming of being saved by a Red Power Ranger while Miyashita is blown up in the explosion.
Mitsuba is dreaming of stuffing her face at a giant table full of food.
Futaba is dreaming of hugging and fondling a confused Kuriyama-sensei's breasts...

And then there's the OP. Some highlights:

Shinya's three groupies run up to catch in their mouths and gargle the water from the splash when he dives in the pool (What do you mean it's not symbolic?).
"Cherry" is written on Yabe-cchi's shirt during the scene with the dance.
Yuudai projectile nosebleeds when Hitoha raises her hands with everyone during the dance, giving him an unobstructed view of her book (he does this all three times), and continues to have a bloody nose at all times afterwards.
Police show up and drag off the hairy fat guy in the baseball cap (his identity might be a spoiler, but it's made apparent right off in the manga).

I don't think I've ever seen a series that so quickly and successfully introduces us to all the secondary characters... ^_^

[Midonin]

The more I listen to the OP, the more I find it catchy. I also love how the sequence is animated. As I stated previously, it's rare to see an OP that attempts to synchronize its singing to the voices of the singers. Plus, it has dancing, which I haven't seen in a good while.

Ah, Gachiranger. That's shown up in neither the scanlations nor any episodes (so far), but as soon as I knew it existed, I was hooked. Forever a shameless toku fan (and show-within-a-show fan) I will be.

[Guardian Enzo]

That was like Hanamaru Kindergarten, if the girls were 12, triplets and the hell-born spawn of Satan.

In all seriousness, that sort of felt like a hybrid of Hanamaru and Kyou no go go ni, only much more foul and mean-spirited. It all goes back to that taste thing, and how very personal thing humor is. While I found the sexual humor in Seitokai flat and unfunny, I was LOLing through much of this one. it's all about the premise, for me - in Seitokai it felt like they were just throwing the words out there for shock value. Here, they were part of the farce. The entire "Nipples" sequence was almost genius.

[Freeter]

Good god, this show had me rolling from start to finish. Comedy of the year. Heck, this might even be the best new show of the season.

I wonder which company would be ballsy enough to license this

Can't speak for the anime, but the Kodomo no Jikan manga is pretty clearly a deliberate attempt to make readers uncomfortable. It's effectively saying that sexualized young girls is not a laughing matter, but instead evidence of some serious emotional problems.

Mitsudomoe on the other hand basically has some of the girls acting ranchy, but without really understanding it. Which makes it funny, since all of us have probably experienced a young kid making some kind of inappropriate comments and embarrassing all the adults.

It's like trying to compare Lolita (the novel) with My Uncle Oswald.

[Falkor]

hilarious episode... loved it.

I've been looking forward to this show the most after listening to the Drama CD. But knowing that the Minami-ke staff/team was going to be involved in Mitsudomoe added another layer of excitement to my enthusiasm.

Hitoha is my favorite character... really loved her. nice to see that Haruka Tomatsu is voicing her, because well, I love her voice, and her performance has never disappointed me. Plus, I have a soft spot for "quiet" characters. On the other hand, it's Shimono... he got the kind of funny voice that can make you laugh/smile no matter what, which works specially well for this kind of comedy. I think it's kinda nice to have these two working together on the same show again.

Though I've spoiled myself a bit with the Drama CD, it's hard to imagine that this show would be so hilarious in animated form. Loved the cute hamster scene in the Drama CD, loving it here in the anime---still works even though you see it coming. The beginning was particularly interesting and funny; I was smiling/chuckling the whole time even though I was not entirely sure of what was going on. by the way, stomping on someone's crotch was never this funny and hilarious.

The show is reminding me of Minami-ke: the comedic timing, the odd situations, the fun and innocence of the characters, the enjoyment factor; but all combined with some delicious innuendo. I wonder if they will pull out a "Sensei and Ninomiya-kun" in future episodes... :P

Kyou no go ni and Ichigo Mashimaro with some Kodomo no Jikan would be the best bet I would think.

Actually I was thinking the same as you except I would add Minami-ke in it too.

So basically it's Kyou no go ni meets Ichigo Mashimaro meets Kodomo no Jikan meets Minami-ke.

The hentai of Kodomo.
The school antics of Kyou.
The family relations of Minami.
The random gags of Ichigo.
