    I didn’t expect to like this as much as I did, but it’s one of my top 2 so far for the season (the other being the new Uma Musume; they both have good slice-of-life elements and personable characters).

      Before you declare your top 2, reminder that Lazarus’s finished version starts tomorrow (the American “simulcasters” somehow managed to screw it up and take unfinished versions of the episode)

    I think this is my favorite new show this season so far. I’m not caught up with everything at the moment to the final verdict is pending, but I have a feeling that this one will take the crown this season for me (of the new shows).

    Not sure about this one just yet. I like the idea of short stories about an ensemble cast, but there was just too much focus on Rurika and Murata. It all felt very pandery toward the current trend of waifu-who-bullies-you, which like, that’s cool for the people who are into that, but that’s not me, lol. The story about the security guards really got me, though, so I can see this ending up being a good time. It really depends on the ratio they settle on as the show goes forward. I give the premiere a mixed 3/5.

      Where did you get bullying in their interaction?

        She teases him in every interaction they have. “Bullying” might be a bit of an overstatement, but she’s in the same vein as Nagatoro and Uzaki is what I’m trying to say (and I’ve often seen people who are horny about that kind of archetype call it bullying).

          My interpretation is that she is just clumsily flirting. Nagatoro I agree 100% with you, but here I don’t get even a whiff.
