----------------------------------------
So I guess there was yet again another rollback. I seriously have been looking forward to this show for some time now. The art and character style is absolutely top notch. I think the story is also pretty solid I remember watching another show similar to it called Green Green. The only difference was that it was an all boys school not an all girls school. I am really looking forward to the rest of the season. Great job so far.

It was really boring. Especially the first half. Took them half the show to look for the sister.

I can tell you that is going to be a slow anime like:
http://myanimelist.net/anime/670/Lamune
definitely but if you are man to ignore that slow pace and my anger towards punching Shingo for being stupid in the beginning then I guess appreciating the beauty of not only the girls but of the scenery was a success of this episode. I can tell you that my favorite is the following,

Sena Airi is amazing! Her hair and eyes are quite something. She charmed me quite well.

While I cannot deny a love for the following girl,

her with that pet of hers is quite something in beauty. That pet is totally like not Kyuubey at all. IMO he is kind of like a cupid itself.

Mentioning Kyuubey is prohibited while Laylie is around. That show destroyed me. On to the subject of Mashiroiro it will be very slow paced but honestly a lo of amazing shows are like that. Clannad was pretty slow paced up until episode 12 and look at how amazing that is. Same with Air it doesnt get good until about 8/12 so don't judge because of the slow pacing. They were after all trying to introduce the main characters.

Pretty much your generic harem shit. The sexy, cute, and very fuckable females are what's keeping me around.
As I've said before, we need some truly badass male harem leads instead of the usual generic tools who simply serve as easy self-inserts for otaku losers (not saying all otaku are losers btw).

Generic but not bad at all. The characters are very likable and the protagonist doesn't look like a wimp either. Sena seems to be a typical girl afraid of boys because she has been on a girls only school for all her life. Judging from the preview it looks like she thinks all men look at her in a weird way too. Sakuno looked like the typical shy girl but I was glad I was wrong. Her jab at that guy was pretty unexpected. =P

I think I'm gonna like this as long as it doesn't turn out to be a generic harem.

It's not like she is afraid of guys; she seems pretty okay with the protagonist when she meets him in the park. More of the fact that she's rather protective of her school or something and doesn't think there needs to be guys in it.

This anime is basically to kill time, but I really liked Sakuno, she is just too cute and adorable. Apparently no sense of direction, but still likeable and lovable.
I am a sucker for romance!!!!

I'm really setting myself up for failure here by watching this and planning to continue. But what's the point in even bothering. I know what the end result will turn out like. I'm just praying for some kind of twist or unexpected turn in events that may break my linear interest. Looking forward to the next!

nicely animated but at this point, high school romance without an appealing comedy, action or fantasy/SF setting is too much for me.

Want to continue to give it one more chance but no time right now so dropped... at least temporarily.

The endless debate between fans and haters. At one point, after spending a lot of time on MAL, you just realize it's totally pointless.

I had a such bad thoughts at the prologue concerning the color white

The troll face Sakuno made at the meeting with Hayata was awesome!

Though a bit cliché it has a great feel to it, I'm gonna continue.

I honestly didn't know what to expect from this one. I've been browsing several of the more recent anime to see if there is anything worth following regularly.

I read the synopsis and said okay this sounds familiar, might be fun, might be crap.

However, I love the scenery, If i'd known about the whole 'Sakuna Lost being found thing' I'm not sure I would have liked it, but i think it sets up an interesting conflict within some of the characters Especially Aria. The odd animal kitten thing was too cute.

The only bad part about this episode is likely something which translates better in Japan than in the states.



As for the conflict about those in favor of the integration, and those wanting no part of it, I think we know where this is going, and I like that while Aria seems to be nice when meeting them outside the school, she's completely cold to them when she finds out they are test students. I really hope that conflict comes off right, because It's clearly a central point in this Anime.


As far as opening episodes go, I rather enjoyed it, and it didn't turn me off, so, we'll see what's in store.

Pretty dam boring so far, the girls looks nice but the why does guy's faces look out of place to me. And what's with that cat thing? So is this anime supernatural? In clannad they have that retarded pig thing but the show is supernatural anyways.

The first episode was alright. Not much action but it was good to get to know the characters. For some reason the character models kinda look similar to Akane-Iro's characters and hoshizora e kakaru hashi's characters. But haha. Mashiro's females look a lot more cute. I smell harem already for Shingo. Lucky, lucky for him. Hope the ending will be sensible and not randomly picking a girl out of the blue like hoshizora's ending.

Dat dramatic ball cat... What the heck is he supposed to be? He look like a cat that would have been cut in half.

So... Is there a possible incest route..? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
I gotta go do the VN, quick!

More seriously, pretty much watching this anime because I heard he choose a girl by the end and I'm tired recently of anime that ends with a status quo. But there is one thing that I'm sure, it's that he will not choose best girl. Because harem leader never choose best girl, it is known.

Wow!
Art, especially characters looks TOTALLY AWESOME.
Seriously I don't remember when I seen that good drawn characters.

And I don't know why almost everyone thinks that it was boring. I'm not bored at all. Good start.

PS
I don't know, but I have not good translation probably. Few dialogues sounded very unnatural, and I'm pretty sure that original meaning was totally different (I'm learning Japanese, and I understand a little).

No, no no and one more time - NO. Comedy is almost always PATHETIC, action is ALWAYS boring as hell, and magic is one of the worst things in anime. I prefer it in that way like in this anime.

Really liking the character designs. Airi is really cute and Ange seems like a nice person to hang out with. First part was a bit underwhelming as it took forever to find his sister. Although I guess it had good realism momentum. Liked the first part where MC was taking his keys, turning the lights off and starting with the search. I love slow slice of life moments like that.

So they are merging male and female schools? Let's see what happens.

I wonder, if brother and sister got here recently?.. Started to live, that is.. I mean, if it'd be new place - you could get lost in it.. Or maybe not, and sister just gets lost for whatever reasons - getting distracted, being in her own thoughts, or other reasons..
Well, at least I like how calm she is.. Getting lost isn't the best thing about her personality, on the other hand.. Still, she seems like a likeable girl by temperament..
What is this?.. Lost girls party?.. ;D I kinda like this beginning, though.. A bit feely and melancholic, but also happy.. I like the feel..
It actually already looks so weird to see mobile phones which open like that - old ones.. Well, they were usable not that long ago, really.. Like certainly still in 2011, when this anime came out.. Seems like forever since I saw these phones.. And where these 10 years went?.. Maybe whole life will pass like this, who knows..
I quite like this piano music.. At 13:50 - before, and after.. Just a nice OST.. Beautiful..
Lol, this Ange girl is weirdo.. ;P In a good sense, though.. ;P
A nice first episode.. I like the feels of it.. Music, characters, drawing style.. Nice mix of drama and fun.. Overall, a very nice episode, really.. Wait for more.. ;P

Can tell where this shit is going.

Blonde love here is gonna fall for main guy.

I like the sister but I didn't think she was a brocon holy fuck.

Classic ecchi harem.

The OST here is amazing too btw. For like the first half tho. They should have made better use for it really.
