Actually, comparing it to Lucky Star is interesting. I watched this one first -- in fact, it's one of the first anime shows I watched knowing it was anime -- and I definitely notice Lucky Star moving at a faster pace. Is one better than the other for it? I don't know; the reader above watched LS first and thought AD moved slowly, while I watched AD first and felt at first that LS moved a little fast.

It may simply be a matter of taste, or just getting used to it.

I prefer AD over LS. One of the reasons is the slower pace.

As for Kimura, he's one of the funniest characters in the show IMHO.

I respect your opinion as long as you respect mine.

Wow, so it turns out that while wierd, Kimura is not actually a bad person.
On a side note, how the hell did any of them get hired in the first place?

He became a teacher cuz of high school girls and stuff.

Me: "What what what what what."

"Boob sizes - American = Large, Japanese = Small."

I mean okay.

That male teacher: "ding dong... ding dong ding dong"

...What. I... what. A bit perverted, yo lmao

Kimura-sensei is so weird. It's creepy af. Sorry, dude, but what.

Osaka stretching at the pool is literally me lmao.

HAhaha okay him getting locked out from the pool for insulting the PE teacher was the funniest shit, great pay off.

Alright, this Kimura-sensei is a good contrast to the cast even if he's so downright weird haha.

Goodness gracious, that caught me offguard. I knew of his gimmick beforehand, but I didn't think the show would just proudly exclaim it within the first few minutes of the episode.

Anyways, the Tomo/Koyomi comedy duo is hilarious. Chiyo bullying is hilarious. Osaka is hilarious. Minamo vs. Yukari antics are hilarious. Sakaki + cats is hilarious. And now, Kimura being awkward is hilarious. I think my favorite moment was when Minamo and Yukari were racing and you could barely see him in the background still staring into the pool in distraught (?). I don't know how this show manages to do it, as it's been a long time since a comedy has gotten to me like this, but I'm really enjoying Azumanga Daioh.

this pool episode didn’t make me feel like a weirdo, ie it didn’t contain an obnoxious amount of fan service. “we have an american among us” lmao

tomo is beginning to be my favorite character. i love her gab. i remember a family friend showing me this anime back in the early 2000s. i thought sakaki was cool with her demeanor.

The professor is a bit creepy. I don't think you'd get away with this line in 2019.

With the arrival of Kimura, the professor, the narrative becomes even more bizarre and amusing as a result, but the narrative indirectly describes the characters and their character even more accurately.

P.S. I also see a basic message, reading between the lines.

A swimming class gone into a havoc. "Double Chop!" was my best there. That Kimura sensei really had a guts being a teacher, why dont fired him, lol?

Another kind act from Sakaki with much obsession to kitty, uh, such a cutie busty!

Now now, Yukari annoy me again, wth with that teacher? Only Nyanmo was normal on that group full of comedian, i am really blessed!

Ah, so Zombie Kimura-sensei is a huge perv...an honest perv, but still a creepy perv. Something is definitely going on for him not to have been kicked out of the school for that. Especially since his behaviour was so open in front of other teachers xD

Another battle between Yukari and Nyamo where Yukari completely shows herself up...and wasn't the best idea to talk bad about Nyamo when she was the one performing cramp recovery :P

Kimura-sensei is such a creep.

That pool part and the swimming contest were hilarious.

Sakaki's obsession with cat is the best thing in this show. It's so cute how she blushes, even though when she only sees a picture of the cat. I love her character so much. :3

The last part was funny when they thought Kimura-sensei had murdered someone. x3

This episode made me very uncomfortable, and I am an adult who has a fetish for high school girls. but in my opinion it's one thing to keep your fetish to yourself and quite another to harass girls and make them feel uncomfortable. anyway i'm watching it too with a 2022 western look and this is an anime from 20 years ago..

kimura chad.

Livin the life.

He is a sigma male through and through


"If you do what you LOVE, you'll never work a day in your life."

nyamo deserved that tbh


kimura's a better man than any of them will ever be.
RESPECT.

Without change,we end up becoming the very person we hate.


I was dead until the moment I met you. I was a powerless corpse pretending to be alive. Living without power, without the ability to change my course, was bound to lead me to a slow death.

Dude, Kimura is genuinely disturbing and completely destroyed the fun I was having. His character was created a long time ago, but people still look at this authority figure ogling teenage students and go 'haha sexual harassment lol'.

The boys crying because of what Kimura said. DISGUST. 

Them pointing out only American girls having big tiddies. I can't.

The cat towels made Sakaki so happy. u__u

"I just have to become a dead body" sound logic.
