| I expected to see something related to glass, but instead I got chickens... At times I felt like they are trying to save some money (still moving scenes), and at other scenes the animation was just gorgeous... I dunno, it was rather dull and forgettable. I already forgot all of the character names except for David (and Yuki I think). edit: wait.. what? his name isn't actually david? darn those subs.. |

| I saw the whole episode, I understand Japanese but I still had no idea where this show was going - and neither were any of the Japanese watchers based on the niconico comments I saw. ಠ_ಠ |
| The tension at the end, I didn't get it. Ahh just when I thought there won't be any love polygon because there were 3 guys and 3 girls, how foolish of me. I don't really like Ohsaka Ryouta doing character like the main, but well. Eyecandy animation? Not really, it's not on par with the best animated series from PA Works. |
| Wow the OSTs were good. This anime seems promising. I hope it turns out well. |
| Loved the scenery, everything was beautiful. This feels like its gonna have heavy drama and romance for some reason, well, im just glad the slice of life tag is there. |
 |
| Sachi is so adorable. I really like Hachi, too. I think those two will be my favorites. This episode was a great intro. The OP was so relaxing and amazing. I have a feeling this is going to be in my top 3 of the season. Excited for next week's episode! |
| OK I have no iadea what will this trun into after watching the first ep |
| Was pretty meh to be honest. Not PA's animation at its best either and the characters aren't super likeable. |
| That was a very wierd 1st episode. To sum it up : Touko saves the roosters from a mysterious transfer student. It's rather difficult to jugde this episode but I loved the ED, the OST and pretty animation. I hope I'll like the charatcers and drama, because they will determine if I'll enjoy this anime or not. |
 |
| I am confused, maybe because I was hyping myself for this way too much (something one should never do !!) . but anyway, I felt sort of lost and I didn't understand most of what's going on . the animation was pretty good but it also wasn't one of P.A.Works best works. In the end, I can't say much after the first episode but I will definitely keep watching and hoping for the best ! |
| Need More DESUUUU~~~ My Anime List |
| I'm liking it so far. Seriously, David is like Tsumugu and main girl is like Manaka |
| pew pew pew |
| Gorgeous visuals, but that's about it for now. Not sure what to say about that whole chicken ethics talk lol........ Seemed really random. Also I don't get the ending. Why so much hostility from everyone. precious said: I expected to see something related to glass, but instead I got chickens...

She only said David because she thought he looked like David (Michelangelo) when she saw him at the school lol. |

| The artwork reminds me of True Tears.. it's beautiful as expected from PA Works. The OP is quite nice too.. definitely had a summery feeling to it. First episode is quite bland though. Nothing really stood out except for the chicken and the (already) irritating main male lead. At my most optimistic hope this will be the next AnoHana but at worst it could be another cheap hexagonal love drama like Nagi Asu with inconclusive ending/pairing. |
 |
| The sceneries are beautiful, the characters plain-looking but cute, and nice atmosphere... I didn't really get this episode though. What did chickens have to do with "Fireworks"? If P.A. Works wants to tell me "Because fuck you, that's why" I'm fine with that. But I just felt like the chickens had literally no point in this episode. The MC (I think) Touko learns that she always thought she knew what's best for the chickens, but she didn't. And that's about it. I didn't think it warranted at least 10 minutes of the episode when the more important issue at hand is what exact same thing Okikura "saw" with Touko. Title literally should have been "Chickens" |
| Time to see if this show is worth watching! I can tell that the art is really good, but the CG parts were bad (if that's what those were). So we've 3 guys and 3 girls, that's a promising start, if it has romance we can have exact pairs (unless more appeared and I didn't notice them). Kakeru "That girl's mine!" is what he probably thought XD. Aha, Yukinari probably likes Touko and Yanagi seems to like Yukinari, seems like things will be harder than I had initially thought. Hiro likes Sachi... geez lol... And of course, Kakeru x Touko! Kakeru's gonna eat yo chickens! You better hide yo chickens! XD Hmmm, I really liked this first episode and I really can't wait to see how things will develop (hopefully nothing too cliche). |
| "Let justice be done, though the heavens fall." |
| The first episode was a little odd... I thought Okikura was a bit on the creepy side ^-^' Sporadic feels throughout the whole episode and adorbs scenery. Reminds me of Toradora. Very kawaii <3 |
| Notice me Senpai |
| Visuals are great but other than that pretty meh first episode. I was bored. |
| Nice episode and i think i would keep watching it. I'm sure there gonna be some love triangle in it especially the 2 guys for Tsuko and ship the other guy with Sachi |
| Was kind of boring, this clearly is a slow cooking anime. There was some seeds planted with some tension but nothing out of the ordinary except everyone having to take care of chickens. Hopefully some of the seeds will sprout next episode. |
  |
| watched the PV a week ago, so i knew to expect something like nagi, but my god, this much like nagi? Kakeru - Tsumugu Touko - Manaka Yukinari - Hikari Hiro - Kaname Yanagi - Chisaki Sachi - Miuna (initial impression up until the opening was wrong, had the hikari an kaname switched) Yanagi -> Yukinari Yukinari -> Touko Touko -> Kakeru Sachi -> Touko/Yukinari? Hiro -> Sachi was following it till the end there, couldnt tell if sachi got angry cuz yukinari was, or for the same reason he was |
 |
| Ugh, I really don't like Okikura's type of character. I don't understand the appeal of the handsome boy who spouts random philosophical nonsense with no emotion and silently stares at the main girl like a psychopath. I just hope he is more than that as the series progresses. |
Ajunky said: Zeally said: Who the hell is David Davinci? (even the spelling makes me shudder)She only said David because she thought he looked like David Davinci when she saw him at the school lol. woops LOL i met to say the sculpture David. Brain fart |
| That opening sequence was gorgeous! I really liked it and already want the next episode. The only character I find annoying is the bossy girl with the bow. Poor transfer student, people are already getting rude with him. Even pairings seem like it will avoid the unrequited love drama. I hope so anyway! |
 |
| Beautiful animation. Adorable character designs. Unique, varied BGM. And great, pleasant OP. What's there to dislike, at least so far? There's not much depth to the characters yet, and I have a feeling I'll need a few episodes to really know each character's name and personality, considering there's six in the main group of friends. Totally predicting a love triangle between Touko, David, and the guy who "does anything she says." So...even if this ends up being pointless drama with meh development, I'd still enjoy it because of all its charming qualities. Can't wait for next week! I usually wear my hair like Touko (half up, half down), and mine's long too. That's nice, because I usually don't see myself in anime hairstyles. XD  Even though he's not as hot as David, I have a feeling he'll be my favorite. I love those protective childhood friend types. ;) |
| I want to know if there's a reason why Sachi looked so angry. She seems like a good girl (more the quiet type) and Kakeru's sentence: ''I expected there to be guys, but...'' made me wonder if they are somehow related because eye and hair colour look similar. The friends forever scene and Touko saying : ''I hope my future self will fix it'' made it clear for me that Kakeru will cause trouble ;D. So as a fan of NnA I really like the first episode because the incoming drama is already noticeable and the vibe is kinda the same. |
| Days need to be longer. 24 hours isn't enough ... |
| Jonathan promse me you'll live! Promise me! We can't live without you! Well, there's something going on with half of the characters, I'm waiting for more development of them on later épisodes. |
pakoko said: What did chickens have to do with "Fireworks"? If P.A. Works wants to tell me "Because fuck you, that's why" I'm fine with that. But I just felt like the chickens had literally no point in this episode. I don't know if I interpret too much , but Kakeru's angry stare ,him saying 'That's because they don't have enough options', 'What about other than cats?' and later saying 'I thought they could fly away' kinda implied that he wants to be free (at last that's how I understood it). I guess he and Touko have a special ability (maybe see the future or so?), but he isn't happy about it. Like I said maybe I am wrong, but I hope that there's some meaning behind the chicken scene. |
| Days need to be longer. 24 hours isn't enough ... |
| Idk what to think about this okikura guy... |
 |
| This looks like one of those "healing" animes. ( iyashikei / 癒し系 ). See here for a list of other anime series of this genre: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Iyashikei |

XD should have paid more attention, my bad |
| Interesting start looking forward for upcoming episodes of it. |
| Beautiful visuals and a relaxing atmosphere, as expected as always from PA Works. Hmm this doesn't feel too much like NagiAsu unless you're talking about the impending love polygon, plus the outsider of the group being a stoic guy. Okikura is so mysterious already, because of what he saw that Touko saw. He's obviously interested in Touko's ability? But anyways, the atmosphere reminds me more of Tari Tari. Haha chickens! Reminds me a little of Nagoya from Tonari no Kaibutsu-kun. Wonder what's up with Sachi and Yuki. Didn't expect them to react like that at all to Okikura. I can see Yuki going into to rival mode, but Sachi? Sachi seems like she would be my favorite female character in this one. I wonder what they mean when they'll try going somewhere where Sachi can go. After all, she wasn't able to go to the festival? Anyways, this was good for an intro episode. We got to see a glimpse of everyone's personality, and what our main MC's (Touko) life is like. |
| Beautiful hanabi, will update while watching. It's my first second SoL so I don't have high expectations but since it's airing I can watch it easily 1/week without dropping. Touko looks quite nice. Not much happened, but it was not bad. 3/5 |

| Interesting start. I am looking forward to next episode. ED was really cute. |
 |
| not bad looking forward to next episode |
✘ Flying without feathers is not easy; my wings have no feathers ✘    |
| oh god dammit it's another Nagi no Love Dodecahedron |
| Don't forget. Always, somewhere, someone is fighting for you. As long as you remember her, you are not alone. |
| first anime that I'm watching in this season, and already quite liked the first episode, the character design is very good, I liked the animation style and mostly liked the soundtrack, very good the use of classical music I was very curious about the plot of the series, the air of mystery in this episode was engaging, merely introduced the characters, but it was possible to establish a relationship between them I think the series has a lot of potential .. |
  |
| It was okay. If it wasn't an airing anime, it'd probably go on my On-Hold/Dropped list to never be touched again, but we'll see what happens next week. The art and animation were amazing though. xD |
| The animation was more juddery than I expected but the artwork is still as expected. |
| This went on so smoothly I didn't even realize the episode finished. Very nice, as a start it was nicely done. About the visuals there were spent too many words about, so I have nothing to add (to positive comments). It seems that the glass is more of a really secondary thing, some background element more or less presented and more or less explicit, I got this particolar vibe from this episode. There's too much talking about supernatural elements like future predicting on this, so maybe the glass is a metaphorical element of the transparence of the future for Touko. Other than her being a glass artisan obviously. The characters seems all interesting, but one weak note regarding Touko has to be done.. I don't see too many development possibilities for her. She seems the average teenage girl soft-headed who has ambitions and a peaceful personalities, and that maybe good, especially in this period when we're used to those Lolis and those extravagant sick tsunderes but.. That's it. Well, it's just one episode, so it's wise to not do rashed statements. I don't know if I'm liking Kakeru up to know, If I have to be honest. Surely there's something about him and Touko, maybe it has precisely to do with clairvoyance.. Let's see. And I can sense why the group stands against him. The guy loves Touko, so sees Kakeru as a rival , consequently the other girl (which I like pretty much) is angry at him because he awakened the jealousy on the guy she loves. I don't get why the bookworm is angry at him though. But, 4/5. I can't wait for the next week. |
| Teenage angst and chickens... This is going to be terrible. |

Duri1n said: I've got mixed feelings about this one... The animation looked amazig for some scenes, but then there was this one noticeably long still frame that kinda put me off... Oh I know what you mean. There was one that was really long, but there were also a few other still frames that were noticeable too. Hopefully there won't any be more those, or limit to like one per episode or something so that I won't be noticing them so much :P |
| Don't know about this one it all seemed a bit to random to me. It felt like it was all over the place and nothing seemed connected, it was a bit of a mess. On the other hands the characters seemed interesting think Touko was a bit to playful tho, not sure of playful is the right word. More like a bit to free minded making decisions in the moment. But with parent's like that her personality isn't out of place. What i wondered about most is the hostile personality against the transfer student, not from the guy he is just jealous but from the girl with the glasses. Or was that against Touko? |
| Welp. Looks like all the girls see him as pretty cute/hot, aka the new Transfer student. Them expressions were pretty cute. The show felt pretty relaxing. |
