Yeah, Hulu actually has a surprising amount of anime on it, but I don't really hear it mentioned much as an option.
Episode 2
Mako owns
Her family owns
But nothing compares to the greatness of the utterly fabulous mix of Akio and Hosaka that is SENSEI
That part made no sense, but I loved it. Especially quick transformation back into dork teacher.
Mako <3

The episode was great, I'm loving the comedy. Mako ftw.
Just finished watching episode 2.
This shit is so stupid and rediculous, I fucking love every moment of it.
I lost my shit at Mako's house, the music, the family and then I nearly fucking choked when that fucking dog just bust through the door in the hoodie looking like some funky ass butt.
Only 2 episodes and it's already surpassed my expectations.
I need a gif of that dog.

Boy, this music is dreadful. 2nd episode was still a bit amusing though.
Indeed. It reminds me again how it's too bad there will never be another true Coachie.

The score is great. The themes are pretty bad though, yeah.
One of the side effects of this show is making me want to marathon all of gunbuster and daibuster again. But Daibuster is my favorite mech anime, so that's not saying much.

I cannot keep myself from beaming the entire time I'm watching this show.
I know style and subversion aren't really a substitute for substance, but this show makes me believe it can be.
As a fan giant fan of TTGL (probably my favorite anime) should I watch any more of this guy's work?

I'm not sure if Imaishi had anything to do with it, but FLCL is pretty great and shares some themes with TTGL (wacky mech-related coming of age with phallic symbols everywhere). The other Imaishi shows I know of are Dead Leaves and Panty & Stocking. Haven't watched Dead Leaves, I like P&S, but it's reeeeeally polarizing.

The tennis gags left me in fucking stitches. Mako's family is also amazing.
But the winner here is sexy teacher. Come on TRIGGER. Put him in a car and call it a day.
<3
That tennis match was all sorts of amazing.

Satsuki > *
This may have been my favorite shot from the whole episode. Show continues to be glorious, and Satsuki is badass
Hoodie Pug is my new favorite character.
I just noticed that for some reason they had perfect looking drumsticks in the trash XD
Kotaku did just a write up on this not because of the outfit or fanservice but because of the few seconds that she pulls the thing on her wrist in order to activate the outfit, because it's considered wrist slitting.
Kotaku will make a big deal about anything to get views, please don't support them. I'm sure they were equally pissed when Persona characters shoot themselves to transform.
Wasn't that the food the dog was meant to be eating?
I haven't been able to get past episode 2 after 3 or 4 tries. Maybe I should just push through. I didn't like the fan service stuff.
lol
Were they also bothered by the finger biting in Attack on Titan? This is pretty much the same thing

Ding ding ding!
I really want to enjoy this - I love the character design and the crazy pace and style - but the fanservice and perversion goes way too far and is ruining my enjoyment of the series.
The 'battle uniform' is terrible and the lewdness is just crass and not funny at all. The first episode was a bit bad for it, but the entire second episode is ten times worse, and if it carries on I don't think I'll carry on watching. Really disappointing.

Yep, it is from the guy who called Sword Art Online the smartest anime in years, and it was only half over. The Universe could not have set up a better punchline then that.
The real punchline is that each time 4chan, MAL, and every other place links his articles to mock them, Kotaku probably gets more page clicks than any article they actually put proper journalistic effort into. With ad-driven internet business being what it is, it is people like him who really know how to keep a site going.
Life does like its irony.
I sort of had an issue with the pandering in the first episode, but now I'm totally fine with it because it's SO over the top and, more importantly, equal opportunity. It's clearly meant to be ridiculous, so I'm completely on board with that.
Another fantastic episode, keeping up the pace and humor of the first. I really hope it doesn't burn itself out if this pace keeps up for the entire season.
As good as the episode was, I still felt that the sensei scene was pretty much unneeded outside of the info about the kamui he gave Ryuuko. I get the reference and enjoy the humor and parody of it, but I'm hoping that all of this ridiculousness somehow fits into the overall world and story.
You are probably on to something here.

He was meant to find food on his own outside, but jumped back into the house.
Might be just me, but I think the first handful of episodes of that show are some of the best in the series, so if you didn't like those I don't think you'd like the rest of the show.

Kotaku also thought SAO was the most intelligently written anime in a decade.
You know that simpson episode in which homer a a little card that says "Always do the opposite of what Bart says"? You'll get pretty far if you apply that to Kotaku.
Kotaku is a click baiting rag, but I have to admit, that's a hilarious complaint that I never would have thought someone could make in a million years. I expected the inevitable "Why is this so fanservicey; How dare they" article, but complaining about blood being the source of power for the outfit and comparing that to slitting ones wrists? Wowwww.
I...cannot facepalm harder than I just did.
Gotta say, they have a fox news level of originality when it comes to getting upset about things that don't matter and were never issues before they made it one.

Episode 2 was pretty "meh" to me. I wasn't bored or anything like that, but it failed to suck me in. I was really hoping the fanservice would be toned down a bit from the first episode...instead it got ratcheted up a notch; I guess this is something I'm going to have to get used to unfortunately. I can see KLK getting extremely stale if they follow the "bad guy of the week" formula the series seems to be setting itself up for, hopefully they switch things up.
Wishing for Hideaki Anno! He needs to widen his register and also interpret dogs to improve on those voice-over skills, but I suppose that after voicing Mr. Horikoshi his cache has also went up ever since he did Miyu-Miyu long time ago. :-D
Nice CD covers for the opening and ending music singles:
