Why must you continue to torture poor Kanna ;_;
If there was more than one female in the show we could use AnimeGAF's new universal anime watching method to conclude that it's actually a yuri.

Yeah but 50% of the time it works every time.
I would let her be my friend, since she was by far the best girl. ;_;

The only person who hurts Kanna is Kanna. Oh, and the inevitable wave of doujin artists.

Well, your assumption wouldn't disappoint me.
But the fingersex in Ep.1 is quite the argument!
I'm just as disappointed as you are.

That is pretty indisputable, I must admit.

Woah woah woah. Juri's VA is Eri Kitamura? No wonder I loved her voice so much.

Er, there's two girls in the opening credits bro.
One currently. I'm not precluding the possibility of the show eventually becoming a yuri.

This show is 111% cool when the jazz gets going. The other stuff in the episode was pretty predictable and standard. There is a pretty overwhelming number of roaming packs of thugs in this series to the point where they've become not particularly threatening.

Is it a show about a girl spending her free time with two guys in their underwear, or is it a show about one man feeding the other his popsicle? That's for you to decide.

I really like this silly show. It's overly dramatic and crazy, but it's the sort of stupid fun that just hits all the right notes for me.
I liked how Pinochle's teasing of Chieno and suggesting she let loose meant that just would let her ribbon down. I never get tired of Kaito's appreciation for the puzzles and their warmth.
Thats my favorite manga, however the anime seemed to go OOP long before I was even interested in manga and anime :/
That is sadly true. or rather, no one hurts Kanna as much Kanna herself.
Eri Kitamura was around back in those ancient days? I didn't even know, and she's one of the better voice actresses.
And wtf, you didn't realize
Juri is 100% lesbian? Were you even paying attention?

Solution: don't watch a series as it is airing.
Being given banana flavoring when you expected real bananas is still grounds for disappointment.

I really feel like the show could go either way!
This is not a rule. This is a delusion.

That was some pretty sweet music. The whole scene with them playing was executed perfectly, and it just made me smile watching and listening. Beyond that, you have some good development between the relationships of the main characters, and Kaoru's narration worked well in this episode, too. I also think the religious stuff the show touched on in this episode was pretty unexpected. It's not a subject matter that you see come up too often in these types of stories, so I'm curious to see where that will go.

I can't respond to your posts because my eyes keep veering left.
I wonder why this is happening?

Well, if what's in the pants matches the nature of the jaw.

As per last week, this show is a lot of fun to watch. There's just something really enjoyable about the look and feel of this work - it's not the sugary-rush of Tsuritama, it's a bit more mellow. The direction is still pretty solid, although I can already hear certain people complaining about the slight shaky cam. Nevertheless, a pretty nice looking show for the most part.
Although the lighting right here isn't so great:
I am slightly concerned about the story though. I am not really bothered by this being 'another highschool show' so long as it avoids being clunky and stupid - but the number of roaming gangs means that the town in this show is starting to resemble Streets of Rage. Still, the show is telegraphing that it might consider discussing something about religion, which might prove to be fairly interesting and outside the norm for these kinds of stories.
Oh, it's almost worth nothing how there's zero fanservice in this episode, besides dudes taking off their shirts. It's the classiest anime in weeks!
I think we all know where this is going - the show appears to be setting up some rather traditional plot threads, I just hope they can continue to execute the show to it's current level.
Finally, the audio folks did a great job underscoring various important scenes with appropriate music, like last week. For most shows that aren't 'action' I either don't notice background music at all or I pick up on it because it's being used poorly. That's certainly not the case with Apollon.

This town's like a great big popsicle just waiting to get sucked.

imgs and this is starting to get me interested in this anime, probably just continue to follow the write ups and watch it out of season or whenever its released on disc.
Or else KyoAni was still crying over all the money they lost on Nichijou, so they hadn't begun animating Hyouka.

It will be interessting to see how KyoAni will handle a tv anime with a real story after all the years.

On both accounts: Awaiting to entertain us all.
which is mostly their fault however. Nichijou gave KyoAni respectablity after LuckyStar perpetuated the moe meme that nearly wrecked the buisness.
