Anime catch-up time...
Sasami-san@Ganbaranai 1
I liked the Chocoslovakia pun - particularly as I went on a chocolate making course this afternoon.
Otherwise, after the frankly distasteful opening to the show and the idiotic nature of the frog girl, I thought there were a few nice ideas in the execution - the filter over Sasami's home, or the ED - drowned out by a lot of seemingly clever but actually irritating stylistic things, and otaku stuff I'm not interested in. I'm no clearer about what this show is supposed to be than I was when I started watching it, either.
Cuticle Detective Inaba 1

Is "something ridiculous happening" the same thing as a gag? I gave up five minutes in, too much mania without structure for me.
The Unlimited 1
Good effects animation - maybe close to Code:Breaker in quality - but without much in the way of atmosphere or an interesting narrative.
Vividred Operation 1
While I'm normally all for puns, I really don't like the character naming scheme in this show. All the girls are named after their colour schemes (Akane, Aoi, Momo), and from looking at Wikipedia their surnames tell you what order they'll get introduced in. Super cheesy.
Leaving aside the pervy buttshots, this is a pretty decent opening episode for a modern magical girl story. None of the characters are particularly irritating (although they're hardly original), the animation is solid, and the music helps a lot to make the show seem dramatic. I guess it remains to be seen whether it gets particularly pervy or not, or whether it has anywhere interesting to go with its storyline.
