Sorry ^_^; I should have been more clear. I was typing it in a hurry.

You know, though, seriously after reconsidering, I think this anime reminds me of a combination of Lucky Star and Azumanga Daioh.

I figured it mostly from remembering the Art Design series (CMYK reference) ... and knowing that Sora no Manimani is a new series this season too.

That and I cheated by checking my RSS for the name.

^_^; I'M SORRY!! LOL

Well, that and the fact that back on like page 49 I listed my "anime I'm interested in this season" XD

Anyways: you should prolly give it a shot, Scy, I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts. I think you'd probably be a little into it (but then, maybe not).

You would probably like Hidamari Sketch too then. It's another 4-koma based, slice of life/comedy anime set in an art school. And maybe Sketchbook ~Full Color'S~ and Mahoraba too, but I haven't seen those myself.

I read Mahoraba and it was cute. Hidamari Sketch makes me want to kill babies as it's more entertaining and humorous.

[spoiler]It's also some imagery that stays with you for days, ruining you forever.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]But seriously, I'm not a big slice of life fan and Hidamari Sketch was yawn, but I only did give it like 4 or 5 episodes. Minami-ke was funny, Lucky Star was funny, but Hidamari was just boring. Plus the art annoyed me, which I found ironic.

I'd most likely chalk it up to expecting something that I didn't get ... and not in a good way for me.[/spoiler]

And sure, I'll download it and give it a watch. Probably Ayako for this (well it's the only option) so I'll go to Ayako and ...

WHAT THE FUCK (probably NSFW)
[spoiler]

WHAT THE FUCK IS NEEDLESS ABOUT WHAT IS THIS I AM WHAT THE FUCK.

...actually, after the ED, I suppose this shouldn't surprise me.[/spoiler]

XD That's probably not what youa re thinking it is.

Aww, you aren't into slice of life? I thought you were? :\ Well, in that case, you probably wouldn't like GA.

Yeah it definitely isn't but thanks to the ED song, I can't help shake the feeling part of it is ...

[spoiler][youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U-cESWfWqtQ&translated=1[/youtube][/spoiler]

And I dunno. My "slice o' life" view very much depends on the atmosphere and what goes on. I do have a slant against it though merely because I usually don't find it that entertaining alone. To me, Hidamari Sketch is bad slice of life because it's really just that; a slice of life. There isn't much comedy, romance, or something else with it so I'm just left going "huh ... this is boring."

Pretty much, it just depends on the series if I'll like it or not, I'm just not really one to look for slice of life.

Ah ... about that. Based on the OP, they're probably villains? Maybe? It's an over-the-top MANLY GUY DOES MANLY THINGS shounen anime. You'll absolutely hate it.

And yet, it's paradoxically put together with that fucking ED which confuses me. The worst part of it all?

The song is actually catchy.

Eh, who knows. I'm following it out of some curiousness to see things die, though right now it's like 40% curious at stuff dying, 30% Eve, 20% story curious, and 10% that ED song. Though, every time it comes on I have to make sure my blinds are closed and the government isn't spying on me, lest I get a visit from Chris "WHY DON'T YOU HAVE A SEAT" Hansen.

Edit: "TODAY I'VE DECIDED TO START ART ... BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DRAW"
[spoiler]If they broke the 4th Wall more, I'll enjoy this.

THE GLASSES ARE NOT CUTE OR ADORABLE. Deadpan girl (Miyabi "Kyouju") is though so ... yeah.

OP ... *shrugs* Not really memorable to be honest.
ED is at least a more interesting song (I like fast paced stuff personally). Visually, it's boring.

Anyway ... I dunno. Not that entertaining though it has a glimmer of hope possibly somewhere eventually. Though what the hell at the little informative pictogram section that lasted forever and wasn't even interesting at all.

Eh, I didn't like Lucky Star at first so I'm willing to give it a few episodes.[/spoiler]

NEEDLESS
[spoiler]...it...it was ...

...

...

...

Anyway, that's the strangest soda ever.[/spoiler]

Edit: Nana Mizuki as Lan-Fan (FMAB) is nice. It's weird hearing Setsuna (Gundam 00) as Ling though ... the super serious is now a joker. Hah~ Well, Mamoru Miyano pulls it off well. Think he was Shou in Skip Beat too...

Anyway, FMAB, albeit a little fast, is now pretty much set on the manga story which is awesome.
