Apr 5 2010 07:22 PM What an excellent series!! and to hear we are getting a second season just doubles my excitement.
For what I though was going to be a boring kiddy summon anime, it was nothing like that! It was a parody anime that worked! and that is hard to do in my opinion.
Character design was great, their summoned beings were actually cute and not annoying. Each character was individual enough that I thoroughly enjoyed everyone's screen time equally. Well..... there could always be more Shouko!! who is my wifu.
Story was interesting and random enough to hold interest, but not so out their to feel confusing. 13 episodes in this case was great for 1 season, I want more! but will have to wait. I can do this because this anime has some really high re-watch-ability.
I really enjoyed the art work as well, from the characters, to the shaft animation feel. Reminded me of a mix of Ef, Maria Holic and Bakemonogatari both in style and direction wise, so very well done!!!!
Overall best comedy/school life series this year, and I feel it will be hard to top
10/10 in my opinion.
