Heck, I give it better than usual marks for having a musical score that isn't one guy alone with his Yamaha keyboards.
Timing is everything in comedy!

I am so fucking pissed off at the people who animated and adapted this. Not only did they have to ruin it with horrible animation they added in REALLY shitty CGI animation and removed a lot of the conversation nuances that made the series so great read. Fuck you guys, seriously.  :wall:

But holy crap the intro sequence is one of the best ones in ages. So bloody awesome.
There's someone with serious animating vision in the studio though. You can see it through some scenes that are constructed brilliantly. It's just that the rest of the crew seems so ridiculously subpar it's like taking a Matisse and dipping it in tar and feathers.

I get Shounen Onmyouji vibes from this. Maybe I'll try watching it once it's done airing

With everything else this season I completely forgot this. x_x
Guess there's nothing to really miss out on though.

Kinda sad they decided to cut the copy natsume story. Was a lot of laughs in the manga.

Still, go Kon  ;D

Loved the opening scene. Finding it a little cheesy though.  :unsure:

Well... this show started as an action, fantasy, mystery and supernatural medley of interesting premise only to reveal itself as another magic, school and potential harem dumb cookie-cutter show.

I must hate myself because I know I'll keep watching, hoping I'm mistaken, subconsciously knowing I probably am not.
