WOW

I rarely write reviews but when I have to, I do.

This show is amazing since the beginning. Lately I've been watching a lot of anime and I've found amazing stuff, last week I stumbled upon Kobayashi-san chi no Maid Dragon and I couldn't stop watching it, so I asked around my friends who know more about anime and one told me about this piece of gold show. He showed me a couple of youtube clips and I was amazed. So I wen't straight to it and I was hooked so badly, I watched 13 episodes in a row.

I don't even know how to start talking about what I watched, at the beginning it gave me the impression that it was going to be a "Funky Forest" experience, with all the clips unrelated and all the craziness going on, but the story starts to shape from the pieces and it's done with mastery. The writing and timing of the story it's life-like and perfect so you can just dig into the show slowly until you totally love it.

The animation is amazing too, I love how they have all the references to everything that's been drawn, I laughed at a Tintin reference that is so funny and subtle at the same time that I had to pause that episode. There are some cuts that are mere poetry (and the good kind too), all the dreamy parts are amazing, and the action scenes are so full of movement it's incredible, the constant contrast between the ordinary and the extraordinary are very well done.

I just enjoyed how every character is developed, how real the girls feel like, how the animal's personalities are portrayed, and the interactions between character are very cautiously set together, that the show feels so real no matter how crazy the situations in it are developing.

It's divided in two parts and the second one becomes a little more serious than the first one, it's when everything starts making sense (in a way) and it takes a little more intelligence (I think) to understand what's going on and put the pieces together, and if the first part was amazing, the second one is just filled with miracles and it's built perfectly that when the last episode comes, it's joy coming out of the viewer's mind.

It's filled with running gags, great music and catchy songs, and so full of happiness that looks simple, but it's made with pure genius, I love how this was made. It is a must watch,

I didn't know nothing about Kyoto Animation but with this show in their history, I'm going to watch everything they've ever done. And I need the manga this show is based on, immediately

11 out of 5 stars, this is amazing and I can't believe I'm alive and watching this, I am so grateful right now with everyone involved in this, my heart pounds like a stampede... calm down my cowboy, Bill Watts!

Slightly overrated because there is no interesting story to follow.

Slightly less than gintama level comedy. And i want season 2 of this.

This anime is literally "comedy gold" and "slice of live gold" if that makes any sense

The way that every single episode not only brings something new as in "story/jokes/humor/ect", it also never fails to be funny and out of the top,

It's not to point where you'd be real confused and braindead because of how "over" the anime is "if that makes sense"

It's at that level where it's "over" and "out of the top" yet you can still comprehend everything and laugh along, it's brilliant!!

I can go on and on about how good the show is in general, but I'll keep it simple,

It's funny it's out of the top it's gold and lots more,

Sadly it didn't get a second season but with words that the manga is gonna come back I have high hopes for a second season, hopefully they'll keep the second season the same as the original, as in they'll keep the same humor and stuff,

But yeah if you asked me if I recommend you this anime I 100% recommend it.

Bought it on Blu-ray as I love a good slice-of-life anime, and I heard that it was like Azumanga Daioh, which I loved... for some reason.

For a few episodes I was worried I wasn't going to like it as much as I thought, as at first I didn't find it that funny and it seemed a bit childish, but no, I ended up loving it.

There were many times I laughed out loud, the humour was surreal as hell, the characters were cool, and the whole thing was very entertaining as well as beautifully animated. And while it may seem like it at first, it's definitely not a kids show.

I'd recommend it, but it might be a bit weird at first to people who aren't familiar with anime.
