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.

Nichijou is, without a single doubt, one of the best slice of life made in the long history of slice of life.
Its action-packed over-exaggerations of everyday life will undoubtedly keep all audiences in the edge of their seats, not knowing what sort of crazy antic will the show pull off right in front of them, be it a rigged carnival game, a deer attack or even an atomic bomb.
The story itself is seemingly simple; it follows the daily life of fellow classmates Yukko, Mio and Mai, paralleled by the (not so) peaceful Shinonome household. While the main characters are undoubtedly robust, the show also brings a variety of supporting characters, all equally unique and lovable to an extensive degree.
Many of the gags are easily understandable and fun to laugh at, though there are some jokes that rely heavily on the knowledge of Japanese culture (most notably the 'Helvetica Standard' segments). Though its intense energy in its presentation would surely give you a good chuckle regardless, even if the references don't exactly make sense immediately.
The animation and voice acting further increases the level of intensity that Nichijou has to offer, with each frame giving the biggest impact, along with every voice lines being delivered with utmost passion from each voice actors.
Overall, if you are a fan of slice of life, comedy, anime or even just a random passerby, Nichijou is an absolute recommendation, which will guarantee you, in the best scenario, an abundance of laughter and heartfelt joy, while in the worst case scenario, a few chuckle.

This was the one of first anime I ever seen. I am gonna sound like a fanboy but this show has everything.
When I watched this I couldn't stop watching it, I watched all 26 episodes in 3 days. I'm watching it again right now just because I think the show is a lot of fun to watch.
This show has great ratings for a reason, watch it and you will know why, the main characters have a very strong personality to them, the storyline is amazing, overall great story.
I recommend this to anyone who enjoys watching comedy, more specific, slapstick comedy but I think anyone who gives this anime a try will love it.

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!

I throughly enjoyed watching Nichijou so much that i just finished it for the second time. After the first watch i read all the available Manga. The characters are very vibrant and memorable. There are a lot of moments when i just found myself smiling. The music for opening and closing are well picked, it will cheer you up if your down. You will see a lot of hilarious moments, awesome series wish it got more noticed. If you like shows like Gintama, Arakawa under the bridge, or Senyu you will enjoy this. Im sure i will watch again in the future. At times the jokes can be corny or hard to understand but i believe that was to add to the cuteness. The art is very nicely done, i wish there were more episodes to watch.
