10 was defnitely an oops we ran out of content for a 13 ep series if you ask me. Just glad they decided to go with 12.

11 is WTF and cliffhanger (in as much as the series can do a cliffhanger). Glad I waited to get 12 first before watching 10-12.

12 is more of a wtf lower case ep.

I am going to coin a phrase here now. Akikan did a Kannagi. Kannagi was another show were you watch a series that seems to lack direction and purpose and then bam last two eps they suddenly decide to make a splashy ending. Granted the ending of Kannagi was more epic.

Over all, I liked the show for it's weirdness, but it kinda goes limp over all. I will likely be proven wrong, but hell I can't see this going dvd, so you might as well enjoy it as a sub.
Anime, one of the few things about the internet that doesn't make me hate the internet.

Meh, I know that the main appeal of the show was Jun Fukuyama playing an extravagant pervert and Otoya showing up to steal all the attention, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it, save episode 10. I'm keeping this show for the unforgettably hilarious moments and the ridiculous facial expressions.

Finally finished this and the things I liked are the multiple ends passed like episode 8 (out of 12... lol but w/e) reminded me more of Lucky Star rather than the excellant Sakura Wars OVA2 ones as each one used the same material, but different lyrics and tune. Not sure if LS used the same scenes in that one, but that was just really LAME. Still it kept my anticipation up for an extra few minutes of watch (don't usually watch the ed). Also ADORE the little one's voice acting. Though a voice like that is annoying in large doses lol. It's like a Fuko-chan (Clannad, jp anime) voice.
If you do not think so... you will DIE

the broken quality is actually comical to me at least [note some scenes, they go wall-eyed, you KNOW that was an accident on bad quality lol]
