I was thinking cross of Azudai and ichigo mashimaro ;p

Funny stuff nonetheless. Opening is reason enough alone to get this series ;p IOt is quite full of win, and definitely will show up in some amvs I'm sure ;p

Ahaha! Episode 2!

Keroro Gunso and Hare Hare Yukai (Suzumiya Haruhi ED) appearances FTW! Plus, there is a Gunbuster reference! And a Shuffle banner/wallscroll is shown briefly.

I love how Konata spent Golden Week. Yes, I've done that too... And I liked being able to see all of Kagami and Tsukasa's family. It's one of the things I like about these slice-of-life shows.

Wawawawa... And Akira is soooo bi-polar.

Finally, it looks like a different ending song every week. String all the EDs together and it's like one long story or episode (with the characters behind a door in a karaoke room).

Ok... the first part could have been worse, but was the second part really necessary? :?

On the other hand, ep2 was even better than ep1. A nerd couldn't be shown in a more realistic way. Konata can represent every one of us.^^

And Aya Hirano really did well, Konata's voice is awesome. I like it more, each time I hear it.

Don't forget Virtua Fighter (or Tekken) and Taiko Drum Machine (which Hare Hare Yukai is an actual song in the game).

Yeah, but they didn't have to use that song for the Taiko Drum Machine segment. I find it hilarious that Konata is playing the game with a song that she (in another life) sings. PARADOX! :P

And the bit about the cast changing for an anime from the one in the drama CDs is an obvious self-reference. Not to mention that Konata reads an issue of Comptiq which contains the Lucky☆Star 4koma! MOAR PARADOX!! :D

I agree that Aya Hirano is doing a great job as Konata. I really liked the niramekko (staring game) bit in the fast food restaurant. The sound that Konata makes when she starts the game made me laugh.

Also, I wonder how many people started watching "That Giant Robot Fighting with Drills As Weapons Anime" after Konata mentions Giant Robots that fight with drills as a weapon. ;)

You mean this one? It's already the message alert tone on my phone.;)
