After seeing the OP for episode 4 I can't say that all anime OPs suck and I skip them all the time

I feel as though this series becomes more and more wrong and wicked with every episode. I hope it will stay that way

The last half of episode 4 was great. I love that "mail mail" sound!

God, episode 4 has so much fu**ing win! In addition it has probably the most disturbing yet awesome OP sequence ever (which by the way it finally got animated). I mean I can't think of any regular anime opening that has all of the following:

- yuri
- bondage
- detailed look of pregnancy?!

Spoiler :

This episode introduced the bandaged girl Abiru Kobushi whom other people thought she always gets abused at home. This lead the teacher to accidentally spread rumors across the shopping district for the shop owners to beware of the father that may be abusing his daughter. Of course the reason Abiru wears bandages is because she has a bad habit of pulling animal tails which led the animals to attack and injure her!

It also introduced Meru Otonashi who's your token quiet, nice girl whom the teacher took quite a liking to. Until he found out she's absolutely obsessive on sending text from her cell phone. In addition her text mostly slams and insults all the people in her class.

- The Final Fantasy-esque battle that appeared once were amusing. Though that weird exercise workout video was just creepy!

Never before a school slice-of-life series has this number of completely messed up girls. I love this!

Episode 5 introduced no new characters (I guess the introductions are done). Though I found the overall theme of this episode fascinating.

Spoiler :

The first half dealt with the teacher making a stern point that the students should maintain their status quo and not go over it. Kitsu got really into it especially!

Second half is an ONSEN episode (wow, already?! )

You know how hot springs tend to clean spirit within as well as the outside (I think they referred to it as detox)? Well the girls were in the hot springs, and behold they felt much happier and forgot their one-note personalities (and it's been revealed that tail-grabbing girl Abiru actually has different colored eyes). This freaked out the teacher, and then he forced his students to eat a bunch of greasy and fried foods. Their original personalities came back.

On another note, Kiri's single bath with that female teacher (damn, what was her name again?) was pretty hot! And there's Kafuka's Unlucky Channel!

Episode 5 was more fanservice orientated than I thought it would be but they made it worth while with the humor and dialog.

[angelx03]

On the contrary, it did stab on what it means to maintain a status quo which supposedly the Japanese take pretty seriously!

[Bakadeshi]

I died laughing on the stalker episode

Yet another series added to my growing to large to keep up with list >.>

Oh shit, episode 6 is out by the GOOD group!

Spoiler :

Well, well, well! The teacher Nozomu actually used to live in a wealthy atmosphere, but he ran away due to a weird ritual his family does for arranging marriages. The thing was that whoever he makes eye contact with will officially be married. Hilarity and trippy visuals ensues, and man were they entertaining!

On another, he actually has an older brother who's a doctor which in rearranging his name will actually mean Dr. Death! Good ol' Kafka!

Oh shit, episode 8 is out by the other group(s)!

Yeah, this show is awesome. Picked up on it thanks to the local anime club. Support your local anime clubs! They're awesome more often than not.
