I watched episode 01 on Saturday night and a bit of episode 02 didn't get to finish it off but I did just now.
Episode 01 was a very good opening for a series that I wasn't all giddy about from the beginning. It was your regular harem introduction but how they executed the direction in this series made it enjoyable for me and seemed fresh.......I really thought that it would reek of the same old re-used hashed crap but it didn't, it smelt winter fresh.
Episode 02 was decent introduing Shizuku the loli and ended with telling us that the next episode would properly introduce the busty blonde maid.
I like this series and this could possibly have a 2nd season considering the amount of material there is and the fact that the current 1st season will
ONLY be 12 episodes.
This will be another series that I will follow and lectures at uni begin tomorrow....I've got a busy year ahead of me.
EDIT:
OH CRAP.......I forgot to mention that Yuuta flipping sounds and freaking acts like Makoto (I know they have the same seiyuu) and that pervy friend of his is like Taisuke Sawanaga of School Days. I don't remember which episode of the 2 but one of the lines has Yuuto saying "don't call me stupid" and I remember vividly that exact line and the tone that was used.........is EXACTLY the SAME as how its said in School Days.
I would have to agree to many other ppl in other boards that Daisuke Hirakawa, Yuuta's seiyuu
RUINED Omamori Himari for me.
Brace yourselves...........this guy will be in the upcoming anime,
Starry☆Sky
I really like the series but just that his voice is of the main character...does put me off and pretty much whenever he spoke in the anime......it directly linked to School Days.....the matter is worse for me because about a month ago, I watched the last episode of School Days.......I watched the entire series as it aired except for the delayed finale......I did kinda watched the finale but I pretty much skimmed through the last episode to see the conclusive deaths and nice boat ending.
On the other hand....Himari.....needs to sound like someone else because that voice should ONLY be for
*MY* Holo-chan.
