Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai! Opening (OP) - English Subbed (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNZ_MGB5CKo#ws)
High school freshman Yūta Togashi was once a "chūnibyō patient" i.e. an overly self-conscious middle schooler. He wants to bury this embarrassing past and begins a new life in high school -- unsuccessfully. His classmate Rikka Takanashi, a "current" chūnibyō patient, has found traces of residual symptoms on him and used the fact to force Togashi "making a contract" with her.
this anime is made by Kyoto animation (Nichijou, K-On!, Lucky Star). so far 3 episodes have been subbed. at first i was skeptical - the pilot introduces Yuta and Rikka, and at first Rikka seems annoying but she's developing into a more interesting and likeable character.
it is a bit moe but i haven't seen too many animes like it so i don't find it annoying. so far i'm enjoying it most for the humor and animation. i have no idea where it's going but that should be the fun!

Yupp, that was basically reason enough for me to start watching it. It was actually recommended to my by my Japanese flatmate and while it hasn't been exceptional so far, I like the ideas as well as the slapstick elements and the animation is great as always.

I actually had hoped that someone would make a compilation like this :D I approve!
I think someone made that video loop so it went for 4 hours or something

whoa... this is the gayest thing I have seen today. But at least, FOR FUCKING ONCE, it is a live action parody (of an anime) which is NOT part of a porno.

Is it just me or is the animation of the skirts terrible?
And, more importantly, should I feel bad for watching that whole sequence like 20 times, trying to check their panties?
Saw the first episode of S2 and loved it. Those rotations in the OP are so cool.

new girl is going to be a huge bitch, bigger than Nibutani before she ended up being friends with everyone. of course, she'll probably end up friends with all of them in the end, but she's going to do something really bitchy first. hell, she already did. nothing like passive aggressive advances at the dinner table!

this kinda felt like a filler ep. but it was very good nonetheless

now is the perfect time for new girl to come and ruin everything
Yeah, fuck... I hope this doesn't become another harem thing with next to no progress or character development...
a harem? i doubt it. this is actually the biggest leap in progress of rikka and yuuta's relationship in the 10 months or so they've been dating. i was getting kind of tired of their cripplingly shy and awkward feelings towards eachother.

It certainly is! But that's exactly why I am so sceptical. A pouring rainfall is usually followed by sunshine, but unfortunately the same phenomenon also works the other way around. And what would be a better way of doing that than giving the former love interest of the male lead a bigger role? She is listed as a protagonist of season 2 on several websites after all and so far she hasn't had much screentime.
I mean, we're all guys! Who doesn't know that? You're about to get your dick wet with with this bitch when suddenly love interest number two and three enter the scene for no apparent reason and shit gets interrupted in one of these super embarrassing and super funny ways. That is the very essence of the genre. The very essence of daily live for every normal run-of-the-mill 16 year old japanese high school student boy.
My prediction for the next episode is that they do not perform oral sex on each other.
Over and out.
if you remember in s1, the main conflict of the story didn't develop until the 2nd half. i've been anticipating it will be that way since the beginning. that's why i said that now is the perfect time for the new girl to come ruin everything, because rikka and yuuta have just made a huge leap forward. now they will have their relationship tested again.
It finally looks like this show has started to get interesting again. Episode 10 was pretty nice and it finally feels like the conflict is developing. The previous couple of episodes were a tad boring so I can see why there have been no posts in the past weeks, but right now they actually managed to create some feels once again. Anyone else still watching this?
yes i am still watching it. as usual they waited way too long to start the main plot but it's slice of life at heart so i won't fault it too much. but they don't have much time to resolve this now that they've started it.
i hope you do realise this is kind of faggoty

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Ok, nevermind that previous comment... it was a pretty cute and entertaining final episode. Especially for something that gets featured on Sankaku for showing skin, but I should've known that something like that wouldn't be the main feature of a final episode by KyoAni.
Then again, damn you KyoAni! They never let it end with the eagerly anticipated kiss for some retarded reason... (excluding very few exceptions) It's like a goddamn innocent cocktease!
Still, amazingly well directed. They really know how to create a certain mood. Good final episode, albeit not by far as good as that of season 1, which had a certain powerful vibe and a nice message.
All in all, this season was rather mediocre, though. While some episodes were really well done (mainly the ones focussing on the relationship of the protagonists), others were completely meaningless to the main plot and just not as entertaining as others (such as the sleep contest or the beach episode). Still, it was enjoyable.
