Kodomo no Jikan.

My favourite parody of the song is the Haruhi version.

I would also like to note that this thread has been surprisingly civil, we have not had people come here saying those who like it are gross. Actually I hope that more people could use this for a reason to watch it.

Actually I think I will rewatch some episodes, I started a rewatch probably around a month or two ago, and this got me going again. I also heard a while ago that there would be another OVA or something announced.

True, but I've had the nagging thought that it still goes over the top with what can only be considered Lolicon fan service. Even knowing why Rin acts the way she does, a lot of what she does isn't necessary for developing her character or the story. Some of the stuff is really difficult to explain away when trying to persuade someone to watch it. An open mind only goes so far.

I guess that's why the censored version is there, but even the censored version walks the line of taste.

When does anyone, real life or media, do things that are just "necessary". It is a mix doing things that just get by and doing things over the top. Is every Rin flirtation moment over the top, since I have seen all of the anime I can form an informed decision and answer No.

The mangaka is not going to shy away from tell the story the way she wants because some people have moral compasses stuck up their butts. Every show walks some line of taste for someone no matter if it is violence or sexual. This show thrives on controversy in the subject matter if you aren't comfortable with it then just move on to something else.

There is no use to talking about how loli or offensive the show is if you won't accept that there is a story behind it and that the show has some other subtle plots going on.
You have only seen one episode and have deemed the show unwatchable, bye.

Actually Arsenic, yeah, you did jump the gun when you jumped on DR.
First page, 9th post.

C'mon guys, we all enjoy this, lets not get into a war, otherwise someone'll lock this thread for certain.

I, for one, want to see where this heads.

......plus, it beats the heck out of the trainwreck that's known as the "Will You Miss the English Dubs" thread that's gone wayyyy off topic, and is nothing but shouting now.

Fixed to more of a generic approach.
I have been in the thread before and today I missed the comment about him completing the series.

DR, I read that posting in the ANN news section, and to me , it was rather vague about just what was getting released. Is it dvd? Is it another volume of the manga? I'd settle for either really.

The OVAs so far are usually considered the "second season". It would be nice to see what direction the series could go. So many possibilities, not just regarding Rin either.

Then again, i'm still a big fan of Kuro, and the "crush" she had in the OVA's was really well handled.

Yep! I can play anime tunes while working. I love my job!

Regarding the letdown regarding the theme songs, post-1st series
