    Started watching Yuru-Yuri after seeing how much praise it got in here. It is rather calming to watch, but I'm not all that impressed by it. I just can't get over the fact that it wants to be K-On so bad, but doesn't quite have the same charm. I am only 3 episodes in, so I might start liking it later on, as was the case with K-On which I almost dropped after a couple of episodes.

    On a side note, I just finished Kino no Tabi which I was really impressed by. It manages to tell the stories and get the points across without being overly pretentious about it.

    Well it isnt like K-On Pioneered the cute-girls-doing-cute-things format. They just upped the quality bar for it a bit and started the latest craze.

    Thanks Synaia also episode one of Yuru Yuri was hilarious it is a little hard to keep up with a few of the readings but it is very cute and funny lol! Being a pretty manly man I have to admit this is by far one of the cutest opening songs I have ever seen. DONT QUESTION MY MASCULINITY!

    I know that, but K-On seemed to me to be the easiet one to compare it to just because how popular that franchise has become, but I'll admit I'm not the most knowledgeable on that subject. I've watched the "big three" of cute girls doing cute thing, Azumanga, Lucky Star and K-On, but not much else of that concept.

    I just recently watch K-On and liked it a lot. I am on episode 2 of Yuru Yuri and think it is just as cute if not cuter because of all the sexual innuendos. Makes it super funny!

    Well if you enjoyed those are are looking for more, I can recommend a few. Minami-ke~ very similar except follows three sisters, each in a different school so there are many more side characters.
    Hidamari SketchThis one is very close to Yuru Yuri just without the Yuri. Even the characters are very similar. Miyako = Kyouko, just a bit more dense. Yuno = Akari with more screen presence. and Sae = Yui to the letter. It is made by SHAFT so the animation does get a little funky from time to time. SHAFT likes to do things the SHAFT way...
    Bamboo BladeA little different because it adds a bit of sports anime into the mix because they are all part of the Kendo club. Even has a couple of male characters.

    There are also series like Ichigo MashimaroWhere the girls are a bit younger. Still very funny.
    And then there are the Aria series. Easily the most peaceful series I have ever seen. Not laugh out loud funny, more sit there content with a easy going grin the whole time kind of funny. My favorite series to watch after a rough day.

    I guess you could say I have a soft spot for slice-of-life...

    Haha, You are making me want to go back and rewatch the series now! Seriously though, those two are hilarious together. Wait till Himawari little sister's episode, or the Christmas date, lawl.

    Outside of Kyouko, I think the supporting cast is way better then the main cast. All the student council members are great.

    Not going to lie I have yet to watch a show with all these Yuri elements and it is absolutely hilarious so glad I watched it as my first sub lol my roomate is staring at me awkwardly every time I laugh.

    Runnin out of stuff to watch. Dunno how many series I've watched the last few months but I have 40 series on the HD for rewatches if I feel the need. That's just the ones I liked enough to save..... Maybe I should switch it up a little bit.

    I'm DL'ing Death Note, and I just finished Dl'ing When They Cry Higurashi <seen a clip of a baseball bat scene> What are some other good horror flicks? I'm not much into horror. But I think I've worn out the School life / Romance genre. Geting a bit burnt out on it too. And I still can't stand robots.. working on forcing myself through one soon maybe sometime. I'll procrastinate some more about it tomorrow.

    So ya.. Horror flicks. Go go!

    Compiled save list so far. Anything without a w is downloaded but not watched yet.

    I liked/disliked the ending. It was depressing but also very appropriate. The whole essence of the series is a sort of sense of lost wandering, like the people we meet in life come and go. Their journey together came to a close inevitably the way time causes all things to degrade. If you see Samurai Champloo, which has the same director, it has a similar theme (although less of a downer).

    @Faded Design: Uzumaki is an amazing horror manga, sadly there is no anime of it, but if you do read manga check it out. It's bizarre. Also, check out Steins;Gate, not horror but it's a very good story.
