Nichijou: My Ordinary Life

This show is excellent.

Nichijou represents the pinnacle of Kyotoani's talents.

It is understandable why Nichijou has such high ratings on IMDb and other sites.

It may not have sold well but it is undoubtedly one of the greatest anime series of all time.

If you are a fan of either comedy or anime there is no reason for you to not pick this one up.

Nichijou is a delightful, relateable and hilarious show with a high production value and terrific music. Give it a watch or you'll regret it.

WOW

I rarely write reviews but when I have to, I do.

This show is amazing since the beginning. Lately I've been watching a lot of anime and I've found amazing stuff, last week I stumbled upon Kobayashi-san chi no Maid Dragon and I couldn't stop watching it, so I asked around my friends who know more about anime and one told me about this piece of gold show. He showed me a couple of youtube clips and I was amazed. So I wen't straight to it and I was hooked so badly, I watched 13 episodes in a row.

I don't even know how to start talking about what I watched, at the beginning it gave me the impression that it was going to be a "Funky Forest" experience, with all the clips unrelated and all the craziness going on, but the story starts to shape from the pieces and it's done with mastery. The writing and timing of the story it's life-like and perfect so you can just dig into the show slowly until you totally love it.

The animation is amazing too, I love how they have all the references to everything that's been drawn, I laughed at a Tintin reference that is so funny and subtle at the same time that I had to pause that episode. There are some cuts that are mere poetry (and the good kind too), all the dreamy parts are amazing, and the action scenes are so full of movement it's incredible, the constant contrast between the ordinary and the extraordinary are very well done.

I just enjoyed how every character is developed, how real the girls feel like, how the animal's personalities are portrayed, and the interactions between character are very cautiously set together, that the show feels so real no matter how crazy the situations in it are developing.

It's divided in two parts and the second one becomes a little more serious than the first one, it's when everything starts making sense (in a way) and it takes a little more intelligence (I think) to understand what's going on and put the pieces together, and if the first part was amazing, the second one is just filled with miracles and it's built perfectly that when the last episode comes, it's joy coming out of the viewer's mind.

It's filled with running gags, great music and catchy songs, and so full of happiness that looks simple, but it's made with pure genius, I love how this was made. It is a must watch,

I didn't know nothing about Kyoto Animation but with this show in their history, I'm going to watch everything they've ever done. And I need the manga this show is based on, immediately

11 out of 5 stars, this is amazing and I can't believe I'm alive and watching this, I am so grateful right now with everyone involved in this, my heart pounds like a stampede... calm down my cowboy, Bill Watts!

Slightly overrated because there is no interesting story to follow.

This anime makes The Boxtrolls' writing look good. Actually, this is the worst anime that came out in a long time. It's unbelievable how bad this anime can get. At first, you got the two group of kids and their ordinary yet unusual lives but then they have the kids meet and they expect to make the audience go "Awwww...." but it turns out to be more cutesy than cute. But I was just sitting there, yelling at the screen and cannot get past this anime.

I guess it was because it would make the anime confusing if they don't support each other but at the end, it's like the writers and directors aren't even trying anymore. The anime bears some similarities to Azumanga Daioh but that has better writing.

This shows that KyoAni cannot make good anime. Maybe one day they'll make something decent to watch.

D+

This anime is literally "comedy gold" and "slice of live gold" if that makes any sense

The way that every single episode not only brings something new as in "story/jokes/humor/ect", it also never fails to be funny and out of the top,

It's not to point where you'd be real confused and braindead because of how "over" the anime is "if that makes sense"

It's at that level where it's "over" and "out of the top" yet you can still comprehend everything and laugh along, it's brilliant!!

I can go on and on about how good the show is in general, but I'll keep it simple,

It's funny it's out of the top it's gold and lots more,

Sadly it didn't get a second season but with words that the manga is gonna come back I have high hopes for a second season, hopefully they'll keep the second season the same as the original, as in they'll keep the same humor and stuff,

But yeah if you asked me if I recommend you this anime I 100% recommend it.
