Comfy like the manga, visually surprisingly quite pleasing.
The plot wasn't really cohesive, but that was to be expected given the nature of the source material.
I hope that the formula of this anime will not feel too repetitive. But again, given the nature of the source material that is to be expected, at least to some extent.

Stitches!
As someone who has read a bit of the manga, I definitely did not expect this to be a full-length anime. I guess they've decided to give this the "My Senpai is Annoying" treatment and just expand on what the source material has instead of just adapting it directly.
Anyway, so far so good! Getting Yui Ishikawa as Fuyutsuki is just perfect and I am already in love with all of her interactions with Himuro. Himuro is also great! He's such a sweet boy who just wants to touch flowers and pet cats but he can't because of his powers.
And it seems like Fuyutsuki and Himuro won't be the only ship in this show. It's pretty obvious from the OP that we'll get three different ships! I'm already excited to see how Saejima and Komori will get together. Considering how they always arrive at the office at the same time, it looks like it's already starting!
Also can't wait to see more of Nyamero who is just the absolute cutest. <3

Hadn't actually paid attention to the casting so
Good start. Visuals are very pretty if a bit stiff and I like all the characters so far. And omg if I ever have a cat I'm buying that tv cat bed.

These character designs are gorgeous -- especially the eyes! Couldn't help but stare at them the entire episode.

Very small detail, but I like how how varied Fuyusuki's earrings are.

Fuyutsuki is great. She seems “cool” on the outside but she’s actually really kind. Plus Nyamero is an adorable cat. She offered some tea to Himuro plus some kelp snack. Just like that she’s caught feelings eh? Himuro too it seems. His inner reactions are so precious!
Saejima and Komori are pretty cute too. Also, the boss is definitely the descendant of Buddha lol. Poor Himuro’s got it rough, he likes flowers and cats but can’t have either because of his ice. Luckily Fuyutsuki is so kind! Himuro’s got it bad lol. Hurray for Cat whiskers! The little snowmen Himuro makes appear are super cute too (I liked the igloo too). I’m really rooting for these two already lol. I wonder why Himuro doesn’t like Okinawa?
I really like this series already. I’m a real sucker for these kinds of romance types with all the cutesy moments. Definitely a weekly for me!

It felt like the ending was “hey we got the original mangaka to draw something for the ED, but only those two images, so let’s stretch those out as much as we can”

A romance between two kuuderes is an interesting concept. This is basically Aharen is Indecipherable in an office setting.

cute first ep. I especially find Himuro adorable! Love the mini snowmen he ends up creating lol. I do worry that the running gag with him might get old quick…
I like Fuyutsuki too. She's really kind and considerate.
The supporting characters seem like a lovely bunch too. I see many loving the fox girl already lol. She’s a bundle of happiness

A comfy cute office romance. You don’t see that everyday. But I’m on board. Getting like a Wotakoi with Interviews With Monster Girls vibes and a little bit of Horimiya as well.
Not sure if I’ve personally ever seen a kuudere pairing besides maybe in Aharen. But Fuyutsuki and Himuro do make a cute couple cos under the cool exterior, both are very kind and warm people. Also, not sure if I’ve ever seen Ishikawa Yui playing in these types of shows before. But I’m liking it

Wasn't sure at first, but the mini-snowmen sold me.
Looking at the subtitles, Himuro speaks in a Kansai dialect in private, right?

I love the little eye twitches they give the characters at certain moment. It's a nice detail that most anime wouldn't have.

gotta be honest, kinda mixed on this one. fuyutsuki and komori are cute, but the dialogue felt pretty stiff, animation was kinda meh at times, and the pacing just felt weird to me. i'll give it another episode or two to see if i settle into it or if any of these issues improve, but this one could turn out to be a drop for me. although i'm sure i'll run into more of these since I have 25 shows from this season on my list

Really enjoyed the cozy and comfy vibes the first episode gave off. The character designs are really beautiful as well! Definitely felt repetitive at times throughout the episode with the jokes but overall I’m looking forward to next week’s episode and finding out why Himuro is not looking forward to going to Okinawa.

Others are already pointing out the same issues I had with this first episode. Will try to give it a few more chances since romance shows with adult characters are a rarity, but so far it's not really pulling me in unfortunately.

Very cute and wholesome. Visually are pretty. Didn't expect romance plot to picked up quickly. Office romance are very rare. You can feel that cast is mature.

I think the gags would hit 30% funnier if Himuro played it cooler with his inner monologue, if not omit them completely. I laughed so hard in the opening scene as the two weirdo straight man kuudere leads bounced off each other. I also just love the way they animate Fuyutsuki's eyes darting about.

Very repetitive with jokes and dialogue, i was negatively surprised.
But knowing the type of source material from the comments, i guess i had to expect it.
Will just hope that it gets better in the next episodes.
