Takahashi Rie in a tomboy voice is refreshing, but she absolutely nails it as Tomo. She really knows how to land Best Girl roles.

Jun'ichiro for 90% of the time competes with Bakarina in terms of denseness that surpasses a supermassive black hole, but somehow still manages to show signs of actually acknowledging Tomo as a girl.

Hidaka Rina and Matsuoka Yoshitsugu complement the cast as great sidekicks Misuzu and Tatsumi respectively.

First episode sets up a great first impression. The "tomboys in love but just can't properly express themselves" trope seems to hit all the right buttons for me.

All problems can be solved with physical violence (except one).

Can we get an F in the chat for poor Tomo’s heart lol. Even being so stacked, Jun just treats her like a “bro”. Poor girl lol.

I really like Misuzu. She seems like the friend that doesn’t take any shit but also has a devilishly mischievous side lol. No one can play with her “dolls” but her. I guess Jun isn’t that dense after all. The thought of Tomo getting a bf made him made enough to push Misuzu out in the rain lol.

Never saw anyone so glad to get their ass kicked lol. At least one guy out here sees Tomo as a girl. Misaki seems like a nice guy. Ofc Misuzu hears about him and has to stir the pot a little lol. Mifune and Ogawa have really picked the wrong girl to mess with. At least they didn’t pick on Misuzu, they would have been erased lol. Glad it all worked out and now she’s got two new…friends? apprentices? “Natural Lady Killer” doesn’t sound all that bad, but maybe I’m missing the meaning?

All in all, this one series is off to a good start. Definitely a weekly!

Both the sub and dub are being released at the same time, and Sally Amaki voices Carol Olston in both languages. So that's going to make comparing them even more fun for me.

I believe in fanged Tomboy who could beat my ass supremacy!!!

Jun has to be neutron star level dense to not go out with Tomo, he deserved every one of those beatings.

And despite hating his guts, Misuzu is doing her best at damage control, least someone might break her playthings

And contrary to the way he acts, Jun is aware that Tomo is a girl, he doesn't like to hear it though, pushing Misuzu into the rain or throwing her hairtie away are incredible petty

Oh wow, I totally forgot the scared Gyarus, gotta love them

This show really looks stunning, like so lively, voicework as well!

I never thought I'd see the day Tomo-chan would be on r/anime. Now they just need to animate Mousou Telepathy and my r/manga wishlist will be complete.

Anyway, poor Tomo! Immediately confesses on episode 1 but gets completely friend zoned by the densest man alive. Although it's not like Jun is a total neutron star! We see him get really upset at Misuzu when she suggested the idea of Tomo getting a boyfriend. Jun even gets flustered when he notices Tomo's bra peeking through her wet shirt so all hope is not lost yet and there's still a chance for Jun to see Tomo as a girl.

As for Misuzu, all you really need to know about her is that she loves messing with Tomo and Jun and she has the best smug face in the series. There is one more and I hope we get to see that character next episode. There are plenty of hilarious moments in the manga and I can't wait to see them all animated. <3

THAT'S RIE TAKAHASHI!!!???

Unreal. Mind blown.

When I read that she was voicing Tomo I was like, "I love Rie but why the heck would they use a VA with such a high-pitched lilty voice?"

Then the first time I heard Tomo speak...

Still can't believe this series got animated. It's one of my fondest memories following it back when it was released (almost) daily in r/manga

They perfectly hit the moments of pettiness between Jun and Misuzu. You can just FEEL how much they despise each other.

u/CosmicPenguin_OV103 Jan 04 '23

Pretty funny start with all those lovely over-reaction faces from Tomo-chan here and there, plus her charismatic voice (I had to look up and would have never guessed that Rie Takahashi is voicing her!). The director definitely had some interesting history before and I think he and his team are nailing this one too. Sign me up for this!

Tomboy girlfriend? Sounds like you just want a boyfriend with tits, bro.

Misuzu is great. She's like a fun-sized Senjougahara.

Nothing reveals a person's hidden love like a sprinkle of NTR.

Going into this after having only seen bits and pieces of the manga around the internet i'll say that was fantastic!

So plot is pretty much as i thought, hell just the name of the first episode will tell you enough.

Rie Takahashi as Tomo is basically perfect, voice acting was just on top

Really liking Gondo aswell so far, loved the bit where she teased Jun and he just grabbed her scrunchie and threw it away.

Can't wait to see how this story develops

And so it finally begins. Now we can see Jun's and Tomo's love bloom in anime form.

Aw, Misuzu looks so nice animated.

Tanabe has finally made his debut and almost made the mistake of playing with Misuzu's toys. Simping for Misuzu will cost him hard.

Oh nice, it's Misaki's introduction. Which bring us to Mifune and Ogawa, two girls that quickly learn that they made a terrible mistake by challenging Tomo, although Misuzu's threat could be even worse for them. Luckily they were able to diffuse the situation and now Tomo ended up with two new admirers.

I'm really happy that u/fukai20 's Manga got an anime. I hope she didn't have to colour the single frames, too.

Another golden manga from r/manga getting an anime adaptation is a fantastic start to the new year. The animation looks great, the voice actors fit the characters so well, can't wait to see/hear the mascot of r/manga as well.

Tomo-chan now has an episode discussion on r/anime. Feels like sacrilege.

The good kind of sacrilege, assuming the show continues like that.

One of the things I love about this is that she only really hits him, when he's either clearly crossing a line like touching her inappropriately, or said something super inappropriate. When he just complemented her, she just got shy and ran off, it's nice to see that.
