I suspected Nagi was a girl since the first episode end credits. It pretty much told you that this was going to be a harem-type show. Which meant if you are going to showcase them in the credits like that, they are possible love interests.

They were dropping major hints about it throughout the episode that Nagi is a girl in the way she sat on the floor after Kanako punched her and the way she fainted to the floor afterward. It's pretty interesting that the tallest, most athletic girl is the flat-chested one. It's a bit refreshing to not have the typical loli character.

I got major laughs from when Nagi was feeling up Kanako. Her hand was on there for a looooong time. A good 10+ seconds. Plus, a couple of squeezes with sound effects were really bordering on excessive.

The icing on the cake is the fact that Yu Kobayashi (Mariya of Maria Holic, Lala of School Rumble) used a variety of different tones to voice the different emotional states of Nagi. Oh, and this.

And Kaede's wide-eyed reaction to Nagi's household was great. The little dream sequence, the eager look on her face, her cheerful acceptance of the invitation to come in, and the tourist-y act when inside were lovely.

Episode 5 was a riot.
Spoiler :
Almost no cat action whatsoever, but a fun trip to the park with all the girls. Lots of "which girl will he pick" business going around. It's clear he likes Mizuno, but it's also clear that everybody else likes him. Man it's a hard choice. End of the ep has introduction of new characters who know about the cat curse. Also, Nagi is probably the most epic reverse trap ever. I'm (not) gay for her.

Ep.5

The best part was Nagi's reading of her letter. The way her voice pitches up at the end and the manner in which the letter was written cracked me up. Especially the little <3 at the end.

And every time she took a picture of Junpei and Kaede together in very close proximity, I burst out laughing.

Epic episode.

Episode 06... The twins...
Spoiler :
CUTEST THING EVER. One is tsundere, the other is a yandere stalker. I lol'd that their hair in the front is pinned in opposite directions. Also a new cat shows up, Noir, who seems to have a thing for Tama. This ep made me laugh so much. It's a tossup between this and Kimi ni Todoke for best show of the season. <3 <3 <3

I love this show :) I've been watching it since the first week but didn't realize there was a thread for it. Sometimes it hits a little too close to home though because I do cat rescue and it makes me sad to see the cat kicked out from her home at the school and the baby who hasn't eaten in 3 days...
