Sensei's voice actor definitely sold the "I am way too drunk" voice.

The whole show's just really well acted and animated all around. I really liked Eiko's insistent "Oh-hai-i-yo-go-za-ii-ma-SU!" the next morning.

So, the red-eyed salmon onigiri girl... why does she grab Tama and run off? Or rather, I assume she runs off because she's embarrassed, but what's Tama got to do with it? (got to do with it)

(got to do with it) I think I saw a twitter thread somewhere that basically said that it's a nigh-intranslatable pun of some sort, though I forget where I saw that or what the specifics were.

When I asked in the chat thread I got this:Beato Believer posted:Her full name is Momochi Tamate, which apparently is associated with the word Tamatebako, which is a reference to "is the name of a mysterious box that in the Japanese folk tale "Urashima Tarō", a parting gift that the fisherman Urashima Tarō receives from mistress of the sea". So I'm guessing it was an obscure reference/pun about Tama's name and fish (and I'm relying way too much on wikipedia for all this).

Ah, tough puns, the bane of any English-speaking anime comedy fan. I also feel like this show is underwatched

I watched the ep and I can think of a few reasons why a yuri mangaka made a gag where two girls come back to a classroom and one is glowing while the other is fatigued

Agronox posted:I was trying to think of a “if you liked THIS, you might like Slow Start” and the best I could come up with was Kiniro Mosaic. kiniro mosaic comes close briefly in that ayaya and yoko have their moments, and honoka is eventually elevated from "random classmate who feeds karen" to actually going on a date with her in season 2 and joining the main cast. but rather than looking at other anime, slow start reads to me most like a lot of yuri doujin for established franchises where the story and motivations are already part of the original work so the doujinshi just focus on the character interactions the author wants to see. it's not "let's kiss and make out" like sakura trick, it's way closer to the other 4koma gag kirara stuff. but where the girls in hidamari are usually talking about arts and crafts and their chill apartment life and new game is about working in game development, and sometimes these have perverted gags and relationship building, slow start is just founded upon thirst and gay girls, it doesn't really concern itself with anything else for long. the premise is important to only hana's character and doesnt concern the rest of the cast outside of interacting with her. their daily conversation either starts with or leads into what panties eiko is wearing or what clothes kamu forgot to wear or whose 'sauce' they're drinking. it's pretty amazing in that regard.

The whole scene with Eiko in Kiyose's apartment definitely read like something out of a doujin to me.

speaking of douj, the manga has some good moments that the anime mysteriously skips, like one of their classmates asking Eiko if she finally got someone pregnant

Slow Start is most similar to Yuru Yuri and New Game! in that the canon pairing is Everyone x Everyone Else

Part of the fun of this series is asking yourself during the episode, "How thirsty will this be?" A shame to see production values declining though.

Kamuri insisting that the hole was for your tail is doing nothing to curb my impulse to assume that she's literally just an older Kanna Kobayashi.

Even though the gap year thing is still an incredibly stupid thing to be this anxious about, the fake out still got me. I wish this show was about Eiko tbh. Shes so drat smooth.
