I am surprised no one has started a topic on this yet. If they have I am sorry.

Anyone else watching this Show? When I first watched it I was expecting some Harem/Ecchi show that was just going to be good to look at for the art and girls.... Turns out I was a little wrong about this show. It turned out to be pretty amazing with its fights and unique twist on why they are all fighting. For a Summary I shall post this one:

"The story revolves around a poor high school student named Satou You. Satou goes to the supermarket one day and discovers a bento (boxed meal) on sale at half price. Just as he reaches to grab it, he ends up on the floor unconscious. Satou has just entered the fierce, no-holds-barred supermarket survival battle for half-price bento."

I'm watching it and I'm loving it.
Silly concept really but there is something about it that makes it very enjoyable.

The fanservice is all part of the plan, man. The appeal of this show is that it takes everything that's annoying and generic about every other "KID GOES TO HIGH SCHOOL AND BECOMES AN UNEXPECTED BADASS WITH A HAREM AND SHIT" trope and plunges it into one of the most hilariously ridiculous scenarios ever. And then it just goes with it, completely straight-faced. It's fantastic. I don't care if it's not supposed to be a clever social commentary because in my mind it is.

Also: LET'S GET IT. LET'S GET IT LET'S GO.

So I made a tumblr dream log for a friend of mine, but then I realized that all I dream about is nerdy stuff. BUT THAT'S NORMAL FOR DOUJINSTYLE SO YOU SHOULD HAVE A READ

Watching since the beginning. Hilarious with some of THE highest animation production values of the season. Fight scenes are smooth as heck, and quality fetish material. Great humour, outlandish and ridiculous premise, takes itself seriously but doesn't expect it's viewers to actually watch it for the plot. The fanservice is perfect for this show, because for once, there's a legitimated reason to distract you from the silly setting. Characters that are loveable, hilarious, over-the-top and fits every kind of moe.

I saw the synopsis but I didn't get into it. I thought it was a generic show. Then I saw a gif for one of the fighting scenes and I was like "Damn, that's good for a generic show." Picked up episode 1 and trying to catch up. I'm surprised to say its actually somewhat decent.

I was watching it but there's only so much of this bullshit I can take. When it comes right down to it it's just another show about watching the lead get beat up by his horribly unlikable harem.
Feeling down? You may already be a charge target.

Very true. And in the beginning he lost a lot because he sucked at fighting. He got better and started winning. Even beat his Cousin in a one on one fight. He is only losing now because the people are strong/Rehab/ and it would be boring if he defeat everyone quickly XD
