Newly airing moe-gag anime Shinryaku! Ika Musume (“Invasion! Squid Girl”) has immediately made an impression – it has been roundly praised as providing humour and cuteness in equal measure.
The opening:
The anime itself is likely the most anticipated of the season – the manga enjoys intense popularity on 2ch and elsewhere.
Unfortunately, all the amusing Ika-based wordplay the series (or rather, Ika Musume herself) is noted for is all but untranslatable – じゃなイカ (“isn’t it?”, ja nai ka?, becomes ja naika? – ika means squid), でゲソ (“desu” becomes “degeso” – geso means squid tentacles), etc. Gag anime fans are probably by now resigned to this, however.

Female Tentacles... i like.
This anime makes me wonder why Squidward Tentacles doesn't produce or spit squid ink? Anyways, this anime just invented a new fetish: squid ink!
squid-tan nothing the japanese cant make cute
Imagine her in hot yuri action with Tako Luka. Tentacles everywhere! ^_^
My heart screamed "INDEX!!!", but of which she is not..and I am saddened. T^T
I was sooo waiting for this one since I heard it'll be animated! ^_^
ME TOO! It's funny and cute so I was wondering when they'd finally air.
Hope this anime be a great success, famous = more doujins.
Just imagine the possibilities, loli tentacles and loli black ink squirting from all orifices.
I have a dream.
"I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all lolis and squids are created equal.
I share your dream too.
i like your dream...
I especially like her ink vomit ability.
You don't get a character this good everyday.
It's tentacle raep if she masturbates. ^_^
Ink vomiting! YES!!!
Join the legions of fat otakus fapping to themselves at home, while they watch this moe anime.
I'm sure there will be a wealth of illustrations depicting that interesting variation of that old, yet famous theme.
I am disappoint. A show featuring a tentacle girl, but NO actual tentacle raep?!?!
Squid loli...
Which also have her own tentacles.
Oh Japan, your imaginations far exceeds mine!
inb4tentaclerapepornstuff
it's implied. who/what do you think her parents were? think about it.
Technically it would be voluntary squid tentacle... masturbation?
Is this a first?
I immediately thought "INDEKKSU!" as well. Close, but no cigar.
Oh well, Index 2 is going to start very soon anyway.
INDEKKSU ? Surely you mean INKDESU.
a loli? who's doing the tentacle raping?
....awesome.
Lolis tentacle raeping each other. Maybe there is a god. ^_^
And Ika Musume is his prophet.
"Most tentacle anime this season!"
"most anticipated anime of the season."
Tentacle squid girl is stll hot though
I just ate squid awhile ago then I saw this and went like: =_="
Now I'm feeling somewhat guilty but oh well,squid is yummy!
I am reminded of the short-lived net series Penguin Musume Heart for some reason
A SQUID LOOK ALIKE LOLICON GIRL WITH SPEEDY, LONG and UBER POWERFUL tentacle RAPE potenial HARI VOMITING INK IS AWESOME!!
DO LIKE the expressions
now make a takoluka anime, dammit :)
In the OP video at about 0:58
With my crimson cape billowing in the cosmic breeze,I have heroically traveled across stars ,too numerous to count, to arrive at this majestic planet you call 'Earth'.I am...SPACE MEDAFIGHTER X!
what the fck she's a squid, not that is a bad thing... god now I think squids are hot
Pic 16 looks like Rika-chan in yandere mode
Loli + tentacle?
why didnt someone though of this before!?
this anime seems wierd and entertaining, me like.
Looks like a promising anime. :3
OP sounds addictive too, GJ !
They're gonna make sushi out of her.
..or Rule 34 of her with Paul The Octopus.
Ika Musume and Tako Luka - yuri tentacle fest. ^_^
Lots of good and fun anime to watch this season. From sexy mecha anime to loli tentacle girl. :)
Is happy.
Japan, a nation that can moesize absolutely anything, from squid to cockroaches.
Well, this looks like it could be worth watching... which makes a nice change.
The Japanese response to Spongebob!
The rise of the deep ones has never been cuter. I approve.
I'm sure translators will find a way but puns are puns and I'm not a fan. I think I'd like this cartoon though. The part that got me was squid girl "throwing up" is the other girl's face. I mean think about it. Most cephalopods use ink and if someone's really laying into her (i.e. being threatened by a predator) her natural instincts are gonna kick in and she gonna ink. If they do it right, it should get many laughs. I just hope they don't overuse it.
No, not a moeblob. This anime is actual comedy. I watched the 1st episode. It was pretty effin' funny. Her world-domination-folly was almost Zim-esque.
this will never, never and NEVER replace moeblob anime
well yeah that's what I though when I saw her, A certain moe squid knock off
before this show i didn't knew squid ink was digestible
man i fell stupid for avoiding the manga
I am amused.
