Haiyore! Nyaruko-san’s first episode has been well received – although amidst plenty of complaints that the anime is so “high tension” it is an undertaking to watch, with the initial episode packed with just about every sort of anime action:
You, sir, are just about to fap to she who man is not supposed to know. Your senses will be assaulted by ecstasy from beyond Euclidean space and you will be singing praises in a loathsome, alien tongue as you achieve climax.
Ya.. I actually bought the mini version and didn't know it was. What a waste of money, but it did get me pretty interested in the series. So will be looking forward to it.
I had a lot of fun watching it last night. It was pretty funny and fans of the Cthulhu Mythos (and its TRPG) will enjoy the various critters that appear in the show (Shantaks, Nightgaunts, Nodens, Nyarlathotep, Tsathoggua, etc.)
This show is about losing sanity points. Once you start mumbling incoherently, followed by bouts of hysterical shouting, this show has accomplished its objective.
why is'nt there a show when the female lead comes on that hard to the male lead. he just go "what the heck, just see where this will go with the love thing" and not when a girl wants to kiss and do things in the tub go. "NO"
No. NOnonononoooooooo. Nyarlathotep isn't 'just' an alien. Anyone who'd read the Lovecraft books about him/her/it would know that you're probably better off punching your own ticket than hanging around Nyarlathotep for even a minute. It considers sending people off to eternal madness and damnation to be a fun gag.
Nyar: "Hey dude, Azathoth will devour you for eternity, but just get on this freaky winged thing and steer clear of him and you'll be okay because I'm such a great guy."
Sucker: Hey thx. *gets on winged thing, which then flies straight to Azathoth.*
Nyar: loljk
well actually Nyarlathotep is formless, in other words it can change into whatever it wants to, one of it's forms is described to be a tentacle monster though
Indeed. It mostly appears in the form of an tall Egyptian male that serves the Old Ones as a high priest/CEO. It also does not like to kill but, rather, enjoys driving individuals into madness...
Actually if I remember right in the Novel while he is far from uninterested he thinks that having a Relationship with Nyarlathotep or for the ones not knowing about Lovecraft a true Cosmic Horror is not a good Idea so you're dead on(at least so far I've read, I'm somewhat behind).
True. Remember that Nyarlathotep didn't deny it when he imagined all those tentacle monsters? She simply took on human form since she's on VERY important mission on earth.
I hear ya...It is a very common sight, but in this case, the male protagonist KNOWS full well who and what 'she' is...
If you look 'her' up in the Lovecraftian Lore, you will know full well why he bests keep his distance from her despite the current form that she presents him with, and no matter what cute appeal or MOE~ affection she displays...
Nyarlathotep is not one to be taken lightly (as is the other Outer Gods, Deep Ones, and the rest of the Lovecraftian creatures and beings)...
H.P. was a shut in, didn't like people very much, corresponded through the mails, collected weird stories and all manner of other kitch.
It wouldn't be too much of a stretch to say he was the otaku of his day. I would liken his reaction to what I think Prof. Tolkien would think of the LotR films, mild interest.
Of course, he had a distaste for 3D women as well, no saying what he would think of 2D.
...given the fact that many of his contempories in letters wrote him off as sanctimonioius and hypocrital...yes, he would fap. And feel the "utterly contemptible" attiude for it.
lol pokeball
075-Gotta Catch 'Em All!
but she sucks as trainer - everybody knows shantaks are weak to nightgaunts
Dunno what this show is about but I am gonna trust my dick..
You, sir, are just about to fap to she who man is not supposed to know. Your senses will be assaulted by ecstasy from beyond Euclidean space and you will be singing praises in a loathsome, alien tongue as you achieve climax.
This is sage advice.
glad to see it being a full 30min length tv anime with some what fair plot unlike the mini flash like anime version which is around 6-8mins last year.
and people complain about it being so "high tension" for a 30min anime.
iLulz
Ya.. I actually bought the mini version and didn't know it was. What a waste of money, but it did get me pretty interested in the series. So will be looking forward to it.
so awesome this show ^^
I had a lot of fun watching it last night. It was pretty funny and fans of the Cthulhu Mythos (and its TRPG) will enjoy the various critters that appear in the show (Shantaks, Nightgaunts, Nodens, Nyarlathotep, Tsathoggua, etc.)
Hopefully you mean be insulted to no end. Lovecraft wasn't a pleasant individual, and this... I DON'T THINK THIS WAS HIS STYLE.. it's almost criminal.
It's a bigger insult than that 1998 Godzilla movie with Ferris Bueller.
O R'LYEH ?
YA RLYeh!
What the hell is this show even about? God, please tell me i'm not the only one confused.
This show is about losing sanity points. Once you start mumbling incoherently, followed by bouts of hysterical shouting, this show has accomplished its objective.
It's like an American Republican Primary debate?
What? NO! Of course it isn't!
I mean there are girls in the show!
sanity? I've lost mine years ago
I failed my SAN check against Nyaruko...
It is a show about boy living with cosmic horrors in a form of cute girls.
Like Saya no Uta without nastiness.
Best show of this season!
Nyaruko feels a little like Excel but way cuter.
...
And THAT Zettai Ryouiki !!!
(」・ω・)」うー!(/・ω・)/にゃー!!
テテテロテン♪ \(・ω・)/Let'sにゃー!
Damn someone already beat me to it lol.
imo ZR is a little too big but still OK compared to others...
Also that voice! That keeps me interesting in the show. :P
Yeah, I like her voice as well.
Nyaruko is voiced by none other than... Kana Asumi!
No wonder! She's my favorite moe heroine now.
No signs of Atoko and (especially) Nyarue kinda made me sad though :<
It's only the first episode. They'll probably be introduced in future episodes. As it was the first episode felt a little rushed.
Hey its, not done in flash like the other one.
Lovecraft is turning in his grave... And I have an erection.
he probably have one too
that's probably why he had t turn
why is'nt there a show when the female lead comes on that hard to the male lead. he just go "what the heck, just see where this will go with the love thing" and not when a girl wants to kiss and do things in the tub go. "NO"
In this case, maybe he's reserved because he knows the girl is a tentacle monster in disguise?
Which brings the point, how often is the GIRL the tentacle monster, eh? ^_~
Saya no uta ?
Saya is ALWAYS the tentacle monster XD
Ika musume?
tako musume
you mean an alien ? but still, she can keep the human form so everything is okay.
No. NOnonononoooooooo. Nyarlathotep isn't 'just' an alien. Anyone who'd read the Lovecraft books about him/her/it would know that you're probably better off punching your own ticket than hanging around Nyarlathotep for even a minute. It considers sending people off to eternal madness and damnation to be a fun gag.
Nyar: "Hey dude, Azathoth will devour you for eternity, but just get on this freaky winged thing and steer clear of him and you'll be okay because I'm such a great guy."
Sucker: Hey thx. *gets on winged thing, which then flies straight to Azathoth.*
Nyar: loljk
You do NOT put your penis in Nyarlathotep.
Obviously Mahiro knows that, and thus tries to repel her with a fork, for all the good it does.
Strange season...monster girl,zombie girl,ghost girl ,weapon girl ,fetiche girl WTF?
Hayore..tigerpalmtop sister?
Don't forget a cross-dressing zombie magical GUY.
Cross-dressing zombie magical girl-guy is the most normal of the bunch =/
well actually Nyarlathotep is formless, in other words it can change into whatever it wants to, one of it's forms is described to be a tentacle monster though
Indeed. It mostly appears in the form of an tall Egyptian male that serves the Old Ones as a high priest/CEO. It also does not like to kill but, rather, enjoys driving individuals into madness...
someone in Young Justice didn't mind a monster girl.
Actually if I remember right in the Novel while he is far from uninterested he thinks that having a Relationship with Nyarlathotep or for the ones not knowing about Lovecraft a true Cosmic Horror is not a good Idea so you're dead on(at least so far I've read, I'm somewhat behind).
Tentacles or not, she looks like another hyperactive and monomaniacal Haruhi-like character.
True. Remember that Nyarlathotep didn't deny it when he imagined all those tentacle monsters? She simply took on human form since she's on VERY important mission on earth.
Kanokon has a very agressive female lead
"what the heck, just see where this will go with the love thing" and not when a girl wants to kiss and do things in the tub go. "NO"
They have those kinds of anime, its called Hentai.
HP Lovecraft must be rolling in his grave now
"WTF? My monster can't be this cute."
HP Lovecraft: What is the meaning of this?!
*Carefully stares at Nyaruko*
HP Lovecraft:..... *Fap Fap Fap*
By the Outer Gods, I would trade in my Great Knife just to see the look on Mr. H.P. Lovecraft's face when he watches this anime show...
That said, I enjoyed it thoroughly when it was just random short skits back then before it became this high-quality (and lengthy)...

Ideally, it might end up as....
fap fap fap fap.
;) :P
...given the fact that many of his contempories in letters wrote him off as sanctimonioius and hypocrital...yes, he would fap. And feel the "utterly contemptible" attiude for it.
>H.P. was a shut in, didn't like people very much.

I believe me and him can get along very well.
try Trinity 7(though its still just a manga)
the girls was just like: "which do u want me to be, a mistress or a young bride?"
then the boy was like: "young bride please!"
There are shows like that. It's called HENTAI. look it up.
yeah, who in their right mind would refuse a kiss from a great old on in the form of a cute girl?
best GF ever!
The only thing I'm wondering is why can't Gordon Freeman be this cute?
I mean, how many fictional characters do you see, that uses crowbar as a main weapon?
Funny enough, the crowbar actually was indeed referencing Freeman according to the author.
School Days shows where that can lead...
Also Mirai Nikki, eventually.
They try to be sensitive to virgin otaku.
ahaha so true!
