Title: Azumanga Daioh.
Post by: Tupin on February 10, 2008, 05:58:51 PM
I just recently started watching it, (I am about half way through the episodes now) and I must admit, it is awfully funny/cute. :P

I am just wondering if some of the plot elements influenced other animes... *coughcoughluckystarcough*

I guess those just are popular elements in seinen...

I'll have to check that out.

Too bad most of the stores around me don't sell it because it came out years ago.

I honestly prefer Azumana Shikeru No Toshimoto Dai-kentai.

Is that the Japanese title?

Or another anime entirely?

I have no idea what that is, I checked google, Wikipedia, and anime news network and found nothing

Yes, it's pretty obvious that LS may have borrowed a few pointers from Azumanga.  But they're both still amazing imo.

It borrowed from both Azumanga and Haruhi, mostly the latter. Not that great of a combo, if you ask me. Lucky Star sucks massively compared to Azumanga.

Also, I just started watching another sort of "school comedy" last night that's pretty weird. Not necessarily in a good way, either. Some of the "randomness" is a little over-the-top, though the weird references to pop culture (even 2chan) are neat. It's called "Pani Poni Dash!"
