Blend S (TV)

Genres: comedy, slice of life
Themes: café

Plot Summary: Maika gets a job at a cafe where all the waitresses are given certain attributes — such as "tsundere" or "little sister" — to embody while serving customers. The manager asks Maika to be the "Do S" (extreme sadist) waitress, so she will have to adopt a dominant and aggressive persona.
----------------------------------

Episode 1:
Oh God, this show is adorable.

Maika is absolutely adorable to watch! She is a bit timid but I think her character is really charming to watch. I also think Kaho is cute to watch and she seems like a popular girl.

One of the cutest anime of the season. Definitely will be watching more especially for the characters.

It is good to have a cute series like this every so often. Maika despite her supposed not being comfortable to be sadistic, did seem to fit into it pretty easily.

"Cute" was the last thing that came to mind while watching it.
It's fetish fuels: the series. It gets real annoying when spoiler[we get the trap into the mix].

@ Sunny milk: but you wouldn't have a problem if the show had a character that satisfied your particular fetish, would it. And, in the future, use spoiler tags for source material information as the rules require.

I went to go add tags myself but in the span of clicking "edit" on their post and it loading you had already added them. I was confused for a second when I saw a spoiler tag in the post when I went to edit and backed up and saw none.

Well, the imouto would satisfy my fetish, per se, but that doesn't mean I have to like it, and it's not even the point: it's just that the series is not cute, too dirty for that.
And calling that spoiler is way to exaggerate, when it's basically in his character introduction on official page too.

@ Sunny milk - let me spell something out for you: there are several posters here in a forum dedicated to ANIME discussion who make no effort to find out details about a series whether from official show sites or any other source. We specifically want to experience the show as it broadcast. So the rule is you don't discuss UPCOMING things without using spoiler tags to do so. And to take away any guesswork as to what some might consider a major spoiler versus a minor spoiler, the rule is NO INFORMATION at all without spoiler tags.

Mafuyu's real personality reminds me so much of my own younger sister!

I wonder how much longer they're going to make us wait for the other two waitresses to show up.

Watching the show I couldn't help but think "This is like a Manga Time Kirara show, but it has males in it so it can't be!" but then I looked it up and it really is a Manga Time Kirara show.

I don't know what to think anymore...

Episode 3

It kind of feels like this show has hit a stride now, and I found the episode to be particularly enjoyable. There was a sudden picture reference to both New Game and Kiniro Mosaic, though it took me a moment to think that Shino from Kiniro Mosaic actually has some similarities to Maika. Obsessed with foreign countries, and especially blonde hair. Young Maika was used some good humour, like her first love being a kernel statue, that is Anne Happy level stuff.

I like how straightforward this series is with telling us how only well endowed girls have value, and small women are trash, that beach episode showed that crystal clear.

Laughing Yeah, that's TOTALLY the message I got, too. You are a treasure trove of "found" humour, Sunny milk.

It's a shame that Sunny Milk was too blinded by Kaho's chest to appreciate how sensual the shots of Mafuyu napping were.
