Where we learn that Fumi is very, very gay considering she
has been having sex with her cousin.
The show also picks up the pace a little, going nearly two full chapters this episode, and is still amazingly faithful to the manga.
I have one criticism, though. I wish the music were a little more evident or louder because it's quite nice. In H&C and especially Nodame, music was a huge element in setting up a scene. In Aoi Hana, it's so incredibly subdued that I had to re-watch to make sure there was actual music. I've grown used to Aa-chan's voice actress but I'm still disappointed in Fumi's voice actress. While Fumi is shy and selfish, she's quite bold in some aspects.
I'm loving the show so far: nicely animated and detailed in parts, such as the sleep-over scene. Next week should reveal the primary drama in Aoi Hana and I'm looking forward to how they present the library scene.
It's definitely about penises. You must honour your fathers penis for bringing your penis into the world, and it's up to your penis to ensure the creation of more penises in the future.
you motherfuckers shut the hell up right fucking now
You've already spoiled Simon's name for me!
Adine... Adiane's... that female general's Ganmen has a giant vagina.
Haven't watched it yet, but knowing that Fumi is the name of one of the protagonists and knowing that it's an anime about lesbians, I think it'd only be a spoiler if she wasn't gay! :P

well hey i went it without knowing it was an anime about lesbians or any of that oh well

Most people would be clued in by them being naked and caressing each other in the OP.
Why would you watch a show without knowing anything about it.
Because posts here said the company had a good history and they expressed good opinions of the possible quality of the show. And I seem to have agreed with those posters before. Someone saw episode 1 and said it was good, with whatever details in spoilers. Then I saw it listed on crunchyroll and tried it out.

There's a difference between getting hints from the OP and having someone who's already knows the plot from a different media telling you what's what.

You have to at least know the basic premise.
Not really. I watched the first season of Nanoha only knowing Nanoha's name and the genre, and was ultimately rewarded with awesome.
I actually actively avoided Nanoha because I thought it was stupid loli shit until Season 3 started airing. I watched the first episode of that and was all D:D:D: :^::^::^:, was instantly converted, then went back to find Seasons 1 and 2.
Wow, Pika you really are incredibly anal about this. That's . . . the basic premise of the show. I mean, I could say the same thing about Strike Witches, that "Miyafuji is very, very gay," and not reveal anything important at all.
So after the eighth episode, phallic imagery and female anime cliches aside, I still rather enjoy Gurren Lagann. It has a nice Battlefield Earth feel to it and I always like stories that look like they're about a bunch of characters massing together over time rather than a few lone characters fighting the enemy by themselves.
I also give props to any show willing to kill main characters, something I understand will continue to happen.

You should watch A's after you're done with the first season. It hits the ground running.
The first season managed to make me completely hate the "main" villain with record breaking speed. I think the introduction counted as going past the moral event horizon.

whaaaaaaaat
They don't get "killed." They die. In a manly way. with guts.
... man i have no clue how to word this joke correctly.
manly men don't get killed without permission, they allow themselves to die. and they do it super manly and such

Heck, if you really want to get into semantics, most places with info and such count the gayness as one of the genres it belongs to!

Speaking of "very gay", have you watched Maria Holic? If so, what were your impressions?

Actually, it may be worthwhile to try and get your hands on the supplementals.
Nanoha -> first 3 chapters of A's manga -> Nanoha A's / Nanoha A's manga (concurrent) / A's Soundstage (a few important tracks with Wolkenritter backstory) -> A's to StrikerS manga -> first episode of Nanoha StrikerS -> first couple chapters of StrikerS manga -> rest of Nanoha StrikerS / StrikerS manga (concurrent) / StrikerS Sound Stage (mostly skippable IIRC)
After that, it's StrikerS Sound Stage X (post series, pretty important), then Nanoha Force and Nanoha ViVid (dual Season 4 mangas taking place at different times).

:x
We might be alone on Strike Witches though. SW made me physically ill, so you might be alone when they do the continuation!
Even if you watched School Days I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to talk about it. Other than "Nice boat", of course.
well hey i went it without knowing it was an anime about lesbians or any of that oh well
Well yes, people do usually try to block out severe psychological damage such as that dealt out by School Days.
Hmm, sounds interesting. Psychological trauma like a horror show? Should this be something I should watch?
Most people would be clued in by them being naked and caressing each other in the OP.
Just watch it. It's too horrible to describe despite it's seemingly commonplace beginning.
You have to at least know the basic premise.
If you start vomiting blood that's normal
Vomiting blood in a good way or bad way?
Yes.
I was bored out of my mind until the end of the giant cat episode and after that shit got real
Until that episode, it's mostly standard magical girl fare and is only amusing if you're familiar with the genre and see what they're parodying.
After that episode, it becomes awesome.
I'm pretty sure I've been around here long enough to take everything you say with a pound of salt.

you already used tags, what it so hard to have had your post like this?

HOWEVER
School Days is as School Days does as well.

By then there should be enough FMA to watch.
Then it will be time for something new. Well, probably something old, but something different at any rate.
How is this supposed to be blood-vomiting?
