4 friends. Typical school life stuff.
Until one of them transfers and disrupts things.
That wishing stone really worked?! Sweet!
Looks interesting, will give this one a try.

Please use "Episode 1" in your subject line since your talking about episode 1 in your post...wait, this aired already? Oh, a webrip? Blech.

No clue what's going on besides Saki being somewhat of a bitch to her friends regarding school and moving away. Okay. Natsumi is not taking this lightly which is understandable.

The wishing stone works and the girls fly in the air without thinking that anyone on the ground can see their panties. Luckily...I doubt anyone is in the forest around the temple.

So, most likely what happened at the end will bring the girls closer together during summer break before everyone goes their own way? Maybe Saki's move will be delayed or something?

I'm already liking Natsumi (Minako Kotobuki!) who reminds me of Nagisa of Pretty Cure. Yuka also reminds me of Saten of Railgun.

I forgot...Lawson convenience stores make an appearance, too, with the right name. I wonder if there is going to be any crossover advertising in the near future.

Well, that was different. Instead of Tamayura, we get two girls, Natsumi and Saki, yelling at each for the whole episode. Martial problems I guess.
Then they fly. Then Saki throws a fit and walks away. Eh?
But...YUKA! FABULOUS YUKA! And stoic girl as well.

They need to get a room together asap to solve their problems. Maybe that's what happened if the second episode shows them being more friendly to each other.

[Fencedude]

Well, they didn't waste any time pairing the girls up, thats convenient.

Natsumi and Saki definitely need to get locked in a room together till they work out there problems. Take their clothes first too. That'll speed things up.

Yuka is pretty entertaining, if this weren't Sphere: The Animation, she'd totally be voiced by Itou Kanae.

And I wasn't expecting actual miracles.

Very nice first episode. It did a great job of drawing me in and feeling for the girls and their drama even though I just met them.

I especially enjoyed Yuka. Definitely my favorite of the girls. Rinko's second, doing a nice job as the deadpan girl. It pleases me to see them paired up all the time.

Natsumi and Saki spend the entire episode engaged in a spat, so they aren't exactly bringing the best sides of their personalities to the table. Though it DOES make them very slashable. If this is the baseline, then they're going to be all but fucking each others' brains out (by yuri-subtext standards) by the end of the show.

Episode 1:

- Alright, so the orange haired girl looks to be the main one, if there is a main nice. So nice that Kotobuki gets that role.
- And her mom is Sawashiro Miyuki <3
- Tomatsu gets the genki girl, Toyosaki gets the quiet one. Takagahi gets the, uh, whatever you'd call Saki. Aloof for now, I guess.

- Man. Saki definitely isn't coming off well, but I do want to hear her side of the story.
- Tomatsu's character Yuka is so Tomatsu.
- Aww. Saki is transferring. That explains it.
- But she's still being a right bitch about it. Natsumi is tubborn too, but most of the problem is with Saki. I love Yuka's spectator role though. She's just so exasperated with these two hardheaded fools.

- Yuka fainted! ...such an obvious setup. Heh.
- XD Rinko is such a bad liar.
- "The sky is blue." Haha, Rinko... and Yuka's tears are so fake aren't they?
- Flying!
- Damn. When they were floating in the sky I soooo thought Rinko would make a "They can see our panties from down there." joke.

So this is like, Sphere Has A Bad Argument After A Failed Concert: The Anime. Except I have a bit of trouble imagining Kotobuki as the yelling type.

Anyway that was very cute. I'm down for a cour of this, especially since Saki will liekly mellow out next episode.

[Fencedude]

Oh god. That was hilarious. And incredibly gay.

They actually almost took my suggestion.

Also running. Lots and lots of running.
