Here is the OP~

When newly elected Student Council President Medaka Kurokami institutes her idea for a suggestion box where people can submit problems that need to be solved, she's expecting things like rescuing lost puppies and giving advice. What she and her best friend Zenkichi find instead, however, are the first hints of an unbelievable secret, and their school, Hakoniwa Academy, and Medaka herself are somehow at the very center of the growing maelstrom! As what seemed like an innocent past time turns into a dangerous game, Medaka and her recruits to the Student Council discover new depths to both themselves and their own unexpected abilities. And then things get really out of control!

Gainax: they do great original series (Evangelion) but perhaps, never fantastic adaptations.
Studio Shaft and Studio White Fox both had a splendid adaptation of Nisio Isin’s (NisiOisin) Bakemonogatari and Katanagatari respectively. Due to this, I’ve set my bars high for Medaka Box which is animated by another known-to-be-good animation studio—Gainax. I have seen quite a lot of original stories from Gainax and they’re all good. But when you talk about their adaptations, well, they’re badly narrated and fares mediocre at best. Medaka Box, seems like it has the possibility to fall into that category, however with its background, I hope it will prove me wrong~
Oh right,
and Boobs.

I don't see this really becoming anything special, especially in regards to NisiOisiN's prior animated works. It's a fun series to watch, and while you could say it's just starting slow... Gainax is the type of animation studio that tends to love emphasizing bust sizes and hot blooded things.

While the series so far has been entertaining - It's far from being a series I'll really remember, like Katanagatari or the Bake/Nisemono series.

A nice show to watch for quick entertainment, but not one that will turn into one of those long lasting "classics".

I watched the first episode, it seems all over the place, maybe I should check out the light novel of this so I can see if there are any notable changes... Because in comparison to Bakemonogatari and Katanagatari, this doesn't seem as entrancing as most of Nisioisin's work. But I'll still finish it, maybe it'll impress me later on? Who knows.

On another note, I like this thread Hypnos. You are impressing me all over the place today. Keep at it. :U

It was adapted from a manga, not a light novel. Which is probably why it's much more different than Katanagatari and Bakemonogatari. And less wordy as well.

Probably. Iunno.

[I think people just get bored during the first season. In season 2, the focus shifts from a sket dance ripoff into a shounen battle type series, yet it's not just generic shounen drivel. Medaka and the other characters get great development. If you can survive most of season 1, you'll enjoy the direction season two takes]

I will be honest. The only reason why i watched the anime (and currently reading the manga) is because a lot of people told me that Kumagawa is the craziest character in the whole anime/manga world and they told me that i must watch it.
Well i still prefer the manga because i can see more Kumagawa in the manga than in the anime.
