Asobi Asobase: Workshop of Fun

This school girl anime is centred on Hanako, Olivia and Kasumi; three friends who are second years at an all-girls middle school. They are the members of the unofficial Pastimers Club; the pastimes in question being talking or doing what they feel like at the time. We don't just see them hanging out together; they interact with other students and a teacher they try to make their official adviser.

This looks like many other anime series but once one starts watching it feels different... and certainly delivers the laughs. The character designs are distinctive, some might say ugly, but that fits with the humour of the series. The characters are a lot of fun in their own ways; Olivia pretends that her Japanese is poor but in fact she is fluent... her English on the other hand is below average; Hanako introduces the others to some odd games and Kasumi isn't keen on games and enjoys writing yaoi stories. Overall I'd certainly recommend this hilarious series.

These comments are based on watching the series in Japanese with English subtitles.

Comedies like this are so hard to find!

It was best to express the directing shown in the original cartoon well.

Above all, each character was fun, so I could imagine what kind of comedy would come out if I was alone in the classroom.

Three high school girls are the main characters, but there is nothing more feminine than the comedy genre. But that's the point.

The original author knew that, so he would have shown us a laugh with such a directing.

What surprised me even more was that a new actor was cast in this work.

I was worried that it would be weird, but there was no need to worry.

Even if this work comes out in the 2nd season, I will be completely convinced.

I thought it was a cute Slice of Life but i got something better it return its wacky but not too out there to be annoying, and on top of all that, it has the best voice acting ever IMO.

The three protagonists of a girls only school end up forming the new "game club".

The 3 are really well sorted, most of the scenes happen inside of school, however the series is more oriented towards slice of life type, as the matter of discussions is almost any kind (for a normal teenager of such a school).

Laughing guarantee, Hanako is awesome.

What I disliked and why I can't give top score are mainly: 1. Maeda: a bit creepy and out of context, even considering a for-fun character, 2: If you watch the Sub. Version I think the dialogues are very fast.

In my opinion they also have a lot of potential improvement in terms of future content as many topics are just scratched in surface.

Pure comedy. No need to add anything else. This anime is guaranteed to make you laugh.
