Watched it earlier this year and loved it. Maybe it was because it had a lot of seasons, but it was really fucking good. Don't rush it, enjoy it, anon.

I agree with this guy, Hidamari Sketch is my favorite anime, I watch it at least once a year.

>What are your thoughts on Hidamari Sketch?
Disappointed.

It's hard for me to really pin down exactly why I didn't like it. I agree that the cuts and atmosphere were far better done than something like the Azumanga anime. (In my opinion, Azumanga botched up because its pacing was quite poor.) However, it all just felt too... irrelevant? Not irrelevant as in meaningless, but irrelevant as in nothing really happens. It's not even a show where the characters run into and have to deal with daily problems in their lives, really. It's just a show where they have their lives.

It felt dull, without much of anything happening. Even the manga at least had some concerns to address, moreso than "I found this sketchbook in the trash, I wonder who it belonged to?"

I mean, if that's what people like, then fine. It's not poorly done. But there just isn't really much content there.

>>158334267
I don't remember this scene. That's a cute Yuno.

I want to rewatch it but
>4seasons

>>158339497
You don't have to rewatch all of it, just watch an episode every now and then. It's not like there's a plot or anything to keep track of.

Anyway, that's from the first episode of x365.

Rewatch it in chronological order.
I'm doing that right now in a pretty slow pace and it's really fun.

>>158334267
HidaSketch is one of the last good shows SHAFT made. I wish they'd stop suckling the Aniplex test and get back to creativity.

OPs and EDs always made me happy. I especially loved "Mebae Drive."

>>158339588
What's the chronological order?

>>158339585
Thanks I'll rewatch x365 just for that scene

>>158339385
I think I can respect that criticism but yeah I think I and a lot of the fans of the show enjoy it for exactly that element. If you're anxious or lead a stressful life a show like this can be a fantastic way to unwind with a few drinks.

You now realize all Hidamaris need to work as hostesses to fund their art studies.

They are surprisingly mature for a bunch of middle schoolers, though.

>>158339870
Most of them have pretty rich and supportive families.

>>158339946
They're in high school, so they're 15-18.

Yuno and Hiro would make great girlfriends.

While Miyako would be the worst girlfriend ever

The first season is pretty mediocre and suffers from a lack of animation but x365 is a masterpiece.
The next two seasons get kinda bloated with underdeveloped characters but they are still great.

The first episode of x365 is still my single favorite episode in all of anime.

It's probably been 1.5 to 2 years since I've seen this.
I guess it's time to watch it again.

>>158340212
If you watched S1 with TV subs, go grab a DVD/BD version (JP DVDs, the US ones fucked up and used the wrong masters for some eps somehow).
This was when Shaft was making DVDs great again by redrawing literally everything.

It gets better after the first season. I'm not sure how to explain it, less artsy I guess? More structured. It's still the same very slow speed but develops more heart I guess.
And there's some really emotionally hard hitting episodes sprinkled throughout.
Hidamari holds a special place in my heart among SoLs for just how very slow paced it is. And how nostalgic and comfortable the setting is.
