Comments:
This one is obviously done by the same animation team that animated
Azumanga Daiou. Some of the techniques seem to have rubbed off from
Azumanga Daiou even. It's not super high detail like expensive cell
animation, but it's good enough, and the method works well for this
kind of anime. Domiko scenes look even better than the Nanaka 6/17
scenes because the cell-less animation technique is better suited for
Domiko's simple animation style with extravagant colors. Nanaka 6/17
also has fairly simple animation style, but the colors aren't as
extravagant.
Obviously, the original manga goes a lot further, but I think they
chose the right combination of episodes and themes to animate. It's
not too messy like the manga story and it stands well on its own. I
really liked the casting of Nanaka (Horie Yui), Nenji (Seki Tomokazu),
and Amemiya (Hisakawa Aya) for the CD Drama, so I was unsure about the
casting changes for the anime. Horie Yui does Amemiya in the anime
instead. I think Hisakawa Aya was better as Amemiya. Horie Yui was
great as Nanaka, though, so I can't imagine why they changed the
casting. I like the casting change for Satsuki (CDD:Ohtani Ikue,
Anime:Nazuka Kaori) and Kuriko (CDD:Miyamura Yuuko, Anime:Nogawa
Sakura), so it's not all negative. I really like Ohtani Ikue and
Miyamura Yuuko, so it's a surprise of sorts. I don't really know
Nazuka-san very well.

just cute ;)
