It's basically Lucky Star / Azumanga Daioh, if you turned the Konata-Kagami / Kaori-Sakaki tension up to 11.
Just cute girls screwing around and being not so subtly gay - What more could you want from a "turn your brain off and have fun" series?
Love the characters' chemistry & characterization, and soft fanservice without being too overt.
Art style & animation's pretty basic, nothing to write home about.
The comedy hits just right - It's not laugh-out-loud funny but it will get you invested enough for a good smirk now & then.
If I had to give a negative criticism - the dynamics between Kei, Chiho and Yui are super blurry and hard to follow.
I'm honestly impressed at how much it manages to pack into such a short series.
I only wish it had a second season - and also that Kei would get los…

It's funny how short the synopsis for this anime is on MAL, because there's really not much to add. There's no deeper premise than the Data Processing Club; the show relies entirely on its quirky humor and how that results in specific dynamics between the characters (in addition to being a CGDCT with yuri undertones).
Apart from Yui as the "straight man" and Yuzuko as "the funny man", Yukari is an interesting and functional addition to the typical manzai (漫才) style present in the show. By being a bit of a bakadere who goes along with Yuzuko's antics, while not having herself the same eloquence and mania, she acts as an "instigator" that enables Yuzuko's rants to run just long enough until they meet Yui's necessary pullback to reality. She also often plays the whole of the heart that ties…

is really about making someone smile and laugh which is the true form of happiness,and the anime does a great job with that logic.,an anime with slice of life and comedy just like nichijou…the only difference is that yuyuhiki is a seinen anime and filled with more mature themes,so is this mature version of nichijou worth it..?
Honestly, at first I was very wary about Yuyushiki due to the fact that the anime and story itself is really, really simple. But, I made the right choice in giving this anime a try. Of course as the majority of Animes focusing on girls in High School, you've got a crazy girl, a dumb and slow girl and a girl that is the most sane out of the three. Though their really isn't a development to the plot, it is very enjoying to be able to see all the misadventures of the t…

Yuyushiki is a simple, fun, formulaic, and cute show where you can just enjoy the 'cute girls do cute things' trope without having to think about any of it. The story is exceedingly simple, and throws no real surprises one's way. A typical episode is simply following in the lives of Yui, Yuzuko, and Yukari as they go about their daily lives and engage in various hijinks. You have the themed setting, like summer break or new year's, the themed activity, like going to the beach or having a sleepover, and the one-episode arc of minor conflict, which can be as simple as it raining outside, or that they want to be friends with someone but they're embarrassed about it. There's also a running theme of sexual humor throughout, much of it directed at other girls, which is par for the course given t…

This anime (so far) is the best SOL anime I've ever watched. I had the luxury of watching it when it came out, and I've loved it ever since. It makes me SOOO sad its not more popular, but i guess i can think of it as a private little treasure. There are other animes like "daily lives of high school boys" thats kind of similar to it, but no SOL anime has made me laugh more than this one. Yuzuko is my favorite, followed by Yui, then Yukari, but i love all of them so much it saddens me to be reminded they arent real :( (i really want to be a part of their data processing club)
Story:
another way to summarize the plot of this show is "giving three girls edibles and recording there conversations" and its INCREDIBLY FUNNY. "when you think about what water is, it's hard to want to swim in it" (s…

Story 6/10
As a slice of life anime, there isn't that much focus on the story with every episode just being the man characters average daily life at school and their club meeting after school. By the way, none of the three girls know anything about data processing and they just spend their club meeting Googling random words.
What I liked about the story was it filled me with a lot of nostalgia from remembering when I was in high school and the pointless conversations me and my friends had like if Batman only fights crime at night, then wouldn't all the criminals catch on to that eventually and just commit crime during the day?
I think what would make the story better, however, would be if they shortened each episode to about 11 minutes in length because I often found myself checking th…

Yuyushiki looks about as bland and cookie cutter as you can possibly get with CGDCT in a school life setting as you can imagine, but with some clever writing, some interesting characters, and short but abundant doses of GL and yuri manages to somehow retain originality.
Story: 5/10
The story follows three freshman in highschool and their conversations about various topics that can switch mid-sentence and often without any indication of where the conversation is heading through a slew of inside jokes and humor even the audience will feel left out on even though they just watched the formation of these jokes. It's interesting enough to keep watching as this leads the girls to join the data processing club where they waste time by googling different topics they feel like talking about.

This is honestly my most favorite anime of all time, but it is definitely far from a masterpiece, even though I love it to death, I genuinely cannot give it more than an 8 (and this is a really biased and generous score).
I found Yuyushiki through mountains of 音MADs that exist for this anime on Youtube and as a fan of Generic-4-koma-Slice-of-Life-with-3-to-4-Highschool-Girls anime/manga, I think this one's enjoyable to watch. The plot of the story (as if there is any) is just 3 girls in a club where they just ask weird questions, look up Wikipedia or just hanging out in or out of school.
For the main characters, we got Yuzuko Nonohara - smart girl with a funny personality, Yukari Hinata - rich and kind hearted airhead with a cute laugh, and Yui Ichi - the typical tsukkomi character (aka…

Yuyushiki is, without a doubt, the masterpiece of this generation. Now, I may be biased in that statement, as I may enjoy this series over all others, but there is very good reason for this. I also do believe myself to either be the most, or least qualified to write a review, for I have watched this series, no less than 15 times.
Let's start with the bad parts. The art is not perfect. While the art style is perfect, sometimes the drawings on Yuzuko's could be more refined and fit her character more. This is the only minor complaint I have. Otherwise, the cheerful and plain but not boring art keeps the series alive, but does not distract so much as to take away from the experience.
The story is exactly what one might think of it to be. Three girls in high school, making jokes and laughin…

if I had a nickel... Ehh Hmm, That aside, Yuyushiki was exceptionally good despite the overused character types. I think my favorite thing about the show was the characters. Yuyushiki is full of common "archtypes" and have "typical" character personalities that are as stated before, overused. So I had a very difficult time at first, maybe around episodes 1-5 to get into the show because of this. That aside, what I found great about the characters was that it turned out to be one of those shows where despite their character types, the girls still managed to maintain their own unique individuality, along with being really cute no matter what they are doing. They are likable for the most part, annoying at times however the charact…

I have made a video review of Yuyushiki, available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0KQY24homk
But for those of you not interested in watching the video, here's the text-version of my review:
At first glance, Yuyushiki seems to be about as standard as they come. There isn’t much of anything to the characters’ personalities outside of the basic Boke/Tsukomi slice-of-life relationship. And there’s nothing exciting or interesting about the setting, which really is just a highschool. But as I watched more, its unique traits began to shine through. Yuyushiki has a special sense of humor in the slice-of-life genre in that most of the jokes come right out of the dialogue between the characters. Most shows rely on putting their characters in bizarre situations or using an over-the-top anima…

I was a bit curious about this one. When I jumped on board, the first thing I noticed was how similar it was to Lucky Star. But, BOY, did that QUICKLY change.
Right off the bat, the anime starts off awkwardly with the main protagonist, Yuzuko, being awestruck by a cat on a motorcycle. From there, the progression of weirdness slowly, but surely, finds its way to make you laugh your ass off right off the first episode.
The last anime I watched that was enjoyable right off the bat was Pani Poni Dash, so this anime ALMOST came close to perfect scores. But, upon further analysis, it still did not live up to the level of enjoyment I had from watching that anime. The weirdness is factored in very well, though. The characters make the anime so good that the setting almost does not matter, though…

Occasionally entertaining dialogue between characters is a hallmark of slice of life series. In Yuyushiki's case, the series consists almost entirely of that. Compound it with the fact that characters are constantly either in/near school or in Yui's house, and you get a considerably static anime.
Even in Lucky Star, commonly criticized for having bland dialogue between characters, or in Joshiraku, which pokes fun at itself for being made into an anime although it's a dialogue-heavy series; there are numerous occasions where characters are shown in environments that differ from the usual school/house setting (shops, school trips, camping trips, city trips, other outings, the beach etc.). The change of environment both presents new dialogue material to the cast, and gives something to look…

Boke and Tsukkomi: The Anime
It may not have many ROFL moments, but Yuyushiki gave me more sharp chuckles than any other anime I've seen. It kept a smile on my face through every episode. And the characters have that quality that makes you laugh just by looking at them. Not because they look funny, but because they have a certain quirky charm to them.
I've heard the show likened to a group of crackheads formulating ideas and laughing at theirselves, and I'd have to say that's pretty spot-on.
Of course, this is a slice-of-life, so don't expect much plot or any deeper meaning behind anything. Even the premise of the show -- about girls being in a data processing club -- is just barely touched upon. This anime is really about three goofy friends and their often nonsensical conversations. M…

Hmmm... I'm not sure what should I think of this anime.
I stumbled upon Yuyushiki searching for something similar to my high school/SoL/comedy favorite, Azumanga Daioh. So I gave this a shot. And I watched the whole thing through. Does that mean I liked it? Well... let's say I did, but...
We have three high school friends: Yukari, Yuzuko and Yui. Yui is mature and rational (well, most of the time), but the other two are everything but that; they're silly, random and pretty weird. They talk about most random things, that sometimes lead to pretty banal conversations.
Okay, so what did I like about Yuyushiki? First, it's the cuteness of the girls, especially Yukari, who's my favorite. Then, it's their ability to make every conversation silly and funny. Even when they talk about dark themes…

~Just kidding Just slipped out...~
Yuyushiki sat on my PTW list for a considerable amount of time.
Why?
Well i hate to judge a show by its cover, but when i'm looking for possible anime to watch: the cover, blurb and some words from strangers are all i generally have for investigating...
Yuyushiki is a prime example of an anime that can't be fully expressed by words. At a glance, many will be deterred from the relentlessly rehashed premise of "a bunch a schoolgirls being schoolgirls" - combine this with a cartoon-esque animation style and a vibrant colour scheme, and yeah, you've got pretty much every Slice of Life ever...
In terms of competition, Yuyushiki has to stand out above the rest with something unique, to really get credit where credit is due - and its because of this formula…

A normal school life is a boring school life. But you will always have those friends who make it fun and interesting with occasionally going so far off the original conversation topic you don't even remember how it started or how it got so random. Regardless, it's a time you wont forget.
The story of Yuyushiki could not me more of a typical school slice of life story. Apart from the overly random pieces put throughout the anime, it could not be any more of a normal life story of the high school lives of the three main characters from the start of their first year until the start of their third year. Nothing major ever happens and the entire anime as its filled with that of what starts out as a normal conversation and always ends up getting out of hand, sometimes in ridiculously humor fill…

what I like about Yuyushiki anime:
-Slice of Life - Comedy combo.
-good humor, very good humor.
-it's slice-of-life-ness is very good.
other aspects:
-Story (7/10): it's a slice of life! not much story, but that's how a slice of life should be!, if it has a deep story, I would lower it's score.
-Art (8/10): not bad, really, not bad...
-Sound (7/10): I can't say much since I don't pay attention to it's sound. well, they're not bad, if they are bad I should have noticed it, and if they are very good I should have noticed it too. at least, it's got a good opening song.
-Character (10/10): it's good, very good actually, but, that's not what makes this anime great.
-Enjoyment (10/10): well, I just enjoyed this anime very much.
what makes Yuyushiki a great anime is it's great humor, and also i…

Content- As of now the anime only has 12 episodes,with a possible second season eventually,Yuyushiki is based off a manga that uses the 4-panel design of comics as seen in many other mangas of the same genre. speaking of genre this anime is more of a peaceful anime with little conflict at all,and at times its just a playful joke or the characters annoying each other.Yuyushiki is a slice of life,that not only takes place in school but outside as well,some…

I really liked this anime more than its slice of life predecessors, and I feel like there's reason behind that.
Story: 7/10
The story is your usual slice of life anime plot. The plot was in the synopsis, so I'm not going into detail. The story has its usual setting at school, and in a school club, to be exact. I wouldn't suggest skipping episodes, as new characters appear throughout.
Art: 7/10
These character designs are pretty adorable. They match the characters' personalities. This anime has a very happy feel, and the lighter colors and cute characters help establish that.
Sound: 9/10
I really liked the opening of this anime, and the fact that the seiyuus provided the vocals for the songs in the anime only made it better because they were able to put their own character's voice tones…
