Andy engages into pointed critique:

Kawai Complex: A fun main romance plot buried under a steaming pile of cliched secondary characters. By the time I had gotten to the end of this, for the meager payoff on offer, I'd slogged through episode after episode of masochist jokes, virgin jokes, slut jokes, evil-woman jokes, more masochist jokes, more virgin jokes, more slut jokes, more evil-woman jokes... they went on and on and there just wasn't any cleverness or variety there. Frankly it's a miracle I didn't drop this and I darned well ought to have. I blame my susceptibility to cute girls who like books. [Emphasis mine — Author]

I think this is a telling illustration for the importance of one's basic approach to any given series. First of all, if one expects to find side-splitting laugh in any given anime, he is going to be disappointed 80% of the time. Nichijou was a great example due to variety of its laughs: everyone liked something different and was left cold by the rest. So, what was lacking in cleverness and variety for one is going to hit the spot for the other. But beyond the humour, the question is, what is there to see in Kawai-sou? I took a ton of notes, but unfortunately what I extracted from it is unbloggable, except the praise for the art and animation.

UPDATE: Here's Peter's shot:

Bokura wa Minna Kawaisou is more enjoyable if you ignore the so-called love story and simply enjoy the dynamics of the people living in that house.

Pretty much what Tappan wrote, too: "[you] have to watch it for the jokes, not the romance".

Meanwhile, Highway, writing for Metanorn, makes Andy's point about "meager payoff" in a more tactful way by remarking "I could have used a bit more rabu-rabu".
