A light-hearted story of a normal, average day told from the perspective of the 5th graders themselves, That sums up Kyou no Go no Ni (Today in Class 5-2). It's a enjoyable show, with enough comedy to last you quite a long time. While there's not alot of actual "plot", there is however, the hilariously mischievous cast of 5th graders that we get to watch, being themselves. Story: (7/10 - C) There's not really a story, unless you count each day a different plot a story. There's three periods per episode, 3 different events unfold. Whether it's being locked in a storage room with the girl ofyour dreams or rocking out with a broomstick, each episode leaves you giggling uncontrollably. It's pretty straight-forward: 5th graders being 5th graders.

Animation: (8.5/10 - B+)
I was fairly impressed by the overall pacing of the animation. Each episode was very well drawn out, not leaving one detail untouched. The character designs were, to be blunt, cruddy. I'm not a fan of animes with characters with big eyes (Clannad is a prime example, mostly visual novels), which is an immediate thumbs-down.

Sound: (7/10 - C)
Other than the OP "Nisemono", most of the theme music was pretty bland, or just not enough. There what i call "School Beats", mainly used for shows such as this one.

Characters: (8.5/10 - B+)
Ryota Sato is your average kid, mischevious and always pulling pranks. Take that and multiply it by 6, and you have the whole cast (Minus some of the females). Most of the cast keeps this behavior for the entire show, but i really enjoyed it. Most shows have these same kinds of characters, but they end up failing because of one thing: It DOESNT work for them. It works for Kyou no Go no Ni because it's a school comedy with some ecchi overtones.

Enjoyment: (9/10 - A)
From start to end, i started watching Kyou no Go no Ni with one thing in mind: Let it stay light-hearted the entire way. It did, and i couldn't explain how enjoyable this show was. If you're looking for light comedy, look no farther. Kyou no Go no Ni is a pleasant experience, just right.

Overall: (8/10 - B)

The Good (+): Excellent Voice acting (All voiced by girls, btw.), Catchy OP song, something to lift your spirits with.

The Bad (-): Lack of character development for most of the characters. Cruddy character designs followed by mixed up Ending themes that randomly appear out of nowhere.
