Release Date: July 4, 2013
Studio: Nomad
Genre: Comedy, Slice of Life, School Life
Premise: First-year high school student Natsuki Ando jokingly declares that she wants to join the "Go Home Club" when prompted by her friend. To her surprise, the Go Home Club actually exists, consisting of a trio of eccentric second-year girls. Along with fellow first-year Karin Touno, Natsuki finds herself drawn into their weird world.
Verdict: I was ready to throw in the towel on this one (ugh, another vapid depiction of moe girls' school life?) until I saw that Nomad was responsible for Dokuro-chan. That same comedic ability is on display in this series as well. KKK (ironic, no?)'s appeal lies in how self-aware it is, often breaking the fourth wall and launching into separate sketches parodying other genres. This is where the show is at its best, including a brilliant gag where a wealthy character uses up the episode's animation budget. If Nomad can keep the laughs coming, this show will join the ranks of other sharp satires like Lucky Star and Yuru Yuri.
