Mondaiji-tachi ga Isekai kara Kuru Sou Desu yo?

[Kraco]

Problem children are coming from another world, aren`t they?

"Sakamaki Izayoi, a boy bored with the entire world, one day receives a letter, with the following wording:

"This letter is for those of you with many troubles and extraordinary powers. If you wish to see how far that power of yours will take you, cast aside your family, your friends, your possessions, and come to our Little Garden."

The moment Izayoi opens the envelope, he is transported to an alternate world. There, he discovers that two other problem children were transported by letters as well — a taciturn girl named Kasukabe You with a cat, and a beautiful yet haughty girl named Kudou Asuka. A girl named Kuro Usagi (Black Rabbit) summoned the three to her presently unnamed (No Name) community, giving them a chance to participate in the Gift Games... well, and to use their gifts to help her weak community regain reputation, name and banner from the Demon Lord, who took those away in a Gift Game." -AniDB

I'm sure I didn't even have a look at this during the season preview (and neither did anybody else, I bet). I watched the first ep back when I happened to have a moment with nothing else to watch and the ridiculous name (another victim of the random name generator, as Sankaku puts it) caught my attention. To be honest the description doesn't really do much honour to this show; when you think of a problem child, after all, you probably think of somebody who annoys the hell out of you. So, that ought to be the first thing I correct here: The main characters aren't actually so much problem children as they are badasses unsatisfied with their previous life. Especially the dude. He's, so far, one of the best main characters for a while: A smart, cunning, and powerful jerk looking for amusing challenges, and he's not above manipulating others to find that pastime. To be fair, I don't really expect the show to make him a heartless bastard, so probably he will gain some shounen flaws... umm... characteristics, but I hope he won't change too much.

In case I left something ambiguous, at the moment I'd sooner drop any other show but Chihayafuru or Minami-ke to keep watching this. In fact I watched the first three eps for a second time because they were so amusing. I especially enjoy Kuro Usagi's (the bunny girl in the pic) reactions to the stunts by the summoned trio. It's so amusing to watch her alternate between dispirited and thrilled.

The main character dude, Izayoi, is voiced by Asanuma Shintarou (Tsuda of Seitokai Yakuindomo, Zeo of One Piece, Takeru of Minami-ke) and he's acing the role. Kuro usagi is excellently acted by Nomizu Iori (Haruna of Kore wa Zombie, Nymph of Sora no Otoshimono), Asuka (the non-bunny girl in the pic) is actually voiced by a half-Australian Bridcut Sarah Emi (hardly any other roles to mention), and You is voiced by Nakajima Megumi (Ranka Lee of Macross Frontier).
