It's not creepy because the writer is a guy.
It's creepy because someone is writing porn about you.

Ohana reminds me of me. I mean the part where she takes initiative in useless ways and relies only on herself despite not being particularly competent. Although I think she's more competent than I would be.
Good to see that the quality didn't drop from the first episode, and there was some pretty good dialog in this one too.
I seriously love this character and how she's written. Who's with me?
I like Ohana quite a lot, yeah. Minko continues to prove herself in need of a solid shot of common sense, as do mostall of the other people at the ryokan, but...
It's been fun.
By "solid shot of common sense", you mean "intense make-out session with Ohana", right?
Just so you know, your attitude is pretty creepy in the context of the show. Like, really creepy. I find myself having the urge to call the cops on you, despite the fact that i know this makes no sense.
Wait, why are we assuming that they'd stop with just making out?
Tumblr here.
If consensual lesbian sex between two 16 year olds is wrong, I don't want to be right!
(and yes, in light of what we found out at the end of the episode, this is really hilarious. I also don't care)
^^^Oh god. We're just as bad as the pervert writer.
Though, we're forumgoers discussing fictional characters, while in the context of the show he's essentially writing wank material about the sixteen-year-old girls who clean his room.

It's been fun.I'm with Clarste on this one, there will probably be a dozen, less creepy opportunities for you yuri goggled people, to... be creepy.
I think it's creepier than normal to see this kind of stuff(both in-show and with the yuri goggles) becuase Ohana is such a cute, very likeable and relatable character.
Also, Ohana must be the best combination of Cuteness, Moe, Hotness, and awesome personality ever. I always say that I love X character, mainly becuase of their actions, but that love is just me liking a character a lot, but she kind of get some romantic feelings out of me(yeah, I know, that is even creepier).

I like that her cuteness stems from her being defiant, particularly with her way of getting back at people by cooking their most hated foods, as opposed to her just being The Pollyanna.
And I was trying to make a joke there, but I guess Poe's Law was in effect...
Tumblr here.Actually, while she doesn't fit the flanderized trope itself, the show itself kinda reminds me of the original Pollyanna.
Yeah, that too. When you are perving over otaku-ish harem comedy characters, it's clear that the are basically animated hug pillows, but when she acts like a real person, it appears more similar to perving over a real person.

My imprsion was that it's not spring break yet, but that's soon.
"No, the Singularity will not happen. Computation is hard." -Happy EntAbout Ohana going to school: Since the manga adaptation has been out for a few months, the Wikipedia character list already has some characters from Ohana's new school. They'll probably show up one to two episodes from now.
On the subject of Ohana being relatable: yeah, this would be the best part of the show. Even if you aren't Ohana, then you know people who act like her (I do) and have seen her thought processes before (I have). She's more human that most anime characters I've seen for some time.
Whatcha gonna do, little buckaroo? | i be pimpin' madoka ficsThe incriminating page has supposedly been translated. If accurate, the "maybe he just borrowed their names" defense isn't gonna fly anymore.

RUN OHANA, RUN.
That's...pretty tame actually...
I wonder what they can even do with a mop?
"Every opinion that isn't mine is subjected to Your Mileage May Vary."^oh man so many things
oh jesus //christ//
that's not even //hot//
that's just like
horrifying
i feel like i need to take a shower
Whatcha gonna do, little buckaroo? | i be pimpin' madoka fics^Just remember that the fanfic takes place in what is essentially a shower while you take your own.*
Now try and get that out of your head after reading this!

"Every opinion that isn't mine is subjected to Your Mileage May Vary."Bathhouse != shower, and I had already taken one before writing that. So ha.
Whatcha gonna do, little buckaroo? | i be pimpin' madoka ficsThis might just be my favorite of the season.
Imoutos are the best! Follow at your own risk. Tumblr.I'm sad to admit that this is my favorite of the season, I wanted that to bo Nichijou, becuase it has everything I want on a show, like if it was made just to please me, but this is truly amazing.
Great writing, interesting plot, likable character, simply amazing show.
Does anyone knows how many episodes this will have?
I'm a little confused by the timeframe, actually. Is this taking place during summer break? Weird for her not to have to go to school yet.
I'm just waiting for the EPIC WAITRESSING show in the OP.
(also, Ohana really should be the scullery maid, not Minchi. Though maybe they tried having her as a waittress and she kept telling the guests to "Shinei")
