I'm watching it via CR. I like it. It's one of the better spring series for me. Like what you said, it's just fun to watch.
The other series this summer (and some continuing from spring) that I like are Hanasaku Iroha, Natsume Yujincho S3, Steins; Gate (which finished up yesterday), Blue Exorcist, Usagi Drop, Beelzebub, and Tiger & Bunny.

It's a great show, but it makes me feel like a pervert for enjoying it -- seriously, try explaining the premise to someone. "Well, it's about a bunch of 14 year old lesbians..."

I'm reserving judgement on Hanasaku Iroha until the finale. The show's been seriously disjointed -- a lot of the recent episodes focusing on character development feel like they should've come a lot earlier -- and I need to see the shape of the whole story before I can assess it.
I'd also throw Kamisama Dolls on that list. The first few episodes were disappointing, but it recovered itself marvelously and even managed one of the best eps I've seen this year.

:lol:
I was gonna write a brief description in my first post and it kept sounding kinda pervy. But despite the "14 year old lesbians" stuff, the show is just so light and charming. It's really easy to watch and doesn't weight you down with heavy/emotional storylines. I wish there were more shows like this.

I've got these 3 on my Crunchyroll queue. I think I'm going to follow-up YuruYuri with Moritasan wa Mukuchi (http://www.crunchyroll.com/moritasan-wa-mukuchi) which looks fairly similar.

I know I will have a hard time describing it.

Very valid point here. I still like series nevertheless (so far).

I'm not liking this as much as the ones I have mentioned. Though it's still much better than some of the other CR/NicoNico streaming summer series (the likes of Blood-C).

Moritasan wa Mukuchi is okay for what it is...it's just way to short. As for Natsume Yujincho Season 3, it's probably a good idea to watch the previous seasons if you haven't done so already. Steins;Gate starts very slowly (for some people). The second half or so gets much better.

I just noticed it's only 3 minutes per episode. So I guess that won't take too long.

Guess I missed the announcement last week. But it looks like YuruYuri is getting a second season.
:banana:
The official website for the Yuruyuri television anime series and original manga creator Namori confirmed on Saturday that production on a second television anime season has been green-lit. The announcement was first made at the Yuruyuri event that was streamed on the Nico Nico Live service on Saturday.
According to the official Twitter acount for the anime, the first key visual art for the second season, titled Yuruyuri♪♪, will be published in the March issue of Ichijinsha's Comic Yuri Hime magazine (the home of the manga) on January 18.
Crunchyroll Adds Second Season of "YuruYuri" Anime (http://www.crunchyroll.com/anime-news/2012/06/15/crunchyroll-adds-second-season-of-yuruyuri-anime)
Picking up right where we left off with the Amusement Club, Crunchyroll is adding the second season of YuruYuri to its summer lineup. The original cast returns for season two, as does director Masahiko Ohta (Rozen Maiden, Minami-ke).

Those last two episodes were great. "The Akari Who Leapt Through Time (http://www.crunchyroll.com/yuruyuri/episode-11-the-akari-who-leapt-through-time-601561)" was really sweet. And the final episode "Good Bye Protagonist, Until We Meet Again (http://www.crunchyroll.com/yuruyuri/episode-12-good-bye-protagonist-until-we-meet-again-601563)" was non-stop hilarious.
Hope there's a 3rd season coming.
