Comedy is the most subjective form of entertainment, so I suppose you'll have to take my opinion with a grain of salt here, but I didn't find Seki very funny at all. It kind of felt like a less interesting version of Teasing Master Takagi. That series at least tries to change things up once in a while, but Seki follows pretty much exactly the same formula every episode. I guess I watched the whole thing because it's shorts, but I still feel like watching it all was a pretty big waste of time. Seki himself is pretty unlikable, but the main thing that kills the show is his neighbor. Seki does something silly in every episode, and Rumi reacts the same way in every single episode. It gets really freaking old over time. At the start of the show you kind of sympathize with her being annoyed by Seki all the time, but by the end she just feels like an idiot. Seki's antics get less exciting over time too. The author's not very good at coming up with crazy new things for him to do, so rather than getting escalations or interesting new character dynamics, it's just the same thing every episode. Blah.
