Uchi no Kaisha no Chiisai Senpai no Hanashi

Cute little show, does not do anything new with the story but it oozes cuteness

The relationships depicted in the show are quite exagerated, more so than most shows of its type, but the writers certainly had a way to go about it to make it all feel fun.

Not much else to say honestly, animation is pretty alright, characters are fun.

One gripe I do have with it is that the side characters hardly get explored, while the two main characters are a tiny bit too bland to really make you trully care about them, if the main couple was a bit less cliché or the side ... characters were a little more explores the show would have benefited greatly.

That's about all, it's a cute watch and it will certaintly be an amazing 2nd monitor show when i get around to needing something on to focus on my work.

"My Tiny Senpai" attempts to capture the essence of a slice-of-life romantic comedy, but unfortunately falls short of creating a truly engaging narrative. The series revolves around a promising premise - the dynamic between the titular characters in a charming, everyday setting. However, the execution leaves much to be desired, ultimately resulting in a lackluster viewing experience.

One of the most glaring issues with the show is its dearth of interesting characters. Despite the potential for vibrant personalities and unique quirks, the cast feels disappointingly one-dimensional. The character development appears to be an afterthought, leaving viewers with little to invest in emotionally. As a result, the ... supposedly endearing moments lack the depth needed to resonate with the audience.

The central flaw in "My Tiny Senpai" lies in its failure to deliver on the romantic promise that is fundamental to the genre. While the concept of a romantic comedy suggests a delightful blend of humor and heartwarming love stories, this series struggles to strike a balance. The romantic elements feel forced and lack the genuine chemistry required to make the audience root for the characters' relationships. Instead of witnessing the blossoming of love, viewers are left with a tepid connection that fails to evoke the intended emotions.

Another aspect where the series stumbles is in its treatment of age-appropriate norms. Despite its slice-of-life setting, "My Tiny Senpai" tends to shy away from addressing the real issues and challenges that individuals in the depicted age group might face. The narrative feels overly safe and fails to explore the complexities of relationships in a meaningful way. As a result, the series misses an opportunity to resonate with its target demographic and provide a more relatable experience.

While "My Tiny Senpai" is undeniably cute, the cuteness alone is not enough to salvage the overall lack of substance. The tameness of the humor and the reluctance to delve into more mature themes make the series feel overly mild, bordering on bland. In a genre that thrives on capturing the intricacies of human relationships, this series falls short of offering anything truly compelling or memorable.

In conclusion, "My Tiny Senpai" is a rom-com that, despite its initial promise, fails to deliver on multiple fronts. Lacking interesting characters, a genuine romantic connection, and a willingness to explore the norms of its age group, the series ends up being too mild to leave a lasting impression. While it may have moments of charm, they are not enough to elevate the show beyond mediocrity.

“My Tiny Senpai” is what happens when You want to write an adult romcom but have no idea how adults act.

The show revolves around two idiots that have the personalities of teenagers despite being, supposedly, adults. Shimozaki is a new hire in a company. He’s kind and… not much more. He has no hobbies and verbalises no interests, he’s just plain white bread in human form. The other is his senpai Katase - fun sized, big breasted, cheerful young woman who loves the company's mascot. So yeah… she’s just a little bit better than her kouhai.. Both are into each other and both have communication ... skills worthy of an ameba.
Along for the ride are their manager - Akina, who schemes to get them together and Shimozaki’s childhood friend Hayakawa - an otaku who tries to hide her hobbies. Everyone has one trait turned into a pseudo personality.

Like almost all romcoms this show goes nowhere. Despite having some scenes that should have long term consequences, they don’t and the show ends maintaining the status quo between the characters. Ok, that’s not totally true. They change the label they use… and nothing more. They act the same and the show even acknowledges that. The most annoying thing is that the secondary characters get more development than the main duo.

Despite having a workplace setup the characters act like they are in highschool. There is little here that could convince me they are adults. There wouldn't be a problem if they would act like that after hours but they act like that the whole effing time. Inferring from the way they act I have a hunch that the writers wanted to write a highschool show but were forced to change that by someone. I refuse to believe that this writing is the effect of any kind of long term plan. The show even acknowledges their strange, for coworkers, dynamic, but being self aware doesn’t change the fact that it’s still subpar writing. For effing sake, You even get the same shitty tropes you see in every highschool romcom: taking care of a sick love interest, hot spring episode, characters that could avoid 80% of problems with just a little bit of communication skills and even getting drunk with chocolate.

Calling this show “lazy” and “unoriginal” would be an affront to most lazy and unoriginal anime from the last decade. This show has little to no creativity. Everything in here You saw in (hopefully) much better shows.

I’m gonna be honest. I can’t recommend this show with a clear conscience. I guess if you've never seen any kind of romcom anime You could find it entertaining, but there are buttload better romcoms out there. This one isn’t worth Your time unless You have a very specific interest in small, busty, overly cute women.
