Mixed Feelings
Mahoraba is definitely an interesting anime, on the surface, it looks like nothing more than a slice of life, typical, boring anime with no plot and uninteresting characters. After watching it, I was pleasantly surprised by it actually.

Story, 7/10: There really isn't a main plot to the show, instead they supplement it with some small stories that may or may not come back in later episodes. The show focuses more on characters backgrounds, which adds to the stories as well. That being said, the pacing can be a bit off some times, certain things that occur do so very suddenly, sometimes with little to no resolution.

Art, 8/10: Everything in this category fit the show pretty well as it really elevates the overall tone. They also use what I believe is called 4 koma, which I feel is used perfectly.

Sound, 7/10: I don't really have much to say about the music, I think if fit the cuteness of the show well.

Characters, 8/10: Probably the strongest part of Mahoraba is its characters, they all developed, and have some very complicated backgrounds. Mostly Kozue, she has MPD and instead of being shunned, made fun of, or looked down upon, the other characters in the show actually care about her other personalities as if they were separate people.

Enjoyment, 7/10: I liked it, normally something I don't watch and probably one that I won't watch again, but it is fun and cute. Characters were the best part in my opinion.

Overall, 7/10: Its definitely not like other shows that have similar concepts, the characters in particular are very well done, I do feel however that some things were left out, the ending of the show felt like a bit of a letdown. . But I recommend it.
