Tsurezure Children

I'm don't usually write a review about an anime but if i do i make it brief. So Tsurezure ends up with the Characters Takano x Sugawara and Chiaki x Kana. I know you guys are unsatisfied about the ending because it doesn't really end the story about the other lovers. Although it's an 12 mns Anime it actually pretty amusing and fun to watch but if I'm gonna say something i highly recommend to you guys to read the manga if you want more romantic scene and there are other characters that is in the manga but not showed in the ... anime and they're pretty interesting too, I'm talking about other lovers and a partner for those who doesn't have a partner (ex.Motoyama, Tomomichi). Anyways this Anime is one of my favorites this season despite that it leaves us hanging, you might wanna consider reading the manga.



PS: Ryouko and Akagi is my favorite couple <3

"12 minutes per ep and focusing on 4 different couples every ep? How in the world would that work?" That was my first thought before I started the show, and here we are 12 episodes later and I've become a self-inflicted diabetic BECAUSE OH MY GOD THIS SHOW IS TOO FLUFFY. (But with a tinge of angst too ;))

You'd think with so many characters and relationships and stories to tell with such limited time, how would they accomplish it? Won't it get all choppy and messy? Won't you feel detached from the characters? Well for me at least, I gladly answer no to the ... previous two questions. Tsurezure Children does a spectacular job of being a romance anime, and it does the audience a favour by shaving off all the unnecessary roundabouts and extra boring tidbits and surges straight to the good juicy moments of romance and fluff that we all came for. I guarantee anyone in the single squad will think "man, I want to fall in love" at least a couple times throughout indulging this show, it is that powerful.

What one might see as the show's possible biggest downfall of too many relationships, was crafted out to be the show's greatest strength, and that is the explorations of how silly adolescent relationships functions, their different dynamics and how people with different personalities are matched together and henceforth their cute interactions with each other. It really is a breath of fresh air and makes you want to root for them. There is no drama, no tragedy, none of that sad shit, just tons and tons of sugar and everything sweet. That's not to say its one-dimensional, because the show isn't short of heartwarming scenes that reached out to me emotionally.

But my intention here isn't to put in on a pedestal and market it as some masterpiece, because it really isn't, hence my rating of only 8/10. One of the issues I have with it (that really isn't its fault in the first place per se) but WHY IS IT ONLY 12 MINUTES LONG AND ONLY 12 EPISODES IN THIS SEASON??? So for fear of it only being a season long without a sequel, and given its current far from completion state, I can only give it such a score.

But nonetheless, I enjoyed myself very much and got a better glimpse of having a high school romance, something that I don't have and probably won't have xD

Tsurezure Children is one of the first anime's I've watched. I didn't think I'd like it when I first heard of it, but after the first episode I was hooked.

Tsurezure Children is about different couples at the same school. There are aorund 9 couples and every episode is only 12 minutes long, so they show 3 or 4 couples each episode.

That kind of bugged me, tbh. Some couples got a lot (and I mean A LOT) of screen time, while other couples only appear once or twice throughout the entire series. Because of that, I couldn't really get into some of the relationships.

However, I really ... liked how none of the couples (or characters for that matter) were the same. Yet all of them were shipable. That made up for the screen time-thingy.

This anime is really enjoyable and I ended up falling in love with it.

Was watching this while each episode came out each week. I ended up forgetting about it and just now finished it.

But this was a fun show that has some pretty awesome moments in it. Such as one of the characters sister being messed around with by the girlfriend.

While i do enjoy this and it's fun . The issue i have with it is two things.

1. The story doesn't have an actual ending for a lot of the characters. Such as the Student Council President and the Delinquent and more.

2. While it isn't really bad. It can be annoying how its not just one ... story in a row. We get one story chopped up into pieces over multiple episodes. This can be alright but for me i just wish we could watch all of one duo's story with it not being over the span of 12 episodes.

The show also has in my opinion two of the greatest couples in anime of 2017
AkagixRyouko and TakanoxTakurou

I really love these two groups. I would honestly love to see AkagixRyouko have their own story. They are really good on screen and funny. The other Duo is also pretty good. I don't know if they could do their own story by them self.

Really good story and is fun to just watch.

Tsurezure Children

Mixed feelings about this one. Its light-hearted attempt at depicting couples teaching each other the meaning of love is too brief. The show in general is very shallow. From the beginning we’re being introduced to, like what, ten to fifteen characters that navigate through high-school with this intent to ship themselves with someone: be it a long-time crush; a very close friend; or some acquaintance they just met by chance. I’m not buying into the premise. Worst yet, for a RomCom, none of the writers and/or producers found it appropriate to deal with rejection. They couldn’t be bothered with such topics i guess, as ... every single confession in this show was met with a positive response (there was one exception but that scene was dreadful). Which further secures my impression that Tsurezure Children lacked depth, or any other dimension for that matter.

Guys let’s start pointing out the elephants in the room here. Number one, this show is episodic. There’s no timeline. To that, no sense of progression: nothing is really being done. Secondly, the show deals with the goodness of loving relationships but the evolution of it is cut short. The show spreads itself too thin. Think about it...12 episodes; each 13 minutes in length for a dozen characters? Why set yourself up for failure? My guess is the writers thought it clever to “re-invent the wheel” here by providing for a narrative that tries itself different from the normal format used in RomComs. Nice try laddies, now try again. Given its limited airtime, and the lack of continuity from episode to episode guess what else the show lacked completely? Any form of interaction between the couples and the world around them. The series provides us with isolated incidents where only the two members of every couple actively participate; everything else around them stands still in the meanwhile.

For positivity however, I must concur that the show does provide for good humour. It’s funny and it made me laugh quite often. There was something to admire about the naivete these children demarcated, paired with their general awkwardness. The show made it interesting enough to show value in some regards, while creating disappointment in others. Although I might be bummed out by what Tsurezure clearly lacked, it was refreshing to take a scenic tour appreciating the simpler things that such anime series can offer. Moreover, some of the scenes, outside of being entertaining to watch, depicted some flare of marvel, however short lived it might have been. Whomever is keen enough to peer through all 12 episodes will come to find that the people having created this show are no amateurs. Which further makes me wonder why they didn’t take a leap further towards developing something that could have been more complete and substantive.

The premise of this anime is a unique approach to the romance genre. Instead of focusing on one couple, it splits off into various different ones. The episodes are very short, each about 12 minutes long.

Story: (7/10)
The story is a basic high school romance anime, except it focuses on various different couples rather than one, each with their own distinct type of romance. The lack of communication is the major cause of the conflicts, which I guess is realistic, as many high schoolers are not so quick to express their feelings for others. If you want a huge focus on a single couple then this ... may not be for you, as the amount of couples shortens the time they can have on screen each episode, those of which are already short for a typical anime (12 mins). The anime does not feature an all-encompassing conflict or story--each couple has their own path to follow. But this is carried out well; I did not feel like one couple had more or less time on screen than the others, and they were all shown often enough that there weren't any long gaps between each story.

Art & Sound: (7/10)
I put these two in the same category merely because there was not much I could say about them. The art style is very basic, not bad but not outstanding or unique, and the character designs were cute and distinct. It looks like what you would see from a typical anime. The voice acting was good and the music was enjoyable to listen to.

Character: (8/10)
The characters, while not totally unique in comparison to other anime, were very entertaining to watch! Each of the couples had great chemistry with each other, even with and maybe because of their differing personalities. I was able to root for each one of them.

Enjoyment: (8/10)
It was a very enjoyable experience! Although it was brief, since the show is so short. It made me laugh on multiple occasions and was a very simple story about high schoolers falling in love. Something good if you're looking for a wholesome time.

Overall: (7/10)
Overall, I would call this an entertaining anime to watch, although if you prefer anime with more originality...I wouldn't say skip this anime over entirely, but be wary. The show featured tropes that are present in other anime (little sibling adoring big sibling, extremely oblivious girl/boy keeping the couple apart, bad girl gets with good boy, etc). The uniqueness of this anime comes from the approach to its romance rather than the characters themselves, which isn't a bad thing! It's approach was unique enough that it created a sense of distinctiveness to this anime regardless of the tropes it used.

(the final volume for the source material should be out sometime this Summer - it's a good time to read the series if you hadn't already. And please, ditch this mess)

To simplify the issue: they removed half the cast through-out the series solely to focus on four couples - but in doing so, it removed 3/4 of what made "Tsurezure Children" so good in the first place.
And then BEYOND that, they chopped up scenes and mostly reorganized them so that the pacing was trash and ... wait, why is it only focused on two couples now? Wasn't it supposed to be four? Weren't ... there tidbits of a few other couples? What??


--

STORY (7/10)
The source material is nearly-flawless, if not completely so. If you want to actually enjoy this series - you REALLY have to go and read it. And then you might as well treat this adaption as a plague because, really, it was given so much to work with ... and then ignored everything that could've made this bearable. I'd far prefer a lower art score than a truly well-written series get treated as trash.
Oh, yeah, the reason it's a 7 is because they DIDN'T ADD ANYTHING to the story. They chopped it up horribly and glued them back in an inconsistent mess; minus 2/4 couples the opted to keep (Chiaki/Kana, Sugayan/Takano). If I didn't know the actual story from the source material, this series would have a story grade of 2/10. Because, yeah, no. No.


ART (5/10)
To be honest, I'm mostly biased because I dislike this overly-bright art style. It's not very fun to watch animated. But it was mostly consistent so that was nice. But, nah. Quite boring to look at. And very distracting without much shade variety.


SOUND (5/10)
It... was noticeably a poor budget. Half the reason I suspect they chopped half the series out was because they couldn't afford a larger cast. Which I can get, but it still sucks they didn't instead lower the art quality some for the broadcast so they could've tried doing a better job.
But yeah, the music and sfx were fine. Basic, but fine. Main issue was the mics - some lines were clearly said so low they came with static, some were so painfully close to the mic that it never sounded realistic, and even one line I recall was shouted so well that the (tiny) room's reverb was louder than the lines themselves. So it got distracting there, but the team DID choose good VAs for the roles they (eventually) animated.


CHARACTER (10/10)
THIS IS IN NO WAY THANKS TO THE ANIME ADAPTION TEAM - THE WRITERS HAVE NO PART IN THIS BECAUSE OTHER THAN CHOPPING THINGS UP TO HAVE A LACKLUSTER ADAPTION, =THEY= DIDN'T DO ANYTHING.
AGAIN: READ THE ACTUAL SOURCE MATERIAL BECAUSE THIS ADAPTION RUINED EVERYTHING SO GOOD ABOUT IT.


ENJOYMENT (2/10)
I'm being UNREASONABLY generous here. I... really couldn't enjoy it. They chose great voice actors, but the fact they removed so much of the source material for this... and then pretended they didn't do as such in the first and final episode... yeah, no. I don't trust this team. I feel personally attacked from watching this mess.

--

OVERALL (3/10)
Screw it - just avoid this series if you're able to read the comic. Everything that makes this series so good is hardly transferred into this adaption. Which is a shame BECAUSE THIS ADAPTION DIDN'T DO ANYTHING BUT CUT THINGS OUT. Oh, and they paced things horribly 'cause I guess they didn't know wtf direction to take this; should they include more cast, or include only the four couples? Short answer: I regret them making adapting this.

---

TL;DR: Ditch this adaption because nothing worth watching it for was included. Unless you absolutely only liked the source material for Chiaki/Kana and Sugayan/Takano. Then by all means, feel free to rate this 10/10 loll

All in all, I really loved the anime. It's a 10/10 for me. One of the best romance animes I have ever watched in my entire life. This anime touched my soul. Really, saying "I love you" is one of the hardest things to say and express. Expressing your love for someone can be stressful at times but still, it can't helped. You just wanna let that person know how much you care for them. All the couples in this anime had their own troubles and they had to find possible ways of conquering it. Honestly, I wish my high school life was like this. ... The manga has 212 chapters and not all the chapters have been adapted yet. I do not want to read the manga. It's more fun, enticing heart felt watching it. So please, I am pleading with the producers of Tsurezure Children to please adapt the remaining chapters into a new sequel season. That's the only thing that will make my life so much better now. Thank you. THIS ANIME IS LEGENDARY.❤️✨

This an exceptionally cute little series which sadly loses the bloom from its rose quite quickly. As an anthology of shorts, all on the theme of youthful romantic troubles, every episode has sweetness and hilarity served up on short order, without the need to watch a whole shoujo series for the payoff. A good build-up can make the moment of truth even stronger, but since everyone will naturally root for young love, the briefest stories, with lively dialogue and scenarios, can be sweetly moving.

It's to be expected that segments are of uneven quality and become a little forced and predictable by the halfway mark. ... Although the characters are commendably distinctive, different and include real standouts, their motives are essentially similar, and as slow to be progressed as if this was a 50 ep rom-com rather than a short series. In short this isn't a great rom-com like Torodora, but well worth a watch for discerning fans of short anime.

Similar to the show this review will be rather short and direct to the point.

The idea of the show is rather simple, boy loves girl or girl loves boy, and things get rather awkward for some reason. The show goes directly into rapid fire mod and introduces us to couples after couples right off the bat, although this may sound negative it turns out to be a rather enjoyable and successful formula. However, if you have watched any romance or comedy (that has some romance) show in general, then you have most likely already seen most, if not all, of the possible situations that ... the couples in this series are put in. The “problems” they face range from the couple being shy to being immature or even naïve at times, and like other romcom anime, characters would sporadically be placed in “embarrassing” situations.

The score that I gave the show by no means reflects the enjoyment that I had watching it. If I am to rate it solely based on enjoyment, it would be much higher than what I have written, because the series never failed to make me smile or make me feel relaxed; however, I had a few problems with it. The foremost being the characters, this is probably the first time I have ever finished a show without remembering the names of any of the characters. I never really cared to actually know what their names were, to begin with; most will argue that “It’s just a series of short gimmicks, you aren’t supposed to emphasize on who’s who”. Well I mean yeah sure, but at the end of the day, that makes the show lose a lot of its value (to me at least) because I will easily forget about it soon enough. Moreover, I don’t know why I could not binge watch the series, meaning I could not get myself to watch more than two episodes in a row despite the show being rather short (I waited till the show approached its end before I started watching it). Normally that would actually be a good thing because it would mean I am “brooding” over it, but in this case, I just felt I was getting an overdose of “wish-fulfilling pre-teen love”.

Despite everything, I really enjoyed the show and highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a rather “heart-warming” experience. For better or for worst the show does not try to become anything more than what is written in its synopsis. An easily digestible romcom that delivers its intended goals, and does not outstay its welcome.

For some reason, I kept jumping around whenever the confession or awkward moment happen and I kept jumping on every episode.

Heres why, the story is so straightforward you can easily finish it in less than 3 hours and that is a good thing if you're a busy guy like me.

If this the first time you've seen my review then you're saved because I'm not the type of guy who spoils the fun. Rest assured. But I'm that guy who always makes a review whenever I have seen a good anime.

People often forget how simple anime used to be and this one kinda embodies ... the classic feel that I used to have watching anime back in the day. You don't need a high budget, super drawn over the top, 30 minutes animation. Sometimes, we just need simpler things in life and that thing is Tsurezure Children.

The story is straightforward, the song is simple and the soundtrack is super good. That's all it is you need to know.

The bad part about this anime is that it makes you want more.It makes you want to know what happens to them after the anime ends. Sure, you could just read the manga but the feels are not going to be the same. I want to jump around every week whenever an awkward moment or embarrassing stuff happens. That's what got me to the show in the first place.

Overall, Studio Gokumi finally makes an interesting project. They often choose weird animation project. I don't know why but if they keep up this kind of anime project, they're going to be fine.

Drama,romance,comedy.

When I say drama I don't think as a hard to handle drama. Everything about it is cute and innocence.Easy to watch and relaxing.
Episodes are to short for serious plot and for that in mind anime is created perfectly.This isn't something to remember in few years but when you do remember, you will remember feeling of joy.For those who love: love and comedy, you can find your self in this anime.Anime is short and involved with few main character, plot doesn't become deep enough and for that I can see why someone wouldn't like this show.Personally,for this genre, I like more complex and deep plot ... but even that doesn't stop me for liking this anime.
One person after finish this show wrote:

Been enduring shits since first episode
but now I have enough....

THIS BRING ME THE FEEL OF LONELINESS TO A WHOLE NEW LVL!!! ლ(ಠ益ಠლ)
Every each one of the student are couples, and love is in the air
unique romance, and so much romantic vibes

Especially when they cheer each other...
NO BODY CHEERED AT ME IN SPORT FESTIVAL!! ( ͡°; ͜/// ͡;°)

and im here just watching daily anime at the corner of my room :'D

Yea that kind of anime xD

Pros.

Love,laugh and various of different characters will put you in younger days when everything was so simple and give you a answer and reminder what could happen if you know what other half thinks of you.

Cons.

Short episodes,not enough deep plot,no backstory.Nothing serious

This anime is fairly good. I like the story quite a lot. I won't spoil any of it here though, I guess i just have to talk about why i liked it so much.

You follow these characters around and watch them interract with each other, which makes them feel super real. I just can't get enough of social interaction because it is frankly something us anime reviewers don't get enough of so we instead watch fictional characters having more fun than us.

The story feels real. It is something that can happen in real life too, but never will. Again, I won't spoil too much because ... I feel like it will ruin the story. Frankly, just get some weeb friends and watch this together, you will have a blast!

Art is great. Everything looks great, the lightning effect are not overused they are only used in the perfect moments. The animation is fluid and it feels very cinematic. It is quite rare that animes are animated this good! I was disapointed in Attack on Titans animation and artstyle (very ugly, shaders everywhere and no good looking girls). But Tsurezure Children uses their resourses they have and use it to the 100% potential. Very few animes use this. It is not 100% perfect, it seems lacking at times but it is still very good.

Sound is good! The soundtrack is just amazing and the voice acting is really good too. Nakazama-chan is my favorite voice actor on the market. just listen to the soundtracks on youtube or dailymotion

characters are very well made and is probably the reason u watch this show. Very much like the story, i wont spoil the good parts. some characters seem a little lacking, but they make up for it later in the show.

Enjoyment. I enjoyed this show

overall very good i recommend this show to everyone that likes anime and want some good to watch this show. thank 4 the readz!

Desu Desu

Ah young love. Such a sweet but complicated experience...that I have yet to have. However, this isn't about me. This is about an extremely heart warming anime through and through that was, as I said before, sweet, hilarious, and enjoyable.

Tsurezure Children focuses on the concept of young love and how it affects adolescence. While not all of the romance was great and the writers definitely made it more dramatic than it actually is, it's still an anime that is worth attention for all romantic comedy fans!

Story - 7:

All I can say about the story is...they're all about love. That's right, "they're". Tsurezure Children story isn't ... just one story but a bunch of stories happening at once! They weren't anything monumental, but I can safely say that each story had personality with each situation being much different from the last! It definitely kept me engaged through and through. I was smiling, laughing, and cracking a few jokes here and there all from enjoyment! Of course, not all of the stories were great, but I'll go in depth about my feelings once we get to the character section.

One thing I'll say is that some the stories were definitely forgotten. Ones appearing for one episode, have little screen, and never showing up again for the rest of the series. I guess the other romances were able to hold me over, but I would have really appreciated it if we went more in depth with some of these tales. The 12 episode limit is a pain, huh?

Overall, the story or stories of Tsurezure Children are nice, relaxing, and hilarious to watch. Maybe hitting you in the feels here and there.

Art - 9:

The artstyle while simplistic still turned out to be very eye catching to me. Character's expressions were drawn very well, being able to evoke so much emotion, as they should be. Not much else I can say. The artstyle of this anime is an A+ in my book!

Sound - 7:

The music wasn't bad either. A relaxing, but soothing tone in each song fits perfectly with the show's theme. The opening had a real upbeat attitude to it, letting you know immediately that it'll contain a lighter tone throughout the anime. Overall, music to my ears!

Character - 7:

While the characters weren't anything special themselves, most of them were a joy to watch! Thanks to their varying personalities, each character always brought life from within my laptop's screen and the comical moments involving them were priceless, especially Katori, which I wish we got to know more about since he's always bringing a dramatic but fun attitude to what's currently going on. Most of them were very relatable as well. Some being extremely nervous and questioning their next actions which I can wholeheartedly relate to!

Speaking of wanting to see more of characters, some were completely abandoned unfortunately. Going back to what I said about the story, it felt like the staff making this were trying to put as much of the characters from the manga in as possible, but either left them alone after their debut episode or didn't appear at all. Also, I never read the manga. I did take a glimpse at a volume and noticed two characters that weren't in the anime at all! Hell, two characters who were in the opening for 12 straight episodes didn't appear until the final episode, but didn't provide them with their own story! It kinda felt like they were just shoved in there and hopefully it'll all work itself out. It did...to an extent and at a point where I wish we could see more of those two and other characters not shown in the anime.

**THIS IS WHERE I GET TO SPOILER TERRITORY! IF YOU WANT TO CONTINUE READING, SCROLL DOWN UNTIL YOU REACH ANOTHER CAPPED SENTENCE WITH TWO STARS NEXT TO IT LIKE THIS ONE**

Two characters who kind of pissed me off a little were the first couple introduced in the very first episode; Haruhiko Takase and his female heroine Saki Kanda. As seen in the episode 1, Saki accidentally confessed her feelings to Haruhiko right before moving on to the next couple. Now you can't tell me Haruhiko was dense as fuck because he obviously took notice. Haruhiko, she LIKES you! You KNOW that now! You LIKE her as well! CONFESS TO HER! Next time we see them, it's like nothing ever happened and I don't get it! WHY DIDN'T ANYONE MAKE A MOVE?! The author definitely dragged this out more than he actually needed to because he already established their love for each other and one of them just blurted it out, but the other is not doing anything about it and acted like nothing ever happened! What's worse, THEY NEVER GOT TOGETHER! This couple was a complete, misunderstood, mess! Most likely, this relationship goes deeper in the manga, but until I've read that, this was definitely my least very story out of all the others in here.

**SAFE! YOU MAY PROCEED READING TO MY REVIEW! HOPE YOU'RE HAVING FUN! :D**

Anyways, most of the characters were a treat to watch. Some were greatly developed and others were either severely underdeveloped, very poorly executed, or just gone like an irrelevant thought. Hopefully this gets a season 2 because I'd love to see more of these amazing characters, new additions, and improve others who I weren't so fond of.

Enjoyment - 8:

This is my 2nd time watching this anime and I still absolutely love it! It was funny, heart warming, and little bit emotional at times. Even showed some life lessons hidden within some of the stories like trying hard will get you somewhere and draw others to you or don't force anything or it'll all come crashing down, etc. I'm not sure what else I can say about this anime. Everything was such a pleasure to watch!

Overall:

Tsurezure Children is an awesome anime with memorable characters, fantastic moments, and will leave you missing every single element within it. Definitely recommend it if you're into romantic comedy, but if you also want an anime you can quickly binge watch, this is good too! Each episode is only 12 minutes long!

I'm praying this gets a season 2! I want to see more of these characters grow and see how their stories end, because some were surely left unfinished. Until then, I might pick up the manga if I ever get the chance! :D

Cute, funny and heartwarming. Glad it wasn't the usual cheesy and cliché kind of romantic high school drama.

Really nice storytelling - the way they put the different stories together was really good; and the same goes for when the characters of the various stories interacted with each other. Had a nice feeling when the main characters of some scenes were in supporting roles at the time that the protagonists' perspective changed .

I'm also glad that they didn't unnecessarily stretched the show just for the sake of bussiness gains - quality over quantity. It has the material for a future second season, and I hope they ... don't screw it up.

Another example of a brilliant short anime. The "Love, Actually" for otaku.

The overall premise is very simple: high schoolers learning how to fall and stay in love in their own different ways. Within those different ways, though, there comes the fragmented short stories carried by different characters whose one thing in common is they all happen to be pursuing education under the same roof. Admittedly, the whole thing may seem sappy at first glance but with excellent execution, the saccharine could become something genuinely sweet-- and Tsurezure Children did just that.

It is difficult to pick the best pairing out of the bunch because each pairing ... is relatable in their own way. However, Gouda-Kamine pair does manage to be the most grounded and realistic because it deals more into what happens after the classic love confession. Chiaki-Kana pair is totally represents that hilarious phase in life on which no matter what one does, friendship can truly ruin the possibility of romance. Takao-Chiyo pair is probably the most adorable as the two of them navigate the life irony of which "what is unlikely is not necessarily impossible". Nonetheless, there are pairs that, unfortunately, do not deliver the equally satisfying sweetness. Takano-Sugawara pair takes more screen time than other pairs but somehow their stories ultimately feel more anticlimactic. Kaga-Nanase storyline feels exciting yet it ends very abruptly. Lastly, there is that Casanova named Katori who, as more episodes roll in, feels like he has overstayed his welcome.

Is Tsurezure Children a good fixture? Yes. However, the fragmented structures may not be for everyone. Like a double-edged sword, the more we as the audience invest ourselves into one of the pairings, the more we crave for longer screen time for our favorites. Funny enough, this anime truly captures the reality-- that sparks always fly all too fast and that more romance always requires more time.

Tsurezure Children is unique. I wouldn't extend my review further, because of the time length of the series. But I absolutely enjoyed it.

Have you ever felt this thing when your watching an anime, your waiting for the episode to air just so that you can see your favorite character in action? Or to see them in screen-? That's what I felt after watching Tsurezure Children. I'd like to point out that Takano Chizuru and Sugawara Takuro is my favorite couple out of this series. I could very relate to her, I'm too shy to accept my feelings towards my crush, that I deny it. Of ... course, I'm not emotionless.

Well, I could just say that I really enjoyed this Anime and sadly I'm hoping for it to have a sequel.

I didn't have a lot of high expectations when I was diving into this, solely because I never heard of this anime before, and according to others post-review, they heard others say it's good, and this anime even got a good rating. My girlfriend and I decided to watch it so we did, and this is what I came out with.

I've seen romance and comedy and enjoyed my fair share. But Tsurezure is without a doubt, one of the most generic romance anime I have ever seen in my entire life. And ironically enough, this is coming from someone that just got back into the ... anime watching groove. The story is absolute garbage, and while it is blatantly obvious of the content you'll receive, what you actually watch doesn't make it anymore bearable.

Quite honestly, I think the Art is the only good thing about the show, but even that is sub par, and in a lot of aspects, it doesn't really stand out all that much, so that's not saying a whole lot.

There are only (in my mind anyways) 5 good characters, or at least characters that are some what memorable upon first impression. The others either fit the terrible cliche of "dense af", are bland with very little interesting personality at all, or they're just straight up annoying.

Honestly, there's just not a whole lot to say about the anime, but the execution of almost everything was just awful in so many ways. The atmosphere was really ruined in some cases because of how bad personalities are, and I'm all for opinions, but I don't see why people give this anime such a common praise. It's not really all that great and saying that it's great because it's romance/comedy isn't saying a whole lot. Nisekoi and Chuunibyou were both Romantic Comedy anime that was well executed, had really good characters, and the story wasn't just made from someone who wants to write the most generic romance story between people ever. This does not warrant a re-watch at all. Personally would not recommend this to anyone.

Story: So since there were a lot of stories in this anime it's hard to rate for a story as a whole. I just took into account each character's relationship and how their story/love actually developed. Most were really well done. There were some others that kind of got forgotten and the anime tried to bring them back later in the anime but I felt like it didn't work out.

Art and Animation: The anime seems to be pretty original art and animation wise. While It's not most people cup of tea, I highly enjoyed it. Very easy on the eyes and very enjoyable.

Sound and Acting: ... The music was really good and the voice acting was Perfect. No problems at all with the VA's for each character.

Characters: There is literally not one character that came close to being disliked in this anime for me I seriously loved them all and rooted for them.

Enjoyment: I thoroughly enjoyed this anime. If they made it 24 minutes but kept it the way it is with short 6-8 minute stories It would be better.

Overall I really enjoyed this anime. Highly recommended to anyone who wants a really good and funny romantic comedy anime. With nice bits of Slice of Life involved.

A really nice Romance and Slice of Life anime.

At first this anime could potentially be a little off putting for the following reasons:

1) The large amount of characters you are quickly introduced to
2) Episodes are only 12 minutes long
3) The jumps between character's perspectives

However, do not let the above get to you. After watching the first 2-3 episodes you will quickly adjust to this anime's style and will instead be praising it.

It has a unique aspect where instead of following a single protagonists point of view and events, instead it focuses on multiple couples within the same school and often times you could potentially see ... them mingle with each other.

This provides a much more in-depth look at the school and students as a whole instead of the single, narrow perspective of the more common stories in anime.

This anime quickly grew on me and I immediately fell in love. Although my time with each individual couple is short due to the cuts, i quickly felt attached to all of them and began rooting for and hoping to see more of my favourites. (Kana-Chan)

I would recommend that anyone who likes the romance genre to at least check this out and I hope you enjoy it as much as i have.

The only negative aspects i could think of were the three i already listed and would of loved it to have been full 25 minute episodes.
