Synopsis

To the students of Karai High School, Nanako Yukishiro is a pretty, calm, and cute 16-year-old. However, Nanako is no ordinary girl, as she cannot speak! Instead, Nanako communicates through senryuu—17-syllable-long poems.

Sixteen-year-old Eiji Busujima used to be delinquent in his middle school years. However, he has since turned over a new leaf due to his newfound love of senryuu. Despite his menacing looks, Eiji gets along well with Nanako as a fellow member of the Literature Club.

Even though Nanako is mute, the adorable pair have no problem communicating with each other. Senryuu Shoujo is a light and relaxing story of two teenagers' daily lives.

This is literally Komi can't communicate, but in a different manner. Nanako can't speak so she writes poems and expresses herself and Komi writes in her notebook and expresses herself. I feel it is aimed at an audience who are really depressed and want their empty souls to be filled with something, just anything would do. It uses an entire literary genre as the focal point for its story, and not once does it feel contrived or like it's trying to maintain a shit just for sticking out. The opening and ending themes were great at the very least. It bodes well with the premise. ...

Mixed Feelings
I gave it a 6 just because, after I've read the manga, I came to the conclusion that this anime, despite its beautiful production regarding animation and colors, does not do justice to the original story.

In the anime, Nanako is a perfect girl: cute, cheerful and pure. In the manga she's all that, but also she's actually funny because some of her poems are hilarious, and sometimes misfortunes happen to her (like in one chapter that she injures her finger, and starts spitting incomprehensible poems like a broken printer!).

I don't understand why they decided to make such a short anime. It's cute but kinda forgettable ...

Preliminary (3/12 eps)
I dropped this at 3 episodes. I've enjoyed this type of "nothing really happens" Slice of Life anime many times but this is not one of them. It's very tropey/stereotypical. Seems like it's trying to be a romance comedy but I wasn't invested in the romance at all and didn't laugh once.

If you want something similar in terms of genre go watch Acchi Kocchi instead. It's also a nothing really happens tropey romcom, and while there's not really much to the romance aspect it at least makes me laugh.

Sincerely confused on how this has a score of 7.37 as of me writing this.
