Bokutachi wa Benkyou ga Dekinai!

Under Nariyuki Yuiga's devoted tutelage, his classmates Rizu Ogata, Fumino Furuhashi, and Uruka Takemoto are finally pulling average test scores on their worst subjects. But time is ticking, and there is still a long way to go before the three geniuses of Ichinose Academy are ready for their upcoming university exams. Meanwhile, the girls still struggle to balance the pursuit of their dreams with their growing affections for their unsuspecting tutor.

Joining them are Mafuyu Kirisu, a teacher with strong views about education and talent because of her past as a rising figure skater, and Asumi Kominami, a graduate from their school aiming to attend a national medical university. With these two additions, the group of six is livelier than ever before. Completely caught up in hilarious antics with his new friends, Yuiga finds that his last year of high school now includes a lot more than just going to class and studying.

Before I begin I want to say this. Just go read the manga. The anime was good up until the ending of the last episode. They completely skipped many important stories from the festival up until where the manga is currently (Chapter 140). Even though I love this anime, I don't want others to watch this and see the terrible ending and thinking that's it. Just go and start the manga from the beginning. It is an amazing read. The rest of the season episodes 1-12 were all fine. But the ending of episode 13 just kills it. If you want to get a good ... experience then when you are watching episode 13 you can stop watching after a certain moment. You'll know it when it happens.

Mixed Feelings

What about another HAREM to end the year?

·Story: 5/10

Bokutachi has all the facts that exist in the harem/teenager genre. It has cute girls with different personalities, a mc that is gentle with them and the typical settings of the school and slice of life genre.

Not being original, but not being bad is how I would define the plot of this anime. You would not find anything apart from the mythical school trips, school festivals and students that study together to pass the exams.

·Art: 6/10

Being an harem just established my expectations for its art pretty low, and yeah, it was as I expected to ... be.

The general art scenes are pretty fair and I think that both companies Arvo and Silver did a pretty good job, as they are pretty new (From what I've seen on MAL).

Obviously, the ecchi scenes get better in terms of the art but not too much. This made me reconsider the mark from a 7 to a 6.

·Sound: 7/10

Effects were good but nothing more. During the whole anime I could only hear some music during romance/ecchi/stressful situations and they weren't too spectacular.

OP is what made me give it a 7 as I liked it pretty much. If you like happy and energetic OPs, this one is for you.

·Character: 6/10

As I said, you have some cute girls with different personalities, but not too distant from each other. Uruka, Fumino and Rizu are the ones that have more emphasis during the second season and all of them have that type of insecurity at the time of talking with Nariyuki, which shares this point with them.

In the case of Mafuyu and Asumi, the relationship between them and Nariyuki doesn't advance too much, so don't expect nothing from this two cute girls.

·Enjoyment: 7/10

I like happy and relaxing shows so this one came perfectly to me during winter. If you are stressed and you don't want to see any action or thriller anime this serie is perfect for that situation.

·Overall: 6/10

At the end, bokutachi has been one of my preferences to see this winter. Hope you enjoy it as well!

Thanks for reading!

SPOILER: The reason I don't give it a higher mark is because as all harem animes, it doesn't give a clear final and you won't know who is the girl that he ends with. It seems Uruka won but it isn't completly clear so..... LETS GO READ THE MANGA!

Have you ever watched an anime and thought to yourself that such things like "developed characters that experience growth throughout the series and end in a different place from where they started" or "jokes that are written and develop onto each other too leave many laughs to come in future watches" maybe perhaps "a story that actually gives the audience this thing called PROGRESS" are becoming such a bore for you as a viewer? Well do I have got good news for you then. Bokutachi wa Benkyou ga Dekinai! is the show for you because it has not only done away with all of those ... pesky things but instead has substituted it with such wonderful things as... .... well nothing.

I'm sure many people will try to convince you of this shows many "positives" such as cute girls, and..... cute girls, and more importantly.....more cute girls. Fear not though for i'm hear to tell you this one gleaming positive in this pile of PTSD educing trash. There are in fact (wait for it) CUTE GIRLS. If all you want is cute girls then boy here's your show because this show has plenty of those. They might not have you know a personality but hey they're cute. Sadly though, this isn't like the first season where at the very least each new girl was worked into the story to make sure it didn't feel stale, no this time you have all of them from the start and boy just wait to see how long it takes you to want to kill all of them.

Maybe this show could have been better. Maybe if the show had desired to grow up and spend the all new 13 episodes of it's second season picking it's OTP and developing the couple into a relationship we as the audience could have fallen in love with and enjoyed watching grow to a climax and conclusion. Is that what happened? No. Instead as an audience what do we get? We get 13 episodes of "comedic misunderstandings" that try to be funny and replace any attempt at actual comedy because hey watching a guy fumble around end up in "scandalous" situations with so many of his Hera... i mean friends is what passes as comedy now. We also get the shows most egregious offence IMO which is it simple can't pick a couple. At least SAO of all shows established a couple (not that it really mattered) and most other good harem shows establish a couple. Then we as the audience have a reason to watch as we get to see the couple either spend the show becoming a thing (which is overused and boring but at least something to grab on to) or be come a couple and go through actual couple issues (which is harder to find but when found is rewarding). Both of these would have been better then spending 13 episodes in a fight between the main character who has no personality and is severely autistic with girls to the point that the girls could strait up ask him out and he wouldn't know what they mean, and the girls who are as interchangeable as the show itself seems to think they are given how much it pretends like the MC will end up with one of them.

This show isn't for me (if that wasn't obvious) but i genuinely mean this. If you found enjoyment in this show, i'm happy for you. Really i am. It means you still enjoy this type of series. I'm not the audience for this show and to anyone who (despite my comments in the beginning being on the sarcastic side) dose want more from their romance (because this show is romance don't try to tell me otherwise) then trust me when i say this show isn't for you either.
