Seihantai na Kimi to Boku

Next to Miyu Suzuki, a trendy and bubbly high school girl, sits Yuusuke Tani, a quiet and frank boy. Their interactions are brief, limited to Suzuki's unprompted random questions and Tani's succinct answers. Yet, beneath these simple exchanges, feelings of love are quietly blossoming.

Suzuki sees Tani for who he is: a straightforward boy who respects everyone equally, completely unconcerned about fitting in. Unlike Tani, she is too hung up on what everyone else thinks, desperate to keep her crush a secret. However, a slight misunderstanding leads to Suzuki confessing her feelings—and to her delight, Tani feels the same. Jittery with excitement, the young couple starts dating, embarking on a wonderful journey of friendship and love.

Preliminary (7/12 eps)

So unbelievably sweet. I absolutely love this show.

The characters feel super real and act and talk like real humans. There's some great lessons about relationships and just so many lovely and varied characters. Even the side characters feel so lived in and impactful. I super super super love it and its one of my favourite shows of all time already!

I love the animations as they really play with it to make the show more fun and comedic. Character facial expressions are great and super playful too.

Please watch it, I guarantee it will make you happy! Regardless of whehter you like romcoms, this show ... just has superb characters and writing.

Preliminary (6/12 eps)

Its so peak. This show legitimately will make you unable to stop smiling while watching. Even for those who aren’t huge rom-com fans, this showcases the relationship honeymoon period so well. Just kids being kids, and their ages are all believable from their behavior, which has become increasingly rare. The art direction and general style is very reminiscent of other masterful direction found in works like Bocchi the Rock, with a mix of 3d and 2d gags, making it never feel stale. You and I are Polar Opposites is the most relatable and grounded Romance animes out there. The characters aren’t destined for each other, ... but rather both exploring and enjoying their mutual infatuation. Even the side characters are a treat.

Mixed Feelings

Preliminary (4/12 eps)

A watchable romantic comedy anime so far. I wasn't inspired by the first half of the first episode- it was inoffensive, with a modicum of charm, but nothing to set the world on fire. Then, the anime decided to give the main couple more development than most romance animes manage in four seasons. For that alone, I'm willing to give it a 7. There's some solid comedy and the two leads, Tani and Suzuki, bounce off each other well. The art direction is colourful and eye-popping; most modern slice of life shows have an unbearably generic art style, but here, at the very least, there's ... some creativity on display. There's nothing profound or interesting going on and I can't imagine that will change down the line, but if you're down for a new romance anime, you won't find much better this season. I didn't like it enough to bother reading ahead in the manga, but if you're a fan of the genre, I'd say it's worth a watch. It's leaps and bounds ahead of the average rom-com slop with the pacing of a glacier. 7/10.
