record of first thoughts/ reactions after watching - 'sekaiichi hatsukoi'
hah!! that was one hell of an experience picking a random anime and starting to watch it.. - i got no clue what 'Sekaiichi Hatsukoi' means -though i just finished watching (because i don't like to drop any once i start watching).
PINK!! SPARKLES!! FLOWERS!! - a lot of it in there. If you like that kind then proceed also only if you can tolerate shonen-ai
__________
The set..
consists of young professionals working in a publishing company - there are 3 story arcs.
boys working on shojo manga(basically all pink flowers and sparkles) - and the general public has the impression that it is usually girls who are working on shojo manga.
I turns out most of these male coworkers hit on each other, even though there are enough female coworkers around. How can that ever be !! except in a manga - ofcourse the interesting part is that you get to see them toil over manga production.
____________
Characters..
characters make a story of their love life..
What you get see are a set of characters who are all:
- damn good at misunderstanding themselves and each other.
- have a hard time accepting themselves and each other.
Many times i felt like taking a baseball bat and try hit sense into some particular characters!! - well i don't really know even is that ignorant behavior was supposed to be part of the charm - if yes.. i wanna make sure i don't wanna watch one like this ever again.
There were atleast 2 straightforward characters: Takano(main), and well i can't remember the other one (not main).
_________
Humor..
The only good part.. I did laugh my head off at times.. thanks to the office scenes and work related issues - involving the main characters: boss and rookie (takano and onedaro) -- that was well done, i guess that's a part this show scores well in.
________
Artwork..
well not bad -- it's studio Deen - i kinda know what to expect, i m ok with it in this one too.
Overall -
it was a shocking experience to watch such romance in all pink and glitter(new to this kinda anime)
- and i think i could tolerate this series only because - wen it's " love" - i have come to terms in accepting those people however they behave. duh.
So ideally i shouldn't even be writing a review of this.
