That's not normal even if you're the shiest, most introverted middle-schooler. I want him to act like a regular guy instead of a person with low-functioning autism.For people who actually think like that, how would you want the middle-schooler MC to act in that situation? If those hundreds of social media posts about guys regretting not making a move and talking to their crushes because they're too embarrassed or lack the courage are to be believed, such behavior is extremely common. I don't think you understand how internal monologues work. You can't actually hear them in real life. Perhaps that's why the MC appears far more awkward and annoying than he diagetically is. |

The vicarious embarrassment I felt was too much for me to handle, but ultimately, not enjoying something I spent time on is my loss. |

The typo was just one letter, so it should have been patently obvious without further clarification on my part. And yes, let's definitely agree to disagree. It's just frustrating when people use "bad writing" as a shorthand for when they can't relate to a character or find them annoying, stupid, or unrealistic. |

| the camera movement was a little too much the girl forgetting her glasses when she literally can't see anything is a little too unbelivable but whatever lol i like how mc doesn't know if she is sleeping or reading :D girl is totally cute, and her eyes are quite shiny |
favorite "new girls" from summer <3 ... click sig for older seasons and more possible picks (rip all the other choices) |
| Komura kind of acts like a S.I.M.P. |
| This dude was already pretty horny, but did he actually let out moan when he slid his foot into his shoes which she was just wearing??!! Fr though he can calm down just a little. Dude has the girl of his dreams so close to him he can hear her breathe, and yet he's like "AAAHHH NO GO AWAY". Like yeah I get it maybe is a bit too much stimulation for you to handle, but I wouldn't mind if he'd grow just a slightly above average sized pair of balls than what you usually get in your standard highschool cute rom-com protagonist I like how they are drawn together, becoming literally close because she forgot her glasses. I understand the title now, because that’s what kicks off this relationship. Speaking of her forgetting though, were they going to come up with a new different reason each episode for her forgetting her glasses? Well that question was answered quickly with her stepping on and breaking her glasses. Maybe it’ll take a while for her to get new ones from now, and we’ll get to enjoy them spending some more nice up close and personal quality time. They really went to town on the 3d backgrounds and camera movement, as well as her hair. I like it. I hope they continue to use this style throughout. Her squinting annoyed-looking face is the centrepiece of this show, and it is amazing. 5/5 first episode for me. |

| The camera angle is a little too much for me and the movements look way too janky. The first scene where Komura is seen walking down the hallway especially his walking animation doesn't look too good. The hair physics remind of video game with how the hair is animated. I haven't read this one, but I'm reading another manga by the same author called "Tonari no Onee-san ga Suki" and it has tsukkomi and internal dialogue, like a lot. One of my most anticipated shows this season, here's hoping it's going to stay good. |

WilfredJohnson said: I’d rather this kid not be comically retarded, human beings do not act like this regardless of whether they’re going through puberty or not. 8 billion human beings out there, and not a single one can act like this? I'm not going to take that bet. You might find it annoying, but there are people who act like this. Not to mention, the very fact that it's a common character trope in anime already hints that people must be able to relate to it or find it endearing. Regardless, I don't understand why you're even using the yardstick of (perceived) realism to judge the character at all. In a medium with characters that run the gamut from aliens to robots and psychopaths to perverts, the nervous teen is the one who breaks your suspension of disbelief? |

The fact that it’s a trope is exactly why this show and shows like it are dogshit, if you can relate to that kid I feel bad for you That wasn't your point, nor is that mine. Shifting the goalposts + strawmanning + ad hominem... The classic trifecta. |
| I watched the first episode and I didn't like it but I don't know how it's complete story would be so I won't judge it just by the first episode. It's mainly targeted at male audience almost totally for male audience, A cute, beautiful and clumsy girl and a guy who has a crush on her and gets flustered easily, his behaviour is seriously cringe and tbh his behaviour was almost like a character from an ecchi anime. The girl was also overdoing the bad eye-sight thing, People can know the distance of anyone around them by voices. Both of them were kinda overreacting. It's animation is different (use of CGI) and in starting it seemed like of a video game but the later was okay also the camera angles made me dizzy. I dropped it after watching the first episode. |

Actar said: It was obvious. I simply highlighted the mistake you made, so that in the future, when you attempt to use big boy words in a condescending tone, you'll do so accurately. Yes, diegetically. The typo was just one letter, so it should have been patently obvious without further clarification on my part. |

Will be more careful in the future! Your so tautful, intellegant, and obsarvent. (^.^) |
| When I watched this first episode, I thought that the staircase scene we were showed in the trailer was all the spinning we would do. Oh how naive I was before the first episode dropped. Then I watched it.. there has to be a limit to how much spinning GoHands can do in an episode. The first four minutes in particular were burdened by extensive experimental shots, rotating the audience like a merry-go-round with the main characters as the centerpiece to the amusement ride. It doesn't help that they kept throwing experimental angle after angle in the remainder of the episode. Putting aside the camera work, the show started off about as I imagined it to be. The girl lost her glasses (which is her gimmick considering the anime title), and MC guy has to work around that. The guy definitely doesn't act like a giga chad, and the lead girl is blind enough she has to practically smell textbooks to read them. Welp, he's definitely in love with everything about her so at least she can always find support with him. The dodgeball situation was a little funny while it lasted, and it could be wholesome if more scenes like that pop up. The character designs are nice, the art itself isn't all that bad. I just hope GoHands can calm down for the rest of the season. |

| Decent first episode but I thought Kaede was a bit cringe when he would freak out when Ai got close and when he couldn't even wake her up when the teacher was telling her to pay attention (btw I can't believe the teacher bought that she was looking at the textbook when she was clearly sleeping, maybe the teacher didn't want to deal with her). At least Ai is cute and has nice hair. Hopefully Kaede matures, or at least gets used to Ai enough to not so easily freak out in future episodes. |
| Within the first two minutes I recognised this as a goHands anime, with that 3DCG staircase animation. It started out a bit cringe but I hope it'll turn good, like Komi-san and Bokuyaba |
 |
| that animation was so weird at times but i also thought it looked pretty good at times? idk. i'm confused |
| Good episode 4/5 Took me only a bit of time to get used to the animation. Good thing that I watched the trailer first so that managed my expectations and I am also currently watching Bang Dream! Its My Go with its cgi. Getting the same atmosphere from Bokura wa Minna Kawai-so with its color palletes and soundtrack. The story was also not new for me but I can still enjoy it. |
| as someone who wears glasses, the way she's acting without them is highly amusing |
 |
| Wow I love how they took all this effort to animate hair in such detail for a show like this. You don't see that very often. Mie-chan is ridiculously cute. A pretty simple generic story but it had me grinning. |

| As a glasses wearer, to the point it costs a fortune to thin the glass I can understand. That cheeky contact reference at the end though. Mayahps she just likes to sniff people. Smell is most defiantly 2nd out of our five senses. |
 To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
| The first few minutes were kind of jarring, but it's not so bad once you get used to it. It also seems to be much of what we're used to later on in the episode. This is going to a really cute watch, and hopefully kind of comedic, so I'm looking forward to it. I do hope the kinks get worked out throughout the season though because wth is this  |
 |
| I only made it three minutes and had to stop watching, it was making me nauseous. But I have serious problems with 3D sickness that have gotten worse over time and am feeling sick today, which always makes the worse, so it's probably not that bad for most people. I'd been looking forward to this, since the manga's so cute, but it's literally unwatchable for me. Such a shame. And yes, I can't play most video games either. First-person shooters especially, I start feeling sick within seconds. |
