I'm really liking the cute vibes that this series has to offer in its first episode. =)

Yano is a kind boy, but his ability to get injured so often is rather impressive in its own right. At least he avoided the evil Truck-kun, but Wall-kun dealt the blow to him instead!

As for Kiyoko, she's very kind-hearted and really cares about Yano's safety and wellbeing. Her facial expression when her mind empties out was rather hilarious in a simple, but effective way. Just like with A Sign Of Affection, the artstyle used by Aija-Do looks really crisp and pleasing to the eyes and really fits the series nicely.

It's a laidback, but cute way to start off my autumn seasonals and I look forward to more of this for the next 3 months!

A nice wholesome anime. Art was superb, especially with Yoshida’s faces. Yano almost got Isakaied by 🛻-Kun but instead hit a wall and trying to live an ordinary 🏫 life. I do feel 😔 that the 👱‍♀️ didn’t get any 🍪 and Tanaka you bastard got two packages 😡

Not bad. Hopefully it doesn't get stale afterwards and also frustrating like Shikimori's not just a cutie.

You need to have a special state if mind to watch this. There is certain cuteness between MCs but main premise is absurd and every situation is overexaggerated even by anime standards.
I am not a big fan of art style but it's not a deal breaker. But male MC being not just clumsy but blind and retarded is a big issue.

@Myetx lol exactly what I was thinking....like this is beyond clumsiness. We're bordering retardation ( in as much as I hate using that word).

Is it just me or does Kiyoko's VA sound a lot like Kana Hanazawa? She nailed that Mitsuri voice perfectly.

Anyways, gotta say this first episode was lovely as hell. The way Kiyoko and Yano interact is really cute and I practically can't wait to see more of them together. It's simply adorable.

I enjoyed that quite a lot. The artstyle in pretty unique and the characters are fun. I think the blonde girl is my favourite, she is so matter of fact.

I hope we get to learn what's up with his eye soon, that going to bug me otherwise lol

Average, at least it's not the usual popular girl vs unpopular boy (or vice versa), I like the style!

What? A highschool romocom where the MCs don't sit near the window?! Now THERE'S something you don't see every day. I dig it.

Solid first episode. Plenty of funnies to chuckle at while also being cute and wholesome. Was worried this anime season was gonna be dry compared to the previous (with all the peak shows we got), but with such a strong start, I think we're gonna be alright. Looking forward to the next episode!

After watching the PV, this show was on my must-watch list: the artstyle is beautiful and it got a few giggles out of me. Thus, going into the first episode; I had high expectations but, regrettably, they were not met. The episode was fine. The artstyle lived up to my expectations (Kiyoko is stunning!!) but the whole flow of the episode felt a little janky: hard cuts and surface-level emotions made it hard for me to invest myself.

That being said, I loved the moment at the end when they were chatting on the stairwell and he revealed he ate one of the cookies! So cute!! I hope now the foundation of the show/plot is set, the other episodes will flow better and delve deeper into the pair's feelings. I like them as a couple and have high hopes for them.

S/N: did the bandage only being around his one finger bug anyone else? LOL

Art is nice even if the lips are weird. Humor is nice too. I'm just scared about the fact that we have a "unlucky"/"clumsy" character : it feels always so unnatural and forced for the plot, nobody's life revolve around misfortune, even unlucky people. I hope it is just used as a start for a deeper story and that the show doesn't stick to this.

It's episode 1 and it makes me feel like I missed 5 episodes. It just dumps you into setting where a girl is nigh obsessed with a classmate bc he gets injured a lot. Instead of being a reasonable person and asking him....or even bringing up the concern to a teacher....she has the bright idea to stalk him. Anime, amiright?

It's then revealed that she has a crush on him.............which might mean something if there was an actual reason given or better yet had some build up for it to be a good reason.

Despite barely knowing him well, she freaks out and runs down the street when she heard he was in an accident. Does she ask her teacher for more details before she does this? No. She just takes off. Again, she barely knows him.

Let's be honest here; he isn't clumsy. He's purposely trying to hurt himself. How is it clumsy to be looking straight at a pole and walking straight into it? No tripping, no distraction, nobody pushing you into it....and it's the same thing with other incidents with him.

I know it's fiction, but that sounds so unreasonable that it's hard to take this show seriously. It's adding superficial acts to make the story more impactful then what it reasonably is.

Even her own friend said there were other things in the world that's serious, yet the FMC can't even function at home well while thinking about him.

Cringe....like Twilight levels of cringe.

high 5/10 maybe, the art needs some time to get used to and the plot seems a bit too convenient, just not very realistic, all that forcing left and right makes it a bit hard to fully enjoy, but the romance is cute nonetheless, I guess

@ota92ppon

It feels very forced. It's said that she has a crush on him without showing any real reason for the crush or any build-up for the characters.

Then she hears the teacher talk about him being in an accident and instead of asking her teacher about it..........she decides to run to the hospital instead?

Maybe it could have potential if this show made her seem like she had a life without being obsessed with him from the very get-go.....this romance seems like it will be very manufactored and have other odd or exaggerated situations in the place of natural chemistry, attraction, and reasonable belief of love.

Thank you!!!

Yes, the main premise is exaggerated. She's curious why he gets injured? Well, instead of asking him she thinks the better option is stalking him. She hears he was injured but instead of literally asking the person 4 feet in front of her (her teacher) to find out the details........she decides to go running to the hospital....for a dude that she barely knows, yet is fixated on.

This dude isn't clumsy, he's purposely lazy to actually avoid things. It's like he sees a sign in front of him...and instead of taking two steps to the side to avoid it....he just walks into it. No distraction, no tripping, nothing.....he sees it and chooses to hurt himself.

Really like the animation style. Regarding the storyline, it is not my preferred type of anime. I like slice of life and high-school life, but it is a bit overdramatic for me.

This is cute.
The chemistry between yano and kiyoko is adorable & wholesome. I know premise is a little cliche but still enjoyed it.
The op was great as well. The artstyle and animation is well done and kinda fits the highschool element.
Putting it into my seasonal watch for my comfort show. A normal highschool student life begins.

Do we ever find out why he always wears an eyepatch? Is he missing an eye? It gives him a real chunibyo vibe. *Please* tell me he's not actually a chuni, acting out his imagined "curse"...

Cute premise, fun mc and just what I want in the story. And while the animation is great, the style is just not to my taste... I think Yoshida and others look alright, but Yano is just.... Hard to look at for me. Maybe this is like an acquired taste and I am just too much into the new polished anime style, but damn

A great series premiere!

I thought the writing was good, with a fun, lighthearted vibe that rang true and human. The characters are likable and funny without being too on-the-nose. When it comes to Yano's misfortune, xxx-Holic immediately came to mind, so I wonder if it's something similar where Yoshida is to blame (notice how her brother also caused some ruckus inadvertently?).

Also, I thought the visuals where very pretty. The character-design is gorgeous! It reminds me of Sonny Boy quite a bit. The two leads have a lot of chemistry.

Decent first episode. With numbers of beatings Yano gets, might be a bit much for some people, I already know someone who will have hard time seeing Yano get hurt himself, a show might not be for everyone. Also, definitely one of the premise that you'll do well not to think much, because with that much injuries, one will wonder how come Yano hasn't disfigure himself. No kidding when he said the he's strong, even though is slice of life, not fantasy. If you can get pass that hurdle, this series might have potential. The issue this can easily get repetitive and dull if it focused on too much slapstick comedy. Yano-kun need to develop his interest for Kiyoko as well and not drag the series with Kiyoko's one sided feelings. Also Yano, saying wanting to have friends and some fun, Is this going to be like Komi-san, about Yano-kun making friends? It will be also nice if they also focused on that.

First episode very nice watch, the animation style is really pretty and i cant wait to watch more. The highlight has definitely been the main character, she's just so caring and it hard to not like her. all this needs is some more side characters and this anime will really shine as a great slice of life anime.
