| So hear me out. Everything about this anime is just *chefs kiss*. I’m not really fan of shoujo (the anime's genre is iyashikei I didn't know what it was when I wrote this comment) and I don’t think I ever will but seeing these three girls just enjoying life, normally put me in ease. Every time she smiles I smile too. And the anime, it feels so real. Hardships of normal life, just enjoying life.. And it is just that positive I don’t think I ever felt this good (?) after watching something. Definitely worth my time. |

I generally view every anime as an art of its own for different types of people.. this may not have been a chef's kiss for me but it was very beautiful and relaxing that I gave it a 9/10 .. however the way you perceive and enjoy it is all that matters .. that's why I never watch animes based on high or low scores and just see what seems to interest me or I feel like I'd enjoy |

It was hell of a journey for me. I hope everyone can enjoy this piece as much as me. As you said it is about how you perceive it. But after thinking about your response I thought yes this dude is absolutely right, we watch anime for enjoyment first. So while watching it you gotta enjoy it. Thank you. |
| I have to agree with you This one indeed is a piece of art , I've watched some iyashikei genre anime like non non biyori and a few others but this one felt totally different, there wasn't much talking and it seemed very realistic and that's something I can always appreciate .. the art style .. the use of colours .. overall it's a wholesome story I've heard that if you enjoyed Super Cub you should watch "One off" .. I think it's used as an advertisement for Honda motorcycles so it could be a bit similar in that regard , I haven't watched it yet but you could consider it in case you missed super cub , that one is also only 4 eps so it's not that long .. make sure to check it out |

| LOL yeah this was definitely one of my favs too. few last eps were kinda 🙁 for me but not so much as to erase all the positive energy i got from it before. it was suchh a nice show to look forward to every week |

Jayanthlovesanim said: actually it's more of a iyashikei rather than shojo and anime that lies in this genre generally tends to be very soothing and healing and yeah it was a great one tbh I'd like to give it a rewatch...thanks for reminding me you are welcome as I said I am not much familiar with female MCcs so I just said shoujo. Its my first time hearing about a genre called yashikei but thanks for telling me it(the genre) really looks like my thing For people who don't know: Iyashikei (癒し系) is a genre specific to Japanese works, primarily manga and anime. It is a sub-genre of slice of life, portraying characters living out peaceful lives in calming environments, and is intended to have a healing effect on the audience. The word iyashikei could mean "healing type" or just "healing" in Japanese. |

I won't say they were bad but they weren't positive enough???? Don't get me wrong I don't think it was any kind of bad and I enjoyed this anime's every bit but yes there was something missing. |
Count_PeSaka said: Couldn't agree more. This is the one time that I'm glad I tried watching an anime randomly. Super Cub surprised me a lot and got me into Iyashikei anime. Same goes for me too. If you have any recommendations on it I would happily watch them :) |

Definitely worth my time. Thank you so much for making this thread cuz I couldn’t agree more. I showed this to my friends and they just thought it was “boring” cuz they couldn’t appreciate the wholesomeness and happiness that can be derived from watching a few anime girls normally enjoying their lives. I never thought myself enjoying watching anime girls doing normal things either but I am really glad I watched it. And do not fear mate we are all gathered here to appreciate this wholesome anime 🙏 |
shawin28 said: Check out the manga too if you want. It has some extra/ skipped content. I liked the anime better but this is nice too I actually started by reading the novel. Sadly I could only found the translation for vol 1. But anyway I will absolutely going to check the manga too. |
Bartu55555 said: Wow, that’s quite a lot! I’ve never rewatched a series more than once yet, but Hyouka is one of the ones I rewatched because it was so good.triplepsycho said: I also really love this show, the only similar show that I enjoyed more was Hyouka.

Some anime are really that good, and it differs for person to person. |

salarx said: That’s true. I love rewatching but I’m afraid that if I rewatch something too often the novelty will wear off. If that wasn’t a worry, there are some things I would be coming back to every month.triplepsycho said: Wow, that’s quite a lot!

pipikapikachuh said: Of course! That is the whole point of the story, after all. So many of us casual viewers think this is just about cute girls on motorcycles, or that it is just an advert for Honda. But this is, of course, a classic coming-of-age story, and an iyashikei story. It is possible for something to exist in more than one of our silly genres or categories. Iyashikei is both a noble and well intentioned movement in art and literature; and it is a marketing category that exists in a capitalist entertainment industry. Super Cub may serve as a part of Honda's ads coinciding with the 100 millionth Cub being sold. (Yuru Camp is one in-your-face ad after another and completely intertwined in the outdoor recreation and tourism industry in Japan.) But these connections with real companies and the real economy of the motorcycle industry, are reduced to nothing in the light of a beautiful story about beautiful characters in a very real place in Yamanashi prefecture.I love Koguma's character development, from unmotivated to happy girl. Her changes also not too drastic so it feels realistic. Remember that "Koguma" translates as "Bear Cub". This story is about her, not about a little motorcycle. Her miraculous recovery from a poor, abandoned child without family, friends, or money, and her blossoming into an independent young adult capable of taking care of herself, is an awesome story that inspires us all. This is the first anime I ever re-watched immediately, and I loved it just as much the second time. It's also the first anime I've ever purchased as a DVD. I hope more people will watch and enjoy Super Cub. Perhaps if it is presented as a young girl's coming of age story, a story of friendship between girls where motorcycles are just a thematic device, maybe a wider audience will be inspired by Super Cub and the small moments of beauty in each episode of this little masterpiece. |
