| It's a slice of life anime, if you are looking for an anime with a plot, just watch Death Note or something similar! |

| Well, you rather like it or not. Like everything in life. |
| Nothing in this world lasts forever, and it´s time you accept that. It's better to not cling to these things that you will eventually lose. |
| not sure what kind of plot ur expecting from a fluffy slice of life romcom, but it does exactly that |
| I agree. The plot is nothing other than "oh look we went to the supermarket today" or "oh look we went to the jewelery store today". Usually a slice of life is supplemented with comedy or drama, or goal that the characters focus on. There are also no emotional moments. |

Exactly this show is the definition of bad storyline It is a series about a married couple living a normal live, what do you expect lol |
| It's a wholesome rom-com anime why did you expect there was going to be struggle lmao. |

| some people just like watching a married couple do cute things. I'd say if you like the story but think its to slow, read the manga. |

| Whatever. 10/10 for me. Definitely my anime of the year. |

TakiUzumaki said: I have watched first two and..i mean.. whatever they are showing is common imagination..i can imagine a lot more than this being a hopeless romantic. Judging by your profile, you seem to enjoy the typical shounen genre that's packed with actions and hyperactive protag instead of romcoms SOL like this. Well, we all have our own preferences. I too used to absolutely love shounen shows like DBZ, Fairy Tail, Death Note, etc. and despite anything tagged with SOL too when I started watching anime 4 years ago, until I got bored of that genre and actively looked for something different. I suggest not to dismiss shows like these yet, but put them into your PTW list. They got good score not without reason. You never know when or if your taste would ever change. |

| I think they should remove the shounen tag on it as it is nothing like a shounen anime imo. |

| You guys expect too much from things that are meant to be simple and cute. |

rohan121 said: I think they should remove the shounen tag on it as it is nothing like a shounen anime imo. LOL. Shonen =/= battle action Shonen is demographic, not genre. Tonikaku Kawaii manga is running on Weekly Shonen Sunday magazine. I assume you'll be suprise that Domestic na Kanojo Rent-a-Girlfriend We Never Learn Nisekoi To Love-Ru are all shonen manga/anime |

Blue_86 said: You people came in here with the wrong expectations. It’s a show about a married couple going through their daily lives cutely. This is not a show about overcoming monsters with super powers, and it’s not about the chase that comes in your usual rom com. It’s about cuteness and fluff and a married couple’s developing relationship. There is no story. Don’t expect a story. This is a simple sit down and relax show. I haven’t read the manga so I don’t know if it develops a story later on, but that’s what this show is at the moment. If that’s not your thing just drop it Not to be rude, but it just does exactly what it says on the tin and in my opinion, it does it pretty well. I think it’s a good show. Maybe just not your cup of tea. Shinuki_n_Reborn said: Oh yeah, lets watch a cute slice of life anime about the everyday life of a married couple, because i'm sure it will be filled with drama, battles and deep plot! You're for sure trolling, you can't be that dumb. Lol the OP didn't even mention anything about expecting some deep battle plot. The show offers little to no emotional value; it doesn't have any deep characters, the show doesn't invoke any "butterflies in your stomach" sensations that typical romance shows offer, it doesn't offer any comedy (the only "comedy" is when the couple act like they've never been to a sex ed class) nor sadness, tension, anger, surprise, delight, etc. that slice of life shows typically provide to an extent. There are no striking OSTs nor heavy scenes to really emphasize a point. You're just watching a show where a couple goes on, for example, a shopping spree with no real purpose. The show doesn't provide any guidance on how the audience should feel. Am I supposed to feel sad? Shocked? Delighted? Upset? Amused? How should I feel about the characters? What is it about them that makes the audience want to emotionally invest in their story? The show doesn't provide an answer to this. This slice of life doesn't actually address anything unlike other slice of life shows that put emphasis on at least one aspect. |
| That means you didn't like this genre romance comedy anime... The story is about young marriage couple doing daily life stuff.... I think you should check the genre before you watching it |

veryfriendlyman said: No hate plz, i watched the first four episode and it was boring. Nothing entertaining no struggle no plot. The joke are not funny and the main character over react. Why some people like this show? No struggle??? The MC struggling being a husband.... The plot? Story about young marriage couple doing daily life... Nothing entertaining? I wonder what comedy anime is funny to you... |

| I like it because it's cute and wholesome. If you're bored, you're probably too young to appreciate Slice of Life anime. We do not need crazy drama in every single show. When you get older, shounen action and romance drama tends to either wear you out...or you're rolling your eyes "because you've seen it all before and are tired of it." |

LMAO Definition of shounen anime A genre of Japanese comics and animated films aimed primarily at a young male audience, typically characterized by action-filled plots. So I at least expected action. |

| I don't really get the cute and wholesomeness part. It's pretty uncomfortable to watch and the character designs are far from cute. |

Haikyuu, Nichijou, Saiki K, Tonikaku?!?!?!? Just one search of the shounen genre in anime search will show that. |

Bloomberry said: Haikyuu, Nichijou, Saiki K, Tonikaku?!?!?!? Just one search of the shounen genre in anime search will show that. Saiki K has action and superpowers. Nichijou has hyperbolized action throughout and violence even if for humor. Haikyuu has action as a sport and competition. Tonikaku is what I claim does not fit shounen title I want to hear some shounen that do not have action or a action driven narrative. |

| the characters are quite boring, the plot is unrealistic even though the show is funny but boring, thus I agree with you |

| I barely got through two episodes, not just because it was boring, the characters and the way the series writes them (especially Tsukasa) going out of the way to say "OMG LOOK HOW CUTE THEY ARE THIS IS SO WHOLESOME 100 BIG CHUNGUS THE HECKIN TSUKASARINO BAMBOOZLED" every five minutes just annoyed the shit out of me. Don't get me wrong, I like cute shows, K-On and My Roommate is a Cat are some of my favorite slice of life anime and the main appeal of both series is cuteness and character dynamics, but Tonikawa just tries too hard and some of it isn't even cute, the MC comes off as downright creepy sometimes and Tsukasa feels like some incel's idea of a wife, rather than a character. Yeah, I know, I shouldn't judge a series I dropped at episode 2 so harshly, not every anime is great or even good from the start, but this legitimately made me cringe from beginning to end. |
| Who are you and why do you show your hostility towards a complete stranger whom you've not once spoken with before. Are you seriously asking to get blocked? Well, if that's what your intent is; to tempt me into throwing hands with someone as lowly and insignificant as you, then i may grant your wish provided you articulate yourself a bit better when trying to spite a person of my wavelength. |

I will admit Aria is a good example. I never knew that was even shounen. Lol. I usually consider shounen just anime that revolve around action based storyline though fighting is not required. |
