Both classic and unpredictable, this hilarious romance comedy isn't like any other and is a succes to what it is doing.
Never judge a book by the cover they say. Most of the time I don't agree with that sentence because most of the time, romance High school comedy are just... predictable, cliche, boring with characters that are everything but interesting.
History:
When I said classic earlier it was about the history. This is the story of Hikigaya Hachiman, a pessimist high school student which has a negative (but often true) point of view of high school life. We follow him and his club which goal is to
...
help people that ask us. He has no intention to go into that club and has been forced by his AMAZING teacher (You'll love her too).
That's about it for the story. Of course it's not a memorable one but those types of anime can't really create a unique story and we can't really note that.
The only thing in the story that changes is that the "cliche" situations seems to fit in more naturally and you never say "Yeh that's only something you'll see in a anime". They are both predictable and welcome.
Oh and by the way, I love the little twist at the middle of the anime. Really unexpected and welcome to add it withouth feeling forced.
Art:
I'm not a person focused on art very much and I don't really rate an anime with is art in mind. Unless it's something brilliant or very awfull I don't mind.
Yahari Ore blablablabla is "Okay".
Sound:
Op and ED are both good and I didn't skip them. Music in the anime fit to the situation (even if I usually hate sad music to sad moments) and are very discreet.
I really found the voice amazing with a lot of tones that differs really fast, good job !
Characters:
HERE IS THE AWESOME PART.
This is the strongest point of this show, and the most important one a creation should fullfill according to me.
You'll love all the characters, even Hikigaya Hachiman, the main male character/outsider. He has always that unique point of view that is pessimist but that also describe really well the real world. You'll love his monologue about the hierarchy of a class or the natural selection of people (I don't know if i'm clear).
He is both creepy and awesome, you know why he doesn't have friends but you also know that he is really intelligent. Like a real character, sometimes he doesn't know how to react with socials interractions he doesn't know, he is always CONSCIOUS about what he going on and he always stays true to who is is.
Plus he is hilarious and knows when a situation does look like one you would see in a anime.
Yukinoshita Yukino, one of the two main female character, looks like Senjougahara (Monogatari series). She has no close friends because she looks perfect: rich, beautifull, intelligent. However she is wayyy to straightforward which makes that no one likes her. She doesn't care about what people think of her and she is determine. And no, she isn't a tsundere, because she knows when she has to seek for help or anything else.
A really Unique and complete characters.
Discussions between her and Hikigaya are just hilarious, the two of them see the world differently and conversations are both hilarious and intelligents, just like Monogatari conversations too.
Yuigahama Yui, the second main female character is the glue that links everything. At first I thought she would be a a character on the back, but the more you know her, the more interesting she becomes. In a way she is the opposite of Yukino, but not that much. You'll love her too.
Supporting characters are excellent too, the perfect man, the otaku guy, the fucking teacher they are amazing. You'll burst into laugh with the reaction of Hikki towards the cute boy (Even more that the one in Stein's gate).
Enjoyment:
When I saw this anime I was always like "Fuck yeah". Finally a good romance anime that can make me laugh so bad and that has really strong characters (the exact contrary of clannad in my opinion).
I really think i'll watch it again in future days just cause it'll make me feel good again.
Overall: 9/10
I want more of this, I want a season 2, I loved it and i'll recommend it to anyone. I try to be as objective as possible though and the only things that disturbed me a little is that it's a perfect romance/comedy high school anime but it's still "only" a romance/comedy high school anime.
For me it's the best one so far (Toradora and Clannad are overated imo) and I'd love to see what comes next.
For all bakemonogatari fans, you'll love to look at that, and for others, you'll love to see strong characters for once.
For now, I'm out, this was my second review so please comment and give me your feedback !

Hello reader !
This is my first review and I've been wanting to do one for a very long time. I would love to get feedbacks on this review plz. THIS WILL ONLY BE ABOUT THE FIRST ARC (ep 1-14) and has no spoilers, just my personnal position about that show. Enough blabla let's talk about SAO. As a huge gamer (of all types of game) I was wondering why this SAO anime was so popular, so I just decided to watch it without any expectations. Like the synopsis says, we follow the adventure of a boy who is stuck in a MMORPG, Sword Art Online, that uses a fully ... |
