Dear god...ok

So I found this anime while on an amazon prime free trial, then my trial finished, and I finished it now (almost a year later). I can’t believe I didn’t even remember Sugar Happy Life till a few days ago! Fair enough,this is the first anime which I’m watching with a yandere character so I may not have much knowledge on this sort of anime but in my opinion it was really good!

Story 7: Yes, I guess not too much happens during the course of the 12 ep story (they’re together, someone gets killed, repeat) but we learn about some characters backstories and an ... ending that I didn’t expect.

Art 10: I LOVED this art. It’s so brightly coloured but seems dark too. I’d genuinely love to see more anime like this ( I haven’t seen much anime but from the ones I’ve watched I haven’t seen an art style quite like this)

Sound 7: I mean I’m not the best at writing reviews, nor am I good at musical stuff but I loved the Japanese voices, the op suits the anime very well and the soundtrack(I think that’s what it’s called) is cool

Character 7: Not much character development from what I saw, but my favourite character was shios brother, he turned into a better person because of satous ‘friend’ i think and I can kinda relate to him based on the backstory

Enjoyment 8: I don’t understand why I wasn’t that into it last year, now when I watched it I couldn’t stop and idk I just really enjoyed it

Overall 8: If you can overlook the age difference then it’s a really good anime. The last episode actually got me laughing (maybe I’m a psycho for laughing at a psychological horror..hah) but it’s nothing higher than an 8 because it didn’t manage to get me scared or crying, and idk why but that’s what I want from this sort of anime :)

(i’m on a reviewing spree even tho i’ve never reviewed before heh)

Let’s get straight to it, the thing everyone’s talking about, the art. I’m giving it a 5 and cause i used to be mean when i first watched it i would’ve given it a 1 lol
The art is not very flattering but i mean from what i remember it was made on a budget and i doubt i could make an anime even look that good.

I may be biased towards horimiya because i love the manga, but how they show the plot in this anime is amazing too. I love the characters, ... fell in love with miyamura cause...well...he’s hot.

This is one anime you can just sit down and chill with because there are only a few episodes, but that was enough to convince me to read the manga (it’s still ongoing as of now!!)

So did i like it? Not really i found it pretty boring. Would 10-12yos like it? Probably, this is what i would’ve loved to watch then.

This is the sort of 12 year old i would’ve wanted to be like, not some weirdo, who still hasn’t been in a relationship at 15, so from that pov i guess it’s not too bad a show. But comparing it to all the others romance anime’s i’ve watched it’s pretty bad.

I’ve never had these experiences irl but i’ve wished for them and i guess this anime shows experiences that could happen, maybe that’s the charm of it, ... it’s a very plain realistic ankme(maybe that’s why i don’t like it, i like extraordinary stuff haha)
