'GET POPULAR OR DIE TRYING' is the proper tagline for this anime. Watashi ga Motenai no wa Dou Kangaetemo Omaera ga Warui! or shorter words, WataMote, follows the life of a paranoic, young girl in despair; Tomoko Kuroki. SHE JUST WANTS TO BE POPULAR! What makes this anime particularly fun to watch is the mindset of Tomoko, which is very interesting. But I guess these kind of people DO ACTUALLY exist in real life. If I ever encounter one, I would like to be their friend(Seriously). Get to the PROS and CONS, now!
PROS:
+ Cute and unique protagonist(Tomoko kuroki is said to look ugly...really? She looks
...
darn CUTE to me. While she does not look anything unique, but her "mindset" or the way she thinks/her fantasies/her reactions can be fun to follow.)
+ Creative jokes which are geniunely hilarious (I've lost count the number of times I laughed while watching this...)
+ Epic opening and a cute ending song(an unexpected rocking opening accompanied by a cutely themed ending are pleasant to hear)
+ Rewatch factor is medium-high(This is probably only for me...but at one point, I think I would rewatch this, just for the funny scenes)
+ Take a drink, some snacks and chill(This is the type of anime that you should sit down and relax and don't require so much brainpower to think. Just Chilllll...)
CONS:
- Typical slice of life(nothing fancy, just your everyday life of a teenager)
- Latter half gets very dull. (While it was genuninely funny earlier, but latter half gets unfunny and quite lame.)
- Supporting cast are meh.(Tomoko kuroki is awesome, but supporting cast are boring. The LOL thing is, Tomoko's brother also have the dark eye patches...)
Conclusion: Watamote is a particularly fun anime to watch. Unique protagonist, some cool tracks to listen to, funny jokes but then got onto the FAIL side on the latter half. But even with all those flaws, it was worth spending my time on it and may be worthwhile to you(the reader) as well.

Love and Peace. Romance and Comedy. TigerxDragon. Toradora. The same guy who recommended me K-on, recommended me this anime. I still didn't believe in his taste in anime after his K-on recommendation that is, but after watching Toradora...I'm left speechless.
Pros:
-Cute romance
-Solid cast (Ryuuji has crept his way into my favourites! Taiga is also a good female protagonist, but I'm not really into Tsunderes, tbh)
-Excellent art and visuals. (Nice background scenery, good character designs; I love Ryuuji's character design.)
-Solid ending. (I'm not going to go into too much detail on the ending, but THANK GOD its not some shitty harem ending.)
-Several very memorable moments(first encounter
...
of Ryuuji and Taiga, some fight scenes and the ending was kinda LOL).
Cons:
-Highly predictable (I'm preeeeetttttyyyyy sure you know what's going to happen next, most of the time)
-Tends to avoid "progression" from time to time.
-Drama is too overdone. (Drama is a subjective thing, you'll either love or hate it, but when its overblown, it somewhat ruins the show. Thats just my opinion though.)
-Story is nothing unique (just your run-of-the-mill love story among teenagers, nothing too special or unique.)
Conclusion: All in all, a good romance anime. Brought down by melodrama here and there but I guess you can live with that. I highly recommend this to fans of romcoms. Even if you're like me(still fresh to romance and comedy anime), you'll still enjoy it.

This got to be ONE the dumbest shows ever made. That's just my personal opinion obviously and my bestfriend recommended this anime to me. Well, thank you for wasting my time. This is very first review by the way. But this show is so infuriatingly dumb I had to write a review about this show.
No Pros and ONLY cons.
Why?
PROS:
-None.
CONS:
-The four super generic girls are annoying as hell. Well, except for Mio, who is the most "acceptable" character in the bunch...
From most to least annoying:
...
1. Yui (I want to drown this retard in a toilet bowl.)
2. Ritsu (Ugh..)
3. Mugi (Thick-brows is somewhat ok -_-')
4. Mio (The most "acceptable" character in the anime, but that's all. Well, fortunately for her, she's NOT annoying like the rest.)
-Slice of life is not a bad genre (for me) all in all, and this show is pretty much slice of life. But still it's very bad.
-Moe-visuals are not for me. Background scenery were just passable but its not enough redeem the moe character designs which, again are ugly for me. Art gets 4 out of 10. The art section is highest out of the rest of the other scores in other sections, FYI.
-The show tries to be extremely "cute" or moe (When its not.)
-The humor here is only for the most simple-minded people (Because its so bloody annoying and very not funny)
-I love music in general; I play the guitar in my freetime and this is a show about music, but in all honesty, this show is HUGE insult to music. Majority of the anime consist of the girls just have their boring tea-time.
Conclusion: This anime is nothing more than a moe-infested trash heap that only caters to moe-tards. I'd rather rewatch Mars of Destruction than actually having to complete this. At least MoD was hilarious.
