Going into Yuru Yuri, I thought that it was going to a slice of life anime with heavy yuri in the middle of it. I was kind of right, and in the process, I found one of my favorite slice of life animes.
Story:
There is no real story in Yuru Yuri. It has that Hidamari Sketch feel where you just see the main characters do whatever comes up, talk to each other and just live their lives. Pacing is a bit slow on the first couple of episodes and they didn't get down their comedic timing yet, but it picks up real quickly. Depending on the
...
type of person you are, you're either gonna love or hate the fact that nothing really happens. Me, I personally don't mind, as long as I laugh, it's all good, and you're definitely laugh. So it's an 8 for me
Art:
Art is great, each episode, you'll find another sort of anime-y face which will make of course, make you laugh. It's pretty simplistic in it's art, nothing too amazing, but that's good because it won't distract you from what you're suppose to pay attention to, which is the characters and the interactions. The characters all have vastly different hair styles with a different hair color so you can tell them apart easily, which is good since there's 8 main characters you follow. Not much to say from me, just loved the anime faces they make, 10.
Sound:
The seiyuu's do a great job to match the voices of their respected characters. Whether it be aloof, a tsundere, or a pervert, they do the voices well and it helps distinguish their personalities. The background music is pretty chill and sometimes silly which fits the anime, so I have no complaints. The OP and ED is pretty damn good, both catchy and the seiyuu's do a good job singing them. To me, 9
Characters:
As said before, they're all distinct due to hairstyles hair colors and personalities. You've got your typical aloof characters, tsundere girl, dumb character, "notice me senpai" character and all the sorts, but one character sort of rubbed me the wrong way and that's a character who imagines yuri between two characters. You will either tolerate it or sort of find it uncomfortable which I did because the yuri scenes happened pretty frequently in the early episodes and was pretty long. Thankfully, the whole yuri imaginations slowed that and made it better by making it less. Other than that, I still remember all the characters, I can name all of them and they're all memorable. Just cause they didn't know how to make their characters work together, I give it an 8.
Enjoyment:
Definitely one of my favorite slice of life animes, great comedy, fun characters and I can always just go back to a random episode if I feel like just seeing it again. Anyone can jump into it if they don't mind seeing a bit of yuri. Enjoyed the songs too, both very catchy and worth listening to cause it makes me dance. Fun anime, 9.
