(POSSIBLE SPOILERS BEWARE)
Silver spoon was not that good and In my opinion I didn't find the first season as interesting. In fact I almost don't find it as memorable at all i don't even know all of the characters names for starters (But I guess that is just me). It is just another anime to me.
The main character is a typical anime type boy cliche, unrealistically happy like he has never experience mental pain before, the constant over exaggeration of simple gestures and as always to complete the trend he gets into "sticky situations" (uh-oh).
Yeah and I should mention that he is pretty much the focal point for most of the humor. At the end of the show it never really answers the question, which was what he did want to become when he was older? (he is in a farm school after all). Instead we got a lack luster response of him accomplishing something which is sort of irrelevant because I still got no answer in terms of the ending. But fear not there is a season 2.
Also The character development didn't click with me either, I kind of feel like the creators attempted to make us feel sorry for the main character and his "tough decision" at the end, I didn't really get it due to the sped up timeline and I didn't get the point of it (it was kind of silly if you ask me)
One of the worst parts was the humor, there was too much in the scenes where characters are having a deep 1 on 1 conversation on what they want to do with their lives, how their personality and morals are indicated through their work ethics and in the character development and then something "funny" happens.
Saying that there was "too much humor" is an exaggeration, but I guess all I wanted was a solid moment with 2 characters.
I guess you may find all of my other arguments nit-picking type reasons to dislike it but this is the one that annoyed me the most. THE FOCAL POINT FOR ALL POSITIVE EXPERIENCES REVOLVES AROUND FOOD!! (excluding humor to an extent).
It is annoying that basically everything links up to food. I mean sure they are in a farm school but why is it that hard for you to base the plot around something else, it is a farm school you don't have to show each and every character eating delicious food in every episode. They even have ongoing jokes about it with this fat girl who almost faints after not eating for a short period of time.
I wanna see something else happen like someone's dreams being accomplished or a taste of something like that (haha "taste", see what I did there).
Anyway there is a season 2 coming out so I am guess all that stuff about aspirations will be addressed later on!!
Anyway thanks for reading and of course it is my opinion but you may like all of this stuff
