Story-The story is generally pretty basic with a narrow storyline, of which serves as no more than a guideline for the character tomoki. Since this anime is -dare i say it- a slice of life the story is actually pretty small within each episode. Its fair enough of though, earning a solid 6\1O.
Art-The artwork is mostly centralized on portraying tomoki's awkward, hermit-like appearance, and it is spot on. The other characters are generally generic, but they play very little roles anyway. Also their is a lot of cartoon style artwork for comedic relief, and it does do well for shits and giggles. A strong 9\1O.
Sound-Their isn't even much sound thorought the anime, but the angst ridden pop-metalcore intro is really badass. The outro is pretty good too, due to tomokis terrible but kawaii singing. Seriously, it makes me shrivel with its levels of kawaii. sound is a 9\1O.
Character-The character is really the meat and potatos of this anime, and the only part that actually matters. Their is not much character outside of tomokis because the other characters are explored little. So, on that note, what about tomoki? Initially tomoki is really pitiful, pathetic, overall just really dissapointing. She squanders every oppurtunity to make friends and escape her cage. Plus, many of the situations in which she creates are so awkward they make you cringe. The writer obviously did not see the fine line between relatable humor and highly uncomfortable situations. However, there is a lot of funny brother sister moments that kind of alleviate this, but only somewhat. Despite this kind of back and forth rollercoaster the ending is highly redeeming as tomoki finally accepts herself and is happy with herself for all of the socially awkward teen she is. The ending is a little bittersweet as she doesnt ever make any freinds but as long as your still positive and hopeful (which will be a task) you'll see a lot of fullfillment in this and just...relief. Tomoki's character is a rollercoaster and for that, i'll give it a 7\1O.
Enjoyment-Its kind of muddled between shits and giggles laughter and cringeworthy awkwardness, so i'll only give it a 6\1O.
Overall-In the end the anime redeems itself, coming to a bittersweet conclusion after just constant an endless battering of confusion and dissapointment (of which is broken up with real comedy occasionaly.) i recommend you watch it and form your own conclusions, because it really is an anime that divides people. for me it, i give it a 7\1O, but again, you may love it or hate it.
