On the story side of this anime, I'd say that there isn't any story plot at all, it was just a guy who is a mangka wannabe, who has to take over the business and the story plot ends there when some odd buxom girl arrives in the scene and that where the food docu starts.......Let's face it, man, when the buxom girl starts to yap about Japanese snacks, you're no longer watching an entertaining anime but a docu....a very funny docu that is.
On the art side, ok so there isn't that quintessential knee high sock wearing bimbo, the replacement, some buxom girl in a Gothic lolita outfit, the only consultation about her is her big melons, hate to say it fashion-wise only Saya nailed it. Kokonutsu's fashion looks like something that's out of this world, Tou's fashion is that of some Hawaiian Haole whom them Hawaiians would like to feed to the Sharks. And You, more like some guy who should be in the farmlands.
Character side, I probably would have like Kokonutsu if he would be in a relationship with Saya, instead of an oddball like Hotaru, now Hotaru maybe entertaining, but I really can't imagine that an oddball like her would take a long journey back and forth everyday just to pester Kokonutsu into taking over his family business, now don't get me wrong even as an audience, I don't think that Hotaru should be commuting that long everyday just to go to Kokonutsu's place, I wish author Kotoyama should have put Hotaru in a situation where she gets to live with Kokonutsu and dad as most sudden girl appearance genre , at least she can keep on convincing him to take over the business and the ending- Kokonutsu agrees and she get's to go home and You get to work for her daddy. Saya, well she the usual childhood friend, but as the anime ends somehow the direction goes more on Kokonutsu heading towards the oddball Hotaru, frankly I can only pity her for being in a usual childhood friend position. Tou and You, they just serves as the comic relief, thought I would have prefer that Tou is cast as a hot cool guy rather than just Saya's punching bag.
Enjoyment side, it was enjoyable to a certain extent, especially when the focus is on Hotaru, sure there is that comedy element in it, but at time I would feel like skipping some episodes that were just too cheesy.
Since all that matters it the "Overall" I'm gonna give this anime a 6 as in "fair," the story lack a certain follow up where it ends when oddball girl comes in the picture. The fashion is only on Saya. Enjoyable as it maybe , some episode are just too cheesy, bust since the comedy live up to it, it really should have such score.
Btw this is my 1st review, pls bear with me.
